When it comes to the #ClimateCrisis, I think it's time to admit that Civility is Highly Overrated. We are in the middle of the Sixth Mass Extinction Mi'kma'ki Nova Scotia

For Godโ€™s sake it means more to Carney et al not to raise taxes on wealth for poor Galenโ€™s sake than to provide better services to the 99%. Mr Carney you are making me regret my perceived need to break a lifetime of voting progressive and backing the local Liberal because I feared the Cons.

Vast majority of Canadians agree that Canada should recognize Palestine as a state โ€” except Conservatives The vast majority of Canadians agree that Canada should recognize Palestine as a state, with the exception of Conservatives.

Dear @mark-carney.bsky.social and Anita Anand, I recently stated that "Canadians of all political stripes" want an end to the genocide. I stand corrected, you are definitely reflecting the sentiments of Poilievre & his Conservatives

Reeves and Starmer to roll the pitch for tax rises in a difficult autumn budget Exclusive: The Guardian has been told that discussions about increases include a near-certain gambling levy

"Reeves said on Thursday. '.....I am deeply concerned around the levels of child poverty in Britain. No child should grow up hungry or parents not be able to afford the basics for their family' "

What a complete and utter hypocrite

Video shows Department of Justice official urging Jan. 6 rioters to 'kill' cops The Department of Justice hired a former Jan. 6 defendant who was caught on tape urging rioters to "kill" police. The department calls him a "valued member" of the administration.

NEW: Police bodycam footage introduced at the trial of Jared Wise showed him berating police officers on Jan. 6, 2021, and yelling "kill 'em" as rioters attacked law enforcement. Heโ€™s now working as a senior adviser for the Department of Justice.

Did you know that a Canadian economist and conservative columnist played a critical role in the Trump administrationโ€™s push to eradicate the U.S. governmentโ€™s ability to tackle the climate crisis?

Yes, really.

Iโ€™m pairing up with my friends at @nationalobserver.com to tell you all about it:

My dear British friends, If you claim to be a progressive or a liberal and you're not shouting from the rooftops that @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social & his new party need everyone's support, you're not who you think you are.
As a Canadian, I wish we had such an excellent choice choice.

A wasteland of rubble, dust and graves: how Gaza looks from the sky The Guardian joins a Jordanian military airdrop for a rare chance to observe a landscape devastated by Israelโ€™s offensive

This is what the biggest war crime of the 21st century looks like

Why a NASA satellite that scientists and farmers rely on may be destroyed on purpose The Trump administration has asked NASA staffers to draw up plans to end at least two satellite missions that measure carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, according to current and former NASA employees.

We spent $750 million developing a state-of-art sensor to monitor atmospheric carbon, which has the added benefit of monitoring global vegetative health.... and the Trump administration wants NASA to crash it on purpose.
