Grifter Avalanche
About the last thing Canada needs right now is more of these kinds of movements. Keep it up and it’s the economy that’s going to look like a rock falling off a mountain.
Kataquapit said First Nations youth are “starting a movement” to protect their cultures and lands from what they see as increasing encroachment by governments looking to build major projects in a hurry.
He compared both pieces of legislation to a rock falling off a mountain.
“You don’t know how much momentum it’s going to build,” he said. ”It might cause a mudslide and turn into something like an avalanche.
New Governor, Same As The Old Governor
Want to build anything in Canada?
Better check with the climate gods first.Under the Liberals, Net Zero comes before energy, jobs, or common sense.
Canada won’t lead in anything but decline unless this ends.
Call a non-confidence vote NOW.

Just send the referendum to the printers already.
In mid-May, Prime Minister Mark Carney said he would support “just doing one pipe,” but only if there was “consensus.”
When he was asked this week in Saskatoon about whether his vision for “nation-building projects” included an oil pipeline, he said that any such project would need to be filled with “decarbonized” barrels of oil — a term that seemed to confuse environmentalists and oil advocates alike.”

Blacklock’s- RCMP Would Enforce Bylaws
The RCMP and Crown prosecutors would enforce First Nations bylaws under private bills introduced yesterday in the Senate.
“Given that all First Nations have distinct legal traditions, cultures, histories and languages, the First Nations’ representatives explained from their perspective that federal, provincial and territorial governments should recognize the needs of First Nation justice systems are distinct from one nation to another,”

As if any projects like these would ever get greenlit.
Prime Minister Mark Carney, seeking to reduce Canada’s economic ties to the United States, on Monday met the heads of the 10 provinces as part of a push to slash the time needed to approve mining and energy projects.
Several Indigenous groups – who have a major say over natural resource development on their lands – say they will oppose any attempt to trim the approval process if it infringes on their rights.
What Else Is New?
Now that the Ontario government has conceded the moral high ground to the enemies of progress, one can expect these critical projects to flounder endlessly. If any protests arise, don’t expect any bank accounts to get frozen either.
Road, rail and mine blockades could be on the horizon, First Nations leaders said Monday, as they ratchet up pressure on the Ontario government to kill a proposed bill that seeks to speed up large mining projects in the north.
Provincial ministers, meanwhile, said they heard the outcry and will make improvements to Bill 5, but stopped short of suggesting they would eliminate it outright.
Narrative Uber Alles
Ahh yes, the tyranny of nice.
“Instead of the idiom of reconciliation or the idiom of professional journalism, you instead pretend that you are correcting on the facts, even though on some level they’re right and you’re wrong, but what you’re really correcting them on is the manner; you’re saying this is bad manners.”
Things You Won’t See On CBC
Hymie Rubenstein- “Residential schools still thrive in the U.S.”
From the beginning, there were two parallel education systems for Native children in the American West: government-funded and church-sponsored. There still are. But several such institutions remain extant and even flourish in Montana and the Dakotas and Oklahoma and beyond.

Can’t wait for the new Liberal public housing scheme to multiply these victories all across the country.
Blacklock’s- Bottled Water To Brush Teeth
Asked, “Do you ever use bottled water for anything in your household?” 57 percent said they relied on it to make coffee, 53 percent to prepare meals and 38 percent for “brushing teeth.” Cabinet from 2016 budgeted $3.6 billion to eliminate all First Nation boiled water advisories within five years. The deadline was not met.
No One Reads ANYTHING Anymore…
With the talk of secession since Monday it is of course inevitable that everyone is going want to have a say. What is also inevitable is that many of the opinions expressed will be ill informed.
You would think with treaty acknowledgements being in vogue that there would also be an effort to teach what is written in the treaties, but there isn’t. So let’s do it here.
Please take the time to read a few treaties in their entirety as they also list what First Nations receive in exchange for the peaceful surrender of territory; you see there are no limits on education or healthcare. Also remember that while seemingly well intentioned, the government of Canada did not serve the First Nations well. In some cases the provinces were even worse.
Another very interesting treaty is the Jay Treaty of 1794 that permits indigenous people to move freely across North America, living, working or going to school where they chose with all the rights of their chosen country, state or province, with the exception of voting rights which are reserved solely for citizens.
A Septic Field?
Well, They Wanted Self Government
Sinking Funds
If these goofs would bother to examine the history Port Nelson, it failed as a port because the river silted in almost as fast as it could be dredged. Even with dredging, ships could only dock at high tide. But there’s no limit to the futile experiments you can fund when taxpayers are on the hook.
Construction started but was marred by building challenges due to violent winter storms that beached supply ships and badly damaged the dredge used to deepen the waters around the port.
By 1918, the project was abandoned.
Lore sees using modern technology at Port Nelson including dredging or extending a floating wharf to overcome the challenges that stopped the project from proceeding more than a century ago.
Things You’ll Finally See On The CBC
@jonkay – For those following the bizarre afterlife of Canada’s 2021 “unmarked graves” social panic, we’ve hit a landmark of sorts. It’s now been almost 4 years, & CBC is finally admitting no graves have been found at any of the locations once identified by GPR tech as “potential” graves.
Audits Are Another Form of Genocide
Don’t question us, just give us the money. The Liberals don’t care. Blacklocks – Records vanished says audit.
Sins Of The Father
We didn’t make the new rules but hey if you did then…
CBC- Untangling Mark Carney’s father’s ties to Fort Smith, N.W.T., Indian day school
“A culturally retarded child in the context of the Northwest Territories is a child from a Native background who for various reasons has not been in regular attendance in school,” said Carney.
National Post- CBC unfairly attacks Carney’s father
But the attempt to smear the elder Carney backfired. What Carney’s writings and the interview provided actually suggests is that Robert Carney was a good man, genuinely concerned with both the education of Indigenous children and the maintenance of their cultural pride.
The Stupid Party
Canadian Conservatives, still punching themselves in the teeth to please people who will never vote for them.
This is the most despicable thing I’ve seen from John Rustad yet. And after the last two months, that’s saying a lot.
He knows that Dallas Brodie never mocked victims of abuse.
Brodie could sue him into oblivion but it looks his political career will get him there first. https://t.co/M7SP9O1qxE
