The cliche’ about not being able to run a lemonade stand is getting a little old. 🍋
The auditor general has released a searing report concluding Indigenous Services Canada failed in numerous ways to supply First Nations communities with potable water over the last five years.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government was never on track to meet his campaign promise to end all long-term on-reserve drinking water advisories by March 2021, the audit found.
Since the Liberals’ 2015 commitment, there were 160 long-term water advisories on public water systems on reserve.
To be fair they were very busy not doing other things.
The white supremacist Liberals hate our indigenous communities.
Their leader is the PM of a genocidal nation according to himself. He won’t rest until the Liberal party has exterminated the last native Canadian.
it’s unfortunate that the “first nations” cannot figure out how to provide potable water in their territories, and have to rely on the incompetent nation of canada to try to solve a problem that should be well understood, since we’ve been largely using the same type of water treatment since 1905…
maybe we can deploy some more social workers to figure out what the problem is, and how to solve it
Cadillac Escalades and trips to Vegas. There, figured it out. Took me all of 30 seconds.
shut down liqueur and beer stores,and 90% of problems solved.
If they are their own nations, they can look after their own water supply.
Our reserves have 95% unemployment … full of strapping big men …. yet not one of them will run a backhoe , trench in a water line , solder a connection , hammer a nail , or cut lumber.
The only tool they know how to use is a microphone to complain they need better running water and more housing .
And more funding

Great video of Siberian natives living traditional except for use of old snowmobiles. Sign me up (on condition there are ice fishing holes). Also enjoyed the comments by Canadian natives lamenting how great it would be to live true to their traditional culture.
It’s not like there aren’t water systems. 75% of systems are in state of disrepair. They have to be maintained and operated and it takes math. Looks like a clash of cultures to me.
We had a communal system at the camp and treatment amounted to pouring some javex in the water supply. Beaver fever isn’t to be taken lightly so we made sure to keep the water treated..
We know what their priorities are. Expropriation of Canada’s productive classes and transferring the means of production firmly into the hands of a few thousand Bay Street bloodsuckers and their Chinese Communist friends.
Chief Big Screen is another idiot whose usefulness is coming to an end. Judging by previous experience, Canada’s future Chinese rulers will not think twice about kicking Big Screen off “his people’s” land to get at the resource wealth there.
If you’re taking an old dog out into the backwoods to put him down, you’re not going to make a detour at the pet store to buy him new toys.
One knows, one is not supposed to ask question like this.
How is it that there is problem with water, what did those people use for water up to 5 years ago?
How is it that they get all the money from the governments and can’t put together a water supply?
Would these questions be racist?
A socialist paternal state managing far-removed racial communist ghettos – what could possibly go wrong!
Almost every village o a hundred people or more in Alberta has a water system and sewer system maintained for a nominal fee each year. I have a water system on my private reserve and I am as poor as dirt. When I built a house, I made the decision that I wanted to crap in the house. I think the combined fee (30 years ago) for my well and septic tank system was around $3,000. I replaced the pump once and pumped out the crap a couple times for maybe $1,200 total. Other than the need for a bigger septic tank, I could probably run 100 families on my system. How the frig does it takes $millions to build and operate a water system? Follow two rules and everything will work out. Don’t shit where you eat and pour the chlorine to the water. In Edmonton 40 or 50 years ago municipal water during runoff was the colour of diarrhea. You couldn’t see the bottom of the bathtub. They just poured the chlorine to it and everybody survived.
The Edmonton water runoff issue was still there as late as 30 years ago.
I can tell when it’s spring break-up in Edmonton. The water smells of chlorine.
Think there is a generational dependency that reserve residents have been conditioned into.
Those that left the reserve have had to sacrifice their recognition as “status”. A factor that keeps the reserve system (and the bureaucracy) in place.
But I digress.
This is the second red pill this week delivered to the left.
The first was the motion on the genocide being perpetrated by the communist government of China and now this.
These events won’t magically turn every voter conservative nor will it improve the prospects of any the opposition leaders.
What is going to do is depress the liberals voting block.
If enough liberal MPs start to get anxious about the prospect of losing their seat, their may be enough momentum for a presumed leadership race.
The neat part in all this is that the damaging stories are coming from within the bureaucracy.
Well then I have a better cliché for you:
They couldn’t pour piss out of a boot if the instructions were printed on the heel.
Use it freely.
Edward, use it freelandly????
Tell you a story.
