New Brunswick Premier Susan Holt's Liberal government will no longer use X for "routine" government communications:

New Brunswick is showing how its done. X/Twitter is owned by an American oligarch closely aligned with the Trump regime, with a proven history of distorting the platform's algorithm to push his ideological agenda.

Canada must safeguard our information environment from this disinfo pipeline.

There is no Canadian alternative to Zoom at this time that we are aware of - if you know of one, we'd be very interested!

Similarly, Bluesky is based in the US. We are looking forward to @gandersocial.bsky.social providing a Canadian alternative soon!

CANADA PREPARING COUNTER-INSURGENCY WAR
YouTube video by Charlie Angus CANADA PREPARING COUNTER-INSURGENCY WAR

Canada has become a leader on the global stage defending democracy. Trump will be turning his rage on us.
Canada's military are already planning out the "what ifs" - a counter-insurgency defence of Canada that will destroy the American empire.
This is no drill.

Finally, we'll brainstorm what kinds of activities may make sense for building civil defence capacity here in Canada, and what sorts of things people may have an interest in pursuing, before wrapping up by giving people a way to stay connected and act on next steps.
