“I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.” ~~ John G. Diefenbaker

FELDSTED: The UN Committee, on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, is targeting Canada because we’re too nice to tell them go drown itself. Most other nations ignore these busybodies


UN committee warns that Site C dam may violate Indigenous rights agreement.  Concern over 'alleged lack of measures taken to ensure the right to consultation'
The Canadian Press / CBC News ~~ Jan 15, 2019


A United Nations committee has warned Canada that continued construction of the Site C hydro dam in northeastern British Columbia may violate international agreements.

The UN's Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination says Canada may have already violated an agreement it signed 50 years ago. That agreement commits Canada to prevent development on Indigenous land without adequate consultation.

The proper response is to advise the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination that it has no evidence of racism, the accusation is unfounded and worthy of a slander action and to keep its nose out of Canadian internal affairs.

The United Nations has failed to deal with genocide and war, and is swimming in over 65 million refugees fleeing conflicts and persecution. Its claims of Canadian racism are not credible. The committee is targeting Canada because we are too nice to tell the committee go drown itself. Most other nations ignore these busybodies.

Canada is one of the 25 nations that carries 88% of the UN operating budget and we get calls for foreign aid, to support the world bank and to engage in peacekeeping services in return. We have far better uses for the multi-millions we pay supporting the United Nations for ineffective services.

13% of the UN member nations are carrying most of the UN operating costs. We are not getting value for our money. We need to drop our United Nations membership and invest public money prudently.

Abbotsford-Mission MLA Reann Gasper “This is a decision I have made after a great deal of careful consideration, and I believe it is the right decision for me, for our Party, and for the work ahead,” said MLA Gasper. “It has been a privilege to represent the people of Abbotsford-Mission, and I am deeply grateful to everyone who placed their trust in me.

NDP Sits on $61 Million With No Start Date for Burnaby Hospital

Phase 2 of Burnaby Hospital redevelopment  was green lit to go ahead in September 2023 The NDP spent $45 million on the Burnaby Hospital redevelopment, cancelled the second phase, and now has another $61 million listed for the project in the province’s Public Accounts, with no start date for construction. If the NDP cancelled the project, what is happening to the $61 million set aside for it? The Phase 2 project was expected to cost between $1.7 billion and $1.8 billion and was intended to expand the hospital’s capacity. With Burnaby’s population growing and residents struggling to access healthcare, the government should be investing in healthcare capacity, not leaving millions of dollars tied up in limbo. “The NDP spent $45 million on this project before cancelling it, and now $61 million remains listed for it in the Public Accounts,” said MLA Misty Van Popta, Shadow Minister for Infrastructure. “If the government isn’t going to build the hospital expansion, it should explain whe...

BC Conservatives Point to Warning Signs in BC’s Economy

While Canada posted modest job gains in July, warning lights are still flashing in British Columbia. Youth unemployment remains stubbornly high, leaving too many first-time jobseekers shut out of the workforce. BC also lost 3,400 public administration jobs in July, likely as temporary Census positions ended. “BC's jobs divide remains stark. Unemployment is far higher in business-driven communities like Kelowna (9.3%) and Abbotsford-Mission (8.3%) than in Victoria (5.0%). Government should be focused on creating the conditions for private-sector investment and job growth,” said Gavin Dew, MLA for Kelowna-Mission and Shadow Minister for Economic Development. “We need an economy where young people can find work, businesses can hire, and every region has the opportunity to prosper.” This comes as BC faces five straight quarters where more businesses are closing than opening, an NDP cabinet rift over job-creating projects like Tilbury LNG, and fresh signs that even the province's to...
