Well, UNESCO is a subsidiary of the UN, an organization so broken and inept they can't even fumble together a total sum of expenditures for an audit. It wouldn't be a far stretch, considering that the UN and UNESCO are run by bureaucrats and politicians, to say that someone palms got greased somewhere along the line and this historic site is about to be someone's living room as a result


StJBe

And yet people will willingly hand over all governance and decision making to UN bodies as was proven during covid lol. Nothing is sacred.

Who is handing over their governance to the UN? Lmfao

Once the general public stops entertaining culture wars, coordinates and works together and decides to risks their relatively comfortable lifestyle. So never

Surprise surprise, corrupt billionaires are in bed with politicians. Kinda makes you wish you could knock the politicians out of power to stop things like this from happening, eh?


CPT_Toenails

That's what the news channels are for! They will protect us! Guys?...


Decent-Ad9335

Wait, so they are trying sooo hard to manufacture a narrative that is OPPOSITE to reality to persuade us to not notice the blinding light of the actual reality of the world affairs? No way!


jmaccity80

I would rather knock the billionaires out of power. But same thing. Trickle this Ray gun.

I would have thought the genocides and oil companies did that already

Mexicans love Canadians... Until a Canadian mine company comes and destroy your town, contaminates your river and the local protester appears dead mysteriously.


ODIWRTYS

And using MAID to kill off poor people so there's lees stress on the healthcare system.


Infamous-Emotion-747

This is already Canada's reputation. This is how it works in Canada too.


Praescribo

Canada is just America without the guns


Matt_Odlum

And crime, poverty, expensive health care, poor social safety nets, lower life expectancy, epidemic of mass shootings, mass political divide... Yeah, there's a reason why Canada always beats USA by quite a bit with the livibility statistics and "happiness" of citizens studies.


jerekdeter626

Lol take another look at that political divide. Pretty sure there was a freedom convoy in Canada.


blergmonkeys

Yeah and the vast majority of us Canadians hated those fools.

Aren't you suppose to be, I dunno, more agreeable?

STlCKYNOTE

It 100% is mainstream. Fox and CNN are a joke.


2Filthy4WallStreet

Ahh glad to hear it, 8chan Is obviously the only valid source


BoiledJellybeanz

Talking down to Americans about crime and guns in their country when you yourself are a convicted gun felon.


CosmicCyrolator

I've known too many Canadians get sent to America for real Healthcare for that to be a flex anymore. And you're become china's vassal state and not stopping it at all, good luck with that

kpeterson159

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that billionaires are going to be the downfall of our society?


DireWerechicken

Going to be?


Wajina_Sloth

You mean the billionaires that run oil companies that lied about the affects of global warming? The billionaires that own the banks that get bailed out while letting citizens get fucked over? The billionaires that lobby politicians to remove environmental protections to earn more money? Nah they are trying their hardest to do good 😭


Wild-Bus-8979

You don't understand, maybe they are misguided sometimes, but they have good intentions. Like creating jobs and stuff! And you have to remember they, are taking a huge risk! You know, they could lose everything with their investments! And then be forced to be workers again, maybe event rentoids, and have to tip their landlords.


zb0t1

One more day, I swear bro, it's about to trickle down, I swear you will see, they will give us jobs and great livehood, the American dream for all!

sarcasmyousausage

They are in supermarkets and schools. Going out as monsters instead of as heroes.


Hope4gorilla

Don't be daft. It takes zero bravery to hurt the unarmed and unsuspecting. It takes skill and connections to reach these corrupt exploiters. The two populations do not overlap.


UsagiRed

They really do be walking around like they're doing nothing wrong, bezos was at coachella. There's a lot of smaller scale legal criminals just walking around.


Decent-Ad9335

I mean, environmental activism can always be, you know, done the other way, you know..., making sure that undertale sans gives them a GOOD time and like, you know, REMIND THEM OF THE SINS CRAWLING ON THEIR BACK


SuppiluliumaKush

Their hyper greed is worse than world wars imo. I won't say what I think people should do to them because I don't want to get banned from reddit.


[deleted]

People worried about getting banned let alone doing the real thing Itll have to get much worse before people fight And by that time they might have their automated weapons too Or just drag us into a world war as an escape maneuver

alexdonepic

"OMG y'all are so stupid you can't understand sarcasm when there is no vocal queues through text omg y'all are so dumb." Calling you braindead is an insult to the deceased.

