Pierre Poilievre’s modus operandi is to deny future generations of Canadians the same advantages that he had access to growing up. That also seems to be conservatism in a nutshell.

For over a century, major companies liquidated forests from First Nations’ territories without consent. Now they're leaving.

In their wake, First Nations are working to reshape the industry that long excluded them, but it won't be easy.

My latest for @thenarwhal.ca

What does First Nations ownership mean for B.C. forestry? | The Narwhal

More First Nations are buying B.C. forestry tenures. With old growth dwindling, can they nudge the industry to a more sustainable future?

We have decades worth of experience, endless supply of resources, cheap energy, why not invest in ourselves. Instead of sinking BILLIONS of subsidies from govt into fickle foreign companies, let’s invest in ourselves. And raise the price of exported electricity. I’d buy that:

Out here on the West Coast there are as many, if not maybe more, Mariners fans! Either way hate to see Canadians crossing the border. I get the fan thing but somethings are bigger. IMO #cdnpoli

Doesn't mean their expanded Bill gets Canadian approval. Plus they operate under limited arrangement and very limited authority now.

This. Conservative governments are deliberately starving public health care of funding so they can then declare the system is “broken” & institute private health care in order to extract profit — at the public’s expense of course.

Normally, it would be 15-20 minutes and up.

I’m a big Ronald Reagan fan” says Doug Ford. Reagan who was anti Social Security & anti Medicare. Just in case Ontarians have any doubt about Ford’s determination to institute fully privatized, for-profit healthcare ASAP. In other words Ford will happily force Ontarians into medical debt/bankruptcy.

They can pass whatever they like. Without Canadian govt approval they can not operate on Canadian soil. So lets not get all crazy over a US Bill that can not have any effect without our Govt say so. We have a lot of other more pressing issues to focus on then this nonsense! #cdnpoli #uspoli
