In Finland, they have a saying, "The forest replies with the voice you call out to it."

The world is a mirror, reflect carefully.

A constitution is only as strong as the willingness of a nation’s institutions and people to uphold and enforce it. The document itself provides the framework for lawful governance, but it gains meaning only when its principles are actively maintained through the rule of law and civic accountability

CNN needs to read the room. Trump insulted our PM, said we aren’t a “real country” then threatened to ruin us economically & imposed tariffs on our major industries unless we became the 51st state. These boycotts of US goods is a grassroots movement by Canadians to build our independence from them.

We should celebrate the release of the Israeli hostages, but let's not forget the thousands of ukrainian children who were kidnap by russia.

“Postmedia is the nation’s leading supplier of climate change denial and pro-oil industry propaganda, so it’s not surprising that they would dismiss academic research and rail against bike lanes when they provide an inexpensive solution to interrelated emission, pollution and congestion problems.”
Latest bit of Montreal 'bikelash' sidesteps the facts to please bike-lane haters
The findings of a study about bike lanes vs car infrastructure have been twisted by a Montreal publication in a cheap bit of bikelash.

HOW CYSTIC FIBROSIS WENT FROM FATAL TO TREATABLE.

In the 1970s, #CysticFibrosis (CF) was terminal. Today, many with CF can expect to live a normal lifespan. This is the story of the journey that made it possible, told by a doctor there from the beginning.

Finally. We need accountability in healthcare spending (or lack thereof).

Ford’s mismanagement of transfer payments borders on criminal negligence.

Health care accountability framework bill would require provinces to report benchmarks for timely access to primary care, elective procedures, & emergency care, & allows the fed govt to reduce or withdraw cash transfers, if they fail to do so.👍

There’s a group of CPC MPs (AB: Genuis and Vierson) who are preoccupied with policing women and their bodies. Attempts to limit Canadians’ freedoms needs are serious. Our individual & collective rights & responsibilities need to respect the views & beliefs of others. But not impose them on others!

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.

Canadians could be facing a “perfect storm” in mental health challenges due to insufficient supports and a trend of growing economic stressors—which will need to be addressed through greater federal funding.

The actual product they are supporting is a major source of social problems and illness. So we're supposed to support their economy when they are hurting ours?

Thank you, Jonathan. I’m appalled at how many Canadians are talking about the dangers in 🇺🇸politics but ignoring the same policies as Conservatives throw them out at home.

I will keep drumming this drum: don’t get distracted by 🇺🇸politics: we have our own homegrown variety.

From climate change denial to attacks on vaccines and science to eliminating birthright citizenship and a woman’s right to choose, we have our own extremism.

So now the Administration are saying that the mass firing of CDC scientists, including many responsible for preventing outbreaks, was an “error” and many will be brought back.

Whether by intention or incompetence, dismantling public health will kill people.

Hey CNN, the Pope is calling you out for this piece of journalistic trash, where you victim blame and portray Canadians as the aggressors instead of honestly acknowledging America’s total guilt in causing this debacle.
