Pope Leo said in a Christmas Eve sermon that the story of Jesus being born in a stable because there was no room at an inn should remind Christians that refusing to help the poor and strangers today is tantamount to rejecting God himself. For @reuters.com

Rare Wed. off, listening to #CBCRadioOne but it featured Kevin O’Leary, right wing Cdn in the US who embraces the 51st state mentality, so turned on the Mr Dressup doc instead. Ernie Coombs, an American who moved to Canada & spread a message of creativity & inclusion on tv. He’s a Cdn icon.

The Doug Ford government dropped tire recycling targets, but consumers are still paying eco fees on tires, and there have been job losses for those who used to collect and recycle tires. This is horrible for both the environment and for workers.

We don't have to live as though constant illness is inevitable.
“Getting sick frequently at school is not inevitable, and it isn’t because kids are just harbingers of viruses. It’s more because the buildings they inhabit do not have adequate ventilation and filtration systems to reduce illness transmission,” @mjnabuurs.bsky.social said.

this is even more jarring considering 1) the months-long campaign by the president himself to annex Canada into the 51st state and 2) the severe tariffs implemented in March, which triggered a trade war and a national boycott in Canada against travel to the US or the purchase of US goods and alcohol

@mark-carney.bsky.social , the US is threatening the sovereignty of an ally of Canada’s. Will you speak out? If not, when they decide to threaten us again, how can we expect our allies to speak out?
European leaders have moved swiftly to back Greenland today after U.S. President Donald Trump had named a special envoy to the Arctic island, sparking a new diplomatic frenzy on the continent.

When I teaching the Holocaust I note the Holocaust museum’s definition of a concentration camp is a prison whose inmates are denied due process. These are by definition concentration camps.
These are concentration camps. No other way to describe them. Truly horrific, and none of it surprising in the least.
30 minutes. Some deportees described sexual assault. Detainee describes the guard sexually assaulting most detainees. Lights left on all day. Prisoners not given clean water.

Now the DHS tour. Nobody spoke to the detainees. Noem's video was in a different area of the prison.
