The city budget is fragile and we're on a downward spiral towards being broken.

Iran conflict: Rubio says US launched war on Iran after learning Israel planned to attack

Secretary of state says US had to move β€˜preemptively’ to stop Iranian retaliation against American forces

Iran conflict: Rubio says US launched war on Iran after learning Israel planned to attack Secretary of state says US had to move β€˜preemptively’ to stop Iranian retaliation against American forces

so let me get this straight. attacking iran is justified because iran was going to attack US bases, only after israel attacked iran first. so instead of stopping israel from carrying out the attack, the US just had to bomb iran too.

In an interview with BBC, Green Party leader Zack Polanski described the US and Israeli attack on Iran as β€œillegal and unprovoked” and warned that the UK government risks β€œdragging the country into another illegal war.”

The blatant Islamophobia that Keir Starmer is demonstrating through smearing Mothin Ali would be shocking - but it's becoming a pattern.

Smearing a caring man of principle for standing up for peace.

Mainstream political parties in #nspoli continue to fail to offer any hope at all for our struggling youth. They've chosen instead to protect their suburban donors' inflated property value, and their corporate backers' material interests.

(our party is free to join if you're under 30 btw πŸ’š)

Treaty education is something I keep finding myself coming back to; the treaties must be taught, and they're fundamental to our presence in Mi'kmaki.

This move is an attack on treaty rights, and the cuts to language show that indigenous cultural erasure is still alive and kickin' in 2026.

X/Twitter post from Anand reading: "Re strikes on Iran, it is key to remember that β€œCanada wasn't involved. We weren't notified, and we do not have an intention to be involved in any military strikes or operation." In addition, Canada believes in a diplomatic and peaceful solution and in my conversations with my counterparts in the Middle East and Gulf countries, this is precisely the issue that I raise."

Days after Mark Carney endorsed the US-Israeli war of aggression, Minister Anita Anand is now trying to distance Canada from it and says her government supports a "peaceful solution."

Shameless weasels.

A fun part of having a stalker is that once every 2-3 months I get to go online and shock a bunch of nice social media users by sharing the realities of the judicial system with them.

🚨 It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work.

This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public.

Please spread the word.
