Are these lawyers high? “In the filing, a team of five federal lawyers denies First Nations have a distinctly Indigenous interest in drinking water, asserting that FNs’ interest in their own reserve land doesn't include water because ‘water is not attached to land, but flows under and around it’"

Liberals continue court fight against First Nations drinking water rights, despite new bill | CBC News

Few people ever find a niche passion that intersects with a niche talent and at an age when they’re unapologetic about both. Before the world says “you should be embarrassed.” He’s gonna end up being a world renowned ornithological researcher or educator.

Joined good friends and friendly strangers at an evening with David Byrne and band, a bunch of joyful and insanely talent humans who really know how to put on a show. What a delight in these times.

David Byrne, band, and vocalists/dancers, all in identical orange outfits, in choreographed movement around a stage, surrounded by a projection of the interior of his modest and colourful NYC apartment. They appear tiny next to the furniture and shelves of books and windows looking out onto the city skyline.

This is from a recent interview with our new Premier, who apparently thinks “skookum” is only used in the Yukon. I know he makes a big deal about being born and raised here, but apparently he has also never left the territory? 😂

Interview blurb reading: What’s your favourite “Yukon term” or expression? The term skookum is certainly one I use all the time, with a few different meanings. It can describe an individual. It can describe an article of clothing or a tool. If your hammer breaks, obviously it wasn’t skookum. I didn’t even know it was a Yukon-specific term when I grew up. I had just started saying it down south and had to be asked about it.

"The co-payment model is a scaled-back edition of the previous Conservative government’s failed attempt in 2012 to cut health care for refugee claimants from the “designated countries of origin” that Ottawa considered safe."

Here's yet another excellent test for Carney fans who consider themselves "progressive". This is literally a toned down version of a Harper policy. www.thestar.com/news/canada/...

The next dumb ass who exclaims, “But it’s a dry cold!” as we dig out from under already the third significant snowfall of the winter is getting a slap upside the head and a screen taped to their face so they can observe humidity readings from Environment Canada.
