I'm sure @steveboots.bsky.social will/has come out w/ a better clip of this soon, but this is really impressive. A Liberal leadership candidate announcing his support for Palestine & for Canada engaging with Palestine as a sovereign state in support of their reconstruction. youtu.be/zOuQeRgZhro?...

Why are we still refusing blood/tissue/organ donations from gay men? What is the actual, medical reason? Oh right, it's homophobia. www.halifaxexaminer.ca/morning-file...

03.12.2024 13:44 β π 81 π 11 π¬ 13 π 5I think a heat pump in Alberta is the first major problem (after buying a Tesla). Pretty sure itβs not going to work for most of the Winter when heat pumps are less effective below -10C. Thatβs a lot of energy to heat a βtruckβ in Alberta. Here in NS, Iβd be worried about rust & finding winter tires

No voter cards, no way to send them in. Good thing he instituted fixed elections right?
