Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will not move to take away provincial control of natural resources.
The issue of First Nations vs provincial control of natural resources came up at a town hall held at First Nations University in Regina held on April 13. It was a continuation of the dustup between the provincial governments of Saskatchewan, Alberta and Manitoba and federal minister of Justice and Attorney General David Lametti.
The Black Stain also said that he wouldn’t impose vaccine mandates.
The Black Stain said he would run small deficits.
The Black Stain said he would balance the budget from the heart out.
And now he is supposed to be trusted?
Exactly.
The turd also said he had no plans to increase the carbon tax beyond $50/tonne.
I always remember the Chretien government (or perhaps it was the short-lived Paul Martin government) of the early 90’s removing the Crow Rate which was to be have lasted “in perpetuity” to help the Prairie grain growers access the west coast ports in a timely and cost effective manner.
Every Liberal government (both federal and provincial) have consistently lied. Trudeau WILL take back the natural resources, because he lies!
I’d say there’s a better than average chance that the correct translation to this is “We’re going ahead with it, but secretly so that there’s no time to react after we implement it.”
The K-bec Kunt also said that UNDRIP wouldn’t be heeded and now its fcking gospel.
Then all the lies about the truth, Jesus wept. Like SNC obstruction being untrue to not being told by CSIS about Chicoms.
His whole life is a lie.
He’s a lie.
Speaking of natural resources, Alberta wind power currently (8:51 AM April 18 2023) producing @ 3% of capacity.
Liberals: we’re not going to do this thing we got caught saying we’d do, and we’re totally going to do it when everyone goes back to sleep
Also Liberals: the Conservatives are TOTALLY going to do this thing we got them caught saying they’d do (well, one TOTALLY not planted protester), and they’re totally going to do it when everyone goes back to sleep and they get elected.
EVERY.TIME.
Trudeau is a proven serial liar. His words mean nothing.
Damned right you won’t. It is unlikely that the country won’t stay together much longer in any event, but such a move would immediately dissolve it.
Will we ever be rid of this bastard Trudeau?
It isn’t looking likely.
The question isn’t whether we will be rid of Trudeau, but will we get rid of Ottawa? When you think about it, there isn’t much difference between the situation which caused the tea to be tossed into the harbour in Boston and the current situation…..the main difference is it was water between the “elite rulers” and the “colonies” rather than land, but the mindset of the “rulers” is almost the same.
I’ve been wondering when we might have a Boston Tea tossing event here. Never really had a revolution in canada, probably because everything is so far apart.
Get some blank tax forms and start a bonfire.
My great great something or other Uncle Jesse Lloyd tried one with the instigation of William Lyon McKenzie in 1837. He ended up fleeing in a dress across the border into the USA and died over there. Should have taught the family the perils of listening to a GRIT.

Today, the Government of Saskatchewan announced $300,000 in funding for the Saskatchewan First Nations Natural Resource Centre of Excellence (COE) to support two projects to help advance the Growth Plan goal of growing Indigenous participation in the province’s natural resource sector.
“The Government of Saskatchewan recognizes the important role Indigenous organizations will play as we continue to work toward growing Indigenous participation in the resource sector and this funding represents a step toward that important goal which will help drive economic growth,” Trade and Export Development Minister Jeremy Harrison said. “…..
“The First Nations in this province are not anti-resource development, but are rather interested in opportunities for responsible resource development,” Vice Chief Heather Bear said. “These projects are an opportunity to highlight how the Nations in this province can contribute to the resource sector, while at the same time, offer meaningful employment to their citizens. It’s time for inclusion of First Nations within this industry, and this is a significant step forward in meeting this objective.”

Trudeau to FN woman being dragged away by his security when she asked for the Liberal party to fulfill his commitment to provide clean drinking water on her reserve that is polluted by mercury….”Thanks for your donation” (with a mocking smile and tone as his supporters clap and whoop).

