"Smith said Friday she might ask fellow premiers what they would think about revisiting Indigenous land rights as set out in the Constitution, in the wake of the court ruling that quashed the pro-separatist citizen petition over the government's failure to consult with Indigenous peoples."
Fuck no!
Fuck no!
So our Premier wants to open up s 35 (Indigenous rights). Perhaps she wants to tack on a notwithstanding clause to that provision - her usual response when she finds rights (that is, the rights of others) inconvenient. #abpoli #cdnpoli

Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on.
And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking.

2) the "immunity debt" claim is that after a bad influenza season, influenza gets better
Now look at how 2022-23 compares to previous years, and ask "Which claim was right?"

Why not both? Bad flu strain and population-level immune dysfunction from mass, repeat COVID infection.
