“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

RICK PETERSON: I’d like to thank you and all our Centre Ice Canadians supporters for three significant accomplishments


I’d like to thank you and all our Centre Ice Canadians supporters for three significant accomplishments:

1. “Thank you!” for the strong support of Advisory Council Chair Dominic Cardy’s announcement last week that he’s leading a group that is launching The Canadian Future Party. If you’d like to learn more and get involved, please click here.

2. “Thank you!” for the strong fundraising support over these past few weeks. We have now raised the full $30K required to pay the final amount owing on the national survey that was a key factor in the decision to move ahead with the formation of a new party. 

As you’ll see further below, to fully wind up our efforts we’ll need to raise a final $3,500 for our last remaining legal and accounting fees - if you can help with that please Donate Here.  
 
3. “Thank you!” for your huge support over the past 18 months that has allowed us to host three policy conferences, listen to Canadians from coast-to-coast to coast, highlight key issues and voices that are important in Canada today, and take steps - by creating a policy and governance framework and harnessing the efforts of several hundred volunteers - to launching a new federal party. 

Our work is nearly done. Next Friday, October 6th we will be shutting down the Centre Ice Canadians website and social media platforms. We will be engaging an accounting firm to perform a final audit and financial statements, and once that it is done, we will be formally dissolving Centre Ice Canadians as a corporation.
 
None of the personal data we’ve accumulated will be shared with anyone. The Centre Ice donation portal as well as the monthly Centre Ice recurring donation subscriptions will all be shut down by Friday, October 6th at the latest, or as soon as the final $3,500 has been reached to pay our accounting fees. Again, if you can help with that please Donate Here.
 
Finally, next Wednesday, October 4th, I will give you a complete accounting of our activities, fundraising totals and expenses prior to us shutting down on Friday, October 6th.
    
With your support, we’re making history in Canadian politics. There’s a long road ahead, but what we’ve all done together in the past 18 months is truly remarkable and exceptional.
 
For that, our whole team at Centre Ice Canadians would like to offer our deepest thanks and gratitude.
 
All the best.
 
Rick Peterson
Co-founder & Director

'Very good news' that Supreme Court will hear B.C. mineral claims case, Eby says

The BC government needs clarity from the Supreme Court of Canada on a landmark mineral rights claim, Premier David Eby says. But the lawyer representing the challenger says that they would have preferred the province respect the lower court's decision. Eby said Thursday it is very good news that the court will hear its appeal of a ruling that found the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and the provincial mineral claims regime are "inconsistent." The BC Court of Appeal ruled in December that the provincial Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act, or DRIPA, should be "properly interpreted" to incorporate the UN declaration into the laws of B.C. with immediate legal effect. That ruling set off the appeal from the province amid concerns that it could cause economic uncertainty ... CLICK HERE for the full story

EBY OFFSIDE WITH NATIONAL INTEREST AS CARNEY AND SMITH BUILD BC'S ECONOMIC FUTURE WITHOUT HIM ~~ BC Conservatives

IMAGE CREDIT :  CBC News   Prime Minister Mark Carney and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith announced a landmark agreement today committing Ottawa to designate a new pipeline to BC's west coast as a project of national interest by October 1, 2026, with construction approval targeted for September 1, 2027. The deal pairs the pipeline with a new industrial carbon pricing framework and a fall 2027 construction start. British Columbia, the province where the pipeline ends, where the jobs would land, and where the export terminal would be built, was nowhere at the table. "This is a nation-building deal, and the BC NDP have been locked out of the room," said Trevor Halford, Interim Leader of the Official Opposition.  "While the Prime Minister and the Premier of Alberta were doing the hard work of growing the Canadian economy, the NDP is on the sidelines calling this pipeline a 'fiction' and an 'energy vampire.'  He chose petulance over partnership, and now BC ...

Kamloops - North Thompson BC Conservative MLA Ward Stamer speaks to Bill 20 — K’ómoks Treaty Act

The following is a condensed version of Kamloops – North Thompson MLA Ward Stamer’s remarks, to the BC Legislature, on the afternoon of Tuesday May 19th : I rise today to continue remarks on Bill 20, the K’ómoks treaty, and to address what I believe are some of the most important constitutional, democratic and governance concerns facing this Legislature today. At the centre of this debate are two major issues. First, unresolved overlapping territorial boundaries tied to this treaty process. And second, the growing legal and political consequences arising from the provincial government’s implementation of the Declaration of Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act, more commonly known as DRIPA. Much of the government’s defence on DRIPA rests upon references to the United Nations declaration on the rights of Indigenous Peoples, commonly known as UNDRIP. And this is where we must begin having a more honest and mature conversation in this province. UNDRIP was never originally designed to function ...
