ALBERTA'S CORPORATE MEDIA HAS A RECORD OF UNDERSTATING BIGOTRY IN UCP

Progress Alberta's Bashir Mohamed notes that the corporate media in Alberta do little investigative reporting and that almost all of the revelations about racist comments (and one should add homophobic and misogynist comments) that have been reported were uncovered by Press Progress or by individuals on social media.

And then the corporate media use language in both headlines and articles that understate the blatant character of the bigotry. Comments that are clearly racist are simply labelled as "controversial."

No wonder that Jason Kenney is promising to go after Press Progress, the journal of the Broadbent Institute. He claims that they are a partisan force targeting his party. But he refuses to engage with their actual, well-researched materials much as he refuses to engage with generally well-researched materials by environmental organizations. Like his mentor Stephen Harper he favours censorship of his opponents over debate. And there is a great deal to debate. The UCP is replete with bigots, some of whom are now Cabinet ministers while others grace the government caucus. The impact of that on the government's decision-making ought to be a public issue. But the corporate media, flush with ads from the UCP during the election, are largely silent on the issue.

"The Pact for a Green New Deal": Visionary Roadmap From Canadian Coalition Launched

"A #GreenNewDeal is not a radical vision. It's a rational one. It works for everyone, not just big corporations and the fossil fuel industry."

A broad Canadian coalition representing scores of groups unveiled a visionary roadmap on Monday for a Green New Deal that tackles the climate crisis as well as social and economic justice.

The unprecedented changes in society necessary to rein in global warming, according to organizers of the new effort, are also "an unprecedented opportunity to build justice and prosperity."

That opportunity is laid out in The Pact for a Green New Deal.

The effort was launched at press conferences in Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver Monday—the same day a bleak report from the United Nations detailed how the human-caused climate crisis and economic activity have pushed up to a million plant and animal species to the brink of extinction.

As of Sunday, organizers say, the pact has been backed by 67 organizations, including Indigenous Climate Action, Migrant Workers Alliance for Change, The Leap, and Climate Action Network – Réseau action climate

Dozens of noted Canadian individuals are supporting the effort as well, including musicians Rufus Wainwright and Neil Young, scientists David Suzuki and Christina Hoicka, and actors Evangeline Lilly and Cobie Smulders.imat Canada.

Let's be clear - climate justice begins with respecting Indigenous rights. A commitment to the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples must be at the heart of a Green New Deal.

Talk about the sands of time.

Argues British Columbia sculptor Damon Langlois, "We should realize that, and fight for it." Abe would likely agree: “America will never be destroyed from the outside," he wrote. "If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.”
