Also, airport measurements have been way out of what with surrounding area before. I see Kelly Butt measured around 40 cm in St. John's east.
The same fascist pressures from the right exist in our own country. Canadians need to see where it can lead, before they can be convinced to vote against it.
WTaF, CBC?!??? The same fascist pressures from the right exist in our own country. Canadians need to see where it can lead, before they can be convinced to vote against it.

Also, basically no coverage of the human rights abuses of ICE, or Trump's regime's dismantlement of the democratic process and rule of law. From the CBC coverage, you'd think the only problem with the US is tariffs on trade with Canada.

using language that could just as easily be read as celebrating some kind of "heroic achievement against all odds" on the Republican's part. Almost no numbers on the content of the bill or its impact.
2/🧵
As a Canadian, I am horrified at the coverage of Trump's horrible bill on CBC. The story doesn't even make the "Top News" page, and if you dig it up from the "World News" page, the article mostly focuses on the "narrow margin" and turbulent process...

Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride.
However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
On another note (probably), you got Francis Galton on your hit list yet? That guy SUCKS!
The whole thread is worth reading.
🥹 Millions of Americans are coming together on this #NoKings Day to reject authoritarian overreach, defend democracy, and stand up for their communities.
The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible
Holy shit, New York!
Here’s the full view.

Great episode, but you gotta step up your content warnings. Murder/violence and warfare, yes - and also oligarchy and tyranny? Warn a girl, wouldja? Those topics hurt right now!
I hate to say this, but I think many will do it. They would not make sacrifices for the well-being of others whom they hate anyway, but they will make sacrifices for the sake of hatred and domination. 😢
NEW: Total Catastrophe Was Avoided, But Canada Is Heading Rightward

I think you need to graph the escalation of tariffs between Trump and China and figure out if there's an asymptote, and if so, what is its value. My money is on 783%.
1. What you see here is clearest illustration why things are so messed up and why it cannot get any better until this asymmetry is addressed.
Put simply: the right-wing has narrative dominance.
My org @mmfa.bsky.social did this study and has been sounding this alarm for years. Some thoughts...
Same answer to the "the left has abandoned the working class!!!" complaint.
Cuts to the NWS will have an impact in our region.
Weather balloons provide very important data for weather forecasting models (including the Canadian & European models) and provide important insights during fall, winter and spring storms here in the northeast.

This is a basic obviosity but there's no reason to not simply state that Trans people were degraded and dehumanized by Trump last night to waves of applause. Everyone saw it, it was disgusting, it made me fear for friends and family, and this rhetoric can't ever be considered normal or okay.
Left-wing censorship was a fantasy, but the right-wing censorship is real, unconstitutional, and murderous. There was no majority anti-conservative social media bias or casual forced use of words like “birthing person.” But stripping protest rights and official language is actual deadly censorship
"A lot of trans people felt a deep sense of ironic deja-vu watching the controversy play out," writes Rhea Rollmann.
"Responsible journalism helps us understand each other’s identities and what they mean to us."

We are in a dangerous time but here are two important facts:
1. Trump's base of support is a minority.
2. That base is going to shrink as his agenda is enacted.
The opposition is the majority. No moping allowed.

Why is CBC not reporting on the role that Elon Musk and his tech bros, in concert with Trump, are playing in the takeover of the US government in defiance of the Constitution, including the Treasury payment system, USAID, and now the Department of Education?
