As an antifascist, I consider this excellent news.

Migrants still missing after crash near Canada-U.S. border: RCMP The RCMP continues to search for a group of undocumented migrants who were involved in a collision near the Canada-U.S. border on Sunday.

I think it's time to rethink the Canada-U.S. Safe Third Country Agreement (STCA). The US is not a safe country for immigrants or refugees. It is endangering migrants fleeing from the US.

I'm pleased to see that there are people coming up with other ways to measure the success of countries than GDP. I have thought that was poor indicator of success for a long time.

More Than 300,000 Alberta Workers Form a United Front | The Tyee Bracing for Trump-triggered instability, 26 labour unions declare a ‘Solidarity Pact.’

I'm really pleased to see this.
More Than 300,000 Alberta Workers Form a United Front via @thetyee.ca thetyee.ca/News/2025/03...

That's quite the way to put it.
I believe it is 100% accurate.

This seems like good advice to me.

Did they not see the "fuck you" face he made while he was making that gesture? Did they only see video of it from far away?

This makes some good points, but do we want the Liberals back, even without Trudeau as leader? I know I don't want Polievre.

I had seen video of this from much further away and of just the first one. That was bad enough. But, this, which shows the fuck you face he makes makes this even worse. I am disgusted. I think the original poster's prediction of Tesla cars getting keyed is spot on.

Yeah, Bluesky seems more like a good replacement for Twitter. I was never a big fan of Twitter. I would love to hear more about MeWe.

I like having the more intimate experience one can have with longer posts and the ability to limit the audience like LiveJournal, back in the day.

How the heck do I edit a post? I stuck in a superfluous word and want to fix it. Gah!

Someone actually calculated it and it is generally a smaller carbon footprint. It's not one round trip for every order. It's a bit like the difference between taking carpooling and driving one person per car.

What exactly do you expect Canadians to do about nominations in the US?

That sort of did happen to me. It was just so much more convenient than dragging the groceries up the stairs from the underground garage. Also, Canadian winters ...

But, besides being more convenient to have them arrive, it's a smaller carbon footprint than going to the store and back in your car.

After Yule every year we always give our Canadian house hippo a bath. It's a tradition ♥️

I have another friend who also connects well with "mesers".

Help #FixBillC26! With great power, comes great accountability.

For Canadians, please have a look at this and seriously consider signing a letter to ask senators to add some common sense in the form of amendments to Bill C-26 to protect our privacy.
