As the first Indigenous judge appointed to an appellate court in Canada, LaForme’s life and legal career have been shaped by “the shadow of settler colonialism,” which he says contributed to the deep kinship that he feels to Jewish people and their “ancestral homeland.”

According to the 2024 Ipsos World Affairs Report, Canada is the most positively viewed global leader, 79% of people across 30 countries believe we’re a force for good. Stability, respect, kindness. That’s the reputation on the line every time we vote. Leading ahead of Germany and France.

On Red Dress Day, across Courtenay-Alberni, many formal & informal ceremonies and observances are taking place, each a powerful act of remembrance, solidarity, & a call for justice. I will never stop pushing for the full implementation of the Nat'l Inquiry's Calls for Justice. Today, and every day.

There’s something scary happening in the Canadian federal election. In Quebec, the Bloc leader is now telling voters “Carney WILL WIN” so people can vote to give the Bloc more seats. Singh is now saying Carney will get a “super majority” so voters can elect NDP candidates. Do you see the problem?

Reminder to both U.S. residents and Canadians that everyone out there right now badly needs to understand what a tariff is, how they work, AND WHO PAYS FOR THEM. Hint: Not surprisingly, almost everything Trump says about tariffs, Canada, Mexico, and the EU is a lie. Please watch and share.
