narF 😵✌️We are paying hundreds of millions of dollars for a special police force that exists only to protect big oil corporations.
Since when is that even acceptable??! The images in this video are so shocking!

"A controversial RCMP unit in B.C. acts as a de facto private security force for resource companies, and not for public safety, according to critics and many Indigenous communities. The Fifth Estate’s Steven D'Souza uncovers leaked documents that show how industry leaders influenced RCMP bosses who are part of the Community-Industry Response Group (C-IRG)."

It’s handy how they have identified both the sponsor and the target in the name, the Community-targetting Industry Response Group
Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸@narF This is why right wing governments want to end the CBC.
@chris Because they want to keep this a secret?
@narF pretty much. CBC is the only org willing to do this kind of investigation that can also make it a national story people will notice
Dana McFarland 🍁 🔥🐎@chris @narF independent and local media also have been on this story for years e.g. Fairy Creek https://archive-it.org/collections/13709?q=fairy+creek&fc=meta_Format%3ANews+media
And there was this, for those who may have missed it

@danamcfarland @narF @thenarwhal @thetyee Certainly. However, unfortunately neither of those two sectors get the kind of national political impact that the CBC can produce. The CBC also often amplifies that local or niche coverage. The private broadcasters almost never do.
