A digital painting in dark blues and bright reds of a cowboy trying to light a cigarette in high winds. The glow of the lighter lighting up his face and hands. The scenery is plains and far off mountains obscured by the dark. To his left are bright red line drawings of symbolic images in frames. A revolver aimed at the sky, an old tin-case bible, a coyote in a trap gnawing its own leg off, a prairie rose, and a snipped-off braid with a bow.

A rough sketch of a manticore carrying a man on her back. The manticore js big cat-like, a lions front half and a deer’s back, a humanoid face, spiny insect tail, and large leathery wings. Nearly five times the size of a person. She side eyes the man, thinking β€œtrail snack…” he is none the wiser, smiling and holding onto her mane like reins and chattering aimlessly

A black and white digital drawing of a tall, broad and pale man wearing a heavy fur cloak and medieval russian style coat embroidered with a damask pattern of wolves and plants. He is glaring and leaning on the ornate hilt of a sword with bramble motif shapes. His face is angular and his ears slightly pointed. The image is cropped at the knees and the background is a solid black frame.

Guillermo del Toro’s #Frankenstein is a true masterpiece and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it, so it was only fair to tribute it with something of my own ~

A large bristly black wolf clad in Victorian women’s mourning clothes and pearls gazes into the viewers eyes from a picture frame, with her hands protruding. The image is done in a rough charcoal like texture

A photo from the POV of the poster: looking down at their lap upon which a small tortoiseshell cat is curled up bagel style, with their hand stroking her fur, and a drawing tablet teetering on the edge of their knees behind the cat.

A set of three wooden spoons with a burned-in design, laid on a cork disc. The backs of the spoons depict a starling on the first, a tree sapling greeting the sun, on the second, a half of a pear showing the seeds inside, and the last shows a twisting marigold flower in the rain.

    Censorship Credit cards Internet Pornography 

E-petition
Initiated by Carmen Tam from Waterloo, Ontario

Original language of petition: English
Petition details
Petition to the House of Commons
Whereas:

    Mastercard, Visa, and other payment platforms have been leveraging their power over consumer ability to purchase legal content;
    In 2021, Mastercard changed its policies to regulate adult entertainment by preventing the use of its payment platform on numerous adult entertainment sites;
    As of July 2025, video game distribution service Steam now cites rule 15, that β€œadult only” content is not permitted on the platform if it goes against payment processor’s policies. Steam does not describe what content is defined as β€œadult only”;
    As of July 2025, video game distribution website Itch.io has β€œdeindexed” all adult NSFW content from browse and search pages. Users that previously purchased legitimate video games cannot access games that have been removed; and
    This has set an unsettling precedent of corporate censorship, causing concern in video game development teams, including developers, voice actors, and artists in other creative fields as their livelihoods are in limbo.

We, the undersigned, citizens of Canada, call upon the House of Commons to
1. Stop financial discrimination by payment platforms against legal goods and services;
2. Ensure transparency to consumers about content restrictions and the rationale behind them; and
3. Protect creators' rights to make legal adult content and ensure a fair appeals process for any penalized media.

The official Canadian Petition to reign in payment processor censorship has stalled out just under 10k signatures.

This is a reminder for Canadians, this is an OFFICIAL petition that will be responded to. Show your support in protecting our free speech!

Act Now: Stop Ken Sim's Cuts to Public Services! Participate in the 2026 Vancouver Budget Survey.

COPE's Top Priorities
2026 budget survey

#1) Stop ABC's Handout to the Wealthy: Mayor Ken Sim is seeking a property tax increase as low as 0% for 2026. This handout to the rich will mean cuts to services, austerity, increased user fees, and neglected infrastructure. 

#2) Protect Public Services, Staff & Infrastructure: Sim's tax gimmick will mean cuts to public services, infrastructure, and the unionized staff that make the city work for people. 

#3) Boost Library Funding & Increase Hours: 

Under ABC, library hours are already being cut. A previous COPE motion to support libraries is going to be on the chopping block if there are new cuts. Vancouver must library users and library workers.

"Council Priorities" 

The survey pushes you to pick only 3 priorities, inappropriately pitting reconciliation, climate, housing and public services against each other. We've flagged priorities that relate to cuts.

"Financial Pressures" 

Staff originally said 6-7% was needs for 2026, but the survey's maximum is 5%, likely meaning at least some cuts. It would be ideal if a significant contingent of survey respondents advocated for 6-7% in the 'other' box.

The City’s 2026 Budget process is now open.

We're fighting against Ken Sim and ABC's austerity and threats to public services.

With your help, we can stop these cuts.
