Autonomy and True North strong and free.

Ottawa based Labrador has an interesting spin on the re-cycled autonomy claims for NL.

Just recently there was a little booklet released of Inuktitut legal terminology for use in the provincial courts.
One of the Inuktitut terms for the English term “Accidental Death” translates back into English as “Died without trying”. Just saying and pointing out that translating legal, health, business, investing etc terminology from English to Inuktitut is a very difficult and convoluted process. Sort of a work in progress or a living dictionary.

So it will be interesting to see how autonomy translates. Bloody hypocrite would be another good one to try, and then anonymous commentators can use it on me.

The New North has interesting parallels to the spiel that the Junior mining companies, or penny stocks as they were called, used when the exploration frenzy was under way in this area post Voisey’s Bay nickel find.
Little to no mention or attention paid to the residents of the area, just what lay beneath the tundra, mountains sea and ice, like one community member said of a couple of JM company nobs, " look at your eyes, they are like dollar signs".

Speaking of commentators, I have enabled comments monitoring, starting to get some weird spammy stuff coming in.
