⚡ Política

  1. Poilievre pide protección de derechos de propiedad. El líder conservador Pierre Poilievre causó revuelo en North Vancouver al abogar por los derechos de los propietarios, enfatizando la importancia de la seguridad de la propiedad en medio de políticas cambiantes.

  2. ¡El embalse Site C cambia de nombre! Oficialmente rebautizado en honor al ex primer ministro John Horgan, la represa se mantiene firme mientras los lugareños reconocen su historia controvertida. ¿Qué opinas sobre este homenaje?

  3. La Corte Suprema considerará la apelación de la C.B. sobre las reclamaciones mineras. El potencial conflicto legal en torno a los derechos minerales ha suscitado importantes conversaciones sobre los derechos indígenas y el medio ambiente que no pueden ser ignoradas.


🎉 Historias que hacen sentir bien
