T his Week’s Horoscope Aries

Taurus

Gemini

Cancer

Align yourself with friends who can help each other to reach the goals you set yourselves. Your hopes and wishes for the future are rekindled.

Your unique skills are once more stirred into action as you perceive the contribution you can make once you take up an opportunity that presents itself in your public life.

You revise your whole outlook on life and what it has to offer & tune into higher powers that can ease your fears about the future.

There is a chance to achieve healing and closure on previous upsets which have prevented you from achieving your true potential.

Aug 23 Sept 22

Sept 23 Oct 22

Leo

July 23 Aug 22 You are caught up in the optimism of the times as you sense a more optimistic era is about to open where you will find powerful allies for your plans & joint ventures.

While there are indigenous groups opposed to CDMs and other emission reducing schemes, it should be made clear that such projects on designated Indigenous land zones, need to partner with Indigenous groups in order to obtain their free, prior, informed consent, which is part of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. The Indigenous peoples need to be on the benefiting end of sustainable development projects supported through CDMs or other similar carbon trading mechanisms. Indeed there are concerns that Indigenous peoples’ way of life could be affected by the so-called REDD (Reduced Emissions through Deforestation and Forest Degradation) scheme; however, it should be considered an Indigenous Right worldwide to be able to continue practice long standing methods of agriculture including shifting agriculture and other traditional methods of food processing on areas designated as tribal lands, much like Canada’s entrenched Aboriginal Rights in the 1982 Canadian Constitution, where it states, “35. (1) The existing aboriginal and treaty rights of the aboriginal peoples of Canada are hereby recognized and affirmed”. While the talks are set to get underway in Copenhagen, this is the message that one indigenous person would like to send to climate change negotiators. —Troy Hunter, member of the Ktunaxa First Nation & LL.B. candidate with UVic
