Right now, for a lot of Canadians the temptation is to ignore Indigenous people because the threats from the US seem way more important. This turn to fervent and ignorant nationalism is a mistake. Don't alienate the people who know more about your "country" than you do. Find common cause instead.

Don’t lose hope. Remember, Watergate took over two years to fully unravel from the initial break-in to Nixon’s resignation. Just like then and now, Americans are losing faith in their government. We are documenting every illegal action and will hold this administration and Elon Musk accountable.

Washington, D.C. yesterday. "Shut down the Senate, Shut down the Senate." Chanted for hours.

More massive #USprotests, ongoing. Sources here report, "Millions of people are getting ready as we speak to take this country back and save the USA. Their days are numbered. Stay tuned." #3E

A shadow war on libraries Some Canadian politicians and influencers, inspired by an American-born movement, are trying to roll back 2SLGBTQ+ rights in Canada — one book at a time.

The Fifth Estate is reporting on how anti-2SLGBTQ+ sentiment is affecting Canadian libraries and - something I'm so glad they looked into - how it's connected to attacks on libraries in the United States. www.cbc.ca/newsinteract...

Hi, my name is [NAME], I'm a constituent in [ZIP CODE]. I'm calling because I saw that [TERRIBLE THING] is happening. I think this is appalling. [PERSONAL STORY, if you have one.] I want you to do everything you can to stop this. I will remember your actions when I cast my next vote. Thank you.

Here is a script you can use for any issue. Find your reps' # at reps.fyi or 5calls.org. Every time you see a news story that horrifies you: call, or something else about it. It matters to say what you believe. You are setting a norm.

Open your wallet. Fund independent media from marginalized people. Fund groups that are doing the work. Do some BDS.
Palestinian resistance has shown us a myriad of ways to fight

Liberals: "omg that's scary, what can we do?"

Also liberals: *keep voting for the same capitalist values that caused the rise of fascism in the first place*

Same was true in Poland

Collins: He said that Canada is going to be implementing a $1.3 billion border plan, where they talk about reinforcing the border. I should note that's actually something that was announced back in December

Yes...Trump conceded to pause his stupid idea when Canada did...what they already had planned to do.

WHAT A NEGOTIATOR!!!!

Jackie Shane As a pioneering trans soul singer in the 1960s, Jackie Shane’s unapologetic and authentic presence in Toronto contributed to the local R&B music scene and made her an enduring queer icon in Canada.

Today, I'd like to introduce you to someone from Canadian Black history this time, Jackie Shane.

www.historicacanada.ca/productions/...

She was a transgender soul singer who fled from Jim Crow in the states to Toronto, and helped shape the R&B music scene known as the Toronto Sound.

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Happy Black History Month #mirrorparody

It's thanks to her, and those she worked with in her groups, that much headway was made for LGBTQ+ rights and awareness.

If you are also a member of the queer community, you should read up on her, because there is a lot we have to thank her for.

Marsha was a prominent advocate for LGBTQ+ youth, those affected by HIV and Aids, as well as a fighter for gay and trans rights.

She continued to advocate up until her death in 1992, which had been ruled a suicide but occurred during a time when trans violence was at an all time high.

Marsha P. Johnson Marsha P. Johnson was one of the most prominent figures of the gay rights movement of the 1960s and 1970s in New York City.

Happy Black History Month!

If you haven't read about black history and prominent figures of the black community, you really should, because black history is world history.

As a member of the queer community, let me introduce you to Marsha P. Johnson.

Exclusive: Inside the Harper government's trashing of a research library The inside story on how one federal library's journals and documents ended up in a dumpster.

Hey Canada, as we watch the Trump admin erase info from public websites, remember when the Harper government muzzled scientists, shut research libraries and labs and tossed irreplaceable documents into dumpsters.

The graphic lists five leaders with their respective percentages: President Trump at 41%, Kim Jong Un at 17%, Ali Khamenei at 8%, Vladimir Putin at 8%, and Xi Jinping at 7%. The source of the survey is YouGov. The background includes the Fox News logo and a ticker at the bottom with news updates.

Germans know fascist wannabes when they see them.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.

I know. I was there in those camps.
