“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 -- Our government is blissfully unaware (or ignores) the hypocrisy and severe damage to our economy


Oil companies persuade states to make pipeline protests a felony
By Bloomberg ~~ Aug. 19, 2019

After protesters disrupted construction of an oil pipeline in North Dakota by chaining themselves to construction equipment and pitching tents along the route, oil and chemical companies found a way to keep it from happening again; they made it a crime ...

... Bills criminalizing trespassing near oil pipelines, gas processing equipment and other designated “critical infrastructure” passed this year in Indiana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Tennessee and Texas -- building on similar measures previously enacted in Oklahoma and other states ... now pushing to create infrastructure protest laws in Illinois, Ohio and Pennsylvania.

American oil duplicity and hypocrisy
     
American oil companies have successfully managed to make pipeline protests unlawful in some parts of the USA. At the same time, they are funding pipeline protesters in Canada to do exactly what they are prohibiting in the USA.

Our government is blissfully unaware (or ignores) the hypocrisy and severe damage to our economy.

We are led by ideological moron’s incapable of questioning the climate change scam. The United Nations
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) theories cannot withstand critical scrutiny by qualified scientists. The evidence grows daily.
     
Canadian pipeline protests are politically and economically motivated. The objective is to protect the American economy at the cost of Canada’s economy. We need to:

  1. Shut down American funded NGOs creating and funding protest groups;
  2. Make pipeline protests that endanger infrastructure unlawful;
  3. Build a robust petroleum development and processing infrastructure throughout Canada; and
  4. When we are ready, turn off the taps to pipelines that feed into the USA.

     
American and eastern Canadian corporations have held sway for far too long. Canada must be governed for the benefit of all of Canada. Our governments have to adhere to the principle of equal opportunity for all Canadians irrespective of domicile. Their mandate to provide essential services, not to engage in social engineering.

RCMP gag order comes after BC NDP catch heat for diverted safe supply (Northern Beat)

In the wake of several high-profile police drug seizures of suspected safer supply that put the BC NDP government on the defensive last month, BC RCMP “E” division issued a gag order on detachments, directing them to run all communications on “hot button” public safety issues through headquarters in the lead-up to the provincial election. “It is very clear we are in a pre-election time period and the topic of ‘public safety’ is very much an issue that governments and voters are discussing,” writes a senior RCMP communications official in an email dated Mar. 11 in what appears to have gone out to all BC RCMP detachments . . . .

KRUGELL: BC NDP turns its attention from BC United to BC Conservatives

The BC NDP turning its attention, from BC United, to BC Conservatives was reported over the weekend from a variety of sources. It is the result of the surge in the BC Conservative's polling numbers and the subsequent collapse of BC United. The NDP has largely ignored the BC Conservatives, instead they opt to talk about issues directly or attack their old foes BC United. Practical politics says that parties closer to the centre tend to ultimately prevail over the long haul. They do wane but often make comebacks. A good example is the federal Liberals going from third party to government in 2015. Centrism has a lot of appeal on voting day. The NDP shifting its fire from United to Conservative is a reflection of reality. BC United did buy advertising online and radio over the last few months. Did that shift the polls back to them? Nope. The reality is today, the BC Conservatives are the party of the Opposition, and day by day the Conservatives are looking like a party not ready to fig

Baldrey: 2024 meets 1991? How B.C. election history could repeat itself (Times Colonist)

NOTE ... not the original image from Keith Baldrey's op/ed 1991 BC general election -- Wikipedia   A veteran NDP cabinet minister stopped me in the legislature hallway last week and revealed what he thinks is the biggest vulnerability facing his government in the fall provincial election. It’s not housing, health care, affordability or any of the other hot button issues identified by pollsters. "I think we are way too complacent,” he told me. “Too many people on our side think winning elections are easy.” He referenced the 1991 election campaign as something that could repeat itself. What was supposed to be an easy NDP victory then almost turned into an upset win for the fledgling BC Liberal Party. Indeed, the parallels between that campaign and the coming fall contest are striking ... CLICK HERE for the full story
