I was born in Old South and even though we moved to a small town when I was about 9, I moved back for college and beyond. It’s my favourite place in London, even now.

I’ve loved Ferron’s music since I first came out, went to one of her writing workshops. I’ve seen her perform so many times - last time in March 2020. I heard this song today and now I think she is a poet, musician and a prophet. We are stronger together youtu.be/R5Pm6LcG7V8?...

We need to shut down any attempt by Elon Musk to monkey-wrench our election. We must defend Canada's democratic integrity.
Please write to Elections Canada calling on them to shut down interference by Musk's interference in the X algorithm.

The Meta news ban, the downfall of Twitter and the rise of the Conservative Party of Canada The Meta news ban, the downfall of Twitter and the rise of the Conservative Party of Canada β€” billionaire tech bros, so much to answer for.

β€œA 2022 report by the CBC revealed that Pierre Poilievre had hired the team behind Canada Proud to β€˜boost his messages online’ β€” an organization that specializes in anti-Trudeau rage-bait and whose sole mission is to defeat Justin Trudeau. Poilievre and the CPC’s chief strategy is distortion.”

My Oma told me a story about WW2 - in occupied Holland a local Catholic priest spoke out in his parish church against the atrocities that were taking place - arrests, roundups, transports to concentration camps. Two weeks after his public statement he disappeared. How is this different?

I count epochs with music. I saw Amy Ray live for the first time in Toronto on the night Obama was elected in 2008. Tonight, this song just..resonates.

If CBC is going to put O’Leary on Power & Politics & pretend he’s a politician with relevance, they should be required to point out for transparency & duty to disclose that he’s never held elected office, never been a political staffer & whether he ever paid off his leadership bid debts.

Attempting to annex Canada would spell disaster for the U.S. at home and abroad Canadians would never passively accept the loss of their national identity β€” any forced integration would be violently opposed and quickly devolve into a nightmare scenario for both nations.
