@stsmamlt All of the above. LOL

Real Reconciliation must address the land.

[Khelsilem @Khelsilem]

A friendly reminder that any "Federal land" or "Provincial land" in British Columbia is land *claimed* by those governments, but the underlying ownership belongs to First Nations with title to those lands.

Senior governments need to return lands to First Nations.

May you have a gentle holiday.

The UBCIC is appalled to find that the Manitoba government’s decision not to conduct a search of the Prairie Green landfill citing safety concerns has been contradicted by a leaked feasibility study which concluded that a search could be safely done. https://t.co/AGrYq4rmpQ

Unwanted touching, comments on pornography and invitations to hotel rooms.

They’re just some of the findings of an independent investigative review on sexual orientation and gender-based discrimination in the Assembly of First Nations. | @saraconnorsaptn

@alex4salmon DFO can fund them to move the fish farms to land-based, closed confinement facilities.

@1Bob_Chamberlin @JustinTrudeau @undrip @MarcMillerVM @JoyceMurray @theJagmeetSingh @LisaMarieBarron @OttawaCitizen @ctvottawa @CBCOttawa @PnPCBC Yiláwél kw'a's hò:y (Thank you very much).

The PHSA "could not confirm whether Indigenous clients entering correctional facilities were provided necessary mental health and substance use services, assessed appropriately or if discharge care plans were in place for their release."

Recognizing unceded Indigenous territories is an honoured tradition that dates back centuries. Making the acknowledgement of the Indigenous lands we reside on and waters we enjoy is not only a spoken truth but an act of reconciliation.

@ellisbross I thought the Collective Agreements have been in place for about a decade. These agreements impact more than the health sector. What legislative changes need to occur to address this?

[Andrew Victor @AndrewCVictor]

“The court finds it perfectly appropriate for government decision-makers to account for the impacts of a proposed activity on Indigenous people’s spiritual practices and to reject that activity if it can’t accommodate those spiritual practices.”

BC is providing $23.4 million to 49 First Nations and local govts across the province to help reduce risks of natural disasters caused by climate change. “There can be no doubt that the climate crisis is here and our province is experiencing its impacts.”

Federal officials and First Nations leaders announced they will be closing fisheries and establishing a marine refuge along the Central Coast of BC.
