Fraser Milner Casgrain (FMC) law firm was aquirred by Dentons. Their report shows how Harper tried to bypass First Nations consent. Josh Jantzi who wrote it became a solicitor for Enbridge for the Supreme Court case vs Chippewas of the Thames re: Line 9. https://t.co/7qTYcWt1Yi
Report dated May 28-29 2012 titled: Aboriginal Consultation and Project Development prepared by Bernard J. Roth and Joshua A. Jantzi of Fraser Milner Casgrain. Mr. Jantzi now works for Dentons. Hired by Enbridge for Line 9 Supreme Court vs. Chippwas of the Thames.
Dentons endorsed the Isle of Man tax evasion system. https://t.co/oSTIbobyNq
Dentons created from merger of SNR Denton, Fraser Milner Casgrain and Salans and later merged with Chinese law firm Dacheng in 2015.
Interesting to note this senior partner of Dentons worked with Jack Ma. (Ant, Alibaba etc. ) https://t.co/n5KLiof1Ck
2014 Harper was dealing with China when Ma said he intends to sell almost a quarter of a million Canadian lobsters, ten times what it moved the year prior. https://t.co/CZ7jT3PBSV
After he left office Stephen Harper like Jean Chrestien and James Moore ended up working at Dentons.

The company calls the relationship with Harper a "strategic affiliation," noting that Harper remains chairman and CEO of his own consulting agency.
Harper worked out of the Dentons office in Calgary. https://t.co/Xpmo1WswKj
Kpmg and Dentons were linked here with Beth Wilson. Beth Wilson, former KPMG Greater Toronto Area Managing Partner was selected as Dentons Canada CEO effective July 1, 2017. https://t.co/zRgOyyIfae
The Honourable James Moore was appointment to the Board of the Canada China Business Council. https://t.co/LNNFZPM2ZP
Citic links to SNC Lavalin, Barrick, Demarais and others at the Canada China Business Council. https://t.co/9AKImu7R0p.
André Desmarais was member of Citic's board of directors for 16 years.

Qatar invested billions in Citic. https://t.co/nfBtCegeN1
At Brookfield there are concerns insiders wield such power that the companies below them could face risks similar to those of “pyramid control companies”, according to a draft investor disclosure that Brookfield filed with the Securities.https://t.co/0lZYaOMfS1
Brookfield Asset Management and Doha connected with Brookfield Property Partners (BPY). Through a sovereign wealth fund, Doha holds $1.8bn worth of BPY and Qatar can force Brookfield Asset Management to buy them back for $1.8bn over the next 6 years. https://t.co/m3bCvbj4i6
In 2018 Brookfield's Senior Manager James Flatt's base salary was $795,334 with $5,385,958 in shares making his total compensation $6,181,292. Giving shares to CEOs is a horrible tax loophole. Reduces taxes 50%. They should be paid in cash. https://t.co/YeNr8HosUv
Brookfield Asset Management unveiled sweeping changes to its "unusual" ownership structure that for decades has given a secretive group of self-styled partners the right to wield huge influence over the US$500-billion investment firm. https://t.co/h8BjL4tSqI

The world's richest man, Bezos currently has a net worth of $187.5B — more than a third of which was earned between April and September of

Canada's covid wage subsidiary released in April 2020 worth 71 billion.

The Bank of China (BOC), SNC-Lavalin and WE Charity were recipients of taxpayer-funded the Covid 19 Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS)

Canada has given over 100 contracts to SNC Lavalin since Covid in spite of their continued roll in Operation Carwash corruption scandals in Brazil.

53 organizations representing over 2 million people, we call on the Government of Canada to immediately order EDC to align its business with Canada’s climate commitments. Coastal Gaslink Pipeline mentioned.

In Canada the pattern repeated with multiple pipelines. After approvals they flip the ownership of pipes with asset sales to negate contractual obligations re: terms of approval, insurance, liability etc. This happened to TransMountain, Coastal Gas Link, Enbridge Line 10 etc.

My email to the Prime Minister from Feb. 2020. I am still waiting for the answers.


Canada Energy Regulator (CER) is formerly the National Energy Board. I asked for proof of the insurance of Enbridge's pipelines. The CER Chair sent me data based on assets owned in 2016 most of which has been sold off since. The website give in the response held that info.

Covid recovery money is going to the oligarchy.

Ottawa and the provinces have put very little on the table to help clean-tech companies directly during Covid 19 while targeting fossil-fuel producers with more than $16 billion in aid.

Coast to coast people have demanded treaties be honored. We demanded climate action, divestment and land back but Canada is not listening. This video shows 10 years of rallies in Waterloo Ontario. City & regional council declared a climate emergency. 🚨

I’ve been reading lots recently about the interaction between First Amendment law and free speech principles with respect to online services in light of the events of the last few weeks.

And I have thoughts (MY OWN). So, I’m sorry ... a thread 1/25

One of the main reasons I think users are best served by a recognition that social media services have 1st Amendment rights to curate the content on their sites is because many users want filtered content, either by topic, or by behavior, or other. 2/

So online services should have the right to do this filtering, and to give their users the tools to do so too. For more detail see our Prager U amicus brief
https://t.co/73PswB9Q7Q 3/

So, I disagree with my friends (and others) who say that every online service should apply First Amendment rules, even though they cannot be required to do so. There are both practical and policy reasons why I don’t like this. 4/

Most obviously, the 1st Amendment reflects only one national legal system when this is inherently an international issue. So it’s politically messy, even if you think a 1st Amendment-based policy will be most speech-protective (though probably only non-sexual speakers). 5/
