Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.

I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. It’s unfolding very rapidly. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-plan

Support the teachers. Public education is worth fighting for. It is the only way to educate a future that helps to level a playing field that gives extreme advantage to the moneyed class.

β€œplummets to historic lows” is nonsense. Any way you look at it, PP approval is no where close to Carney. PP spews hate and division. Carney champions progress.

Nova Scotia - a province known for endless rainy days & many bountiful rivers & lakes - is into its 4th month of extreme drought. This is the French River, that provides Tatamagouche with water (or not). Climate crisis kicking in. But: let’s frack and clearcut anyway, says NS Premier Tim Houston.

We do need to promote vaccination for kids and teens, but we also need to pressure governments everywhere to invest in clear air. Like many other viruses, COVID is airborne.

The same people who want you to believe there's a spate of church burnings & that unmarked graves are a hoax are also assholes of epic proportions

Imagine having so little personality you make hating Indigenous people on Reconciliation Day all you are as a person

Brilliant takedown of #PierrePoilievre by Adam van Koeverden.

β€œEarlier this year when the leader of the Conservative Party lost his job he didn’t lose his house.

That’s because he lives in government subsidized non market housing.” …yet PP always opposes such assistance for others.

Imperial Oil to cut 900 jobs, will mostly leave Calgary | CBC News In a release Monday afternoon, the company announces workforce cuts to come by the end of 2027.

Anyone who has paid the slightest attention to the oil and gas sector knows that they have been automating and cutting their workforce for years, which is why I have always thought it foolish to count on them to create jobs.

Since we are NOT going to the US we should be laughing at this. Better to not sell us tickets than have to admit seats are empty because they were not sold. Boycott.

Instead of blaming corporate greed, he blames the Liberals.
And the media plays along like it's all legit.
Make no mistake. This is entirely corporate greed.
Shrink-flation. We have all seen the quantity is less.
For the same price.
Quit being stupid Canada. Please? For me?

Canada Post is a service. Like other govt or quasi-govt services, it is not supposed to turn a profit. It needs to be efficient, but so do healthcare, the military, food inspection, schools, and other govt services. We subsidize it because people, businesses & remote communities rely on it. #cdnpoli

By forcing Canada Post to scale back, the federal government is directly attacking the public postal service that serves every part of this vast countryβ€”effectively privatizing postal delivery by ceding market share

We need to stand up to protect our public postal service
