Blue Labour is basically a scam designed to give people a safe space to hide from how much the world has changed.

Thai is how you kill a health service. Create fiefdoms. Set them against each other for finite resources. Enable blame shifting.

The game was set much earlier in the timeline post outbreak, so it makes more sense in the source material. The issue with the show is they updated it to our timeline but left outbreak day steady so more time has passed.

Haven’t seen it yet. Was it SFU Burnaby?

North Americans and your chequebooks like it’s 1986…

From record numbers joining local Indivisible chapters, to hashtag#HandsOff and Fight Oligarchy rallies -- we’re seeing an inspiring upsurge in local civic events.

What Matters Most is What Comes Next

The image below depicts what that can look like.

Chris, I’m mailing you some iron ore. Let’s find out!

OrangeBubble: an online resistance t-shirt store! It’s what the Federal NDP did when they stopped pretending to be a serious political party. #cdnpoli

Resist Trump. Buy our t shirt?

One of the big problems that modern democracies face is bad faith actors / grifters like Yanis playing to the peanut gallery.

Let’s make this simple. She was found guilty after a multi-year investigation and was punished in line with a law she voted in favor of.

Don’t threaten me with a good time.

Campaigning... in her own seat?

Liberals door knocking in Glenorchy (!) today. Labor still does not have a candidate in Clark. #politas

In the absence of an NDP that is transformative I’m supporting the Liberals. Given the US threat, it’s more important to me to have a coherent national response put by a party that can actually win an election, than to have a marginally better platform put by a party that is bad at politics.

This guy would have slapped as NDP leader.

The Fed NDP is a fundraising vehicle, not a serious political party.

Don’t really know why there’s this culture of letting legislative branch leaders sit in leadership for so long.

Once again - Americans could learn so much from parliamentary systems.

Give it a few years and the Trudeau government will be remembered with nostalgia by a lot of the same people that have spent 10 years trying to defeat it.

Trade war kicks off as Canada retaliates against Trump’s ‘very dumb’ tariffs In a pointed barb, Trudeau said the US was starting a trade war with its closest allies at the same time as it was “appeasing Vladimir Putin, a lying, murderous dictator”.

Imagine having a Prime Minister that stands up to bullies. 🤔

In this moment Doug Ford is doing what most political leaders have neither the courage or the imagination to do. He’s still bad overall, but right now I’m glad he’s there.

ELBOWS UP, CANADA!

The Australian election will be fought on a security frame. Ballot box question -which leader will make people feel safe in a scary world? The ALP has been trying to shape the election to be fought on Medicare. But with everything happening in the world in the last few days, that’s unlikely. #auspol

The hero we need. Not the one we deserve.

Genuinely the best political skills of any politican since Obama.

The NDP and aligned Left parties like Québec solidaire are collapsing everywhere outside of Western Canada as people park with traditional centre-left liberals or mainstream conservatives. If you arent considered a serous party of government people dont want a bar of you right now. #cdnpoli

She also said she supported electoral reform and then killed it with fire, so colour me skeptical.

We also have to acknowledge that the Boomer generation (the previous generation mentioned) do not see it as their responsibility to provide the same caregiving that their parents provided to them when they had kids.

I love this because SNL is spiritually reliant on Canada and Canadian comics.
