This coming Saturday afternoon, Sept 12th, 2pm I hope you'll join us at the Riverview Public Library for the launch of local author Paul Burns' novel The Druid and the Dragon.

There will be cake! Coffee! Fellowship! And maybe a short speech or two, along with copies of Paul's book.

You are under no obligation to attend, of course. But if you don't, it might make a certain already kind of grouchy dragon a little cranky. Just sayin'!

#FirstNations chiefs shouldn’t be duped by the ‘#nuclear-is-green' deception

by William Eric Altvater, February 6, 2025

"Some First Nation Chiefs are victims of shenanigans, not unlike the swindle behind the purchase of Manhattan. The federal government needs the support of #Indigenous peoples to expand nuclear power generation capacity in #Canada.

"For millennia, the cornerstones of the Indigenous people that inhabit Turtle Island, now known as North America, held all that is essential to life, in reverence. Every decision considered the next 7 generations. These cornerstones are crumbling.

"Newcomers, armed with the #Colonizing tool, 'The #DoctrineOfDiscovery' and their mentality of superiority, invaded the land of those they called 'Savages,' almost totally exterminating #Skicinuwok, People of The Earth.

"Determined to bestow Christianity and civility to this wild untamed population, old growth forests were cut, rivers and streams were dammed to power sawmills, roads and railroads were built, bridges erected. All to create an infrastructure for #capitalism, a system to make a #profit, that morphed into #greed, a word of foreign root. This unbridled desire for progress has ruined what was once called Paradise.

"Now most water is not fit to drink, clean air is scarce, #deforestation is rampant, #biodiversity loss out of control, plants genetically modified, food manufactured with unpronounceable chemicals, caged fish starved of oxygen while being fed chicken feathers and pig parts, cancer cases in the millions, the list goes on.

"As the population increased over this continent the available sources for power generation have not been able to satisfy the insatiable desires of the 'bigger, better, faster, more is never enough' mentality. Some have finally acknowledged the fact that #FossilFuels are not the golden egg they were once deemed to be.

"So-called '#GreenEnergy' is required to slow the blind drive to extinction of man; man, who is considered by some to be the most intelligent creature to ever roam Earth. Unfortunately, the lure of riches and the corruption of self-serving purposes have led man to stray from practices that nurture everything required to sustain life on this tiny blue marble floating through the universe.

"#NuclearPower is now being touted as being 'Green.' It is not. Big money corporations are lobbying legislators to convince them and the public that it is. They are also lobbying to convince the public that they should foot the bill in the form of taxes and rate hikes, for a process that pollutes from the day it starts. Water is life. As soon as #uranium is mined from the earth it begins to contaminate the water in surrounding aquifers.

"When the uranium is processed sufficiently, it is used as fuel for reactors where it generates heat while delivering electricity, not just for essential needs, but also for many things once considered luxuries. This fission generated heat is then dumped into nearby waters where it kills thousands, if not millions of small beings that form the basis of life itself.

"After this radioactive fuel is depleted, it is stored in various containers where it will stay radioactive for eons. Indigenous #Grandmothers have labelled it 'Forever Dangerous.'

"The power generated during the fission process benefits only those who exist today as the process occurs, not those born tomorrow or next week or next month. All the #RadioactiveWaste and the inherent danger it creates is left to future generations, kicking the can down the road.

"What better place to dump this waste than in an area with a population that has witnessed Newcomers enrich themselves for hundreds of years? Yes, what better place than a population that has been targeted for assimilation, suffered theft of lands, witnessed the taking of naturally bestowed rights? A population that has been subjected to racial Indian Act legislation essentially stripping away all that sustained this population for thousands of years.

"Yes, let us give the Indians some more shiny beads and trinkets so that they willingly agree to care for our radioactive garbage. How do we do this? Let’s talk to the Chief and Council. Let’s wine and dine them. Let’s give them some money, take them to dinner, buy some drinks and make them feel all festive and most of all make them think we are looking out for their best interests. Some Chiefs have taken the bait.

"Egregious as it may be, this is exactly what is happening in some Indigenous communities contrary to the will of the majority. Elected Chiefs are continuing the deception as they are blinded and professing the 'Nuclear is Green' mantra. They have lost connection with the Spirit of Ancestors and traditional values. They need to have a serious introspection and realize that looking forward, we need only look back at what has sustained us to this point in time. We need not do any more than that."

Eric lives in #PeskotomuhkatiNation territory in Maine and stands shoulder to shoulder with his Peskotomuhkati relations in #NewBrunswick in the struggle to achieve Canadian Government recognition.

#NewBrunswick #RCMP dispute 'wellness check' description in #Elsipogtog shooting

Mounties won't offer more information about call

by Shane Magee · CBC News · Posted: Sep 13, 2024

"[Steve (Iggy) Dedam] is the third #Indigenous person shot and killed by a police officer in New Brunswick in four years.

"The deaths of #ChantelMoore and #RodneyLevi, in June 2020, during #WellnessChecks led to protests and calls for an inquiry into #SystemicRacism in the justice system. The provincial government did not call that inquiry. The call for an inquiry arose again this week after Dedam's death.

"The year Levi and Moore died saw wellness checks, and whether police should carry them out, come under increased scrutiny."

Did you know that Carleton County, New Brunswick, Canada is home to both the world’s longest covered bridge *and* the world’s shortest covered bridge?

The Hartland bridge is 390 meters long and carries one lane of traffic over the mighty Saint John’s River. Meanwhile, in nearby Wakefield, the world’s shortest covered bridge is over 700 centimeters long and carries a few people over a rocky gorge separating the Irving gas station and the burned-out remains of the Covered Bridge Potato Chip Company.

#CarletonCountyNB #CarletonCounty #NewBrunswick #Canada #CoveredBridges #WorldRecords

At over one-third of a kilometer long, the Hartland Covered Bridge is the longest surviving covered bridge in the world. It carries a single lane of traffic over the Saint John’s River.
