Technically they are progressive. Just progressively impoverishing the Province. Luckily we get nothing in return.

There is also an irony with Barb trying to argue that we can't move forward while dragging the conversation backwards to play semantics for the end goal of making the bad seem just a tad bit less bad.

Barbara Kay: It's 'Dead Wrong' for Canada to call residential schools genocidal The cost to this nation of 'living within the lie' is incalculable. Yet, not one shovel has hit the ground in Kamloops, B.C.

The @nationalpost.bsky.social continues to platform genocide denialism. I don’t see the difference between Barb’s argument and defending a rapist because they’re a "nice person" otherwise or there was a mistake about intent. Both center the perpetrator over the victim.

There is something hilarious about BC MLA Steve Kooner complaining about being labelled a racist while making the removal of Indigenous rights and title part of his platform.

There is an old word to describe going to a foreign power and asking for their assistance in breaking up a sovereign country — it’s treason.

Ontario hospitals are cutting costs amid deficits, but say 'there are no easy choices left' | CBC News Ontario hospitals have already started making some "lower risk" cuts in the face of rising deficits, but those alone won't alleviate hospitals' financial strain, said the association head.

#Ontario public hospitals face large deficits, and their continued use of private staffing agencies drives up costs. The 2025 @policyalternatives.ca report "Hollowed Out" examined the crunch facing Ontario hospitals. @alonghurst.bsky.social www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

​The census has different questions for ethnicity and visible minorities.

That said, the race framing feels inadvertently colonial. ​By his own criteria, the groups that fit the definition best are the Inuit and First Nations yet the theory overlooks them to focus on post-settler dynamics.

Interesting take from @jj-mccullough.bsky.social but he conflates historical ancestry with race. In reality, identity is layered. One can be a white, Canadian, Newfoundlander. Or a white, status Indian. He is describing cultures, not races and the genesis of new cultures #cdnpoli #Sociology #CdnHist

“Canadian lawyer leads movement to have Alberta join the U.S.”

Here, in Alberta, they want you to believe that it’s about independence, not about becoming the 51’st state.

In the USA, on Fox News, they tell the truth.

If you were sincere about "explaining" Canada, you'd have learned the right terms and would know pre-confederation history.

You are happy to get views spreading misinformation. Sorry you feel personally attacked. It's fine to make money on racism and lies though. Can't wait for the next video!

How aboot you make videos aboot subjects you understand. Your misinformation is being used to support denialism and racism. Was the law too complex when the government used it for genocide or only now?

If the government ain't fighting thesr cases as hard nowadays then explain native child family services cases. Why is Jordan's principle needed?

"objective" opinions like this will only continue to fan the flames of racism online. Doesn't have to be intentional, ignorance is enough.

Calder was about recognizing pre-existing title which was never extinguished

The SCC jurisprudence is actually a very consistent and incremental process of defining the Crown's relationship

The honour of the crown is a real thing and the government loves that everyone forgets

His jumping around between Native American, Native, Indian etc.. uncritically is pretty telling on his failure to understand legal terms.

The white paper was opposed by more than "Indigenous elites" and the ownership of Indians in 91 still existed

Aboriginal title and right predate confederation

YouTube video by J.J. McCullough So what's going on with Indigenous rights in Canada?

This is so frustrating to watch. @jj-mccullough.bsky.social pretends to be an expert but doesn't seem to understand basic Canadian law and civics. It’s easy to dismiss the SCC as "confusing legalese" when you haven't grasped the basics.

Legal academics have a right to critique. But when that critique relies on erasing 260 years of history to frame the Constitution as a 'threat,' it becomes something else completely.

To be clear, Section 35 does not create the right. It affirms rights that already existed. Just look at Section 25.

There is something concerning about a lawyer and professor calling Aboriginal title - a constitutional obligation, a threat.

At some point we should expect some measure of truth from those licensed to practice law and teach law. How else can there be any faith in the legal system?

Aboriginal title—a national, constitutional threat Governments and courts have thrown property rights into turmoil, and the ensuing risks and costs affect all Canadians.

Bruce Pardy’s "opinion" is that Aboriginal rights "existed as of 1982." What happened to the Royal Proclamation?

When does "legal critique" cross into deliberate misinformation? Ignoring the inherent nature of Title rejects the Honour of the Crown. 🇨🇦 #CdnLaw #IndigenousRights #QueensLaw #LSO

Makes sense. If the last X controversies didn't matter then what's one more.

Ford admits 10% of calls on personal phone are government business. So why are Crown lawyers still telling the Court it’s purely personal? And why is Ford paying private counsel to argue that 10% is too much work?

It must suck to be a Crown listening to Ford stupidly and openly undermine the case

On the Doug Ford personal cellphone ruling:

The court says the decision should appear on CanLII soon. In the meantime, here is a PDF copy of the judges' reasons for denying the Ford government's appeal. #OnPoli

🗞️: globalnews.ca/news/1159745...

There is a kind of irony in Ford using a private legal team to argue that his personal phone shouldn't be searched because it's irrelevant to his job, while simultaneously claiming the search would take so much time it would "sideline" him from doing that very job. The Court called his bluff.

Classic Ford. He will figure it out later. After his very long break from work.

I think any leave would fail as the timeline is tight and the threshold is high. The Court of Appeal is unlikely to overturn a finding on the "reasonableness" standard absent a glaring error.

In a couple of weeks, this should be final and binding. Then the fun happens

Good decision but I curious what Ford will argue on their leave to appeal.
