GOOD. Premiers using the notwithstanding clause to take our rights away whenever we prove to be ideologically inconvenient is wrong. What is our democracy then?

Hadn’t heard anything about this in a while. I hope this helps her family, friends and community get the answers everyone needs.
RCMP in Saskatchewan have charged a man with manslaughter with a firearm and careless use of a firearm in the shooting death of Tanya Myers outside Weyburn on Highway 39. He is to make a court appearance tomorrow in Regina. Mounties are also planning to take questions from media tomorrow.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.
