I have heard that the clean water issue on indigenous reserves is due to the fact that the indigenous won't allow anyone but indigenous people to work on the treatment facilities and there are problems with the work the treatment staff are doing. Anyone else heard that?

@Tomr_Bourne @SteveB09904942 That's what I heard too. It was from a guy that worked in the field. If it is try then why are we always hearing about this issue if it is just bad maintainence?

@SteveB09904942 I have heard this for a decade. Most had systems installed and people trained but when personnel issues arose things would fall apart. Or something would break down and no one would repair it or have it repaired. You can lead a horse to water but u can’t make them drink.

@ericnuttall @Ianh17C Eric, in fairness, the UAE, which I have been to, is not the Canadian Rockies. The construction specifications are probably vastly different. However, I get your point and agree with you. The "red tape" and bureacracy in Canada is making us irrelevant.

The UAE is building a ~1.4MM Bbl/d, 370km pipeline costing ~$4BN USD, started in 2025 and onstream in 2027. Canada aims to potentially build a 1MM Bbl/d pipeline, to cost ~$40BN, take 8+years, and is tying it to an obsolete/costly $30BN Pathways project. See the difference???

@ericnuttall @SatireSquadHQ It is absolutely insane what the dumb politicians, elected by "childishly naive", urban Canadians, are doing to Canada. We need an effort to inform these people about finances, which they will pay attention to.

If the cost of a new 1MM Bbl/d pipeline is Pathways, a $30BN project conceived in a vastly different world that erodes our competitiveness, then I say nay. It took me 4 hours to get my 6 year old an ankle x-ray last night...we do not have to live like this, yet choose to. Sad.

A prominent Muslim cleric with millions of followers, Imam Saleh Al-Fawzan, openly declared: “If you deny the practice of drinking camel urine, you are an apostate, and it becomes permissible to kill you.” He added that killing such a person is a religious duty for the sake of Allah. This is not some random extremist hiding in a cave. This is a mainstream Islamic scholar whose teachings reach millions. How is the West supposed to reconcile this ideology with endless talk of “shared values” and integration? And why is there almost no serious public debate about teachings like these?

Approximately 85% of the world’s refugees are Muslims. But for some reason they don’t seek asylum in over 50 Muslim countries. They only want to go to non-Muslim countries. Any ideas why?!

Liberal Minister of the Environment proud that the Industrial Carbon Tax will multiply by 6! To accomplish what? To impovrish Canadians even more? @MarkJCarney is destroying Canada's energy competitiveness.

@jkenney @WBrettWilson @CTVNews @CdnPressNews When is the Canadian press going grow up. Enough of the BS.

@CTVNews Pregnant “people,” not women. I knew this was a @CdnPressNews story just from reading the headline. This kind of hyper woke nonsense is actually in their style book. A good example of why PostMedia made the right call to drop its CP subscription.

1 in 5 pregnant people in Ontario not screened properly for syphilis, new study says ctvnews.ca/health/article…

It's not racism, it's culturalism A culture that aims to overpower all other cultures cannot claim to be 'victimised' if people object If this aggressive culture soft-pedalled the beheading threats, people might be less alarmed by it

why defame sailors?

Canada is the only country out of the 10 largest oil producing countries that charges an industrial carbon tax We are not a serious country Only solution is to drop the Liberal party

@SteveB09904942 We need to become relevant again. Jagmeet and Trudeau were a "laughing stock" globally. We have work to do to restore our credibility as a nation.

Canadians are being seen globally as deluded, "woke", childishly naive citizens of the world. We need to get our act together and "get a grip". Canada used to have a very good reputation. What happened?

Sad.

Good question.

True

Accurate 😂
