Hello. I've made the switch from X. I was born and raised in Alberta, lived in Colorado for some time and now reside on Vancouver Island. My interests are nature, art, books and ( stressful at the moment) politics.

Donald Trump and Kristi Noem are using every lever to provoke our communities and incite chaos.

If Trump and Noem wanted to help Illinoisans, they would work with us β€” not against us β€” to protect public safety.

Why (way) more people should vote in municipal elections #Canada

Despite municipal governments controlling things that affect residents’ everyday lives and generate plenty of heated debate, turnout in municipal elections can be far lower than provincial or federal ones.

Seems as though Miller is calling the shots and the others in the administration, including the president, just gleefully follow his lead.

the people who told us to calm down because Roe was settled law are the same people now telling us to calm down because the military would never open fire on Americans

America, if this image β€” above all of the other draconian ICE images that you are seeing on social media β€” does not wake you up and make you want to do something to save American democracy from the wave of Trump fascism that is washing over America, nothing will. I am disgusted. Please RESIST!!!

When Do We Call This A Police State? The continuing crackdown on immigration could turn on a dime to target you.

There’s no debate now.

I say it not to be an alarmist, but it’s impossible to ignore all the warning signs.

They have no intentions of abiding by the will of the people anymore.

Democratic governors and Dems in Congress need to be mobilizing now to fortify our elections, especially from threats posed by the Elon types.

The Prime Minister Of Canada cannot pick up the phone or otherwise order money to be printed.

Only the Bank Of Canada Governor can.

If you see money with PM Carney’s signature on it, it was when he was the BoC Governor under Harper.
It’s not now. πŸ€ͺ

If you live in #Alberta and have not signed the petition, please sign.

A petition asking people if they believe Alberta should stay in Canada has obtained about 80 per cent of its required number of signatures.

Other than Justices Sotomayor, Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson, there is something very compromised and dangerous permeating the SCOTUS.

Speaking as a citizen of this country who has a right to hear what the PM or any other Minister has to say,... is it too much to ask the speaker of the HOC to put an end to the constant, unacceptable heckling and racket displayed by the opposition????
