Tommy Douglas lived through two World Wars and knew Fascism, first hand. Is he describing the situation in Alberta? Here's his description...
Photo of Tommy Douglas with right arm raised and index finger pointing upward.  Quoted text is  Once more, let me remind you what fascism is. I need not wear a brown shirt or a green shirt. Fascism begins the moment a ruling class, fearing the people may use their political democracy to gain economic democracy,  begins to destroy political democracy in order to retain its power of exploitation and special privilege.

Shocking that it is in biosolids from sewage treatment plants that farmers put on their crop producing land and seeping out of landfills into ground water. So what's the situation with PFAS like in Canada?

government. I'd heard about PFAS controversies to do with cleanups in Michigan but really didn't, and I don't know much about these chemicals. Here's a YouTube video describing the issue in the USA.

Lately, I've been fixated on the rise of authoritarianism in the USA and Canada, but I have a history of involvement with environmental issues in Ontario. I was one of four individuals to be the first to be granted leave under Ontario's Environmental Bill of Rights. That was during Bob Rae's NDP

@charlieangus104.bsky.social your message to Canadians and Woke Americans was echoed by the late Jane Goodall. This clip doesn't address your current message, rather, it reinforces your underlying message to each and everyone of us. Thank you Jane and Charlie.

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words.

The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

When I was a youth, some 55 to 60 years ago, the US CIA was trying to figure out how to brain wash people (plant unreal memories, question real memories etc.). Are we not prepared to deal with the digital wizardry of the techno oligarcs? This may or may not be true but consider this...

Canadian here. Doesn't Trump cause E. Unum Pluribus with his antI DEI BS! H.E. double hockey sticks, even his ICE raids fracture stable communities and families. Like George Carlin once said, I paraphrase, Americans don't have a Bill of Rights, only a Bill of Temporary Privileges. SO S, So Sad.

All inquisitive minds know that it began before WW II ended. Until the USA began to totally collapse, there was a balance of power. Now, as you put it, there are gangster fiefdoms. Some trying to hold on to power, others trying to consolidate power. But the people have the power!

Thank you for bringing the four horses video to my attention. After starting to watch it through bluesky, I viewed it on YouTube. There i was introduced to the video below which began to educate this old white guy about Canada's dismal relationship and treatment of the people who's land we stole.

We recently saw what the UK thought of trump at/on Windsor Castle. Here's what Germany has to say about his antics. Why aren't Americans doing this at their sporting events or don't they care. The world cares because their current government is a threat to world order and peace!

Knowing that there are fascist elements in Canada means we have to think about appropriate ways to peacefully resist and diminish their hold on society. Most of us don't give this much thought when the threat seems so remote but ... here's a starter.

In case anyone in the world didn't know, the USA is, without a doubt, a fascist regime. Most of the people in Canada would like to get our reliable neighbour back but some would like to be like your current authoritarian carnation. We're resisting as best we can! Hoping you, in the USA, will too.

The president of Finland recently gave a critical assessment of the state of the United Nations. Very historic and timely in light of the seeming deterioration of the World Order.

Here's something which gives me a small glimmer of hope for a change in the starvation and humanitarian crimes situation. Italy and Spain are sending military ships to escort the Gaza aid flotilla which had previously been stopped by Israel's drones in International waters.
