A work of art, from the surface to the depths.
Timely too, what with the issue of water sovereignty and all.

It’s not the lowest bar. It’s still very very good. But yes— not say it doesn’t need work.

My doctor is 5 doctors. There is an in house dermatologist and an in house urologist and 4 doctors in case mine isn’t available. They take blood, do ultrasounds. It’s free unless you need a skin tag removed for 70 bucks. Our health care works. #canada

We were protected in Canada before the feds caved to the lobby. Brutal.

Bruce Arthur @brucearthur.bsky.social · 6d

This was such a societal mistake, and there's a reason I have never even come close to engaging with sports betting content. It's going to ruin a lot of lives.

% of US men under 30 who say legal sports betting is a *bad thing* for society

22% in 2022
47% in 2025

No other demographic group has seen a bigger increase.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)
