Please, please … respect the legal lines and priorities in Canada. The First Nations are ahead of you. Also, watch out for a backlash from Australian indigenous people.

Like all of these projects, they would have drained all the money out of the shell company incorporated solely to shield them from liability, and left a massive ecological disaster behind that costs more to clean up than the project ever even made.
Even if they win, the government would probably have been stuck forking out that much money anyways.

That’s pretty well known isn’t it?

The Tyee calling the CPTPP a „little-known trade agreement“ is either the dumbest thing I’ve seen in a news article in a long time, or calling me old for being aware of politics at ~16 in 2018.

I can see why no one wants to invest in this country if we deny all investment applications. And people wonder why the economy is bad and cost of living is high… huh. Go figure.

Kick her out, don’t pay a dime and keep her on the no fly list. Don’t need any billionaires in Canada, most of all foreign billionaires! Get stuffed.

It’s funny how a company can sue a government for billions of dollars for being unfair, but if the same company intentionally poisoned water reserves and killed a bunch of people you’d be lucky to be able to give them a stern warning.

The context and legal base is based on the process of approval and that it was the government policy that ended it, not the company regardless if they choose to go fowars with the project. They did already purchase the land which is effectively useless, the treaty seems to allow a multi nation tribunal to see if there are in fact damages to either party.

The government writes the rules. Let’s change them so foreign interests can’t hurt Canadians!
