The Trial Lawyers Association of British Columbia said Eby was “undermining public confidence in the justice system” and his comments “reflect a troubling national trend in which politicians use the courts as punching bags to score political points.”

BC passed #DRIPA in 2019, spelling out how the Province must implement the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. This ruling quashes the Province's attempts to evade legal accountability and confirms that DRIPA must be more than an empty political promise. #IndigenousRights #bcpoli
B.C.'s Indigenous rights law is legally enforceable, rules court
In a split ruling, the B.C. Court of Appeal ruled the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act (DRIPA) is an 'interpretive lens' through which B.C. laws must be viewed and measured

My husband does this. Scores points with the kids by saying yes to things he absolutely knows cannot happen because he knows I will step in and shut it down. But he gets to be the good guy who 'tried' while counting on me to wreck the plan.
In the face of global trade shifts and uncertainty, we’re working to build a stronger, more sustainable, more competitive, and more independent economy.
Canada’s MOU with Alberta will ensure we can advance that mission together.

People & right wing media will attempt to paint @stevenguilbeault.bsky.social as some radical environmentalist but for 8 years he has compromised and compromised on the climate science he is well versed in and drew a red line that Carney crossed. He is a patriot and should be spoken about as such.

This autumn, so many seedlings & seeds, more than enough to share. The strawberries esp have been busy spreading. Loads of chili harvested, too many to eat. The seeds all from harvested vegetables: cucumbers, peppers, chilis & chives. Dried & packaged for all. My giveaway shelf.
