Or, hear me out, the provinces need to step up and do their fucking jobs and fund their own services properly. They are not helpless. They can raise their own revenues.

“Fraser said it would be "unimaginable" for a federal government to steer clear of a case affecting Charter rights that will have lasting impacts and suggested the premiers' argument is "untenable."”

Hard agree.

Bombshell investigation shows that Hungary's Russia-alligned Orban regime has been running an espionage network in Brussels, recruiting and infiltrating among the highest levels of foreign governments.

Gov. Josh Shapiro: "I respect the Canadian people and Canada's sovereignty... When POTUS bullies Canada, threatens to make them the 51st state, belittles them, undermines their sovereignty, that undermines the interests of our farmers and the people who work in our factories."

I will never get used to military in our streets. I will never be a Christian. I will never get used to people claiming to be Christians putting military in our streets.

The White House Antifa Roundtable is one of the best displays I’ve seen of this-is-how-bad-it’s-gotten — just a sewer of open fascism, dementia, morons and freaks, and incoherent rage.

This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent.

Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.

The business model is both evil and genius.

Ontarians pay as PCs' backlogged courts drop 338,000 traffic safety charges Millions in lost fine revenue. Millions spent to process and prepare cases that never get decided — because of a backlogged court system. Guess who pays!

"Trump’s Lies Cost Citizens Everything" A president rewriting reality, a government frozen in chaos, and leaders lost in illusion; when truth becomes optional, Americans pay the heavy price and democracy itself teeters on collapse.

It is so incredibly weird and scary and disheartening to watch the world's most powerful nation being systematically dismantled and pilfered by a gang of ego-thugs led by a painted carnival barker who is literally famous for being a greedy crooked cheat.

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

"Poilievre's letter didn't say what he would do differently from Carney and his negotiation team to try and secure an agreement with Trump." His response to every emerging problem is to blame Canada.

Text card: Listen for dangerous words. Be alert to the use of the words extremism and terrorism. Be alive to the fatal notions of emergency and exception. Be angry about the treacherous use of patriotic vocabulary. #OnTyranny

One of the lessons I discuss in "On Tyranny":
Listen for dangerous words.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

Canadian libricide: Tories torch and dump centuries of priceless, irreplaceable environmental archives Back in 2012, when Canada's Harper government announced that it would close down national archive sites around the country, they promised that anything that was discarded or sold would be…

Harper/Poilievre Tories torch and dump centuries of priceless, irreplaceable environmental archives.
The government's concerted attacks on environmental science compares to the rise of fascism in 1930s Europe.

Orbán: "When Europe decides to go to war, Hungary will have the opportunity, the ability, the strength, and the knowledge to avoid getting involved in such an escalating war. I think it's possible, I'm working on it."

Surrender to Russia, then go to war on their behalf. Genius.

It is unfathomable to me that we’re all just supposed to be okay with higher energy costs and more air and light pollution, in exchange for a machine that steals personal data and copyrighted material and produces slop and wage theft, and big tech can do this to our society unilaterally.

It really does get old, seeing government officials use every single tragedy they can to attack their political opponents.

Americans want affordable lives and the ability to work hard and get ahead.

It’s really that simple.
