Western Intelligence Still Cannot Figure Out Russian President Putin
Isolated - President Putin chairs a meeting in February 2022 *BBC:* *Ukraine war: Western agents seek to get inside Putin's head* Russia's leader Vladimir Putin is trapped in a closed world of his own making, Western spies believe.

‘Historic’ Aboriginal Land Title Trial To Begin In B.C. Supreme Court
When Captain James Cook encountered the ancestors of the Nuchatlaht people in 1778, the British explorer wrote in his journal that he had "no where met with Indians who had such high notions of every thing the Country produced being their exclusive property."