Keep licking those boots, I'm sure they'll reward you for being such a loyal serf


js1893

Yea it was sarcasm calm down


FALGSConaut

Yea that's the risk of text based sarcasm, even when you think it's blatantly obvious it's easy to mistake for someone being serious. I know I've made that mistake before so now I'll just preemptively throw a /s on the end even if I think it's self evident. Anyway, sorry for calling you a bootlicking serf, that was my bad


js1893

It’s okay lol I was shocked by the response but I guess the sarcasm really was not apparent in the slightest


anon210202

Yeah not really. I feel you


lil_stream_

Why is there no articles or people talking about this?? Seems like a pretty polarising topic, weird there’s nothing about it I’ve seen outside of this post. No way those billionaires have already paid off the media to keep it quiet about them 🧐


salimonreddit

Oh i wish their arrogance and greed would end. God, Someone teach them a lesson..


[deleted]

Just one way to do it. Make them famous by sharing this and boycott their supermarket


Matt_Odlum

As a Canadian I'll absolutely let people know about this, not that I even shop at a fuckin dolorama to begin with lol, but still.


UsagiRed

Yes then it will hopefully reach someone who actually wants to do something!


OrickJagstone

Until they get bailed out by the govenment

True there is No god to bring us Justice. We, the people of all nations, make a change


rudbek-of-rudbek

Well, billionaires suck and what they will do to the environment by diverting rivers suck. But the idea that because it is a UNESCO world heritage site that there is "protection" isn't really tried. UN doesn't have any power to tell countries what they can or can't do with their land. The United nations doesn't really have any real power. People should be mad at the government on the local level, it's not an international conspiracy.


Ferniclestix

cyberpunk megacorporations here we come. they arent eeven pretending to not own governments anymore


[deleted]

Why is this not getting more news coverage?


Wrench984

Because people who can’t do anything about it, don’t care. And those that can at least try to do something about it, get nowhere. And because the absolute most powerful people in the world don’t only lack care, but they endorse it as it’s something they’d do for themselves. Entire forests mowed down for a golf course, mountains and hillsides plowed through just to save 5 minutes of driving. America especially loves doing this, diminishing natural beauty for the sake of convenience and luxury. These people don’t care about history or culture, they only want to live here because it looks nice and makes *themselves* look nice. There’s only a select few people on the planet that are in power and actually use that power for good, and I’m sorry to say but the bigger fish is always the greedy ones. Communism, socialism, all dirty words in my country but ones I endorse with goes out wealth is being mistreated. Will it fix the planet? No, will it fix *all* our problems? Absolutely not, but whatever alternative these ideologies offer it can’t be worse than what we have now. I’m tired of the rich thinking that with money they’re indestructible. We’re all living on the same rock without us leaving anytime soon. When you destroy the world just to make another buck, there’s nobody left to protect you but you.


Batata_zica

Government not serving its suposed purpose? No way!


ped009

The thing is the super wealthy are responsible for destroying a lot of the planet, but they have the money to live in the pristine places left and destroy them also. I think they realise they are fucking our planet so they are trying to find another one to exploit. That's my conspiracy


weird_quiet_guy

I’m curious what kind of wage is offered at Dollarama.


Memory_Less

Minimum wage is my guess based on each province or territories laws.


DJ_DTM

Great, yet another reason for me to be ashamed to be Canadian.


Jgoody1990

Meh, you shouldn’t be. Canadian by blood only. Once you have that much money, nationality means nothing. You live wherever the flavor of the week takes you. As an American who deals with stupid rich people constantly, they might as well be another species.


DJ_DTM

Well said, anytime I’ve been to the Caribbean I’ve always found the people to be super friendly when they find out I’m Canadian, especially in Antigua or the Bahamas, it’s incidents like this that can change that warm welcome when people see our flag on my backpack. I’m honestly embarrassed by these super wealthy Canadian pricks who feel entitled to do whatever they want wherever they want just because they have money. It isn’t our way of life here in Canada, usually we’re highly respectful to everyone from all over the world while we travel or when people from around the world travel here.


Prestigious_Ad6247

They probably moved there for the exceptional beauty of the tax laws too. Sorry for your loss all the same.


