"Winning is a moral duty"
I will say that I find it very shady and mildly undemocratic that the Liberals are trying to obtain a majority they weren’t elected on through floor crossings

That and minority governments are better for democracy due to the compromise they necessitate

OH WELL
BREAKING: Conservative MP Michael Ma is crossing the floor to sit as a Liberal.

Liberals are now just one seat short of a majority.

"To my knowledge, no one told Jesse he couldn’t talk about antisemitism. I never heard that in a meeting, never in a side conversation. I never heard anyone say they left because of it....What I did witness was staff raising concerns about the journalism itself."

The staff who spent years building Canadaland deserve better than how they were characterized in this interview.

This is awesome. Print is such a good way to get around a bunch of distribution (and surveillance!) mechanisms that seem otherwise mandatory in this very gross economy. It is really nice to see it spelled out like this.

It works great for us, and it'll work great for other places!
404 Media is making a print zine! About the surveillance technologies used by ICE. 16 pages, riso printed. Shipping early January. Features reworked versions of our best reporting and a few new things. We're very excited! And hope to do more if people like it:

This is simply untenable. There is no way forward with media and political classes captured by the right. Every time someone commits a crime you have to pray it's not an undesirable or it's purge time, then when it turns out to be themselves again they just shrug and wait for the next one.

Do Canadian conservatives actually know and respect Charlie Kirk?!

These are reactions are *insane* to me.

But large corporations underdtand that if their business is too big to just stop, the government has an interest in stepping into negotiations, ending strikes and imposing contracts.

This has disincentivized bargaining in good faith for the bosses.

obsessed with this vague notice from the government of Nova Scotia. Like it’s definitely about the new fire restrictions, but it also looks like a poster you’d find yellowed and curled on the bulletin board of a diner in a town where locals won’t talk about their missing kids

AI filmmaking is peeing. It’s pooping. It’s throwing up. It’s a new kind of liquid coming out. It’s hated by the establishment. It’s what goes in the toilet. It’s wet. It’s what’s in the bathroom.

My "favorite" Kessler "fact check" was when he called Bernie Sanders a liar for correctly noting that "Three people in this country own more wealth than the bottom half of America." Kessler's argument was that it doesn't count because "people in the bottom half have essentially no wealth."

The Montreal subreddit has been rageposting about "Indian men at Parc Jarry" for a couple of days and now the most popular post is about organizing a gang to go "deal with it".

In case you're wondering how people are handling the heat.
