It was a winter of heavy snowfall along some parts of the northern coast of Labrador. Strata of white stuff kept thickening under leaden skies, to the point that it reached halfway up the window of Simon Kohlmeister’s office, five metres from the ground.
In his 61 years as an Inuit man in northern Labrador, Kohlmeister had never seen anything like it. He put a call in to his boss: could he take the caribou carcasses to the community freezer, which is a kind of food bank of country food for people in some northern Labrador communities? Later that day, he got the permit. The caribou could be used for a community feast.
More than 100 people, young and old, came despite the storm, and the mood was joyous. “Some people never had caribou meat for a long, long time so they were right happy,” Ittulak recalls. “We were right happy having caribou meat.”

Alabama is closer than we think - Macleans.caAnne Kingston: Canadians who reassure themselves that the southern state's abortion ban couldn't possibly ever happen here haven't been paying attention anne_kingston Even if any party wanted to self-inflict that mortal wound, and even in the unlikely event it were to pass the senate, a new law would never get past the SCC. Alabama is a conservative state. Canada is not a conservative country, even when the CPC_HQ is in power. anne_kingston What a hysterical (pun intended) piece. 'Forced birth'? Oh please. There are so many effective birth control methods. Use them. In cases of rape, why should the innocent child die to atone for the sins of the father? This is primitive indeed. anne_kingston Did you read your other article on this subject?

That old Liberal story: the 'hidden agenda' - Macleans.caAndrew MacDougall: Why are Liberals tweeting and petitioning and fundraising about access to abortion, which is not under threat in Canada? They're in panic mode. Or maybe because American States are passing radical laws supported by religious fundamentalist PC MPP’s here in Ontario. Seriously Maclean’s,. Get your journalistic shit together. With respect AGMacDougall, it’s trending that way in the US, and the party leading in the polls here supports an anti choice position. This is demonstrably true. Words saying “the debate won’t reopen” is a far cry from supporting choice from a party using US RW tactics. cdnpoli Has MacDougall got his head buried in CPC Propaganda or just ordinary BS? The Risk is Very great! Look to US, esp Alabama. In Canada CPC & PC MPs are attending Anti-Abortion Rallies. Fed CPC win + 7 PC provinces & Constitution can be opened & Charter Rights removed! cdnpoli
