If the US moves to take over Greenland – a threat we’d be foolish to dismiss – Canada would be forced to rethink every aspect of its relations with the US. Canadian officials need to start thinking though this nightmarish scenario now, not later. It would be a seismic event.

Today's events with ICE are an example of why I don't quibble about calling the Trump regime fascist. There's no utility in throwing around academic terms like 'competitive authoritarianism' when the President has a personal army invading cities and murdering citizens. It's fascism.

2 days after Elizabeth May saved @mark-carney.bsky.social's bacon by voting for the budget on the back of backroom climate policy promises, the govt has signed a MOA with Alberta on a pipeline running thru BC, with emissions caps reduced & exemptions for shipping oil on the north coast.

Shrinkflation has hit Halloween candy big-time: every year treats get smaller & prices higher. Not a trick I enjoy, nor do kids.

The Canadian government might be slow to react to a genocide after two years, but it's lightening fast to ban an Irish band expressing outrage about the erasure of Palestine. What happened to freedom of speech? #Kneecap #cdnpoli

It boggles sane minds that the world cares more about Taylor Swift's engagement than Israel's deliberate murder of journalists & medics rushing to report/assist the Gaza hospital Israel bombed moments before. The West has lost their humanity & compassion. International law is just words on paper.

Another day of the slaughter of children in Gaza.
They are murdered at hospital clinics, when they attempt to get food, when they try to get water.
Meanwhile silence from western leaders.
Pretending there is no genocide makes you complicit in the genocide.

Well, @mark-carney.bsky.social, it's elbows down, eh? Almost Canada Day & it's all about sucking up to Trump by rescinding the digital tax, even though he'll find something else to f**k us over . You're making Pierre Poilievre & the CPC proud. I'm so very, very disappointed. @wadegrant.bsky.social

My parsley overwintered, so it had a head start in spring growth, basically went into overdrive & is now at mid-season volumes. The burning question: How to consume it all?? The answer? Tabouli!

So, when will world leaders finally act on Israel's genocide, citing international law that's being flouted so violently & horrifically daily?? And @mark-carney.bsky.social are you really demanding Palestinians adopt Zionism? When they're being deliberately erased?
Israeli officers and soldiers have revealed they’ve been ordered to deliberately shoot at unarmed Palestinians trying to get aid.

That’s in Israeli newspaper Haaretz.

Israel is deliberately massacring civilians it’s deliberately starving.

There are few crimes more depraved.
