Wall Street billionaire and Ksi Lisims LNG investor Marc Rowan has a new project: turning the bloody rubble of Gaza into a beachfront playground for the ultra-rich.

As a member of the eight-man executive overseeing the misleadingly named “Board of Peace,” Rowan reports directly to Chairman-for-life Donald Trump.

Unlike a legitimate international organization, the Board of Peace operates more like a sole proprietorship, funded by authoritarian regimes seeking to curry favour with Trump.

And Canada is no longer invited. As Mark Carney predicted in his speech at Davos, we are not at the table, because we’re on the menu.

Behind the AI-generated fantasy of “New Gaza,” the true vision of this billionaire clique comes into focus: dominion over land, resources and people, backed by U.S. military power.

In a way it is not so different from the armed corporations hundreds of years ago that colonized India, parts of Africa and yes, the Indigenous lands that now make up Canada.

It’s no coincidence that Rowan’s firm Apollo Global Management has its sights on B.C.’s fossil fuel resources, along with fellow New York private equity firms Blackstone and KKR.

The Americans, as we’ve learned, believe all resources in this hemisphere belong to them. What’s mind-boggling is that Carney appears willing to pay them to loot us.

Both our federal and provincial governments are offering billions in taxpayer subsidies to Rowan and his fellow Ksi Lisims investors, begging them to fold us into their global fossil fuel cartel.

It’s not just a betrayal of the public interest in Canada. To borrow a phrase from Carney, “it’s the performance of sovereignty while accepting subordination.”
