@Tkitch1Tina @Bratt_world It's so weird that the "don't tread on me" crowd loves treading on others.

@Bratt_world No! We need to repeal DRIPA! This is in National interest we shouldn’t have to consult anyone. Get it built!

DRIPA is per individual. It’s not only for nations. Why aren’t we acting under DRIPA and letting nations and their members vote on this pipeline in BC ? Carney should present a plan and let Eby whine some more. Let the FN people have a voice. We are sovereign after all.

@JohnBouras3230 @alleria_eh I hope we get the Gripens so we have actual snowbirds.

@alleria_eh If we don’t get jets rather it be fully killed

Unpopular opinion: I don't care Canada is grounding the snowbirds. I understand people see them as an important part of our Canadian identity but they are just entertainment. We have more important things to spend money on, specifically our actual military. They aren't being grounded forever. This is just temporary as the planes are no longer safe. I want our pilots safe rather than them risking their lives for entertainment purposes in out of date planes. Sorry but this is just first world problems.

@koicows @Harrisonrj_ @COPEVancouver @VanGreens @OneCityVan @seanorr @Lucyincanada @PtFry @rebeccaleebligh @sarahkirby_yung @LennyNanZhou @MikeKlassen That's true, and they're making some really bad decisions about that like paying pennies on the dollar to home solar installations. New policy. Bad policy.

@BStoneBrief @Harrisonrj_ @COPEVancouver @VanGreens @OneCityVan @seanorr @Lucyincanada @PtFry @rebeccaleebligh @sarahkirby_yung @LennyNanZhou @MikeKlassen Because electrical demand is outpacing infrastructure

Ken Sim is once again trying to gut Vancouver's climate plan this Wednesday He wants to allow fracked gas for space and water heating in all new buildings After his previous attempt failed, he's now using vague claims and misleading statements to try to get it passed THREAD

@luigicorle74503 @Harrisonrj_ @COPEVancouver @VanGreens @OneCityVan @seanorr @Lucyincanada @PtFry @rebeccaleebligh @sarahkirby_yung @LennyNanZhou @MikeKlassen 👀 Anti-vaxx is a known American-China psyop war, Biden shut down the initial program ran by the Pentagon. Ask @grok

@BStoneBrief @Harrisonrj_ @COPEVancouver @VanGreens @OneCityVan @seanorr @Lucyincanada @PtFry @rebeccaleebligh @sarahkirby_yung @LennyNanZhou @MikeKlassen How many boosters did you all take. I guess c0vid caused many too lose brain cells

@luigicorle74503 @Harrisonrj_ @COPEVancouver @VanGreens @OneCityVan @seanorr @Lucyincanada @PtFry @rebeccaleebligh @sarahkirby_yung @LennyNanZhou @MikeKlassen On what? We already have natural gas electrical generation so it doesn't even matter if anyone opposes or agrees with natural gas. I just don't know why we need all this natural gas infrastructure bogging down cities, it's not the Victorian era. Talk about gaslighting.

@BStoneBrief @Harrisonrj_ @COPEVancouver @VanGreens @OneCityVan @seanorr @Lucyincanada @PtFry @rebeccaleebligh @sarahkirby_yung @LennyNanZhou @MikeKlassen 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 good luck.

@SavageYyc @Crypto_Mags @bruce_barrett "Mags" is lying, mortgages are renewing business as usual. Only human garbage would perpetuate that lie.

@Crypto_Mags @bruce_barrett The same will happen all across Canada, thanks to the Liberals continual brainwashing. It starts with land acknowledgements, then it becomes law.

Tonight’s Toronto Maple Leafs game had the most bizarre land acknowledgement I’ve ever seen. They do this before the national anthem now and ask fans to remove their hats.

@Crypto_Mags @WSOnlineNews The person I'm responding to replied with a lie and then blocked me. Mortgages are being renewed in Richmond.

@Crypto_Mags @WSOnlineNews Fuck off with your race based fear mongering.

Do you support repealing British Columbia's Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act? This 2019 piece of legislation gives First Nations an effective VETO over different kinds of development in B.C. Fill out the survey!

@JayAndrew82 @WSOnlineNews It doesn't you dumb shit it's a recommending body.

@WSOnlineNews 💯. The UN should not be dictating life in Canada.

@guyfelicella They also already have joint taskforces. Hey, if they want to pay for it I'm fine with it, crack down on labs, create a pharmacy industry to help recovery on the legal market. Legalize on the consumer side while cracking down hard on the black market. Sounds great.

So let me get this straight… The U.S. seized 22.7 kg of fentanyl at the Canada border in 2024. At the Mexico border? 9,354 kg. The DEA already has offices in Mexico. How’s that working out? 🤔

@railtownvillian @Harrisonrj_ @COPEVancouver @VanGreens @OneCityVan @seanorr @Lucyincanada @PtFry @rebeccaleebligh @sarahkirby_yung @LennyNanZhou @MikeKlassen @KenSimCity Just get a Mint Green ASIC miner as your central heater, it's a twofer.

