I’m sure we would be able to talk this out over a beer or something to try and figure out who messed this up: The traveller, the Inuit people, the Canadian gov, or the journalists.

Underneath it all, it’s an outstanding achievement by Camilla that most of us would never be able to achieve. I can barely walk from my house to Tesco in Winter.

Not before he was able to purposefully take thousands of innocent people with him so he could still have the dollas.

This is not a record of any other race of female crossing that area alone in the winter time. Do you think people commonly traversed that terrain mid winter alone 5 centuries ago? The answer is "No", because that is suicide.

You are saying “No that’s suicide” but on the bbc article the Ms Kabloona says “On one of these annual 186-mile (300km) journeys, Ms Kabloona's grandmother went into labour and gave birth to her father in a tent along the way.”

Again, they aren't traveling alone in the middle of winter. Again, This is not a record of any other race of female crossing that area alone in the winter time. Again, it isn't a way of life to do that. It would have been suicide.

It’s not me disagreeing with you, it’s the people that live ON the land calling it total BS and defending that her claim or race is not accurate. Again ”Saying you're the 'first person' to do anything in an indigenous country is insulting.” it’s insulting because she probably didn’t. She might be the first woman to claim she did but it doesn’t make it true. At least if we are to believe the current people who live there.

She didn't report her own story to the editor of the BBC, and again, This is not a record of any other race of female crossing that area alone in the winter time.

I guess the point is not how the story came to be but the claim she made which was found out of order by the community living there.

The article clearly says that she traveled solo between these two communities “Qikiqtarjuaq to Pangnirtung”. A quick Google search will report that there were Inuit indigenous people living there for centuries. Do you think they traversed to each other by train during all this time? 😅

Besides, their own people who lives there confirms that this route has been used by many people before including women. Why would they lie? Guess they never really reported something like this to the park or government because why would they? It’s just their way of life.

I’m not saying she did it maliciously, and she apologised which is honourable but perhaps she didn’t really did her research about what she was getting into before doing the track.

No records of a White European female.

Never said it is and it’s not something I was looking to discuss when I commented on the thread. We can keep on the subject above on the courts ruling in favour of the non-secrecy request. If you don’t agree that’s okay with me 👍

It’s not enshrined anywhere but it should be covered under the Humans Rights Act of 1998 in the UK that outlines what constitutes the right to privacy. Since this Backdoor request has the potential to conflict with privacy rights, not only us the public but many people who work on these issues should be given access.

Good! We have the right to know!

Lol at the beginning of time it was a great community that raised a lot of awareness about the current relationship of society and work. It totally imploded from within as soon as it started to get traction on media and going to Reddit front pages.

[–] alecbowles@lemm.ee 5 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I deleted my own Reddit accounts after They started censoring posts and subreddits.

There was all too many fuckups in the last few years.

  • The API scandal
  • The wallstreetbets scandal
  • Spez and Fuck Reddit
  • the Antiwork community scandal
  • the Luigi censorship LGBT and EDI

They have no control of that platform their hands are tied. They are sold.
