Courage is always an option.

You cannot trust the federal government Everything they say should be assumed to be a lie.

“You cannot trust the [United States] federal government.
Everything they say should be assumed to be a lie.”

This has been clear for quite a while, and should be understood by everyone, especially given that too many in the media are still pretending they don’t understand it.

Pare down your life and be ready to make dramatic changes

Canadian women rock!

"There was a time, perhaps when the murder of a man over his political views would have caused people in a democracy to pause and reflect on the need to dial things back.

"Not anymore."

Stand up for democracy. Nobody said it’d be easy.

Education is the enemy of fascism.

Living Beyond the Planetary Budget How modern life crossed the world’s limits

We’ve crossed a line, most of us without recognizing it: soils growing thinner, summers stretching hotter, oceans growing more acidic with each tide. And now, we find ourselves somewhere unfamiliar: living beyond the planet’s ecological limits.

Its confusing to understand why any party would celebrate the agenda of an extremist who proclaimed hateful content & advocated to take away a select group of people of their liberty.

The temperature anomaly (vs 1991-2020) has risen from +0.21°C on July 4, 2025, to +0.72°C on Sept. 15, 2025, which could indicate that acceleration of the temperature rise is overwhelming the temperature suppression that comes with a move into La Niña. arctic-news.blogspot.com/2025/09/el-n...

Fucking weird choice, Carney. This guy is obviously a straight-up fascist who deserves no time. You can interview him and other fascists about trade policy, I guess, but bloody hell, a Cabinet meeting? Please @mark-carney.bsky.social

Project 2025 mastermind invited to speak at Carney's cabinet meeting | CBC News A prominent conservative figure in American politics and the mastermind behind Project 2025 — the infamous policy blueprint that proposed a drastic overhaul of the U.S. government — will speak to Prim...

IM SORRY WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK

To be clear, the focus of the meeting is not stopping fascism. The topic is "establishing a new economic and security relationship with the U.S."

So I think it's more accurate to say the guy who wrote the fascist playbook is offering advice on submitting to fascism.

A Health Secretary who opposes vaccines. A Defense Secretary who doesn’t believe that germs exist.

America’s enemies, who are all aware that germs exist, must think that all their Christmases have come at once.

Republicans are destroying the American brand.

If I got kicked out of, say, being the CEO of a major company by the workers holding a collective public vote, my sense of shame would personally not let me force my way back. Anyways totally unrelated I wish Pierre Poilievre well in his return to politics

The people who are *still* making a massive deal about having to go to the doctor and get a shot think historians made too big a deal out of **slavery**

Since the pandemic is still ongoing, new research remains crucial.

"This hybrid approach allowed us to show that outbreaks seeded in poorly ventilated environments contribute disproportionately to disease emergence and transmission. The worst-ventilated areas pose the greatest risk [...]"

Report suggests arms still flow from Canada to Israel despite denials | CBC News The government of Canada is adamant — with certain, shifting caveats — that it has not allowed arms shipments to Israel since January 2024, and yet Israeli import data and publicly available shipping ...

Canada's parliament voted to block all arms shipments to Israel.
And then Prime Minister Carney was elected.
This report says Canada's weapons continue to flow to help murder starving people.
Call PM Carney & Anita Anand and ask why they defy Parliament to aid genocide.

For Pierre Poilievre, defending Freedom Convoy convicts is a political survival strategy The Conservative leader needs to keep the far-right elements of his base fired up.

Last week, Pierre Poilievre and Conservative MPs attacked the Crown prosecutors in the Tamara Lich / Chris Barber convoy trial

What's maybe more remarkable is Poilievre only did this after far-right influencers called him out and began questioning his leadership

I broke this down for @thestar.com:

As I just said on radio Ford banning political discussion from classrooms is ridiculous. With civic literacy at an all time low and terrible voter turnout rates we should be engaging students in discussions that effect their future, the economy, our democracy and society #Onpoli

Alberta covered $150M in oil and gas companies’ unpaid rent | The Narwhal Issue of oil and gas companies’ unpaid rent in Alberta is ‘intertwined’ with unpaid municipal taxes, cleanup bills: law professor

When oil and gas companies are unable, or unwilling, to pay rent they owe to landowners where they have wells, the Alberta government pays it for them.

The tab is now nearly $150 million since 2010, Sharon J. Riley reports: thenarwhal.ca/alberta-oil-and-gas-unpaid-rent-2024

Nature is telling us, but we aren’t listening.

This is now the worst performing video I have published on YouTube in six months. It is getting 1/30th of my usual reach. Any coincidence that a vid where I put "Gaza" in the title is being absolutely throttled? I'm gonna venture a no on that one.
