Oil Pipeline is a Ridiculous Right Wing Agenda ?

Oil Pipeline is a Ridiculous Right Wing Agenda with a potential for a full failure on this.

This is one huge project that even if it fully started would take years and years to complete

First thing these right wingers are just shoving this down everyone's throats without proper consultation. Which will tie things up in the courts for years by various groups and other people who greatly oppose.

Also so far there are no companies that wish to build this, as the responsibility is too huge and the controversy would be on the shoulders of that company too.

What are your thoughts on this? you think this will happen? or will just be something with endless talks? be a big intended failure?Oil Pipeline

Tamara Lich guest of Ambassador Pete Hoekstra at 4th of July party

In addition to the unwavering support of Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre, Tamara Lich, a former Alberta separatist agitator, has two extremely well-connected people in her entourage: her employer, Rebel News head and Pierre Poilievre and Tommy Robinson mentor Ezra Levant, and her lawyer, Lawrence Greenspon, a JNF Canada patron leading a push to defund UNRWA whose previous clients include Conservative Senator Mike Duffy, right-wing independent journalist Jamie Gilcig, and ex-convict and long-time con artist Julie Bilotta of OCDC jail birth notoriety.

*****

Alberta's separatist “movement” is primarily being orchestrated by the Rebel News Mafia, which is a Canadian propaganda outlet for the American, British, and Israeli far-right.

Both Pierre Poilievre and the far-right British agitator Tommy Robinson, whose 2025 Unite the Kingdom rally was funded and keynoted by trillionaire Trump ally Elon Musk, regard Ezra Levant as a mentor.

Rebel Media is financed in significant part by the GOP-aligned Zionist oligarch Robert Shillman, who's paid for Tommy Robinson and Laura Loomer's Rebel News Journalism Fellowships. Rebel is known for an editorial line that unapologetically supports far-right United States President Donald Trump and minimizes Trump's unceasing attacks on Canadian and Greenlandic sovereignty. 

Dr. Shillman also financed Ben Shapiro and Tommy Robinson's internships with the David Horowitz Freedom Center and continues to help underwrite the political activities of Robinson and of Dutch PVV leader Geert Wilders to this day. Most recently, Shillman donated $100,000 to a far-right march organised by Robinson and his entourage in May of 2026.

Ben Shapiro has interfered in our domestic politics and advocated for our annexation by the United States on multiple occasions. He and Dennis Prager have periodically met with Danielle Smith.

Rebel Media currently employs Convoy figurehead and Universal Ostrich Farm agitator Tamara Lich, an Alberta separatist who's regularly been supported by Poilievre on social media and who's being represented by Conservative-aligned lawyer Lawrence Greenspon, who also currently represents fellow Convoy figurehead James Bauder and whose law firm has previously represented Harper-appointed Conservative Senator Mike Duffy.

Greenspon has been a major donor to JNF Canada, a charity that has been delisted for the CRA for its relationship with the Jewish National Fund and alleged role in enabling Israel's illegal West Bank settlements), and has spearheaded an on-going legal push to get UNRWA defunded by the Government of Canada. In 2024, Greenspon won an award from C2C Journal, which is affiliated with Preston Manning's Canada Strong and Free Network.

Tommy Robinson's English Defence League was founded in tandem with and with the support of both the British and the Canadian branches of the late far-right American Rabbi Meir Kahane's Jewish Defense League. The American branch of the JDL was declared a terrorist group by the FBI more than 20 years ago.

While Kahanist parties had once been banned in Israel, the neo-Kahanist Otzma Yehudit is an essential part of the governing coalition of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who enjoys the full support of the Conservative Party of Canada's party apparatus and the Rebel Media editorial line. 

Otzma Yehudit cabinet ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smoltrich have become household names both in Israel and internationally for their cruelty, their right-wing extremism, and their violent, genocidal rhetoric. Smoltrich was permitted to march in New York City's Israel Day Parade, which New York’s democratic socialist mayor Zohran Mamdani chose to not attend, a decision among many which has earned Mamdani the overwhelming support of New York City's residents.

In Halifax? Take the Organizer Training 101!

Sick of talking shit online, and ready to organize the working class? The IWW's Organizer Training 101 (OT101) covers all the basics of building a democratic shop-floor committee in your workplace.

Even if you're already represented by one of the mainstream unions, even if your workplace is "unorganizable", and even if your coworkers are conservatives who hate unions the OT101 will change the way you relate to work and to your workplace. As someone who has taken training from multiple unions and "Organizing for Power" I feel confident that this is better than all of them.

It is free for IWW members, and by donation for any worker who is not a member.

Fossil Fuel Industry Series #2: What is really being held back...

We hear from the right-wing political-media-industry sphere how "Oil & Gas is being so held back!"

This narrative is done at a level of brute-force brainwashing and sadly it has people operating like bots repeating this and similar lines ad nauseam.

Reality in Canada:

In 1990 as a nation we did around 1.7 MILLION barrels every single day.

In 2014 that was around 3.8 MILLION barrels every single day.

Now that sits around 4.6 to 5+ MILLION barrels every single day.

Out of 195 countries we are #4 in oil extraction in the world.

(I have my own issues with Trudeau *Broken promises regarding Electoral Reform and the like* but his administration pumped more Oil & Gas then any before it).

Do you know what was actually held back? RENEWABLE ENERGY!

Rarely is it mentioned that Alberta & Saskatchewan are two of the best places in all of Canada for Solar Power & Wind Power.

Alberta was leading in Renewable Energy for a long time because the conditions are just so amazing for it!

Then Danielle Smith/UCP started rewriting policy...

Now BILLIONS in Renewable Energy projects have halted and died on the vine. *It sure would have been nice to have all those jobs and clean affordable energy.... - Especially with the price of power in Alberta...

Summed up: Canada much like the U.S. has large petrocracy dimensions. There is a whole propaganda machine to misinform the populace on countless points of discussion. Oil & Gas is not what is being held back in Canada - Renewable Energy & Electrification Technology is what is being held back.

Editorial: The Human Rights Museum’s Nakba exhibit ignores the important context that I don’t want to hear about it

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind telling this story. I just want there to be enough details about Arab countries who are not Palestine invading Israel or expelling Jewish residents to create the impression the situation is a complicated miasma of suffering on all sides, rather than a clearly evil act done to Palestinians by Israelis, which has continued for 70 years and culminated in the genocide we have spent the last 2.5 years watching unfold in real time.

Stopping Indian Music Being Played In Public Should Be #1 Priority

I am so sick and tired of this loud Indian music that sounds like shit and is being played so loud. Don't ever stop posting this about this on this subreddit. I don't want to hear this Jeet Jeet La La La anymore. All music played outdoors should be in English. Fuck Bad Bunny fuck K-pop if it's not English it should be banned. This shit is more important than any other immigration issue. The problem isn't that there are too many immigrants. The problem is that they're Indian. Conservative party doesn't need these people to win an election. We can win without them. So we should do everything in our power to make sure these recent Indian immigrants vote Liberal once they inevitably get their citizenship.

Ps I'm White Canadian.