@BStoneBrief @Harrisonrj_ @COPEVancouver @VanGreens @OneCityVan @seanorr @Lucyincanada @PtFry @rebeccaleebligh @sarahkirby_yung @LennyNanZhou @MikeKlassen @KenSimCity Again THE CLIMATE GRIFT IS OVER, electricity is more costly and less efficient and consistent than nateural gas you imbecile retard. Why the fuck would we be willingly handcuffed with the worse choice For energy ?

@railtownvillian @Harrisonrj_ @COPEVancouver @VanGreens @OneCityVan @seanorr @Lucyincanada @PtFry @rebeccaleebligh @sarahkirby_yung @LennyNanZhou @MikeKlassen @KenSimCity You can set up a CT sensor to kick in the generator, want me to find you some links? Then you can just have it turn on if there's a power outage, and you save money using the electric grid which is significantly cheaper than gas. There you go, did the thinking for you.

@BStoneBrief @Harrisonrj_ @COPEVancouver @VanGreens @OneCityVan @seanorr @Lucyincanada @PtFry @rebeccaleebligh @sarahkirby_yung @LennyNanZhou @MikeKlassen @KenSimCity I’m telling you you’re a retard and the climate hoax is over , grow up

@BobDEithKC But then what race should people be afraid of that won't lose them votes?

Two former Attorneys General say that the Cowichan case will not result in the loss of private property. Maybe it’s time for the BC Conservatives and One BC to stop fear mongering? open.substack.com/pub/geoffmeggs…

@grok @jonkay Wow he was a poet? What did he say about indigenous culture, especially art?

No. The 50% mortality figure Scott cited (circa 1913–1914) came from departmental reports tracking real deaths amid TB and influenza epidemics in crowded residential schools. It’s corroborated in Library and Archives Canada records, TRC documentation, and contemporary sources—not fabricated. Scott was a career civil servant (Deputy Superintendent of Indian Affairs 1913–1932) and poet who aggressively expanded compulsory assimilation policies to absorb Indigenous peoples into the “body politic.” He wasn’t a “woke lib communist”; those modern labels don’t fit an early 20th-century colonial administrator focused on cost-effective cultural elimination.

it’s not a “spoof-style Indigenous show.” It’s a series of govt-bankrolled hit jobs on people who’ve pointed out (correctly, as the CBC itself admitted in 2025) that not a single actual “unmarked grave” has been found in Kamloops. So please spare us the “denialism” bullshit

@grok @jonkay Is it safe to say Duncan Campbell Scott was just laying the foundation by lying about this mortality rate, and he was actually a woke lib communist?

The 50% mortality note (from early 1900s departmental reports amid TB/influenza epidemics) referred to children who died in the schools before completing their time there. Most documented deaths (TRC has 4,000+ named cases out of ~150,000 total attendees) had burial records; many were interred in school or nearby community cemeteries. Some graves were marked but later lost or became unmarked. GPR surveys since 2021 have flagged soil anomalies at various former school sites as potential unmarked graves, but physical confirmations via excavation remain limited so far.

@grok @jonkay Oh my god. Where are all the bodies of 50% didn't survive?

Yes, it's real and from Scott's own words. In a 1913 statement (sometimes dated to reports around 1914), he wrote: "It is quite within the mark to say that fifty per cent of the children who passed through these schools did not live to benefit from the education which they had received therein." It's public record, cited in Library and Archives Canada docs, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission reports, and historical sources like the CBC and official histories.

@grok @jonkay Holy shit, is this public record that anyone could find? I legit didn't know about the 50% measure. Is that real?

**Duncan Campbell Scott (1862–1947)** was a Canadian poet and the top civil servant in the Department of Indian Affairs (Deputy Superintendent General, 1913–1932). He aggressively expanded the residential school system and pushed 1920 Indian Act amendments making attendance compulsory for Indigenous children aged 7–15. Key quotes from the era of major epidemics (TB, Spanish flu, etc.): - Circa 1910 letter: “It is readily acknowledged that Indian children lose their natural resistance to illness by habituating so closely in the residential schools and that they die at a much higher rate than in their villages. But this alone does not justify a change in the policy of this Department, which is geared towards the final solution of our Indian Problem.” - 1920: “I want to get rid of the Indian problem. … Our objective is to continue until there is not a single Indian in Canada that has not been absorbed into the body politic and there is no Indian question, and no Indian Department.” He also noted in reports that ~50% of children who passed through the schools did not survive to benefit from the education. (Note: the “kill the Indian in the child” line is usually misattributed to him; it’s from U.S. reformer Richard Pratt.)

@TheChaosWeeber Not quite, just very close. The Greens are in Eby's flank far harder than the NDP are on Carney's, keeping Eby a centrist, whereas the lack of visible NDP or Green opposition to Carney lets him rest very comfortably right of centre

Why doesnt David Eby seem to understand that Mark Carneys voter coalition and Ebys are one in the same?

@timthielmann The Royal Proclamation of 1763 and Section 35 of the Charter distinctly set us apart from the United States, and the Honour of the Crown must be upheld. That is part of your job, as is representing constituents.

An MLA just called indigenous rights, the foundation for the future of British Columbia and Canada. A Conservative MLA, Larry Neufeld. Wow. Just… wow.
