ICYMI: December 17-23

What I produced and consumed this week.

At Jacobin, I wrote about how the federal Liberals’ Sustainable Jobs Act, which finally made its way out of committee last week, is greatly weakened by the government’s embrace of false climate solutions in an effort to appease industry.

I wrote stories for Alberta Native News about Stoney Nakoda First Nation’s effort to stop two developments that will double the size of the Town of Canmore, which they say were approved without consultation, and an Ojibwe version of Star Wars: A New Hope that is in development.

At Big Shiny Takes, Mount Royal University sociologist Muhannad Ayyash joined us to read through a Don Braid column arguing that Calgary’s mayor should resign for skipping out on a pro-Israel rally thinly disguised as a menorah lighting ceremony.
