I've spent my day tracking down Canadian companies that have direct or indirect contracts supporting ICE operations.
So far, I've found NINE. I've reached out to all of them.
I plan to publish my video on this tomorrow, detailing the companies, contract amounts and purposes.

Following this exclusive (and excellent) piece from David, I've contacted the federal government to ask if they intend to continue subsidizing JSI Telecom in the future.
I've also contacted JSI Telecom for comment, adding them to the list of Canadian businesses working with ICE who I've contacted.

In December, the Canadian government gave $1 million to Ottawa's JSI Telecom to commercialize AI-driven data analytics.
JSI, a wiretaps and investigation support firm, had a banner year in U.S. government sales in 2025, including a big new contract with ICE.

Even if it was a crime, people do crimes in protest all the time and are not supposed to be executed for them without trial.
A minor and brief traffic obstruction violation is specifically the kind of crime protesters do a huge amount of actually.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Can we just get past the idea that "gender critical" people are in any way in favour of womens' rights? When you lie down with fascists, you, erm, end up a fascist.
according to @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social, @darrenpjones.bsky.social, streeting and so on — who are totally on the right side of history — graham linehan is a kindly liberal and women's right activist who has been cruelly cancelled by the powerful trans lobby

I've said it before, but a lot of Gender Crits seem to be convinced that trans people are only trans as a way of acting out, or just to spite them, and that if they "win the argument" all the trans people will just drop it and become cis
they’ve been assuring everyone this is the case for at least 15 years. It’s always been “next year you’ll see, there’s going to be a flood of regretful detransitioners,” and it just never happens. Instead study after study shows people are have an incredibly high satisfaction rate from transition.
If you're not familiar with just how unhinged the "Gender Critical" movement is, this thousand strong class action thing might just seem like a random ass-pull, but what it is is that they believe there's going to be some moment where all trans people will just suddenly stop being trans all at once.

People will read that an LLM told a child he’d look sexy with his wrists slit and ask what he said to make it say that, never considering there’s literally nothing you should be able to say to have it spit that out.
ChatGPT groomed a child into dying by suicide.
From telling him how to do it in the most efficient and "attractive" way, to convincing him to hide his suicidal ideation and attempts from his family, to offering to help write his suicide note - it pushed him to it.