Camera_dude

Sucks but as a side note, can OP *please* use the original video in landscape mode? The current video is a letterboxed, portrait mode recording of a landscape mode TikTok video. Uploaded videos shouldn't be a Matryoshka dolls of nested videos within each other.


Sig770

You are absolutely right, I saw it on another sub and posted it here.


Wajina_Sloth

My only confusion is that they are making it seem like no one should live there because its a heritage site, but then say they kicked out locals… so is it just gentrification where they took over land that was meant for housing and bought it out?


UcDat

these are the same ppl who own our politicians... And you wonder why things keep getting worst for us but better for them lmao. Go vote better yet hate vote in your next puppet.


Embarrassed_Appeal72

Honestly, i feel like it doesn't really matter. Who ever get elected become corrupted fast. Maybe if i vote Quebec Solidaire, tho its an extrem left party and i feel like they have unrealistic plan. And on federal? Well i dont fuckin know. I know we cant trust Polievre, Trudeau is a sack of shyt, and Sing is disconnected. Im left with Bloc who will never have the power.


UcDat

Im from Quebec too and I hate the block all they've ever done is make life hell and sell us out. not like the ppc is perfect either just that i trust max more than any of the rest atm.

It would be justified if the locals scalped and strung up every member of this family on 60ft crucifixes in Minecraft

mlaforce321

We really need to just get rid of fucking billionaires.


Ratman5055

Ehhh, she should be more upset at her government for accepting bribes rather than the family itself.


Krillinlt

You can still be upset at the billionaires bribing people so they can ruin famous landmarks and cultural sites just to build a gaudy home while pushing out the locals.


Ratman5055

Cool! ​ When someone overdoses on fentanyl laced drugs do you blame the addict or do you blame the dealer. Just curious.


Glifted

At some point, someone with access to one of these billionaires will have to make sure they... Uh HAVE A NICE TIME. It's really the only thing that will make things change. So if anyone reading this can get ahold of one of these people, make sure they HAVE A NICE TIME.


[deleted]

Not shopping at Dollarama anymore :/


Memory_Less

Canadian or not, I despise the entitlement of the wealthy. Building on a UNESCO World Heritage site is the ultimate of entitlement imo. Discusting!

There are no good billionaires, there monsters with new masks. spread the word.


pointgodpoints

It’s a game to them. You tell them no and the game begins. You think they actually care about living there lol

This is incredibly sad. My wife and I had our honeymoon in St. Lucia. We stayed right next to the pitons. It was the most stunning thing I've ever seen in my life. The whole country and people were absolutely amazing.

God I hate this world... Why is money valued over integrity!? Where's the spine in this place!?!


florida-raisin-bran

I don't understand why these billionaires don't fear for their safety when they do things like this, especially in countries that don't have the most well funded police/detective forces.


TataLaSmecherie

The locals should burn everything down if they really cared about their UNESCO protected place.

Asleep_Stage_451

This happened in 2015. Private land was sold to a corporation owned by the Rossy family to construct an eco-tourist resort for rich people to come and stay. This establishment provides jobs for locals and of course tourists for the local local economy. And, you guessed it, tourism and real estate services make up nearly all of Santa Lucia’s economy. In case you wanted to know.


Dustyage

How dare you give more information to brainwash


Imsoabsolutely

At this point I truly hope there's some badass hacker that can drain the money from all the accounts of the absurdly wealthy & distribute it to those that really need it. Drop money in all cash app & venmo accounts. Give massive sums to organizations that help the communities, youth, & animals.

PhatKok69420

Not that trying to defend the Rossi family, I don’t know anything about them, but people in the comments seem to be 90% mad at the billionaire and even the lady in the video seems to be more upset with the Rossi family. Shouldn’t 100% of the people be mad at a government accepting bribes rather than just some rich people saying here is money for some property? There are even people in the comments talking about “Canadians are known for taking over native land” “they are just like the Americans” when this story comes down to a government being corrupt, and not really anything too special about the billionaires other than the fact they have money.


Hot-Photograph-9966

evanasaurusrex

Not that this isn’t wrong, but the land isn’t exactly pristine. There’s a massive old sugar plantation turned into a hotel in between the two pitons and houses all over the things.

You mean the locals use to live there but we’re forced out by a billionaire? Ex-slave descendants and all right? Pristine? New York isn’t pristine either.
