Files documenting the worst abuses at residential schools are set to be destroyed in 2027 and, despite a multi-year outreach, some survivors say they didn’t know they could opt to have their files preserved.

Of the 38,000 people who filed claims with the IAP, 90 per cent had a hearing or settlement negotiation, according to the IAP website.

The process was made confidential so survivors would be comfortable sharing painful and personal details. It also meant that any people associated with the schools who were accused of abuse would not have those details made public.

The question of what to do with the files afterward arrived at the Supreme Court in 2017. The NCTR and the Canadian government opposed the destruction of the files, while many Catholic organizations, lawyers who acted for IAP claimants and the Assembly of First Nations supported destroying them.

The rising fatality figures come one day after the public learned a teenage skateboarder had died after colliding with an SUV last week.

The teen didn’t collide with the SUV … the SUV hit and killed the teen.

Federal judges ruled Thursday that Alabama intentionally diluted the voting strength of Black residents when it drew congressional lines and said the state must continue using a court-ordered map that led to the election of the state’s second Black congressman.

… may disrupt sleep …

The opperative word there is “may”. They are not saying it does, only that it may.

No, because they were studying how plastic toxins affects cells at the molecular level. This study will lead to other studies to check people’s toxin levels vs their sleep patterns.

All city halls are filled with assholes it seems.

They won’t have guns.

The bill establishes some rules for the younger guards, including policies that they cannot obtain or use firearms or transport inmates outside of prisons.

As always, ACAB.

George – “So is this about lessening our relationship with the United States economically?”

Carney – “It’s about enhancing our relationship with others.”

Good answer. Lol

Canads’s border service guards are just as bad as cops … all the power and zero accountability.

Shouldn’t laws be (almost) immutable? As in the only way they can be altered is through the courts or by Congress?

If that isn’t the case, and things being as they are, the law is meaningless when it comes to Trump. He ignores rulings he doesn’t like, outright disobeys court-ordered actions, lies to the court (through lawyers) and lies to Congress and Americans all the time.

At this point I’m not sure that’s as important as it should be, because Trump is, in effect, doing whatever he wants – including ignoring the courts.

Do you have a link? 'Cause afaik Judge James Boasberg is fighting Trump over his refusal to bring back at least one of the men sent to CECOT.

Feeling shame indicates someone has a conscience and I’m not sure all 9 justices do.

To me, this whole thing has nothing to do with Diddy so much as it is about a judge who is uncomfortable with the fact that there are valid criticisms to be had surrounding race and the courts.

Here’s the thing tho, that lawyer isn’t even part of the defense team. He’s simply a spectator in the courtroom who happens to be a lawyer and that’s what the judge is holding him accountable for, ie: he should know the rules and keep his mouth shut.

I think we could give some leeway for a lawyer pointing out the racial politics of having 6 white female prosecutors outside the fucking courtroom

If he had said something about 6 white male prosecutors would you have still said the same thing? Probably not.

Carney used “tranformational” twice, then Trump tried to use it but lost his train of thought.

That was the end of my watching tv cause my head hurt from his utter fucking stupidity.

Well that’s an easy block.

Got proof?

'Cause when Carney was in charge of the BoC during the 2008-09 meltdown Canada didn’t do so bad. Zero banks went under and hundreds of thousands of people didn’t lose their homes.
