AT THIS year’s Bafta awards, a moment of pure neurological chaos unfolded. John Davidson, the Tourette syndrome campaigner and subject of the film I Swear, let out an involuntary shout of the N-word while the black actors Michael B Jordan and Delroy Lindo presented an award. Davidson has coprolalia, a severe form of the disorder that forces out taboo words without warning or consent. He did not choose it. He did not mean it. Yet the backlash was swift, vicious and revealing.
Did the feds cede property rights to the Musqueam King? How will the Queen react?
Musqueam sign Aboriginal rights deals with federal government
The federal government said private lands are not affected but did not say whether there was money attached to the agreements
Others contest the government’s private lands claim.
The government of Canada AGREEMENT

But the private lands claim is again denied in this article…
What we know about Ottawa’s land rights deal with the Musqueam First Nation
What does this mean for B.C. property owners?
Based on the information in the press release, the new arrangement between Ottawa and the Musqueam does not impede on private property ownership in the region.
Again the feds deny that private property will be affected.
Feds release Musqueam title agreements covering much of greater Vancouver
OTTAWA – The federal government has released details of recent agreements with the Musqueam First Nation recognizing Aboriginal title over an area potentially covering much of Greater Vancouver, but it says the agreements do not have any effect on privately owned land.

Myself? If the Feds speak with forked tongue I’m aligning with the Queen because she dresses in a more dignified manner.
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei left behind a corrupt and repressive legacy, following his assassination on February 28.
Before his death, he was the longest-serving ruler in the Middle East, having taken power in 1989 following the death of his mentor Ruhollah Khomeini.
His 36 years and eight months leading Iran resulted in the mass repression of women, the slaughter of civilians and the funding of terror groups including Hamas and Hezbollah.
An Alberta judge has sentenced a transgender parent to five years in prison for stabbing his two children, a term that falls on the higher end of the scale for such offences.
Alice Michael Attwood received the sentence in provincial court. The Crown had been seeking five and a half years, while the defence argued for a term of three to four years.
After the United States and Israel launched military operations in Iran, wacky Jane Fonda decided to insert herself into the news again. At an anti-war demonstration in Los Angeles on Saturday, the 88-year-old Fonda said, “This is a desperate immoral act in the hopes that he (Trump) can score a victory and be declared war President. This political trick will generate support. I truly believe that enough people in this country have learned the lessons of the Vietnam War, the Iraq War, the war in Afghanistan, and other unnecessary and illegal wars, that we can say loud and clear: The people of the United States are here to tell the Trump administration, ‘You may wage this war in our names, but not with our consent.’
I appreciate Jane Fonda taking the time to come down from her multi million dollar house in the hills to tell all the Iranian people why their liberation is a bad thing pic.twitter.com/FOpo1s9KnF

Wary U.S. allies try to avoid getting drawn into criticizing Washington or attacking Tehran
As American and Israeli war planes finished their first attacks against Iran over the weekend, carefully worded statements from Western allies started to roll out.
Iran “must never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon,” said a spokesperson for the British government. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said he shared the U.S.’s interest in ending “this regime’s terror.” French President Emmanuel Macron insisted on diplomacy.
All said they weren’t involved in military action, but carefully skirted judgment of the legality of U.S. actions. No loud applause, no condemnation. Just “whispered warnings” about what it could spark, said French newspaper Le Monde.
I bet CBC hates this…

OTTAWA — Canada’s spy agency says India remains one of the main perpetrators of foreign interference and espionage against Canada, contradicting a claim by a senior government official last week that Indian agents are no longer linked to such crimes.
The Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) has repeatedly cited the Indian government as one of the main perpetrators of foreign interference and transnational repression in Canada in recent years.

The US has confirmed that three of their F-15 fighter jets were shot down by Kuwait in a friendly fire blunder – as video shows the $90million planes tailspinning in smoke to the ground.
Kuwait’s Defence Ministry said crews are safe after the crashes this morning, which saw at least two pilots eject from their planes near a US military base in Kuwait.
A US Central Command (CENTCOM) official confirmed that American military aircraft were ‘downed’ in Kuwait on Monday morning, as an Iraqi pro-militia outlet shared footage of a US pilot after ejecting from his aircraft in Kuwait City.
