On Monday this week, the Council of Canadians co-launched a timely briefing note on investment treaties and fracking bans with the Brussels-based Corporate Europe Observatory and Amsterdam-based Transnational Institute.

The Mind of Mulcair: The leader of the NDP on energy, climate change, and electoral reform
|
8.5.2013 |
rabble.ca - News for the rest of us |
| A decade ago a friend of mine spent a summer apprenticing as a page in the National Assembly of Québec during the time that Thomas Mulcair served as Minister of Sustainable Development, Environment, and Parks in the government of Jean Charest.
He described vividly how opposition Parti Québécois deputies were terrified of Mulcair. His encyclopedic knowledge, searing intellect and brilliant rhetorical gifts could shred a careless opponent.

Assimilating Canadians into the wisdom of Indigenous ancestors
|
23.4.2013 |
rabble.ca - News for the rest of us |
| Tuesday, April 23, 2013
If we're going to stand with our Indigenous neighbors, we'll have to start asking questions about whose land we’re standing on.
This year, the Idle No More movement called for Earth Day rallies to focus attention on the links between Indigenous issues and the environmental movement.
Events leading up to Earth Day included an impressive 'Nation2Nation' (N2N) dialogue between Haudenosaunee and Anishnawbeg leaders like Ellen Gabriel and Leanne Simpson and Canadian activist Naomi Klein in Toronto. (Watch videos of this event here and here .)

Kierra Johnson: On Rape Culture, Masculinity and Reproductive Justice

| The idea that it would be more practical to arm every woman than to teach men about rape is depressing -- and it's insulting to men. It's an extreme manifestation of the classic "boys will be boys" mentality -- and everyone but the "boys" are responsible. |