Justin is fond of treating women of every stripe like garbage.
Trudeau is stating the blindingly obvious.
For most PMs that shouldn’t be news.
Where is the reason in treating, treatying, a people based on long past conditions? We are no more like the white governors of centuries ago than today’s native Indians are to their primitive ancestors – “primitive” being the original reason for making allowances for them. These descendants of LWIBOs (Last Wave Of Immigrants But One) are in all respects average citizens – except that governments lure them out of the mainstream with lies and bribes, as is the case with any “plantation” demographic.
The axe should finally fall on aboriginal pretensions: bring back and dust off the 1969 Charest/Trudeau white paper and begin the end of Indian Act absurdities.
The Liberals/NDP won’t do that.
Resources are nothing special until someone makes something good out of them. Prairie soils didn’t feed millions around the world until the first hardy farmers started the resource utilization that we now take for granted. It’s the same with fish, metals, hydro power, fossil fuels, forests, on and on … No resource belongs to government nor to people who happen to live where it might be found; it belongs to the developer contingent on government and locals allowing access to it.
In a properly constituted nation there would be a right to resource development that could be reasonably regulated but never denied. In addition, royalties should never exceed the value of infrastructure provided to the development, on the principle that the resource has no intrinsic value – gaining value only when put to use.
He can’t take it away period, several provinces made controlling their natural resources mandatory to sign onto Confederation. He’d be opening the door via a legal challenge he wouldn’t win.
A legal challenge is just noise…..for example, Ukraine simply announced that it would no longer be subject to the edicts from Moscow when the USSR fell apart.
Justin rules by fiat.
I am surprised that he did not seize everything already.
You are relying on the 9 progressives in black robes to rule that the constitution says what it says it says, especially after the carbon tax ruling, What makes you think they will rule for the provinces?
The country club of judges simply won’t.
The Indian industry thrives on ensuring that the politics of grievance and endless negotiation prevents a peaceful equitable integration of the racial legacy and an end to the apartheid racial ghettos under the dead hand of the Indian act. The Spawn-Fuhrer is Chief of the Indian industry and along with the SCOC, has enabled the legalization of racial shakedown of resource activities on Crown land. The day that they declare Crown land as Indian land, is the day that Canada no longer exists and we can all stop paying taxes and go back to slave trading, inter-tribal genocide, etc.
The elites used the Cree, Assiniboine and Saulteaux a couple times before to ethnically cleanse parts of what became Canada.
The first time was when the aboriginals fought with the French in the French/English wars in the mid 1700’s. The French lost and the aboriginals could not return to their homeland so they started moving west ahead of the whiteman. The Cree, Assiniboine and Saulteaux had firearms so they cleaned the clocks of any arrow carrying aboriginals that they found before them.
Ruperts Land was investigated by British explorers in the early 1600’s and the decision was made to create the Hudson Bay Company in 1670 to exploit the riches of the Hudson Bay drainage basin. The French took the other parts of North America that became the American Mid-West.
The Cree moved into Saskatchewan in the mid-1700’s, likely as a result of the French loss of the French/English War and the start of fur trading commerce in Ruperts Land. The century prior to the arrival of the Cree showed money could be made in fur trapping. The Metis leadership took their aboriginal families with them as they settled in the Saskatchewan fur trading areas. These became the various indian bands.
The traditional aboriginals who hunted in the Saskatchewan territory were the Gros Ventre who followed the buffalo herds north during the summer. They followed the buffalo herds south for the winter. Nobody stayed in a tent on the bald prairie during a January blizzard. There was no food or fuel available.
Once the decision was made to create the border between the United States and Canada along the 49th parallel, the Canadian portion needed to be settled by aboriginals who were friendly with the British. The Cree fought the Blackfeet and the Gros Ventre to make way for Assiniboine, Saulteaux and later, white settlers.
Thank you for this dose of sense, Other Larry.
Wait, “back”!?
Justin is waiting for everyone’s guard to be down (or if Notley should win in May).
He is a horrible creature and needs to be catapulted into the sun.
Don’t take your eye off the ball. The initial issue arose when the Minister mentioned the United Nations and the First Nations in the same sentence without mentioning Canada or the Federal Government. They could bypass Trudeau altogether.
