The “enhanced care model,” replaced #litigation based model & provides set amounts of #compensation by #injury type to victims, regardless of fault & without a referral. It eliminates most victims’ #RightToSue.
The federal government has added $36.4 million to a program designed to support people who have been seriously injured or killed by vaccines since the end of 2020.
The program was announced shortly after #COVID19 shots first became available to the public, and provides financial compensation to people who were adversely affected by #Health#Canada approved vaccines.
Crown #IndigenousRelations Minister Gary Anandasangaree & #Matsqui First Nation Chief Alice McKay jointly announced the settlement, compensating for the federal government's taking of land in 1908 for #Vancouver Power Company right-of-way.
“All due respect to the men, but how come there’s no women on that committee?”
Implementation of the $23.3 billion child and family settlement will start to role out to class members in 2024.
At the Assembly of First Nations special chiefs assembly Dec. 5, chiefs raised concerns over process, including how the members of the Settlement Implementation Committee were chosen and resulted in all men appointed.
The tax shall be repeated in the following year, regardless of #layoffs. If more layoffs follow, it is extended until a full fiscal year without layoffs passes.
The proceeds are split 50/50 between government and the laid-off employees.
Inch by inch, bit by bit (very punny*), #SAGAFTRA and #AMPTP#strike negotiations continue on, with meetings scheduled for Wednesday, and SAG-AFTRA asking members to congregate picketing outside #Disney#studios as that studio enters the first day it can begin negotiations with #Comcast regarding ownership of #Hulu.
*#AI may be the largest obstacle, though #compensation is also not fully resolved.
Ok. it's (also?) every #ScheduleF#actor who earns above the minimum for #tv or #film that the #AMPTP is targeting for #AI scanning and unrestricted use after an actor dies.
Yes, #GeorgeClooney, et al., they want to use you forever, without additional #compensation or approval once you're dead.
"The people who launched the campaign to take a deal — they’d be f—ked if we took this deal..."
The #SAGAFTRA#union is right in refusing to budge on this issue.
@MattBinder In #Canada recent legislation ( #billC18 ) that came into force basically said social media sites and search engines can't link directly to legitimate Canadian#news sources without paying or negotiating some #compensation directly to those news sources. Seems fair, I mean they #scrape the articles and shove them in your faces with their own ads, stripping off the news site's ads.
Facebook and Google responded with a tantrum. "Pay? For news we scrape? FINE, NO NEWS FOR ANYONE". 1/
I should receive #financial#compensation every time #someone#says "post #covid" we aren't post shit cases are ramping up so high we are approaching 2020 levels and #people are becoming permanently #disabled by long covid every goddamn day "post covid" you're about to experience #post#LIFE
"One year on from the historic legal decision linking the human rights of #TorresStrait Islander people to inaction on #ClimateChange, the #Australian government is maintaining its rejection of a key United Nations finding to award them #compensation."
Because bullies deny their own actions, and climate bullies are no different.
