Capitalism only does the right then when it doesn’t cost them. As soon as there’s a real cost, doing the right thing goes down the drain.

How?

The first federal carbon tax was enacted in 2018, but a few provinces had started (and sometimes ended) their own versions as early as 2007.

Not really. Six Indigenous people were killed by Canadian cops in 15 days. Source

“If the proportion of Indigenous people killed by police was put into the terms of the general population, it would equal 127 Canadians killed by police in two weeks.” Brandi Morin

Good.

Are you saying that Palestinians had a role in 9/11?

Guess you’re not qualified to be a judge in Canada then.

“The Youth Criminal Justice Act has a different type of sentencing than adults, and if there’s anything that I hope, I hope that people realize that we do treat 13-year-olds different than we treat anyone who is 18 or over.”

… the lack of self-evidence is an inherent weakness of the scheme which allows the cons to easily weaponize it

That is a weakness in Cons, not the carbon tax. Can you list 5 positive planks in the Con platform that promise universal benefits to all of us?

(Brandi) Morin made a critical point during her speech. If the proportion of Indigenous people killed by police was put into the terms of the general population, it would equal 127 Canadians killed by police in two weeks.

And silence from main street news.

This country sucks.

I wish that happened in Winnipeg. Problem is our NDP gov’t is currently trying to clean up the deficit hell-hole the Cons left us with.

… and experienced institutional malfeasance while in custody, such as being forced to strip naked during searches.

I wanna know which guards were involved in strip searching a 13 yr old girl … and what action was taken against them.

Harper is a manipulative asshole and the further he’s away from Canadian politics, the better off we’ll be.

Just like what people are saying about another 4 years with Trump - that it will be exponentially worse because he’s learned from some of his mistakes - the same goes for Harper. I mean he’s joined with a venture capitalist (AWZ Ventures) that “invests in Israeli cybersecurity, intelligence and physical security technologies” … with “former leaders of three major intelligence agencies — the Mossad, the CIA and MI5”.

The Breach has a great article on what AWZ Ventures is currently into.
