For the record, while most provinces allow police to file charges directly, BC, Quebec, and New Brunswick are the only provinces that require Crown Counsel to approve charges.

That said, for **all** provinces in Canada, speech-related offences require Attorney General's consent for charges.

Union Pressures Thomson Reuters to Rethink Selling Tools to ICE | The Tyee

Union Pressures Thomson Reuters to Rethink Selling Tools to ICE | The Tyee - sh.itjust.works

As the expiry date nears for two of Thomson Reuters’ contracts with the United States Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, one B.C. union is sounding the alarm over human rights concerns. Thomson Reuters is a Toronto-based technology company that owns Reuters News Agency and the legal research tool Westlaw. It has several contracts providing the U.S. agencies access to its investigative research tools. One US$5.9-million contract, which gives the Department of Homeland Security access to Thomson Reuters’ criminal investigation database CLEAR, is set to expire this month. A second, US$22.8-million contract, which gives Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, access to a “law enforcement investigative database,” is set to expire at the end of May. With a market cap of US$39 billion, Thomson Reuters is majority-controlled by Woodbridge Co. Ltd. The BC General Employees’ Union holds a small share of the company. The union has been raising concerns about the potential of Thomson Reuters’ investigative tools to surveil and track people.

Can Avi Lewis Be the NDP’s Wilderness Guide? | The Tyee

Can Avi Lewis Be the NDP’s Wilderness Guide? | The Tyee - sh.itjust.works

In his speech, Avi Lewis vowed “to bring our party back from the wilderness.” What map, then, will he follow to inspire a fractured party and attract new voters to its retooled agenda? Lewis pledged to be laser focused on the affordability crisis. He called out the genocide in Gaza, declaring, “We are at a high-stakes moment in human history.” Lewis’s policies include creating public grocery stores and banks, building public housing and expanding health-care access. He also wants a moratorium on building AI data centres. He has vowed to make proportional representation the NDP’s “one demand” if the party holds the balance of power in Parliament. And not surprisingly, Lewis has floated the idea of a wealth tax. Lewis and other activists wrote the Leap Manifesto in 2015 — a radical response to climate change, income inequality and racism. He continues to propose an end to new oil production. In the past, such ideas have not necessarily gone over well with voters. Lewis ran in federal elections in 2015 and 2021, losing both times.
