Canada’s new fast-track laws are sidelining Indigenous consent and gutting environmental protections—then calling it “reconciliation.”
@janellelapointe.bsky.social breaks down why Indigenous communities—and everyone else in Canada—must reject this false promise.

Canada’s new fast-track laws double down on false promise of ‘economic reconciliation’ ⋆ The Breach
A swathe of new legislation across Canada threatens to weaken Indigenous rights and environmental protections
breachmedia.ca
This new legislation is terrifying—not just because of the environmental destruction these laws will accelerate, but because of the ways our sovereign rights get watered down to “economic reconciliation,” a mere assimilation into a failing economy built on our dispossession and genocide.

David Eby's version of reconciliation is essentially saying "We can do this the easy way, or the hard way"
Watching David Eby’s sit down on GlobalBC and gobsmacked by how clearly he is speaking about reconciliation only being possible through partnerships on resource projects and not through the assertion of our inherent rights. The tactic and threat of economic reconciliation is at the forefront.

I really, really loved how this episode turned out! I usually can’t stand listening to myself back, but re-listened to the entire thing because chatting with these three was just such a gift. This may be one of my favourite conversations, ever! Give it a listen and let me know what you think.

Took my phone out to call my Uber to the airport (I usually pop inside a store to do this but was at a park, so chose a spot close to others with their phone out) and somebody biked by and snatched it out of my hands.

The owner of the hotel took us out on the Amazon for the day, on his brand new boat, with a renowned nature guide free of charge. We saw ~45 species of birds, barbecued fresh fish on the boat, stopped for little jungle walk. This trip has been indescribable. A dream come true!

Look out BC! China’s LNG demand drops for 13th month running. Last week, Pakistan cancelled a huge contract to purchase LNG from Qatar (even choosing to pay a penalty) because they no longer need/want it -- the solar revolution is quickly displacing demand for LNG.

This whole MOU is based on lies. There's no such thing as "low emission" bitumen. CCUS does NOT work. Indigenous co-ownership IS NOT reconciliation. Doubling down on fossil fuels & AI data centres will NOT "lower costs." Both govts are putting corporations before the public interest. #CDNPoli #ABLeg

Notice how the difference between now and the Northern Gateway a decade ago is the weaponization of Indigenous co-ownership? Economic reconciliation is the tactic of our oppressors, and comes at the cost of our traditional economies. Solidarity with the Coastal First Nations resisting.
