YouTube video by LastWeekTonight Iran Deal: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

Earlier today we taped tomorrow’s show, and we discussed the potential for the U.S. to bomb Iran. Since taping, the U.S. has carried out several bombings. We’ll have more to say in the future, but for now our piece on Trump and the Iran Deal can help explain what got us here. youtu.be/5xnZ_CeTqyM

Nearly 1 million students cast ballots in #StudentVoteCanada.

Together with Abacus Data, we surveyed 13,942 participants to learn WHY they voted the way they did.

Pride is important because someone tonight still believes they're better off dead than being gay.

Pride is important because someone tonight still believes they're better off dead than being gay.

As we approach #PrideMonth there will be many very vocal individuals and groups who will repeatedly ask why Pride even needs to be a thing.

This.

This is why.

Alberta to create guideline for β€˜age-appropriate’ books allowed in K-12 schools Alberta is launching a survey that will impact the books found in K-12 school libraries across the province, saying β€œmultiple books” have been found in β€œsome” school libraries across the province that...

All but one seem to be about queer identities or homosexuality. Quelle surprise...

I'm saying that unless we are also paying to house Andrew Scheer, there isn't any additional expense happening here. Yes, though, if he's not the leader of the official opposition and continues to be unelected... he should leave.

To continue, this then arguably "saves" money, because, if we assume Poilievre will win his seat in Alberta, it means we won't pay to move him out and then move him back in. If he doesn't, then he should step down and move out.

I think it's highly hypocritical of him to remain in the house; however, it could be argued that Andrew Scheer is "letting" him stay there instead. Sheer being our Official Opposition Leader.

"They're really preparing for the end of the world. They are abandoning this place. They are traitors. We respond to them in part by being committed to this place...to where we are...and to other people."

Finished your book the other day and loved it. Very eye opening and inspiring. We need more punk rock in our politics.

Who will they pay ball with? I want to see NDP... but I bet they'll buddy up to Conservatives of they can.

I saw that... they actually have a possibility of getting that majority, too... Narrow leads on one Conservative and two NDP. What do you think?
