If Carney is so worried about human rights, why is he making deals with India, China, and Qatar?

Trump is violating his very own Constitution in his current actions against Iran.

Canada was a peace keeping nation. Now we’re trying to egg on a third world war.

The goal *is* the wasteland-ification of much of MENA so that Israel and the Emirates can rule over rubble.

Israel and US: destabilizes the Middle East

We got duped, folks.

We heard what we wanted to hear, not what he actually intended. That may have been his intent.

It’s okay to admit it.

Trump’s attack on Iran violates UN rules Canada has agreed to uphold. It contradicts numerous values PM Carney claimed he supported in Davos. Endorsing illegality, violence, & destruction over dialogue and peaceful resolution is not what Canadians were promised, or support.

To everyone who cheerleaded Carney's faux speech in Davos & posturing as independent middle power -

His atrocious statement today backing US-Israeli attacks on Iran make clear that he & Canada are firmly aligned with dominant imperial interests.

And he did so while shaking hands with Modi in India

Several points:
1) Iran's regime is odious. Its citizens deserve support.
2) That does not mean an attack will help.
3) Canada will find it hard to be so selective in its support for international law.
4) Canada does not benefit from a US administration unbound by the US constitution.

Yikes, super disappointed Carney, this is pretty much the opposite of what I want to see.

When he eventually gets bored and starts attacking our sovereignty again are you going to roll over like this too?

Fuck everything about this.

40 years of β€œIran will have nuclear grade material next month….”

And then it was all supposedly β€œobliterated” last year.

Iran is a hideous regime - it must be overthrown- but not by an unstable deviant serial child rapist.
Nothing good will come of this.
This is war as a grift tactic.

β€œIn light of this apparent failure to grasp the basic requirements of the ambassadorial mission and the honour of representing one’s country…”
Next time Pete Hoekstra starts mouthing off, maybe Canada should answer him in French.

Oh man, if only Canada had an AI minister whose entire job is dealing with AI and thinking about AI and who could do something about AI companies disregarding the safety of Canadians and potentially hindering investigations of crimes on Canadian soil. Alas.

Our πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ grandkids will be ashamed if we let Cuba starve under siege by Trump and the US.

Students of history proudly know how Canada supported early communist China thru famine and international acceptance, despite US disapproval.

Trump will pull the pin now or later. Better we keep our integrity.

Being anti-imperialist is more important than whether you are communist or anarchist.

And to everyone looking to weaponize a tragedy, to use an act of violence that has taken and ruined lives to attack a group of people, stop it right now.

Immediately choose love - look for every chance you can to support your community, your vulnerable neighbours, your family and friends.

Dear US media.

You need to understand that your country is a scary ass place right now. The fact that you are disappearing your own citizens and flat out murdering detainees is a message to everyone to stay the fuck away from the USA.

FACT CHECK:

Myth: NDP closed rural hospitals

Reality: The Sask. Party can’t keep rural hospitals open.

We deserve a government focused on fixing healthcare, it’s time for change.

Yup: the closest thing to Discord (IMO) that I've used is IRC, but IRCs frankly sucked because everything's in one channel; you can only post text or links, and there's no way of reading past messages.

There's still some 2000s-style forums around, but they're few and far between, I'm afraid.

Could anti trans MAGA people kindly shut up about the Tumbler Ridge shooting?

Canada doesn’t have regular mass shootings. We handle them differently than the US.

Stop using it to push a political agenda.

Stop using it to punch down on an entire group of marginalized people.

It wasn’t a mistake.

It wasn’t done by a staffer.

It’s not a funny meme.

There are no gorillas in The Lion King.

Trump is showing you who and what he is.

Believe him.

Don’t use ableist sanist language. He’s a racist bigot.

He’s always been a racist bigot.

baffling that the media isn’t making more of an issue out of how carney is gutting key federal agencies/depts and what that’s going to mean for gov capacity when we’re supposed to be more independent and capable.

food inspection, health canada, statscan, global affairs β€” all being cut, and more

Everything they are using to harm others, they are also showing you what is reserved for them to use. Only these supremacists can use guns. Only they can use violence and deny it. Are you beginning to see what Palestine has seen in over 75 years? If not, you will. πŸ’”πŸͺΆ

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.

If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

Prosecute ICE is where Dems should be at next.
