Ryan DOES pay too much, because of unfair legal rules allowing MB landlords to permanently jack up rents and their profits by claiming to pass on temporary repair costs to renters. Minister Sandhu and the NDP govt needs to fulfill their promise to end outrageous rent hikes & protect tenants.

Thanks to @bpincott.bsky.social for outlining these thoughts on yesterday's hearing. I'll be thinking about the experience for a while. The three words that keep circling in my head: process as violence. A slow and violent death where we choose parking over people, for eternity.

Really concerned that the primary Canadian reaction to tariffs seems to be doubling down on nationalism and capitalism. Other worlds are possible ⤵️

There have to be other ways to talk about political community inside nation-states without invoking nationalism. How about collective responsibility to those whom we share nothing in common with beyond the sanctity of life and geography? Let’s take the opportunity to invent new social relations.
