@ChiefSAugustine You want to know why Germans liked the Indigenous people so much? My family were Habsburgs married with the lines of Membertou. Charles V was the king of Germany. We had trade with Europe since 1550's at least.

Our Mi'kmaw baskets were in Antwerp in use along with hockey sticks and snow shoes. We had voyage along the path of cod because it prevented scurvy. Our dwellings were of Denmark. Our Walnut trees too. The history is with me brother.

This photo is Avalin Gallien, Medard Lanteigne and my dad Adelbert Lanteigne (no hat) Medard was his cousin. Bottom row left to right, Nellie Lanteigne (Medard's sister) Carmen Gallien (Avalin's sister) and Vencia Lanteigne. The clothing handed down generations.

The Lavvu shelter is of the Sami people. The same look as Mi'kmaw shelter. We shared textiles and goods and many things, even spices because we were internationally connected by trade for centuries. We had the whole world in our area because the jet streams & cod.

The Habsburgs are the Royal line of the Holy Roman Empire. The lines run through the mothers. It always did in our kin. Canada targeted First Nations women with blood quantum and with rapes, trafficking with welfare, jails, making us wards with military etc. I lived it.

Back in 2014, Dentons & Imperial Oil partner on Internationally Trained Lawyer Articling Program in Calgary

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.

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.

Dentons created from merger of SNR Denton, Fraser Milner Casgrain and Salans and later merged with Chinese law firm Dacheng in 2015.

Doha links to Muslim Brotherhood. The Saudis want Qatar to end all financial support for the Muslim Brotherhood, which the kingdom has labeled a terrorist organization but Qatar is still doing business with MOUs to work with Doha.

The Doha Bank has a Toronto branch and were looking to expand Canadian branches.

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.

Qatari funds ended up in a billion-dollar rescue by Brookfield Asset Management for a company directly tied to Jared Kushner.

Among the areas of focus identified by US Congressional investigators is Brookfield’s decision to pay nearly a century of rent in advance when it leased 666 Fifth Avenue in 2018, months before the Kushner mortgage fell due.

The public supports less policing and prisons but Harper invested in social discord.

Policing, Prison and construction were linked under the Harper Government.

Richard Bird was VP of Enbridge and he also served as a member of the Canada's Federal Minister of Finance's Advisory Committee on Financing and currently serves as chairman of the board of directors of the Alberta Investment Management

Richard Bird, a former VP of Enbridge is linked to Ecopatrol, missing money and a massive sex scandal in Colombia and Prison Schemes with bid rigging, corruption and collusion.

There was bid rigging corruption and collusion during Prime Minister Harper's term as they invested in private prisons across Canada. Read here. This mentions Bird Construction Inc. Richard Bird was VP of Enbridge Pipeline Inc.

Canadian media has acted like the messenger for the devil's architects. Conservative supporters bought out the Toronto Star and Post Media"s foreign owned hedge fund are calling the shots.

Post Media in Canada represents a foreign ownership of the free press that would not be tolerated in the U.S., France, Japan or Germany.

As for Leon Cooperman, who owned 14% of Postmedia and 7% AMI, the SEC leveled insider trading charges against him for trades he directed in a small pipeline stock. Cooperman settled by paying $4.9 million, but neither admitted nor denied the accusations.

Postmedia's Deep Ties with American Media Inc.

In November 2019, Postmedia announced that 66% of its shares were now owned by Chatham Asset Management, an American media conglomerate which owns American Media, Inc., and is known for its close ties to the Republican party.

We are all products of our own environments. Our environments shape our character, our personality, our habits, our identity.

The environment that Ousmane Dembélé grew up in and the environment that FC Barcelona seeks to engulf its youngsters with could not be more different.

The Great Gatsby starts with a life lesson.

"Whenever you feel like criticizing any one, just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you've had."

Ousmane hasn’t had the advantages that La Masia youngsters have had. That’s why he’s Ousmane.

Like every La Masia youngster, Ousmane grew up with a dream: playing for Barça.

Like every youngster, he fought to stand out amid a talented group of players, the majority of which would fail to go pro.

However, his football education was the polar opposite to that of La Masia.

Ousmane did not reside in one of the most expensive academies in Europe: he lived in a low-cost public housing unit in Normandy. He did not play in the well-trimmed pitches of La Masia, he played in the concrete jungles of Évreux. These disadvantages made him the man he is today.

While street soccer encourages individuality & creative freedom, academy-based training like La Masia encourages unselfishness & teamwork.

That’s why Barça produce certain types of 20-year-olds like a factory line. It’s also why Barça spent €145m on a 20-year-old Ousmane.

1/OK, I should really write another thread about university-centric regional development, because I think people often make some (very understandable) mistakes when thinking about this issue.

2/The biggest myth, I think, is that universities help regions by educating locals as undergraduates.

Skeptics of universities say: "But most of the people who graduate end up leaving."

3/In fact, most of what a university does for a regional economy is NOT about educating local kids.

Educating local kids is good for the nation, but doesn't help a region much.

The way a university helps a region is through

4/Undergraduates usually leave town after graduation.

But university RESEARCH pulls in OTHER smart people from other regions, and they stay there.

Here's a paper showing that this is the main way universities increase a region's human capital:

5/Research also pulls in business investment.

Companies want to partner with university labs, so they can commercialize the technologies the labs produce. So they invest in the labs, and sometimes they even put their offices in the town.

This has been going around, links to support. At this point we should all be digging!

(1) “TEXAS something is not sitting right with me with Texas and it’s not just the weather.
I mean it really bothers me these millions of Texas families are suffering.
I couldn’t sleep actually...

(2) So I woke up this morning, made coffee and got to researching.
I started pulling Biden’s EO’s this morning and I found something buried in the Keystone Pipeline EO..... way towards the end of the doc.

(3) It turns out that the same day Biden shut down the Keystone Pipeline, he also lifted the security on our power grid for 90 days (Trump’s EO the year prior secured our power grid by giving China no access.)

(4) Here below is the snippet buried in Biden’s Keystone pipeline EO.
“c) Executive Order 13920 of May 1, 2020 (Securing the United States Bulk-Power System), is hereby suspended for 90 days.

I’ve just finished some research about the use of biosolids (human sewage sludge) as farm manure. The results will keep me awake at night.
¾ of biosolids in the UK are spread on farmland. The rules about what it can contain are not fit for purpose. Please read and share this 🧵

Biosolids typically contain a wide range of synthetic chemicals, including antibiotics and other pharmaceuticals, personal care products, microplastics and persistant organic pollutants, among them “forever chemicals”. Yet testing is restricted to a small number of contaminants.

Spreading them across the land means spreading them through the foodchain and the ecosystem. There’s plenty of evidence of uptake of many of these chemicals by crops, earthworms and other soil animals, and of large-scale antibiotic resistance developing among soil bacteria.

When soil is blown or washed off the land, these chemicals enter the air and water. Some seep into groundwater. We're likely to eat, drink and breathe them. It’s hard to say what the health thresholds are, or what the combined impact of this cocktail of synthetics might be.

Yet the issue has been wilfully neglected by governments. Regulation is negligible. Farmers in the UK are “responsible for knowing the levels of any potentially toxic elements” before spreading sludge. But how? With an on-farm lab that can test for 80,000 possible contaminants?
