There are two Canadian mining companies (East Africa Minerals and Parallel Mining) active in the Tigray region of Ethiopia, where the Ethiopian state is waging a genocidal war against the oppressed Tigrayan people. Canada refuses to call on the Ethiopian state to break its seige or even end our aid to the state (most of which goes towards mining projects). Literally, the needs of these Canadian mining corporations dictate our foreign policy and makes the Canadian state an ongoing sponsor of genocide. https://springmag.ca/message-to-trudeau-stop-canadas-support-for-the-war-on-tigray
Yes, absolutely! And the dictate is the same: private corporations and private profit!
Hell, Vale had a dam collapse in Brazil that killed 259 and Bolsonaro only made them pay a pittance because they've been buddies since day one.
Canada, like the rest of the world, has 'progressed' from Keynesian economics to neoliberalism. Both committed to maintaining capitalism but Justin Trudeau cannot even feign trying to meet the needs of workers.
i remember when the keeynesian future was like a jetsons inspired 4 hour workday sort of FALSC achieved through capitalism (lol). now the best future neoliberalism can envision is a decentralized zero ownership system where everyone rents the few owned items and properties from each other and megacorporations for all eternity as wages crater. oh and the rich might yeet us into space to be slaves
:ypg-brace: Ya know what? I'm coming out as pro sovereign citizen.
I hate the government and I love gold, when did this stop being cool?
