Jersey fiefdoms we’re not quashed when Canada formed. My family were kept as slaves in modern Canada because of that. View 54 minutes into this National Film Board of Canada movie called Tintamarre - On the Trail of Acadians in North America. nfb.ca/film/tintamarr…
Over 30 years ago, a company in Saint John NB owned by Robert Maxwell — the late British billionaire media mogul and father to #GhislaineMaxwell — was found to have defaulted on a $100 million loan after his death. cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…
The Jersey tax havens link to Canada and are associated with the Channel Islands which are is the worst place for tax evasion. bbc.com/news/world-eur…
Big oil is moving their money to the Channel Islands. reuters.com/article/global…
Ghislaine’s dad Robert Maxwell said “Just as oil became dominated by a few giants, so communications is likely to be dominated by a dozen major international corporations,” he predicted. “I intend to be one of them.”forbes.com/sites/noahkirs…
Robert Maxwell parked his money at St John NB. Today Post Media has foreign control over the majority of Canadian Press Media. The next CEO will be Jamie Irving of the Irving Oil family of St.John NB readpassage.com/jamie-irvings-…
In 2019 Nearly all of Saudi's shipments to Canada travel to Irving Oil Ltd.’s Saint John NB refinery, it was 40% in July 2019. Irving ships more than half of the fuels it produces, including gas diesel, heating oil and jet fuel, to the U.S. bnnbloomberg.ca/saudi-disrupti…
Canada has oil for weapons contracts for Saudi. Fossil fuels and war funding are interwoven. Divestment in one should be divestment of both. nbmediacoop.org/2019/07/03/wha…
Irving’s and Saudi have no intention to ever stop imports regardless of pipelines built or other geopolitical risks. financialpost.com/commodities/en…
My view: if you want to divest oil and stop big oil profits, go after Irving and Jersey tax evasion. cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…
U.S. oil refineries pay property taxes 5 times higher than what N.B. Irving refinery pays. cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…
The Irving companies mastered tax evasion down to an art and crafted the system to look like they aren't making any money at all so they can bleed the public purse for further government hand outs. Check this video for details. vimeo.com/124217791
Tax justice is climate justice. Connect the dots and shut the tax dodging loopholes.

@UNAIDS Sub-Sahara faces environmental racism, displacement of people and lack of regard for rights because of the toxic culture of colonialism and resource extraction. In Canada it remains a systemic issue. canadiandimension.com/articles/view/…
Virus was used by colonialists to kill since the days of Jeffrey Amherst. He gifted small pox blankets taken from infirmaries to give to people from Acadia to Standing Rock. It killed many of my ancestors. umass.edu/legal/derrico/…

Big Pharma prioritizing profits over saving lives. Racist inequalities are undermining progress towards ending Aids. Sub-Saharan Africa has more than half of all new infections, with girls & women facing new infection rates 3 times higher than men. theguardian.com/global-develop…
32 African countries have laws criminalising same-sex relations, and this often stops LGBTQ+ people accessing sexual and reproductive health services. Poverty, racism, inequality and lack of education and health care funding “combine to crush people”. theguardian.com/global-develop…
UNAids suggest that girls who completed secondary school were 50% less likely to become infected with HIV as they were less vulnerable to patriarchal power dynamics and poverty than their counterparts. theguardian.com/global-develop…

My Acadian people are still on our own land grant land and of Henri Membertou’s line in the Vatican made nationhood that was verified with Queen Elizabeth’s apology admitting deportation was illegal. US law, Treaty of Utrecht, Vatican and UK acknowledged it.

Ford is a serial abuser of law. Why is Canada and the Crown so incredibly complicit to all this? My view: If the federal government and Crown is not stopping the problem, you are part of it. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
We need laws to stop abuse of dominance and anti competitive practices. We need conflict of interest laws with teeth. We need the right to remove politicians who fail to show reasonable compliance to Canadian law.

Precarious work is a huge issue in Waterloo Region. Employees often lack insurance, sick leave and there is lack of predictability of income that creates the inability to feed & house families. I know professors who rely on food banks. People need job security.
Managers have discretionary power to cut back hours removing the health benefits of part time workers. Some Professors don’t know if they have a job until two weeks before the term starts.
