He gets the dunce cap

 “Under the auspices of B.C.’s Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People’s Act, Premier David Eby has admitted that provincially significant projects on Crown land will not be expedited under its own fast-track law without the consent of Indigenous groups. At the same time, an effective veto is already being written into a growing number of agreements with Indigenous groups covering vast swaths of the province.”

Yep, that's NDP Premier David Eby of British Columbia effectively strangling economic development and further crippling Canada's economy.  What a dunce!  Does he not know that three quarters of Canadians support building a new oil pipeline to the West or East?  Obviously not.  He behaves as it he's still in high school writing essays and doing projects on never-never green projects.  Dave, you're the premier.  Until green is ubiquitous, we still need oil!

Tanker ban still in place off the B.C. coast effectively blocking all oil exports to market.  Great job, Messers Carney and Eby!

Although not all Indigenous tribes are against development -- Chief Clarence Louie of the Osoyoos Band in B.C. being a strong and sane supporter of economic growth -- many are.  And for no reason, except to say they are against the Feds.  Why?  Just because.

The majority are lined up against Bill C-5 because, frankly, they have no skin in the game.  The billions given them by the Canadian taxpayer will be doled out with or without any shovel digging into any piece of dirt.  Said Jason Schulz, executive director of strategic advisory services of the Athabasca Chipewyan Band, "I'm sure if we asked a number of different individuals, their perspective on what those consultation requirements might entail could vary greatly."

I'm sure they would, Mr. Schulz, because most chiefs think "consultation" means "veto".  But in spite of what Dave Eby thinks, it doesn't.
