This sends the worst signal to the international community. Canada is a country that doesn't enforce the rule of law. Canada is a country that is not a safe investment destination. Canada is a country where a tiny paid minority of people can bring the country to a halt.





By Canadace Malcolm of Sun News Media



Country in turmoil

Trudeau missing in action




The far-left in Canada is out of control.



Deceitful environmentalist protesters claiming to speak for Indigenous people have set up illegal barricades across the country. They've blocked railways and highways — closing major thoroughfares, shutting down commercial and passenger rail and grinding our economy to a halt.



They are threatening the livelihood of countless blue collar workers, including farmers, manufacturers, construction workers, workers in the forestry, coal and energy industries and so on. And, according to paramedics in British Columbia, they're also putting lives at risk.



These protesters are as arrogant as they are destructive. They're throwing a temper tantrum and using the heckler's veto because they disagree with the results of our democratic process.



The Coastal GasLink pipeline carrying liquified natural gas from northeastern British Columbia to the west coast has already been approved by the courts as well as every level of government.



This includes the Trudeau government, who have always erred on the side of listening to First Nations and giving them veto powers over pipelines, as well as the left-wing NDP government in British Columbia, who have done everything in their power to block other pipelines from reaching Canada's west coast.



Perhaps most importantly, this project was also given the green light from 20 band councils along the proposed route.



This includes the elected band leaders of the Wet'sutwet'en First Nation, after long consultations with the company and a referendum within the community.



The fact that the Coastal GasLink project has jumped through all the required hoops is nothing short of miraculous. But even when a company does everything required of it, Canada still cannot get its act together to ensure the democratic will gets carried out.



To make matters worse in this situation, the mainstream media have distorted the issue and continue to use euphemisms to downplay the actions of the radical environmentalist left, calling their illegal actions "civil disobedience" and "peaceful protests."



While an overwhelming number of First Nations voices are in support of the project and the pipeline, too many in the media have described these as "First Nations protesters" and the "Indigenous cause." Even the CBC's John Paul Tasker pointed out the media's biased and erroneous coverage.



"I think we tend to do that in the news media, to go to one group and think that it represents a larger community," said Tasker. "All the Indian Act band councils — all 20 of them in the area — supported this," he reminded the audience.



So here we are, on the brink of a national crisis. The rule of law is breaking down, the economy is in disarray and any remaining confidence in our system is quickly vanishing.



Now is the time for strong leadership. We need our Prime Minister to step in and step up. He needs to show strength, make a decision and put this chaos to rest.



But where is our Prime Minister? Has anyone seen him?



Oh right, Trudeau is off on a vanity tour in Africa, meeting with local despots and bribing them into supporting Canada's bid to receive a temporary seat on the United Nations Security Council. Instead of showing leadership at home, demonstrating that he has control in his own country when it comes to tough negotiations and conflict resolution, Trudeau is off touting his $2 billion foreign aid spending and making clear his preference to deal with foreign affairs rather than his own domestic duties.



If Trudeau would rather booze and schmooze with world leaders, he should resign as PM and apply for a position in the UN. But if he wants to call himself Prime Minister of Canada, he needs to act like it. He needs to take control of this situation, intervene and enforce the laws of the land.

I aint as pessimistic as old Jock is. But, it's this kind of shit that feeds his hopelessness about this country. We can't have nice things in Canada. We can't build big projects, that is if they are in the West.



I got my farm, which is my kingdom. I don't have much faith in the country surrounding it.

I have supplies that come from Europe that CN carries. Needless to say, I'm not receiving them. My deliveries from Asia are hauled by CP and so far they are arriving.

I am sorry to hear that. There are thousands of businesses across Canada in the same predicament because the RCMP, and the OPP are not allowed to do their jobs.

If I can't get my supplies from Europe soon, I am going to have lay off some of my employees. It is that simple.

The millennial eco-activists stopping trains are the new colonialists



While so-called 'settlers' protest the pipeline, Indigenous leaders want the project that will bring economic prosperity



https://nationalpost.com/opinion/john-ivison-the-millennial-eco-activists-stopping-trains-are-the-new-colonialists?fbclid=IwAR0uw54Jj6AvMMGs3HvIjuWPL_SfT_x21lhEbvgbYxC1a5ZxyXhAggw_hJ0">https://nationalpost.com/opinion/john-i ...

The uber-woke protesters who blockaded a CN rail line last weekend would be horrified at being accused of cultural colonialism. But they are as guilty of telling Indigenous Canadians how to live their lives as any Father of Confederation.



The juxtaposition of the views of the eco-activists with those who actually live there couldn't be more stark.



Troy Young, a member of one Wet'suwet'en community, is the director of an Indigenous-owned company that stands to benefit from contracts to clear trees and build roads along Coastal GasLink's proposed pipeline's route.



He said the history of the Wet'suwet'en is of outsiders telling them how to do things. "Why would we accept it? If the environmentalists are successful, it will be one of the biggest cultural appropriations in British Columbia's history," he said.



(Five of the six Wet'suwet'en bands support the pipeline, while five of the 13 hereditary chiefs oppose it. Two of those five opponents have titles that are disputed after hereditary chiefs Darlene Glaim and Gloria George, who held the titles of Woos and Smogelgem, say they had their status "stripped" and given to two men, Frank Alec and Warner Naziel, because of their support for the pipeline.)



But the internal machinations of this particular First Nation are a distraction.



The bigger picture is that 20 bands along the route see this project as a way out of the cycle of underdevelopment they have been caught in.



As Smith put it: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I'm tired of managing poverty. I'm tired of First Nations' communities dealing with issues such as suicide, low unemployment or educational opportunities. If this opportunity is lost, it doesn't come back."



What right do the cultural colonialists who blockaded the MacMillan Yard have to say they know better than the democratically elected leaders of these 20 First Nations?
