What’s not to love about a sovereign wealth fund where others are forced to pony up the seed capital? It also helps to imagine that such a fund could not possibly make anything but the wisest investments.
Chief Joe Miskokomon said the fund would be a “critical step” forward in bolstering the economic capacity of First Nations.
“We’re not saying to take out the banks,” Miskokomon said in an interview.
“What we’re saying is the banks don’t need to have as much as a say as they do.”
If you pony up enough money to the paleolithic set, maybe your project can go ahead.
Jonathan Wilkinson, a B.C. Liberal MP and a former federal environment minister, said today that “a number of things” would need to happen before the tanker ban could change, including discussions with the B.C. government and coastal First Nations.
Scroll down to see the Financial Post point out the errors in Eby’s arguments.
As the saying goes, you’re entitled to your own opinion but not to your own facts. Premier Eby’s objections to another Alberta pipeline are rooted in fallacies, not fact. The Carney government should recognize that and decide soon whether or not another pipeline to B.C. tidewater is “in the national interest” — which apparently is how you get a permit to build major projects in Canada these days.
Westgate Sentinel- Floss and Found: Oilsands companies bristle as Feds demand stringent string stats
“In the latest sign of the apocalypse, I learned today oilsands companies will have to report how much dental floss their workers use and dispose of to Environment and Climate Change Canada’s Federal Plastics Registry.”

I assume that if an Arctic hydro dam was a viable proposition, someone else would have already done it. But cost is apparently no object. In order to expedite that, a bitumen pipeline is going to get dropped from the list. What’s notably missing from the list as well is any mention of funding to complete a four lane highway across the country, which would finally put us on par with most semi-industrialized nations.
The Crawford nickel project in northeastern Ontario is also expected to be on the list, as well as Nouveau Monde Graphite Inc.’s mine and battery-materials plant project in Quebec, an Iqaluit hydro project and a major electricity transmission line in northern B.C., according to reports from CBC News and Bloomberg News.
It’s hard to imagine that anyone with a shred of moral conscience could face themselves day after day after delivering a judgement which brazenly excuses such psychopathic behavior.
Mr. Garlow is the personification of intergenerational trauma. I cannot imagine more sympathetic circumstances or mitigating factors that cry out for some compassion. Punishing him with a further period of incarceration for the sake of the common good would be unjust,” wrote Justice Brenda Green, who recently handed Garlow a suspended sentence and three years of probation.
The judge saw a “clear, causal nexus between his father’s brutalization in residential schools and the trail of damage and devastation that slammed like a wrecking ball through the next generation. I cannot imagine a case with a more shocking example of the detrimental impact of colonialism, intergenerational trauma and the attempted cultural genocide by seizing children from their communities only to be placed in horribly abusive environments.”
Dr. Byram W. Bridle- The Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s Bloodlust for Ostriches: Part 2
The most hypocritical aspect of this is that the people responsible for the deaths of hundreds of valuable, healthy ostriches that were almost certainly virus-free (prove me wrong with data), likely let their own kids play on beaches and parks that are routinely populated by ducks, geese, and seagulls, and stipple-painted with the feces of these birds that serve as natural reservoirs for the virus.

Blacklock’s- Anti-Labour Orders ‘Poison’
“We have been alarmed at the growing readiness of the federal government to intervene in labour relations, to terminate collective bargaining, to end legal strikes and to even outlaw legal strikes before they begin,” said Bea Bruske, president of the Canadian Labour Congress. “Ottawa’s readiness to intervene poisons collective bargaining. It encourages employers to expect and rely on government intervention.”

Fraser Institute- Eby bringing B.C. to its knees with Aboriginal land deals
Recently, British Columbia Attorney General Niki Sharma said that fee simple title in private property is superior to Aboriginal title. She’s a day late and a dollar short. In fact, her NDP government, led by Premier David Eby, has been doing everything in its power to have Aboriginal title triumph across B.C.

Pierre Poilievre is by no means the first person to raise concerns about RCMP covering up of Trudeau/Liberal scandals. And it’s not like there is a lack of evidence to take to trial.

At this point, I doubt that any measures are going to amount to anything other than flogging a dead horse.
Ottawa said the corporation is losing about $10 million per day, despite providing a $1-billion injection earlier this year to keep it operational. Since 2018, Canada Post has accumulated more than $5 billion in losses including more than $1 billion last year alone.
But Canada Post’s business model is meant to support communities across the country — especially those in remote locations who are hardest for private firms to reach — rather than chase profits, said Ann Armstrong, a professor at the University of Toronto’s Institute for Management and Innovation.
“There is something sacrosanct about a postal service,” she said.
“It seems to me the model is perfectly viable and needs to be preserved, if perhaps costs and so on need to be adjusted.”
That way you’re fighting Transphobia and Islamophobia all at the same time. It’s a win-win.
Blacklock’s- Demanded Fed Prayer Rooms
Cabinet advisor Amira Elghawaby lobbied government managers to install Muslim prayer rooms in federal buildings though only two percent of employees self-identify as Muslim, records show. Failure to accommodate Muslim prayers in business hours was “Islamophobia in the workplace,” she wrote in notes disclosed through Access To Information.

Blacklock’s- Ask MPs To Permit Digital ID
“To modernize and support enhanced passenger experience we ask that the government endorse system-wide border and screening modernization including immediate regulatory changes,” Toronto’s Pearson International Airport wrote in a committee submission. It recommended amendments to Secure Air Travel Regulations to “enable digital ID to be recognized.”
Regulations currently require that domestic passengers over age 18 carry government-issue photo ID like a passport or driver’s license. Pearson Airport managers sought “a comprehensive set of regulations to enable digital ID and biometrics.”
