Today In (Insert Grievance/Cause Here) Industry News

Where would we be without these causes?:

I think this sends a chilling message to parents, educators, and people questioning their gender. For many young people especially, they turn to the internet as a way to self-diagnose if they are feeling uncomfortable in their bodies, for all types of reasons. Sometimes their discomfort doesn’t actually have anything to do with their gender. It is the therapist’s job to properly assess what is really going on beneath the surface – Are there other mental health issues? Is there a history of sexual trauma? – instead of simply giving the patient what they want. The fact that gender-questioning adults aren’t allowed to consent to proper therapy now is really alarming.

 


The Liberals may never have this chance to crush the populace underfoot again so ride with it:

Trudeau's Health Minister Jean-Yves Duclos has said that pandemic-related precautions may go on "months, possibly even years."

The health minister made these comments in response to a question about whether the Trudeau government will redefine "fully-vaccinated" for only those who have had a booster shot, according to Blacklock's Reporter.

 

Also:

The Bank of Canada has suspended without pay a Christian manager who pleaded for a work-at-home exemption from compulsory vaccination. The latest enforcement measure follows a landmark Supreme Court ruling that governments had no business validating religious convictions: “It hurt so badly. I just wanted to work.” 

 

Is this the same government that made criticism of Islamism a crime?


And:

Young men and boys aged 12 to 29 should no longer take a Moderna shot after millions of doses were already administered, says a federal panel. The National Advisory Committee on Immunization cited a rare but troubling incidence of heart inflammation: “Pfizer-BioNtech is preferred to Moderna.”

 

 

One would think that Big Aboriginal would really rip shreds off of this guy:

A Liberal MP who tweeted “every skinny aboriginal girl is on crystal meth” has been named parliamentary secretary for Crown-Indigenous relations. The appointment carries an $18,100 bonus to the $185,800-a year salary for MP Jaimie Battiste (Sydney-Victoria, N.S.): “Why do I assume every skinny aboriginal girl is on crystal meth or pills?”

 

Being a Liberal means never having to say one is sorry. 



Because "transparency":

Canada’s Crown-Indigenous Relations Minister says the federal government will soon release a volume of the residential school records it’s been criticized for withholding to a national archives centre.

 

The Liberals are desperate to pass the buck on this and we know why.

 

 

Let's start with Harrington Lake and work west towards what remains of Vancouver:

In his first comments in the new role this fall, Miller turned heads when he stated that “it’s time to give land back” to Indigenous peoples. It was an invocation of an established goal of Indigenous activists pressing to reverse the damaging impacts of colonialism in this country, one of the core aims of Idle No More and other movements since. And it was a statement with potential relevance to Indigenous nations across Canada, from the Wet’suwet’en opposing a pipeline project in northern B.C., to the people of Attawapiskat who are hoping to acquire new land for housing in their community.

Yet skepticism abounds, not least in Attawapiskat, where Gerald Mattinas has been pushing to expand the reserve to make room for the new housing. Speaking with the Star by phone on Friday, the Attawapiskat band councillor said discussions with government over adding the land to the reserve have led to nothing over the past seven years.

“Politicians are politicians. They can say anything …and then they forget all about it,” Mattinas said. ...

(Sidebar: bingo!)

But King added that there are many ideas about what “land back” looks like. These include literally giving land owned by settler Canadians to Indigenous peoples, as well as visions of establishing Indigenous jurisdiction over traditional land and the resources it contains. Some, such as the Secwépemc leader Arthur Manuel, have argued the return of land and the wealth it produces should serve as the economic foundation of empowered Indigenous governments.  

 

"Settlers" are citizens who made Canada what it is.

The economic foundation does not belong to the "First Nations" who are neither "First" nor "Nations":

 

Who is robbing whom here?


 

There will be no grifting in the Vatican until possibly next year:

Indigenous leaders and residential school survivors will not travel to the Vatican as planned this month to meet with Pope Francis because of the latest threat posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Final planning for the trip set for Dec.17 to 20 was interrupted by the detection of the Omicron variant in late November, which health experts are watching closely and has prompted countries including Canada to tighten border controls.

 

This Omicron variant:

Researchers at a major hospital complex in Pretoria reported that their patients with the coronavirus are much less sick than those they have treated before, and that other hospitals are seeing the same trends. In fact, they said, most of their infected patients were admitted for other reasons and have no COVID symptoms.


I'm sure that is the real reason.
