Voted ✔️🗳️ A privilege that I never take for granted. We are consistently reminded by the world that democracy is just that, a privilege, not a right. So vote because it's your civic duty. Vote because many people in the world aren't so lucky to be able to do so. #Canadaelection2025

Pacers let it get hairy, but they hit big shotsand beat the Bucks in Game 2 123-115. Both teams had great shooting nights, but the Pacers were better and had 7 fewer TOs. They lead the series 2-0 heading to Milwaukee.

Because of the pay gap, women have lost out on more than $60 trillion in wages since 1967.

Yes, trillion.

On an hourly basis, women were paid 18.0% less on average than men in 2024.

We must ensure fair wages for all.

“In any sane and rational universe, Smith’s transparent treachery would be the end of her political career. She is openly collaborating with an administration that is trying to bring Canada to heel, whether through economic or military means, and has repeatedly threatened its sovereignty. “

YouTube video by CBC News Is Trump right about the U.S. 'subsidizing' Canada? | About That

IMPORTANT: If you live in the United States or Canada, you’ve probably heard Trump‘s constant claim that the United States is “subsidizing” Canada. It’s wrong of course, but here’s the best explanation I’ve seen about how & why it’s wrong. PLEASE WATCH & SHARE IT A LOT. Kudos to Andrew Chang & CBC.

Think about this.

@brucearthur.bsky.social What a great article! As a big fan of Jeff Marek and a loyal supporter of both the Jeff Marek Show and now The Sheet, I really enjoyed learning more about him. Well done.

There is now a safe NDP seat in southern Alberta, in the middle of one of the most overwhelmingly conservative regions in Canada.

Many said it could never be done. And now, the first Japanese-Canadian will take his seat in the #ableg. Congratulations, @robmiyashiro.bsky.social.

Serious question tho:

Not that I’m not elated for y’all, I truly am.

But how are we still seeing numbers this close after what feels like a decade of dumpster fire Dani?
