How did B.C.’s historic Indigenous Rights law, DRIPA, become so controversial? | The Narwhal Unanimously passed and once celebrated, B.C.’s Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act is now facing rushed amendments

If Eby wasn't NDP premier he would be getting WAY more push back.

dude is literally blaming courts for stating the obvious: obligations to Indigenous rights are legally enforceable. And now, with Conservative support, he is fast tracking roll backs DRIPA and Indigenous rights

BC NDP are shit.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Ezra Klein: There's a Rick & Morty quote I really like.

Ezra Klein: It goes like this, "Why would a pop-tart want to live inside a toaster? That would be like the scariest place for them to live."

Ta-Nehisi Coates not saying anything

Ezra Klein: Because in the episode they go to a neighborhood where everyone is a pop-tart and they live in toaster-houses.

National Post headline reads: IDF kills Hamas terror cell leader posing as 'Al Jazeera' journalist Subhead reads: Israeli strike in Gaza slays Hamas commander Anas al-Sharif, who posed as an 'Al Jazeera' journalist while directing rocket attacks on Israel

FUCK you @nationalpost.bsky.social.

This is unforgivable, traitorous shit from people claiming to be journalists.

How dare you accept this framing from a state that is SLAUGHTERING our colleagues.

How DARE you.

America appropriated a lot from the Haudenosaunee, too much to list here. But what they never understood was Peace, actual Peace. America's original sin was killing us (and so many others) so it could have "peace" and it never attoned for that. Each president is forever cursed to kill for "freedom".

Yintah Wins Canadian Screen Award for Best Documentary - POV Magazine Yintah leads the documentary winners at the Canadian Screen Awards as the categories for feature film were handed out over the weekend.

YINTAH tops Canadian Screen Award winners for documentary as the feature film prizes were handed out over the weekend. povmagazine.com/yintah-wins-...

Congratulations to @mtol.bsky.social for Canadian Screen Award for Best Cinematography in a Feature Length Documentary for Yintah. Michael has been doing phenomenal and courageous work for years. Nice to see him recognized in this way.

9/ Recognizing the precarious and limited safety that made this work possible, I accept this award as a reminder of the importance of truth telling, and dedicate this award to media workers in occupied territories worldwide.

8/ As of April 2025, Israeli forces have more than killed more than 232 journalists in Gaza, who have courageously acted as the world’s eyes and ears.

7/ Repression is a spectrum. While Canadian police have been increasingly quick to arrest media workers, colonial forces in Israel have attempted to normalize the targeted assassinations of journalists.

6/ I am grateful to have been able to witness this inspiring history of Wet’suwet’en resistance to colonization and to have come out of the experience alive.

5/ This award recognizes the incredible efforts of a team committed to truth and justice – and it comes as those in our profession, at home and worldwide, face increasingly hostile environments for truth telling.

4/ Dan Loan, Keir Knight, Jesse Freeston & Grace Burke all faced police lines while Sam Vinal & Alexandra Kotcheff beautifully documented the earliest days of the resistance. All worked in solidarity, often on a voluntary basis, in difficult environments, following Wet'suwet'en laws and protocols.

3/ I faced an RCMP rifle and four days in jail, and years of targeted harassment in order to make this film. Melissa Cox was arrested twice documenting this history, and devoted two years of her life to this project.

2/ This film would not be possible without the dedication of many cinematographers who each witnessed parts of this story, and in some cases made extraordinary personal sacrifices to make sure a camera was always present.

1/ It's an honour to win Best Cinematography in a Documentary for Yintah from the Canadian Screen Awards. Some thoughts on the award:

Yintah’s cinematography was a decade-long collective effort to witness history in the face of RCMP repression.

Thanks Charlie!
