Photo listing the names of the victims of the Polytechnique Montréal massacre.

Today, we remember the fourteen young women whose lives were stolen at Polytechnique Montréal 36 years ago.

Their names are a solemn reminder of the devastating toll of gender-based violence — and the responsibility that comes with our remembrance.

A grim reminder he has been a benighted presence in American public life for so long a guy who died in 1998 had a firm opinion about him.

How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!!
No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

Today is Canada's National Day of Action & Remembrance on Violence against Women. It marks the day in 1989 when 14 women at Polytechnique in Montreal were murdered by an "incel" (Proving that shit has a new name but is an old problem.)

There are vigils across the country today. Please attend one.

The Polytechnique massacre wasn't just a mass shooting — it was a mass femicide. The gunman explicitly targeted women and blamed feminists for the troubles in his life. We must fight like hell to make sure it doesn’t happen again.

Don’t you dare forget their names.

Opinion: Ottawa risks billions in investments for a pipeline to nowhere B.C. stakeholders’ voices are not being heard in discussions about building pipelines that make little economic sense

The most damning part of this MOU, is that there is no economic case to build one.
1) Chinese demand for oil will
peak in 2030
2) global demand will ⬇️ by up to 58% by 2050
3) the world at large is going electric, wind & solar.

Another Canadian Premier League team has folded.

You know what "Elbows Up" means? It's supporting Canadian businesses.

Winnipeg has failed to do that.

Pacific FC and Vancouver FC are also struggling.

Come on, Canada. Support our own league.

The Epstein coverup will go down as one of the greatest scandals and miscarriages of justice in U.S. history.

Everyone involved with Epstein’s victims or with the coverup needs to be prosecuted and go down in shame.

It does not matter if they are GOP or Dems!

Repost if you agree.

Statement: Facing climate litigation, CPPIB made at least $7.1 billion in new fossil fuel investments in the last year — Shift - Protect Your Pension and the Planet Facing landmark climate litigation, the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP Investments, or CPPIB) has committed at least $7.1 billion to new oil, gas, coal and pipeline assets in the last year....

You don’t call climate change an "existential threat" and the "single biggest investment risk that we face", and then spend the next year pouring $7BN from the Canada Pension Plan into investments which make this crisis worse. That’s reckless and absurd.” #cdnpoli www.shiftaction.ca/news/2025/11...
