Ontario Gov Lowkey 'Bout to Drop Sus Mining Law ⛏️😬

The Tea is Spilled

Okay, so listen up, fam. The Ontario government is straight-up about to drop this mining law, Bill 5, that's kinda sus. Basically, it lets them pause any regular laws (like, provincial and municipal laws) for certain mining projects if they think it'll bring in the big bucks. Like, hold up, that's kinda wild, right?

But here's the real kicker: First Nations are not vibing with this AT ALL. They're saying it's a major L for their rights and that nobody's listening to their concerns. They're so heated they're threatening to throw up blockades and cause some real chaos. And tbh, I don't blame them.

Premier Ford, though? He's playing it cool, but with a major side-eye. He's like, "Nah, don't even think about blockades, or you'll catch these hands. We'll bring in the police." He also mentioned he might use the notwithstanding clause if someone tries to challenge the bill, but he's tryna play it cool, saying he'll "cross that bridge" when he gets there.

The government is speedrunning this thing, too. They're trying to push it through ASAP and not letting anyone talk about it too much. The opposition tried to slow it down, but it's still on track for a final vote. So yeah, get ready for some drama, y'all.
