Racist?!

How could a comment about taxpayer money being wasted be racist??  It can't be, but right on cue, the natives went wild when Doug Ford said they couldn't keep coming back for money if they protested every resource development the government tried to get going.

Ford has swallowed the racits koolaid.

They accused him of racism!  Then he had to walk back the comments and spend two hours in the wood shed under the switch of Chief Linda Debassige while she raked him over the coals.  Two hours!  He emerged hanging his head and apologizing publicly.

It's insane and so, so wrong.  But that's what the Indigenous have made of anyone who DARES say a word about them.  His comments weren't racist, they were TRUE!  Here's what he said:

They do come hat in hand and have for a couple of hundred years -- all the while objecting to every project that would generate wealth.  Duh!

As I said in my letter to 'The Calgary Herald', which went in the other day, you have to get the resources out of the ground and sell them to generate wealth -- wealth which is shared by the natives.  The Indigenous claim they want to develop plans together.  When have the natives ever approved of anything?  Rhetorical.  They don't have to.  No skin the game. 

This letter must mean I'm racist too!

Reflexive objecting is their go-to position.  We need to cut them off to get anything done.  But it'll never happen.

Sent another version to 'The Globe and Mail', but because of the Ford explosion, it won't get in.  The Globe is a bed-wetter newspaper most of the time.  Here's the letter: 

"Dear Editor,

"Consultation with the Indigenous is enshrined in the Constitution Act of 1982, but "consultation" does not necessarily mean "consent" and it most certainly does not mean "veto".  It is surprising that Minister Rebecca Chartrand is not aware of this.  A consent caveat also goes against the prime minister's objective to "build, build, build."     

"Canada has a wealth of natural resources, but you have to get them out of the ground and on to tide water to turn them into dollars.  The fact is that the billions given annually to the Indigenous will continue regardless of new resource development.  That means the Indigenous do not have skin in the game, as the expression goes --something which does not bode well for this country's optimum wealth development.

"I hope Indigenous leaders will reverse their automatic reflexive opposition to pipelines and instead work with the federal government to chart a prosperous path forward for the benefit of all."
