  • As of April 2025, no bodies have been exhumed from the suspected gravesites, largely due to a lack of community consensus on whether to investigate detected anomalies at the risk of disturbing burials. As of January 2024, at least three official excavations had been performed with no bodies discovered, though at least one excavation only investigated a portion of the reported ground anomalies at that site.

    Disputes regarding the conclusiveness of the evidence has helped spawn a movement of denialism about the existence of some or all residential school burial sites. Indigenous groups and academics have dismissed claims of a "mass grave hoax", saying that claimed discoveries of mass graves were present in a minority of stories published by mainstream media and that there had been public misinterpretation of what had actually been announced in 2021. Federal Justice Minister David Lametti said in 2023 that he was open to outlawing residential school denialism. His successor, Arif Virani, has not taken a position on the issue.

  • First off I am glad this scumbag has been charged and sits in jail.

    Secondly I have little doubt that Trump helped push the investigation through to this point so America would stop talking about - and focusing on - the Epstein papers.

    Please don't let the orange dipshit get away with that.

  • It seems too many of us forget that WE pay the tariff that Carney imposes on products imported from the US.

    I understand being pissed that Carney has reneged on his promise, but I fail to get why we should be upset about our tariffs being dropped.

    As has been said here already, we simply fight back by not purchasing anything that comes from Trumpland.

  • The Canadian Justice Council’s guidelines, which have been adopted by the Alberta Provincial Justices’ Association, state that all partisan political activity must cease upon appointment and judges should refrain from membership in political parties, political fundraising and “contributing to political parties or campaigns.”

    Rules for thee but not for me.

    The hypocrisy is astounding.

  • Here's some more info ...

    According to CNN, the shooter is allegedly the ex-boyfriend of a woman who lived in the farmhouse on Haar Road where Wednesday's incident occurred.

    On Tuesday, Sept. 16, the woman reportedly observed the shooter stalking the house in a cornfield close by, and notified authorities.

    The woman allegedly reported the incident to the Northern York County Regional Police Department to obtain an arrest warrant and a restraining order.

    Officials attempted to serve the shooter with the warrant on Tuesday night but were unable to find him, law enforcement said.

    Officers with the NYCRPD returned to the house to do a follow-up visit on Wednesday, which was when the shooter opened fire from a nearby cornfield. Three officers from the NYCRPD were killed.

    The shooter then allegedly began moving toward the house where he exchanged gunfire with three York County Sheriff's. Two of the York County Sheriffs were struck and injured, but one returned fire and killed the shooter, according to officials.

  • Perhaps most insidiously, these aren’t actually debates at all. They’re performances designed to generate specific emotional reactions for viral distribution. Participants aren’t trying to persuade anyone or genuinely engage with opposing viewpoints. They’re trying to create moments that will get clipped, shared, and monetized across social media.

    Here's the tl:dr version.

  • Authorities said an investigation into Zinn led to the discovery of explicit material on his phone, including more than 20 images of children between the ages of 5 and 12. Court records also cite graphic messages in which Zinn admitted to being aroused by the material.

    First off, I am in no way, shape or form defending the use of child pornography here ...

    but I have to wonder if the authorities are telling the whole truth. I mean how many paedophiles would only have a few pics on their phone?

    Never mind the 'authorities' (aka cops) saying he admitted to being aroused by the pics.

    It all sounds more than a little sus to me. Time will tell if the charges stand or are dismissed.

  • Drug Fraud, Joe Warmington and Nolan Quinn should all go back to school and learn how to disseminate truth from fiction.

  • This study critically reviews the existing models and concludes that focused deep heat and gas from below the permafrost may be the key factor allowing the formation of GECs, while atmospheric heating indirectly triggers their formation by accelerating cryogenic process rates and the formation of new lakes and rivers. GECs appear to be associated with faulting in the area and form where sub-lake or sub-river talik structures meet local thinning of the permafrost.
