Because it's not about diversity, nor is it about equality. When under-represented the cause is systemic racism. When over-represented it's simply the best players getting what they have earned. White people can't be systemically discriminated against, and black athletes are just superior - but don't say that out loud like Jimmy the Greek, 'cause das raciss too.
The thing is, they did go to court and they won. The treaty allows them a "modest income" from fishing which means they are allowed to catch and sell. The real problem is that the federal government has done nothing to define what a modest income means nor establish any regulations as to how to fish while maintaining the stocks.
All that said, the lobster fishery the Mic'maw are engaging in is outside of the DFO season and there is no way to know if they are following any regs with regard to size or number, or really anything. The commercial fishermen are pissed because this directly impacts their livelihood and especially so in a pandemic. I'd be pissed, too. The feds need to get this fixed.
If every trip uses significantly more fuel it doesn't really matter if they are recyclable. The return trip of empty weight is pretty bad, too. Plastic is easy to make, light, and sanitary. We can burn them easily is we don't want them in the landfill and still be better than using glass.
A true environmentalist might have preferred to toss her plastics in a backyard burn barrel, which is much more eco-friendly than shipping them to China for incineration. Yet a bevy of bylaw officers would have beset that burn barrel, tut-tutting and ticket-writing with great moral indignation.
Thank Gawd I have a fireplace...
"Too many trans women of colour are being murdered"
First, how many is enough, Joe? Second, can you drill down a little further to score some more victim points? Maybe add "differently-abled" trans women of colour? Some trans women of colour are lesbians, you know. They feel like a woman in a man's body but they still like chicks. Yea, Joe should have said "too many differently abled lesbian trans women of colour..."
On the upside, were seeing clearly that if enough people stick together the RCMP really can't do anything. Watch for night raids to arrest the commercial fisherman. If that happens and the crowds demand their release, will the RCMP stand up to them, then?
Except Taiwan has very strict gun laws. For a long time the Kuomintang dictatorship was more worried about internal insurrection that arming the populace against communists.
Now find a Jewish guy for these girls
And I bet a lot of rednecks who don't think much of borders in prairies. I mean, it's not like the RCMP can stop 'em.
ps. and those democrats will be most welcome in the resettlement centres we create in Northern Manitoba.
Then Justin is all over it, or under it I guess.
