You know Canada, we act so fucking superior, yet we have produced an AVALANCHE of ghouls.
Gavin McInnes.
Jordan Peterson.
Ted Cruz.
Faith Goldy.
Ezra Levant.
And this absolute fucking loser, and more.

In the trade wars of the world, our chief export of late seems to be bigots and shitbags.

As the data shows, the claim that federal agencies favor “left-wing,” “progressive,” or “woke” research projects is but a myth circulated by misinformed conservatives. If anything, SSHRC actually needs to fund more projects about social inequalities and injustice.

~WOW!! Every Single Albertan needs to read this!
It's all we've been saying& MORE in one tidy package

There’s never been more oil wealth generated despite the Libs in Ottawa

There is no province where real incomes&living standards have deteriorated more in the past decade than AB

My god this video is a must watch. Taylor Lorenz's analysis is spot on and a necessary watch if we are committed to not sleepwalking our way into end times fascism

"Very close"?!?
No, they are committing war crimes

Must watch

What an inspiring piece by @rutgerbregman.com!

As we deal with polycrisis, we need more people to care about making a difference!

No, you’re not fine just the way you are: time to quit your pointless job, become morally ambitious and change the world

Explains Marlaina Smith's popularity amongst her base. They're angry and want to break things.

and this is a policy choice.

Who did this?

Smith, LaGrange face more questions over AHS firings and procurement practices | Globalnews.ca Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and Health Minister Adriana LaGrange continue to face scrutiny over the dismissal of the former head of Alberta Health Services.

There’s a lot of cable news watchers that genuinely don’t understand why it’s bigoted to fire all the black and female lifelong military leaders and replace them with unsuccessful contestants from the Bachelorette, because to them it’s just restoring what they consider the default human state to be

Ontario measles cases nearly double, marking largest increase in almost 30 years The new cases bring Ontario's total this year to just over 140, far surpassing the 101 total infections recorded in the province between 2013 and 2023

"This is the largest measles outbreak that we've experienced in the province of Ontario since measles was eliminated from Canada in 1998," Wilson said.

Anti vaxx rhetoric is not just an American problem.

Please get your boosters. Wear a well fitted mask. Protect the children.

Yes, just like the Republicans evolved into Christian Nationalists, so did Canada’s CPC and Alberta’s UCP.

Too individualistic, too Christo-tribal, caring only about their own group and not the greater community. All for me and none for thee

The corporate coup is global.

Trump's mad tariffs do not mark the end of neoliberalism or free trade or whatever you want to call it.

They mark the end game of what we have been fighting for decades: corporate rule.

They do not believe in the public. They believe in their wealth.

It’s a five-alarm emergency for our Eastern Slopes.

Eight years ago today, we finalized the boundaries of the Castle parks.

It’s not clear what happens to those protections now, but at least they are there. We worked hard to protect that part of SW Alberta.

We will all have to keep working.

I have been thinking a lot about how becoming more informed and aware over the next four years in a way that’s really useful might mean more books about history and less getting sucked into the daily firehose of bad news which is the present

You know what’s kind of wild? I’m sure someone smarter than me has said this already, but I feel like our online third spaces are disappearing.

So many social media apps were started as a way to build community, and the corporate overlords are wrecking them one by one.

Oof, hard agree.
Curious who the Democratic party will groom and rally around as their centrist shining star now?
