As much of North America was locked down during the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, Matty Clarke was in a boat full of supplies, motoring up the Yukon River. He was searching for wild lands where he could strike it rich.
“Getting myself a goldmine,” he told viewers on his YouTube channel. “Everyone’s heard about all this gold up there. You must be curious yourself – what’s actually going on up there? Can I just show up with all this stuff and end up having a goldmine? I think so.”
Jurors on Friday found police used excessive force against protesters, violating their constitutional rights, during demonstrations over the killing of George Floyd in 2020 – and ordered the city to pay a total of $14 million in damages to 12 who sued.
The jury of two men and six women, largely white and drawn from around Colorado, returned its verdict after about four hours of deliberations.
The verdict followed three weeks of testimony and evidence that included police and protester video of incidents.
Weapons have played a key role in helping Ukraine defend itself against Russia’s invading forces. Now the arms lobby is pushing for investors and EU regulators to classify the industry as “sustainable.”

UK distances itself from Biden saying Putin ‘cannot remain in power’
A UK cabinet minister distanced the government from Joe Biden’s call that Russia’s Vladimir Putin “cannot remain in power” amid criticism that the comment could bolster the Kremlin.
Though no government figure has been overtly critical of the comments, unlike the French president, Emmanual Macron, Nadhim Zahawi, the education secretary, said it was “for the Russian people to decide how they are governed” after the unscripted remark from Biden at a speech in Poland on Saturday, which the White House later said was not a call for regime change.
Macron distances himself from Biden’s Putin comments
French President Emmanuel Macron said he “would not use those words” after US President Joe Biden called the Russian leader a “butcher” over the war in Ukraine.
Biden’s barbed remark about Putin: A slip or a veiled threat?
… Several of the administration’s most ardent supporters in the foreign policy world quickly chided the president for seeming to seek Mr. Putin’s removal. Richard Haass, the president of the Council on Foreign Relations, called it a “bad lapse in discipline that runs risk of extending the scope and duration of the war.”
Biden is not all there.
NATO’s military spending target ‘arbitrary,’ but some boosts warranted: Singh
NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh says the military spending targets agreed to among NATO countries are “arbitrary” goals and says he told Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Canada should not aim to meet them.
However, some areas of additional support for the Canadian Forces, such as boosting recruitment and improving search-and-rescue times are warranted, he told The West Block‘s guest host Eric Sorenson.
President Joe Biden said Russian President Vladimir Putin “cannot remain in power” in remarks made Saturday.
The president spoke in Warsaw, Poland to wrap up his multi-day trip to Europe. His comments mark one of the strongest statements made by the president and his administration so far regarding Putin being in power, though the White House sought to quickly clarify his comments afterwards.
"For god's sake this man can not remain in power!"
After denying NATO enlargement has anything to do with destabilizing Russia, Biden closes his Poland address with a stentorian demand for regime change in Moscow.

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney says he won’t apologize for comments he is heard making in recordings in which he compares political opponents in his party to insects and calls them lunatics.
Kenney says the United Conservative Party is under siege from extremist elements, including homophobes and religious bigots, seeking a hostile takeover by toppling him in an upcoming leadership review.
“I am determined to ensure that such hateful, extreme and divisive voices do not find a home in this mainstream broad conservative party,” Kenney told reporters in Calgary on Friday.
To many, it’s a fun fairytale to lure tourists; to others, it’s a genuine mystery – or just a silly hoax.
But to woke education chiefs, the Loch Ness Monster is a potent symbol of England’s domination of Scotland – a theory which will now be taught in schools.
Pupils north of the border are to be told how the mythical beast reinforces negative stereotypes and ingrains bias about the Scots.

A women’s rights group meeting to discuss single-sex spaces was protested by trans activists – leading to police being called.
Around 200 protestors holding up placards that read ‘Some women have penises’ and ‘If you are transphobic – do one’ gathered outside a venue in Manchester where Women’s Place UK were holding their discussion.
The group was hosting its annual conference to consider ‘the importance and future of single-sex provision in policy and law’.
Sure they do.
President Joe Biden on Saturday compared Poland’s taking in more than 2 million Ukraine refugees to the migrant situation on the Southern border of the U.S.
The odd comparision came as Biden was thanking Polish President Andrzej Duda for his country’s response to the humanitarian crisis and pledging U.S. financial aid.
‘We do acknowledge Poland has taken on a lot with all of the responsibility,’ Biden said.
Alberta’s premier has called fellow Conservatives “lunatics” who are “trying to take over the asylum” as a populist mutiny in his party foreshadows a bitter fight for the future of Canada’s Conservative movement.
In a leaked recording of a meeting with caucus staff on Tuesday, Premier Jason Kenney warned a far-right element – skeptical of coronavirus measures and wedded to conspiracy theories – could seize control of the party in the coming weeks as the United Conservatives hold a leadership review.
“I will not let this mainstream conservative party become an agent for extreme, hateful, intolerant, bigoted and crazy views. Sorry to be so blunt with you but you need to understand what the stakes are here,” he said, before alluding to the baseless QAnon conspiracy theory with a warning that “people who think I am involved in a global conspiracy to traffic children” would show up to vote for his removal.
