    Federally funded National Arts Centre event to allow only 'Black-identifying' theatregoers

    Yeah, it sounds like it’s how you self identify instead of how someone else identifies you….Which means it’s open to everybody like a woman’s shower room.

    Air (or Error?) Canada. Our National Carrier…

    I don’t know what the answer is. I picked two random consecutive dates (31st & 1st) like a business meeting. Five years ago a couple (Husband & Wife) could fly both ways for a weeks stay at an all inclusive in the Mexican Riviera for much much less than this hypothetical domestic Air Canada...

    It is possible…but it’s not cheap. http://www.aircanada.com/ca/en/aco/home/app.html Here’s the same hypothetical, but they route it through Vancouver to get to Toronto from Regina For the theme of Air Canada not flying out of Saskatchewan (they do with their “Jazz” carrier):

    http://apple.news/APQHIOON0TcqcXK0rAEQArQ While there are some examples of federal-provincial agreement on climate change initiatives that affect natural resources, the more common pattern is for the federal government to act unilaterally rather than collaborating with provinces. What does it...

    Trudeau announces Amira Elghawaby as Canada's first representative to combat Islamophobia

    I forgot to post the link above for the citation of 48 churches. Went to pull it out and the next site says it was 68, which still is not a nice round number for you. That’s in a two month span (June & July of 2021). Sorry, 68 are burnt and vandalized, so 48 might still be accurate for just...

    Trudeau announces Amira Elghawaby as Canada's first representative to combat Islamophobia

    I thought it was almost 50. Quick google & I got 48. “It is unacceptable and wrong that acts of vandalism and arson are being seen across the country, including against Catholic Churches,” Trudeau said. But then added, “The anger … is real.”

    Let’s tear down 24 Sussex — and replace it with something we can be proud of

    For sure!! It’s a 150+yr old 34 room money pit monstrosity. Get a track-hoe in there with a revolving handful of tandem dump trucks and scrap it. Start from scratch for a fraction of the cost of the Reno’s without the worry of asbestos or anything else. For a fraction of the claimed cost of the...

    CRAZY: Justin Trudeau swarmed by angry protesters outside the Bread Bar in Hamilton.

    “We’re not going to let a handful of angry people interfere with the democratic process,” was Trudeau’s reaction at a Wednesday press event. The demonstrators mainly identified as standard-bearers for the Freedom Convoy, the protest that began last year as a reaction to federal COVID-19...

    http://apple.news/ApwCR84pzQs-hvbisdU3WYg According to a new Angus Reid Institute poll, a majority of Canadians would like to see the country’s official prime ministerial residence turned into rubble.

    NDP could pull support for Liberal government over pharmacare, health care privatization: Singh (a new twist!)

    NDP could pull support for Liberal government over pharmacare, health care privatization: Singh (a new twist!)

    Trying to reel in Quebec’s use of the notwithstanding clause might play well in some places (until people realize that it also takes away their own right provincially to use the same notwithstanding clause), but this is not going to go over well with most of Quebec, which happens to be where...
