Welcome to the Great Bear Sea | The Tyee After decades of discord, Canada is working with First Nations to create marine protected areas stretching from Vancouver Island to Alaska.

It’s true the ocean off the Central Coast is some of the richest in the world. But stressors like overfishing and climate change are threatening its productivity and the ways of life that depend on it. @serenarenner.com reports. 🌊

My wish for you!

Want a Carbon Fix? It’s Closer than You Think | The Tyee While Canada bets big on engineered tech, experts say nature still offers our best climate solutions.

The Tyee looks at three critical and vastly different means to store carbon in the West, examining how these ecosystems capture carbon, the restoration work they require and why Canada should take them seriously as solutions.

I will never understand creatives who want to outsource their imagination to a machine of stolen words.

Sure, writing is hard (cue ChuckSPN.gif) but it's also fun and weird and you let your imagination roll around and it comes up with the craziest shit and its glorious.

Happy Mother's Day to all the amazing moms and mother-figures!

Michelle, the girls and I are so lucky to have you in our lives. We love you.

Peter Dutton, leader of the right-wing opposition in Australia, lost *his own seat* today — amid his broader loss to the Labor Party that won reelection.

Just like on Tuesday, when Pierre Poilievre, leader of the right-wing opposition in Canada, lost his own seat — amid his party's broader loss.

‘We Are All Canadians!’ | The Tyee Monday’s election has prompted global reaction. What smart minds (and a couple of wacky ones) are saying.

David Beers: Occupy Wall Street 2.0 the federal election was not.

But the comeback Carney staged against Poilievre, who had built a commanding lead by echoing themes employed by Trump, was read by many as revolutionary.

At least, a key victory in a global fight against autocratic illiberalism.

Being an author is like "here's a piece of my soul. Please rate it one to five."

This was an important election. It means we get to keep the CBC. It means public news and responsible journalism. It means Canadian TV and Canadian film. It means more Canada in the world. Not just for us, but for everyone.

This election means Can-Con not Can't-Con.

I love my echo chamber where everyone values the humanity of other people and enjoys the arts.

Poilievre vows to stay on as party leader for reasons of being otherwise unemployable #CanadaVotes #cdnpoli

I check the little screen, I check the big screen, I check the watch screen, I check the tablet screen. I check the screen that reminds me of the good times, I check the screen that reminds me of the better times.

Dear Canada-
Please accept our deepest apologies from all decent Americans embarrassed by the obnoxious trolling from our man-baby-in-chief who is lacking in both intelligence & any impulse-control whatsoever.

Accurate. very different countries, shared colonial histories that evolved uniquely. Words matter.

Exclusive | Elite Universities Form Private Collective to Resist Trump Administration Separate from the public dissent, a group of school leaders are strategizing behind the scenes about how to respond and push back against the White House.

“The universities want to make sure other schools don’t go so far as to strike deals that create a worrisome precedent that others would be under pressure to follow, say the people familiar with the effort. The Trump administration has been worried schools would team up in resistance.”

"Mr. Poilievre, can you please explain exactly what you mean when you say the word 'woke'?"

"Absolutely. So the lost liberal decade has caused everyone to be crimed when they step outside their door, which is why I have to axe the tax and arrest homeless people, because we have to bring it home."

this biological clock might be running out of time to have kids, but it's definitely not out of time to vote out the man who cares way too much about it

Horrified and saddened to hear this news in our beloved city. Our hearts are with the families of the victims and the Filipino community.

The best we can do is be respectful and not politicize the moment. The facts are still unfolding.

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

Liberals - do not listen to any messaging that says "Liberals already have it in the bag so Liberal voters needn't bother voting".
Disregard that stuff, it is a voter suppression technique.
Tomorrow get out and vote come hell or high water. #cdnpoli
