B.C. chief Ron Giesbrecht\u2019s $1M pay \u2018very troubling\u2019, minister\u2019s office says\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>{ The Chief of the Kwikwetiem First Nation (we call them \u2018Native Americans\u2019 does anybody ask them what they call themselves?) was paid \u201c$914,219.\u201d last year. The \u2018very troubling\u2019 statement came from the Minister of Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development\u2019s office. This is a cabinet level appointment (We call them Secretaries of whatever, Canadians call them Ministers of whatever.) The current Prime Minister and just about all of his appointees have the same party line and philosophy that believes it is perfectly correct to seize the property of a laid off worker who can\u2019t pay his taxes (& whose 25 years with a company ((that closed down their Canadian operation and moved to some country where unions don\u2019t stand a chance and virtual slavery in \u2018employment\u2019 is encouraged))\u2013 left him without a job and without a prayer for any kind of compensation, sometimes even without a pension ((although Canadians can get an \u2018Old Age Pension\u2019, supplemented income\u2014 for now anyway\u2014 unless the Conservatives get their way))- ), but they won\u2019t touch corporations who thumb their noses at regulations and owe thousands of times more money in unpaid taxes and fees. }<\/address>\n

Canada Post thefts halt Lens Rentals Canada service\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>{ The \u2018current government\u2019 ((regime?)) in Canada wants to dismantle Canada Post (their postal service) the same way the conservative Republicans in the US would like to dismantle the US Postal Service and sell off the rights to deliver mail and parcels to \u2018Private Business Interests\u2019. [ Remember that the definition of a Fascist Government is one that is in bed with Corporate Powers ((a.k.a. : “Banksters”)) ]\u00a0 So I\u2019m a bit suspicious here\u2026. Lens Rentals Canada is a company that rents high-end camera lenses and other equipment to photographers across the country. Several of its packages that had been mailed through the Canada Post were apparently stolen out of a Canada Post facility in Mississauga, Ontario, ((In the western reaches of the \u2018Greater Toronto Area\u2019)). Lens Rental Canada has stopped taking orders and is shipping stuff that has already been ordered through Purolator, which is \u2018majority owned by Canada Post\u2019 but does not share any aspects of the Canada Post delivery network. }<\/address>\n
