Carney’s Liberals are cowards. But we knew that already.

While Kneecap’s rise to prominence has clearly troubled the Liberal party, Vince Gasparro’s claim that the band glorifies terrorist organizations is an obvious smokescreen meant to divert the public’s attention from the band’s steadfast support of the Palestinian people. @enda-b.bsky.social writes.

The Liberals have made a big mistake by cancelling the pro-Palestinian Irish band.

👀 Just put this on my TBR list! “weaving together a classic North American noir detective story, Irish mythology, gothic-style horror and frontier-town adventure, all against the backdrop of an early-20th-century mining town.“

"The Haunting of Modesto O’Brien combines Dashiell Hammett, Irish mythology, gothic horror and a mining camp to create a riveting tale of greed and mystery. You won’t want to put it down."

A Palestinian film about a little boy won an award and Israel cut off the funds immediately.
Meanwhile we are subjected to whiny articles about how unfair it is to boycott Israeli films, academics, artists.
This is about standing up to genocide.

"Records produced by the government in this litigation show that the internal advice prior to passing Bill 212 was that protected bike lanes can have a positive impact on congestion and that removing them would do little, if anything, to alleviate gridlock, and may worsen congestion” buff.ly/HiMOMBs

Yes, the Charter protected Toronto’s bike lanes. No, bike lanes are not a Charter right.

There is genuine mismanagement, and then there is Ford underfunding school boards and then blaming the trustees for not balancing their books (on the backs of special needs children primarily), and he doesn't differentiate between the two while he centralises authority over education.
Doug Ford says people ‘done’ with school board spending scandals as his education minister considers axing trustees
"There's some good and there's some bad ones," the premier said Wednesday morning after an announcement in Caledon.

Researchers told me that, compared with pre-pandemic times, people are living with more inflammation and immune disruption now, whether they have long COVID or not.

Months later, Akiko Iwasaki's final line still echoes in my head: “the entire world is pretty much the convalescent control.”

🚨 COVID & vascular aging 🚨

Netanyahu is moving into his final solution phase in Gaza - the forced expulsion of a starving population. The west makes statements but makes no steps to impose sanctions or charge Canadians serving in the IDF death machine. Meanwhile the grandmothers are refusing to be silent.
