An extra segment of debate in the @HoCChamber occurred for Bill #C42 tonight and here's a short thread with my reaction: #cdnpoli #endsnowwashing
Man, we succeeded in branding. Almost every elected official who spoke referred to Canada's AML regime weakness as snow-washing. There was also recognition that 45bn to 113 bn annually is being laundered into #Canada. Our work was heavily referenced by all parties.
On 25% vs 10%: This is better suited for study during the PCMLTFA hearings this summer. Yes, it could be possible to reduce the threshold in the bill, yet there would be a lot of pushback from Canada's business community and by FINTRAC reporting entities. Not worth it.

🇨🇦 Plusieurs feux de forêt au #Canada allumés de façon synchronisée et volontaire ?

C'est ce que montrerait cette vidéo, partagée par plusieurs comptes climatosceptiques.

En réalité, ce phénomène a une cause naturelle simple : un orage. 🧵 (1/10)
D'abord, d'où proviennent ces images ?

La vidéo révèle deux indices : les mentions "GOES-16", et "GOES-East".

🛰️ Deux références à un satellite météo de la @NASA, qui couvre le continent américain. (2/10) Image
On trouve les images de ce satellite en accès libre sur plusieurs plateformes, mais l'une d'entre elles correspond parfaitement à ce que l'on voit dans la vidéo.

Elle est gérée par l'université américaine de @CollegeDuPage. (3/10)

It was inevitable that this #Alberta lawyer would limit who could see her revealing thread.
So, I took screen shots to keep things on record.
This is an invaluable glimpse into the mindset of those working within the penal system in #Canada 🇨🇦.
In this series of 10 tweets, we see… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
Tweet #1 : Instant anger over citizens simply expressing their concerns in a public space. Image
Tweet #2 - Admitting that few in #Canada really care much about incarcerated women.
Amy is right!
But why, then, would she proceed to excoriate a few folks on a Calgary #yyc overpass who actually *do* care?
Why would she become so angry when encountering such a rare thing?… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image

You can be that way if you'd like, Daniel. No one's upset that you're a #Kremlin employee. Everyone has to make a living, right? 🤷‍♂️

Just understand that we shall continue to obstruct #Russia's plainly obvious #war of conquest—apparently your definition of "#warmongering."

I'd probably miss the old #Soviet days too if I was you. We can understand your desire to rebuild the old empire.

Although, for the sake of your mental health, I hope you're not too overly nostalgic. Now that we know what you're up to, we'll certainly thwart your ambitions.

We'd had high hopes that you'd choose a more enlightened means of restoring your respectability. 🌍

Unfortunately, like the fellow in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade film who foolishly drank from the necrotizing holy grail instead of the real one, "you've chosen poorly."

#Canada imported thousands of #Nazi collaborators and far-right nationalists after WWII as part of a conscious policy, worked out with industrial capital, to smash the organizations of the working class. The #mining industry in particular worked to crush #socialist influence. Image
In order to grow the economy after WWII, Canadian capital needed to re-open the country to mass immigration to grow the absolute size of the labour force, the source of all value creation. But what kind of new immigrants would be preferred? Toronto Star, March 18th, 1...
"There's one man in the group of recent arrivals who threatened to crack heads when the Communist line is expounded..." Anti-communist workers were preferred because they were subordinate to capital, could be manipulated using religion and nationalism, and would accept lower pay. Globe and Mail, Feb 23, 1948
