I've been called nasty by better people than MAGATS.

Good think Canadians can still say "Jeff Epstein". Guess we'll have to pick up the slack.

I think we've scarred this man emotionally for the rest of his life. Anyone want to take him tobogganing and show him some love?
I’m sorry but I can’t stop laughing, yeah we would sled down hills in the winter with whatever we had on hand, toboggans, crazy carpets, tubes 😂 someone always got injured because of jumps on the hills or wipeouts #Canada

Why are our tax dollars subsidizing American propaganda?

“The tens of millions of dollars that the National Post and Postmedia receive in funding from the Government of Canada are a ‘key pillar’ of the American-owned corporation’s business strategy.”

Alaska vowed to resolve the murders of Indigenous people.

But when one nonprofit asked state law enforcement officials for a fundamental piece of data — a list of Indigenous murders they’d investigated — the state said no.

When the nonprofit Data for Indigenous Justice filed public records requests with the Alaska Department of Public Safety concerning cases it had investigated, the state rejected them.

These are dangerous, misogynists hiding their hatred behind "Save the children" rhetoric. Fuck 'em. But not literally.
“While Pierre Poilievre insists he’s not anti-abortion, the anti-abortion movement still has influence inside the Conservative Party. Even if party leaders don’t attend anti-abortion rallies on Parliament Hill, CPC MPs often do. The party makes room for people working hard to restrict abortion.”

Oh...that burn will need a bit of ointment.
PM Carney was asked when he last spoke to Trump: "Who cares. It's a detail. I'll speak to him again when it matters. I don't have a burning issue to speak with the president about right now. When America wants to come back and have the discussions on the trade side we will have those discussions." 👏🏽

Ontario needs more of this leadership.
Marit Stiles 🇨🇦 got kicked out of the legislature for calling Doug Ford and his government corrupt—and she refused to take it back.
But why would she take it back?
He IS the most corrupt Premier in Ontario history! #cdnpoli

Bill 60 is open season on renters.

It gives corporate landlords more power to hike rents, evict tenants, and squeeze families who are already stretched thin, all while Ontario is dead last in home-building.
