Liberals are servants of the elite
The Liberal government in Ottawa claims to have a policy of climate action and Indigenous reconciliation. But it continues to press on with fossil fuel development over the objections of Indigenous people.
With their recent blockades of rail lines, Indigenous supporters are breaking the law. Injunctions by courts to end them are being ignored by some police forces. Where the law is not enforced, society falls apart. Where there is no law and order, a state of anarchy and revolution exist.
All this can be blamed on the hypocrisy of the Liberals. If we keep electing Liberals and Conservatives, who are the servants of the corporate elite, we will continue on the path of social and economic disintegration. The future lies in a green economy devoid of fossil fuels, and in the recognition of the United Nations Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous People.

Double standard
How come a recent strike by a union representing a group of railway workers constitutes a threat to the economy of the country, but a blockade by a small group of Indigenous people does not?
