A minefield of racial divides, violence and human rights violations is about to explode in Blue River, B.C., over the expansion of Canada’s Trans Mountain pipeline (TMX).
On Saturday, July 25, tensions mounted in Blue River, B.C., a tiny community of just 260 people encircled by a backdrop of a stunning mountainous landscape along Highway 5.
It’s situated at the confluence of the Blue and North Thompson Rivers, where part of the TMX expansion is underway.
New Westminster-Burnaby MP Peter Julian is pushing forward with his motion that Canada institute a wealth tax.
Julian has submitted M-43, a private member’s bill that the federal government “should immediately implement a 1% wealth tax on fortunes over $20 million.”
