Holy hell. If you click that link don't read the comments. There's a LOT of racism in there. A LOT.

I'm not indigenous but it gave me a sick stomach.

Our great Canadian Prime Minister Carney meet with the South Korean PM today, too. Everyone was all smiles because Canada's leader isn't a fucking tool.

Here in Canada's north in 15 years I've watched 4 swamps and a pond dry up *completely*.
Newfoundland, historically a very wet province, had green grass last January, and forest fires they've never seen before due to drought.

Holy hell, humans...

Honestly, the only delivery people I ever see is either GenX scraping a living, or newer immigrants.

I've no issues with seeing some Opels and Renaults cruising Canada's streets. In other words, import European cars. Better safety standards too.

It's always the ones you most suspect these days.

Every accusation a confession.

And still not a drag queen.

Canada's rural areas - almost all of the country - are drastically underserved, with all the resources going to the cities.

Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS May Have Been Caught In Perseverance Rover Photo People think they've found Martian images of interstellar object 3I/ATLAS on NASA's website. They might be right.

We *may* have the first ever images of an interstellar object, taken from the surface of another world!

Letโ€™s talk about โ€˜whoa.โ€™

First of all, โ€˜woahโ€™ is not yet considered an established spelling variant of โ€˜whoa.โ€™

While โ€˜woahโ€™ has grown in prevalence since the late 20th century, โ€˜whoaโ€™ is still about 5 times as common as โ€˜woah.โ€™

Fellow flotilla activists are alleging Greta Thunberg was horrifically mistreated in Israeli detention.

If this is how Israel treats a high-profile detainee like Greta Thunberg, I want you to consider how they treat Palestinian detainees.

You donโ€™t have to imagine it. Itโ€™s been widely documented:

New analysis indicates higher lethality of avian flu at B.C. ostrich farm: CFIA vet | CBC News An affidavit by Canada's deputy chief veterinarian says the strain of the bird flu virus found at the farm is "among the most virulent" tested at Canada's National Microbiology Laboratory.

Tests are $90US each bird & that's only 1 of the necessary tests.
The virus can survive in feathers, water, & manure for months & years.
CFIA's risk assessment is also informed by the farm owners' "inability or unwillingness" to comply with quarantine rules.
