Usually still works.

Academics talking about the ‘white gaze’ and all I hear is ‘white gays’.

This is why solidarity amongst shared struggles is so important. Ppl may not care when notwithstanding clause is used against trans kids(they should), but governments like Smith’s won’t stop there.

Also why AB, SK, and ON trying to prevent court access when NWC is used should concern all.

@ CBC NEWS CBC News now Ford defends Ontario's anti-tariff ad that angered Trump, says he achieved his goal

“Was it a good idea?” Coverage continues. Sigh.

CBC headline:

Despite Trump's anger, Canadian politicians won't say Ontario's anti-tariff ad was a mistake
U.S. president has promised to increase
'tariff on Canada' by 10% because of the ad

Honestly I hate this kind of news. Total waste of limited resources. Just horse race journalism and to me showcases CBCs increasing focus on political strategy as the be all and end all.

“Was that smart? Was it a mistake?”

Like who t f cares.

Abcnews graphic: surreal moment as coyote drinks water from skylight window on top of Los Angeles hair salon (Image of exactly that, except the framing is canted and as a result it looks like a coyote imprisoned in a glass square a la the phantom zone from Superman)

I understand why they had to stop him but I don’t agree with imprisoning him in the phantom zone

Pierre has said he’d use it federally. Which brings forward entirely new ways for the government to target minorities

Imagine how much austerity this could pay for.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre visits Windsor to back auto workers

This is a very odd article. Pretty much just verbatim writes Poilievre’s speech.

Danielle Smith’s pipeline still doesn’t have a business case The biggest obstacle standing in the way of another pipeline to the West Coast isn't the tanker ban or federal climate policies. It's oil prices and the nature of the businesses that rely on them for ...

Mark Carney could remove the emissions cap, the tanker ban, and anything else Danielle Smith demands. Her proposed pipeline still wouldn't get built because the business case for actually filling it gets worse with each passing day.

TC Energy lobbied Canada’s spy agency to share intelligence | The Narwhal Pipeline giant TC Energy urged CSIS to brief Canada’s biggest companies on security threats — raising concerns about surveillance

The Canadian government passed legislation allowing CSIS to more easily share intelligence with private companies after it was pressed by pipeline builder TC Energy to set up regular “information-sharing” meetings with industry, CSIS and RCMP.

Saskatchewan plans to introduce involuntary treatment, allow Roughriders tailgating

Honestly crazy headline. This is extremely Scott Moe.

#skpoli #cdnpoli

Shamefully, Canada is named several times.

mark carney taking the time to shit on canada post during his big pre-budget speech was disgusting.

he acts like it’s the responsible choice to gut an essential institution at the very moment he can’t stop talking about nation-building projects. that’s what canada post is and could continue to be!

Community response to Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe's promise to expand trade with Israel.

It's interesting how the passive "spousal assault" has taken over the active "beating his wife" for journalists.

It pains me to say it but CBC is bending toward fascism.

CBC headline “Ceasefire strained as Israel hits Gaza with deadly strikes over IDF deaths”

CBC goes with ‘strained’ because words have no meaning.

#cdnpoli

Hey look, Israel broke the cease-fire, twice, in two different ways, within 24 hours - again.

So do the NL PCs also have fascist leaning tendencies?

Or is that more of a prairie thing?

Statement from the president of the Parliamentary Press Gallery, on Prime Minister Mark Carney’s trip to Egypt:

“It is unprecedented that Canadian media be entirely excluded from a Canadian prime minister’s foreign trip.”

While Israelis celebrated the return of captives from Gaza, Israel warned Palestinian families against holding celebrations over the return of prisoners – some who had been held for decades. Al Jazeera’s Nour Odeh explains.

text from the nytimes: Israel-Hamas Cease-Fire Updates 'Peace Summit' Cease-Fire De Mr. Trump's trip unfolded against the backdrop of a trade that formed the cornerstone of the peace plan he proposed last month: the exchange of the last 20 hostages to survive two years of captivity in Gaza for 1,968 Palestinian prisoners, including 250 serving life sentences and about 1,700 detained during the war and held without charge. The exchange went smoothly, but what happens next is far from clear.

text from cnn: Israeli authorities. Some 250 Palestinian prisoners and more than 1,700 detainees from Gaza, held by Israel without charge, have now been released. • Emotional scenes unfolded as the freed hostages reunited with their families in hospitals across Israel and as released Palestinian prisoners met relatives in the West Bank and detainees arrived in buses to large crowds in Gaza.

israelis get to be ‘hostages’, palestinians are ‘prisoners held without charge’.

israelis get ‘families’, palestinians get ‘relatives’

‘Locked up for 24 years’: release of Palestinian prisoners and detainees sparks joy and sorrow Nearly 2,000 people, including about 1,700 seized from Gaza and held without charge, set free from Israeli jails

That’s literally not true.

“88 Palestinians were released from Israeli prisons and sent to the occupied West Bank on Monday – the other nearly 2,000, a number that includes about 1,700 Palestinians seized from Gaza during the war *and held without charge*”

www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

Anand and Carney simply believe Israeli hostages are of more value than the Palestinians held hostage by Israel. It’s so disgusting and hard to watch

‘Locked up for 24 years’: joy and sorrow as Palestinian prisoners and detainees return home Nearly 2,000 people, including about 1,700 seized from Gaza and held without charge, set free from Israeli jails

Even Israel claims that only 25% of their 11 000 hostages are considered fighters. See www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

@petermansbridge.bsky.social and Janice Stein should correct the record— for both media and academic integrity.

A huge platform like that shouldn’t spread misinformation.

I don’t know why Janice Stein (Munk School) claimed on @petermansbridge.bsky.social The Bridge that the Palestinian “prisoners” aka hostages held by Israel were essentially Hamas agents that had killed or harmed Israelis when literally every other source says that’s false.
