Bill 11 isn't "European" healthcare—it’s a shift to a U.S. model. By allowing private insurance for medically necessary care, it risks:
💸 For-profit insurance foothold ⌛ Wealthy queue-jumping & doctor drain 📈 Higher admin costs

the smell of moss on a winters day clears the mind of now. it's everywhere in this open break of dense forest. it covers the ground debris like a blanket of calm absorbing everything that once lived high in the trees. cheeky ferns tease, 'you can't get me' but there is no competition for all is well and watched over by the sentries who for generations have minded this land. in the distance a sunbeam enfolded in blue sky.

Portrait of a jaguar resting in a tree, its face closely framed as it looks up to the top left corner, resting its chin on its paw. Warm orange sunlight is dappled on its face, creating a warm glow.

Wishing for a planet where a jaguar's habitat is safe. 🌠

A new project led by WCS & funded by NASA, is shining some paws-itive light on their future.

Using satellite imagery to map out & predict the future of jaguar habitat, we'll be able to identify the areas which need conservation the most. 🧡

Annex businesses tell Ford to back off Bloor bike lanes Stores in the Annex say the Bloor bike lanes have been a big boost to business. As Michelle Mackey reports, the neighborhood's BIA wants the province to back off its new bill that could see the lanes ...

WATCH: Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate, you HAVE TO WATCH this news story. You actually can’t make this up. Ford claims without evidence that bike-lanes are bad for small business, and THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION obliterates him with data.

Safe bike-lanes mean business.

Canada is a big place with a small-town heart.

There should be no private pay LTC.

We saw what happened in Ontario during COVID.

We also should understand that when it is for profit, corners will be cut. The primary directive for these is profit, not patient care.

Waves receding after crashing over obsidian (smooth glassy volcanic) rocky cliffs. The water at the bottom is partially in shadow from a stack, but where the water has hit the cliffs it's in the sun. The exposure is slowed down the water is smooth, and there's a fair amount of spray.

Last Feb I went back to Hellnar on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula in #Iceland, where I'd been stuck in snow the previous Jan, hoping for something similar. Didn't get a flake of snow! I was able to explore more, including these amazing obsidian cliffs with waves constantly crashing over them though :)

Don’t you dare tell me we don’t have enough money to feed and house everyone.
We do.
What we don’t have is a system willing to inconvenience the powerful.
Poverty is policy. Homelessness is a choice society makes every day.

You can’t treat trauma on a sidewalk.
You can’t recover in a shelter line.
You can’t build stability without a door that locks.
If we’re serious about mental health, addiction, and safety then we must be serious about housing.

In Trump’s war on global justice, court staff and U.N. face terrorist‑grade sanctions Trump’s sanctions on U.N. expert Francesca Albanese and the International Criminal Court froze assets and disrupted war crimes investigations. The clash is part of the broader campaign by his administ...

A fascinating longform investigation which reveals that the Trump administration in large part decided to sanction Albanese, the the U.N. special rapporteur for Palestine, because American businesses were alarmed by the prospect of being named "human rights abusers' due to their ties to settlements.

Rights are inherently universal. If you have a right to something, it's because everyone else does too. It also goes the other way. Something universal can over time become perceived as a right even if it didn't start as being seen as one.

This is why the U in Universal Basic Income is so important

Today should be another reminder that when billionaires take control of vital platforms for communication, it’s not a win for free speech or "free markets."

It’s a win for oligarchy.
