  6. This article (cbc.ca/news/politics/carney-sm) is disturbing for all the predictable reasons, but I am going to focus my particular point of annoyance on the 2nd to last sentence in the very last paragraph.

    ""Haida nation will never stand for it," [Elizabeth May] said referring to coastal Indigenous people in the region.”

    I don't know if it's ignorance, laziness, or deadline writing… but the general passivity that the CBC reporter, JP Tasker, uses is mildly infuriating.

    1) Both words in ”Haida Nation" should be capitalized. That is the name of the Nation. (haidanation.ca)... not doing so signals the beginning of the dismissive tone.

    2) “coastal Indigenous people" is another diminishing of the Haida Nation. It is not just a non-distinct group of ‘Indigenous people”, it is a nation occupying a very specific, large, and consequential group of islands, collectively known as Haida Gwaii (previously Queen Charlotte Islands), on the Northwest Coast of BC in the direct path of any and all tankers. Haida Gwaii's land mass is about 10,000sqkm or about 1/3rd of the size of Vancouver Island.

    3) The stated purpose of the Council of the Haida Nation is: “To steward the lands and waters of the Haida Territories on behalf of the Haida Nation”. NOTE: *lands and waters*.

    4) finally, by using this dismissive and passive tone, the reporter is also diminishing May's point when, in fact, it could very well be the very point that scuttles the entire notion of a northern BC pipeline.

    Canada, under Trudeau, recognized Aboriginal title over all of Haida Gwaii (cbc.ca/news/canada/british-col). You think Trudeau did this to help cement the tanker ban? I sure think so.

    Will the Haida Nation stand idly by while Carney and Smith devise a plan to run oil tankers right through their titled waters? Nope. Not without a BIG fight.

    Anyway, I hate it when journalists do this kind of soft-racism.

  8. Current #American #Nuclear #Warhead Inventory Numbers Revealed
    After a hiatus that lasted several years, the standout figure is the overall total of #nuclearwarheads in the #US stockpile — 3,748 as of September 2023.
    “Although the #NewStart #treaty has had some indirect effect on the stockpile size due to reduced requirement, the biggest reductions since 2007 have been caused by changes in presidential guidance, strategy, and modernization programs.”