Some 12 -13 years ago, living in deep south west Alberta, needed a new stucco.
A guy well known and known for being good at what he worked on, got him to do the job.
He was off the reserve, don’t know where his helpers were, from or off.
Anyway, the guy was busy and I was glad that he agreed to do it.
Heh, the work took just about the whole summer. They were working abut half a day at a time when they were working.
They usually came with few dozens of beer, used it for their coffee time and that was the end of work for the day.
One day they, as it was their custom, having beer for coffee time, they left and forgot that they had the stucco in their mixer, it got hard and they had to go to the Hutterites to cut it out. That is what he told us.
Another day, one of the guys was so drunk at about 11 am, that he fell asleep as he was spreading the stucco. As he was doing it, he got lower and lower until he crouched against the wall and fell asleep right there.
However tings were, once they were finished, the actual job was excellent
What have I been saying? What have I been saying? O’Toole risks getting outflanked on a no-brainer with wide support.
Declare today job 1 as PM will be to ensure every person in the country has clean drinking water, it’s “what Canadians want.”
With time lines and guarantees, a contract with Canadians, an actual promise, with teeth.
Present good ideas, tell the public now, put people first. If the Grits steal them, fine, you put Canadians first. Say so beforehand.
That’s how you gain support and decisively win elections instead of allowing yourself to be outflanked by statists’ empty promises.
Ya gotta spend more. Get SNC to design-build-own-operate every water treatment system on every reserve.
The bureaucracy can go back to sleep
Socks can get new socks
Otoole safe in opposition
SNC stock goes up
Whiny you knowhos whine about something else
Beer at coffee time
The money provided for the FN reservation’s infrastructure gets diverted to more pressing priorities. Those are the the upkeep of the mansions for the chiefs and band councils. Also, the chief needs a brand new one-ton 4X4 with rear duals and all the bells and whistles every spring.
The chief’s driveway is always paved.
All the Grievance Indians voted for Juthtin because Juthtin promised to get rid of the Transparency Law for the chiefs…and he did…so go drink your own piss.
The “moneys” supposedly going to “Help the Reserves” is filtered through a beautiful bureaucracy.
The finest instrument of graft,corruption and theft.
Imagine ,if you can,the cost of all Bureaus supposedly helping our indigenous cousins..
Now pull up the number of “Status indians”..
Well that was fun,supposedly we have about 2 million people styled as “Natives”.
Indian and Northern Affairs claims they spent 18 billion ,year unclear.
Public Works avoids using numbers.
Corrections estimate about 1.2 billion per year to house natives.
Public Health also ducks and dodges..
Seems the federal scam of using the “Natives” as an excuse to steal is massive.
A large chunk of the parasitic overload,is funded by this lie.
So we know there is no hope any “problem” on reserve will ever be solved and that any persons on Reserve who attempt to do so,will be crushed.
That corruption the Harper Government sought to document,is a feature not a bug of “Government Help”.
If we believed any of our BS about human rights ,we would cancel all the “Help” and make cash payment to the so called special people,once and then they are free.
Free to be citizens at last.
The Prime Minister of Canada is an asshole.
When Brian Mulroney was in government Indian Affairs was responsible for administering all funds to the reserves …. with some wisdom he dismantled the bureaucracy and paid the lump sum to the band chief once a year,
He knew there would be corruption …. he knew there would be favoritism toward friends and family of the chief …. and others would be left out. He knew there would be endless problems.
But the point was now those Indians now had to blame themselves and blame each other …. previously they conveniently blamed the white man for everything.
Now you know why some of them have lavish homes in Vegas and drive Escalades … meanwhile other reserve members have shacks with dirt floors.
I have never seen whites hate Indians …. but sure see a lot of Indians who hate Indians …. its always been that way.
Talking of racialized people, how can one be a “Black Cherokee”, isn’t that rather like being a sober Irishman/Scotsman/Judge/take-out-pick.
Someday, the people will wake up and realize they have been lulled to sleep, not woke.
The Australian version is the annual “closing the gap” report, where the Govt describes how it has again spent billions failing to meet fluffy targets , while letting a myriad of real abuses roll on relentlessly.
No government of any persuasion has moved on this, Liberal or Conservative.
Why would they? The voters they need to hold power don’t come from reserves. Or western Canada. Or rural Canada.
We need a Crown monopoly. The Canadian Waterboard… well, maybe, “Water Board”…
