It's a real failure on the part of @cbcradiocanada.bsky.social and other Canadian media outlets to be myopically focusing on tourists and missing the larger story at play here. Not everything is about Canadians first. Ximena González nails it here. #cdnmedia

Nation returns to Heated Rivalry to watch Canadians get fucked in a good way - The Beaverton OTTAWA – Following a heartbreaking 2-1 loss to Team USA at the Winter Olympics, viewers nationwide started a rewatch of the hockey romance series, Heated Rivalry, in search of a more uplifting version...

Nation returns to Heated Rivalry to watch Canadians get fucked in a good way

I can imagine how awful that must have felt! Thank you for sharing. We can absolutely have policies that make schools places all our kids can thrive, and we cannot lose sight of that truth.

No. The presence of police in schools in harmful to racialized and Indigenous children. The data from OCDSB and other boards are very clear about that. Police make white people feel safe, not all people feel safe. The fear that racialized children feel is real and justified. No police in school.

…food security makes schools safer. Dr. Ross Greene’s upcoming book “The Kids Who Aren’t OK” clearly outlines the negative impacts of “hardening” of schools on children.

There are policy solutions to ensure a massacre like Tumbler Ridge never happens again, and we can enact them.

Should police be in schools?

NO.

Canada must not be pulled into US propaganda about school safety. Police officers, metal detectors, and cameras don’t make schools safer. Reducing the number of guns in the community, restricting access to high capacity guns, funding mental health access, and /1

"OpenAI said it trains its models to discourage users from committing real-world harm..."

Soooo did the chatbot's actual answers discourage her from committing violence, then? Given its responses to suicidal queries, seems like a relevant question??

I hope that rural voters will appreciate the bars being open Sunday morning while their local ER remains closed.

Exclusive | OpenAI Employees Raised Alarms About Canada Shooting Suspect Months Ago The ChatGPT maker opted against informing Canadian authorities about Jesse Van Rootselaar’s descriptions of violence last June.

Absolutely wild. WSJ reporting that some OpenAI staffers thought the Tumbler Ridge shooter's use of ChatGPT raised the potential of real world violence but leadership decided not to alert RCMP. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

Would this be a good place to encourage them to get the fuck off of Twitter?

Ford 'doesn't know what he's talking about' when it comes to basket weaving, Indigenous artist says | CBC News A third-generation Indigenous basket maker is setting the record straight about his craft — it's a part of his culture, it's valuable, and artists can make a living off of it.

Spencer Lunham Jr.'s art is incredible! I've never seen baskets like the ones he is creating.

And also: it is LONG past time that we dump this Ford government. #onpoli

Grateful to see the humanity of Canada federal leaders in this moment of immense tragedy. I don't take this for granted, and it is a reminder that this is how we should expect our elected leaders to act: with humanity and grace. Love and solidarity with the community of Tumbler Ridge. #cdnpoli

Eight lives lost in British Columbia: Their names and stories Five 12- and 13-year-old children at the school, an educator, and two family members at a nearby home were killed

The @theglobeandmail.com has compiled the stories of the eight lives cut short in Tumbler Ridge.

A thread below.
www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

An all black image with white text overlaid on the black. The text reads: "Day of Mourning. British Columbia grieves with Tumbler Ridge."

Today is a Day of Mourning in BC for the tragedy in Tumbler Ridge.

Our thoughts are with the families of those who lost their lives, students and staff, first responders, and the entire Tumbler Ridge community.

Please join us in observing a moment of silence at 12:00 PM (PST).

Screen shot of the Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights popup when you visit their website. A black and white AI image of a crowd of white people, including middle aged women and older men with ecstatic expressions looking up into the sky where multiple guns are falling from the sky towards the crowd. Red and white text overlays the image. The text reads: "THE CCFR'S IT'S RAINING GUNS CONTEST We're Giving Away 100 Guns! Click to Enter! CONTEST ENDS MAY 1, 2026 | *Firearms awarded not as shown"

So, Canada: what organization is going to lead on gun violence prevention in the wake of the massacre in Tumbler Ridge? When the Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights is out here giving away firearms and messaging "It's Raining Guns", we need organized and concerted pushback. #cdnpoli #Canada

This is beautiful writing and necessary context to understanding the tragedy unfolding in Tumbler Ridge, BC, Canada.

School shootings are an access to guns and ammunition, childhood abuse, lack of community, and lack of health care problem. These are problems with solutions.

The Pleb: "A few hours ago, I posted an image of someone I believed to be the Tumbler Ridge school shooter before that identification had been verified. The post was removed within minutes. I have also been proactively reaching out to accounts sharing the same unverified image to encourage its removal so others do not repeat the mistake. Speed is never an excuse for inaccuracy, and I will exercise greater caution moving forward. Sincere apologies for contributing to any confusion."

And here's The Pleb acknowledging he posted photos all over the Internet accusing a completely random innocent person of being a school shooter:

Profound grief and heartbreak this morning thinking of the lives stolen by gun violence in Tumbler Ridge, BC.

Children should not be shot at school, ever. Not ever.

Sadly, I think AI. Look at the muffin tin which is shaped like no muffin tin I've ever seen, a white ceramic mug on the third shelf from the bottom with two handles, and the lights reflecting on the glass of the art. Boo generative AI slop.

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

I cannot see how a police chief remains standing after at least nine of their officers are arrested for allegedly being involved in some of the city's most frightening violence, some allegedly directed at other members of their staff.

This is a fantastic piece from @ricochetmedia.bsky.social about what exactly we Canadians need to be demanding from our government right now. #cdnpoli #ICEOut

I love the job that pattern tester GrankaG did with this. A turquoise background with pink axolotls, light green pond plants and little purple fish with beaded eyes. Also beaded eyes on the axolotl and duplicate stitch in maroon to highlight the gills.

My Axolotl beanie for #NationalAxolotlDay. I actually didn't know it was axolotl day until today, but it's a good day to be publishing this pattern. 🧶🐸
