Canada’s economy just posted 2.6% growth in Q3 smashing expectations. A big reason?
Carney’s push to diversify Canada’s exports beyond the US is helping build a more resilient economy. Steady hands matter. 🇨🇦

“Quiet piggy”

“You’re ugly inside and out”

“Are you stupid? Are you a stupid person?”

This is how the President speaks to female journalists.

The men in the room need to stand up for their colleagues.

Demand better.

Don’t let him demean women this way.

How consumed by off-the-rails anti-science antivaxx conspiracy theories is the Alberta UCP?

Check out Resolutions #20 for UCP AGM. 👇

- Stop mRNA vaccines use in AB?
- provide vaccine detoxing (read: embrace pseudoscience)?
- educate about "vaccine injuries"?

UCP convention crowd: LOUD BOOS
Danielle Smith tried to sell her federal-Alberta energy deal to the UCP convention crowd: tepid applause.
She told them that this proved Canada can work well for Alberta’s interests: loud boos.

This ain’t a base that wants Smith to work with a Liberal PM on a better industrial carbon tax.

No one should be under any illusions about who the base of the UCP are.

Separatists and far-right radicals have been given care and feeding by UCP Premiers since 2019. One got thrown overboard because it wasn’t enough. Catering hasn’t mollified them either.

Donald has blood on his hands.

His needless D.C. deployment just got a nice young woman killed.

He’s murdering random Venezuelans.

He’s murdering Americans by taking away their healthcare.

His plague-denialism killed over a million Americans in his first term.

It has taken this country almost 250 years to be $37 trillion in debt! One man alone responsible for 1/3 of 250 years worth of debt! At the same time making the majority of the country poorer, and him and his family raking in billions!

A reminder that the current SECDEF caught the eye of the president by championing the pardoning of American war criminals — men whose own units testified against them, and who were convicted by military juries

He should never have been nominated for, let alone confirmed in, this job

If inflation comes up at the dinner table, don’t forget to draw attention to a deeper structural driver of high prices: corporate power.

Much of the food industry is dominated by a few corporate giants with the power to keep prices high because they face little competition.

This is so deeply at odds with the vision and history of America. Take pretty much any ethnic or racial group that are part of the American mosaic America today - they have all faced the same accusation. The moment these accusations are turned into policy are some of the most shameful in US history

There’s a wide range of stuff out there under that label, some of it very hard on the ears, some of it just plain great. I think the albums the guy recommends are probably not great places to start. I’ll think on it and DM you a short list of recommends.

In one of the later years of the Polaris fan convention, when I was helping to run the charity auction, the Canadian penny was being phased out. We placed “Penny Apocalypse” jars all over the place for people to dump their change in. It was great! We raised a lot!
i actually was briefly made insane by this atlantic article (and the attached NYT piece linked in it) about how there was no plan to deal with the fact that businesses still need pennies despite the fact that we don't make them anymore
