@APTNNews Every single reservation has a newer water filtration system on it. When are they going to hire qualified technicians to run them? Oh yea, as soon as they're qualified and can get a real job, they run as far away as they can from the reserves......
Speak with kindness? How about speak with truth. Why are you trying to bully people who were grateful for their residential school experience into silence? Are they "denialists"?
“Together is one." Chi Miigwetch to Knowledge Keeper Claudette Commanda of Kitigan Zibi Anishinabeg First Nation for opening the AFN Annual General Assembly with teachings, blessings, and strength. Her words remind us to unite, show love, and speak with kindness as we gather.
We extend our gratitude to Chief Greg Sarazin of the Algonquins of Pikwakanagan First Nation for welcoming First Nations-in-Assembly to the unceded, unsurrendered ancestral lands of the Anishinaabe Algonquin Peoples. #AFNAGA2026
@APTNNews The TRC report would become "denialism" then. It's got a section in it called "Fond memories" for those stories of the kids who were grateful for their school years. Murray Sinclair stated those stories needed to be heard too. Guess that make him and denialist.
@APTNNews They can vote all they want. There's a section in the TRC report called "Fond Memories". Murray Sinclair said those stories needed to be told too. This would make the TRC report "denialism" and Murray Sinclair and "denialist", lol! These indians crack me up.
Younger Canadians complain about us boomers, us boomers vote. We leave the comfort of our $multi million homes in our Mercedes. Cry me a river.
2025, voter turnout:

“You and your whiteness!”
The most racist region in the world is black Africa, and the most violent race in North America are blacks.

“In yet another case before B.C. courts citing the Province’s contentious “Declaration Act”, an ‘Indigenous’ {sic} community is alleging the Crown failed in its constitutional duty to consult and accommodate them. Seeking a judicial review before the BC Supreme Court, Lil’wat ‘Nation’ {a ‘nation’ of 2,299 people} is demanding a precedent the B.C. government argues would force preferential pricing for ‘Indigenous’ ventures and obligate the Province to shield their investments from market risks.
“The Lil’wat case is one of an unknown number of cases suing the B.C. government for not complying with its own {irresponsible} 2019 law, the “Declaration on the Rights of ‘Indigenous’ Peoples Act” (DRIPA).”

Canada’s economy is not healthy. It is being propped up by population growth, government spending and political spin.
The number that matters is not total GDP. It is GDP per person, real income per person and how much your paycheque actually buys.
Between 2015 and the end of 2025, real disposable income per person grew by less than 4 per cent in total. That is a lost decade.
Productivity is the bigger disaster. Trevor Tombe estimates that if Canada had simply kept pace with the United States over the past ten years, our economy would now be roughly $600 billion larger every year.
That missing wealth shows up everywhere:
Lower wages.
Weaker investment.
Higher taxes.
Larger deficits.
Fewer businesses.
Less purchasing power.
Canada did this to itself.
We blocked pipelines, slowed mines, delayed infrastructure, raised taxes, buried projects in regulation and relied on mass immigration to make total GDP look better than the lived reality.
I also believe Canada entered a technical recession. Real GDP contracted in the fourth quarter of 2025 and again in the first quarter of 2026 on an annualized basis.
Economists can debate definitions. Canadians are living the result.
Unemployment has risen. Purchasing power has weakened. Housing is unaffordable. Business investment is poor. GDP per person has fallen. Millions of Canadians feel poorer because they are poorer.
Canada now produces only about 70 per cent as much per person as the United States. Even with strong reforms, it could take decades to recover the ground lost since 2014.
At the same time, we must pay for an aging population, rising healthcare costs and much higher defence spending.
That means hard choices.
We need lower taxes on investment, faster project approvals, more resource development, serious spending restraint, healthcare reform and a realistic trade strategy centred on the United States.
We also need an honest debate about benefits paid to wealthy seniors while younger Canadians face impossible housing costs, higher taxes and mounting public debt.
I say that as a senior.
Canada’s problem is not a lack of resources, talent or opportunity.
It is bad policy.
That should make us angry, but it should also give us hope.
What politicians broke through bad decisions can be repaired through better ones.
The first step is to stop pretending aggregate GDP growth means Canadians are getting ahead.
They are not.
I look forward to condemnations of Hamas from @MarkJCarney@AnitaAnandMP & @CanadaFP. Canadians deserve an explanation of how the New Liberal Government is overseeing the 100's of Millions in aid going to Palestine making sure it doesn't end up in the hands of terrorists again
As far as I am concerned Leroy is innocent until proven otherwise. The torture conviction and alleged gun smuggling is nothing to worry about. We don’t need Leroy overrepresented in the Ontario penal system. These JB's commit the crime yet people complain when they go to jail 😖
@APTNNews I'll bet healthcare workers weren't asked for their side of the story. You can't conduct a credible survey with information from only one side. This is simply rage bait.
