This is fucking insane and I am astonished at how irresponsible Global News upper management is being with this.

They’re risking the credibility of all their journalists and for…what? Canada’s worst nepo baby?
Ben Mulroney is blurring the lines between journalism, business, lobbying and partisan politics

The new host of Global News’ national political news show also works for registered lobby groups, advises businesses and hosted election events for Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives earlier this year

Pregnant women ‘should not feel guilty’ about using Tylenol: Ontario Pharmacists Association - there is no link to autism #Canada

Trump is an idiot!!

This openly QUEER WOMAN FROM THE ACTUAL RIDING as per a Yahoo news article, "says she also objects to right-wing points of view on trans issues" is running against Pierre Poilievre folks.

A definite sign of being on the right side of history is using unmarked cars, lying about your credentials, and then hiding your identities while trying to kidnap children. Lesser men might be prone to introspection there.
BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

Trump fired the Librarian of Congress without cause!

Send an email to your representative to stop Trump's attack on the Library of Congress.

"The soundtrack for the game thus far has been very epic and sad, very French actually!" Continued to explain that the game actually is a French game, so it makes sense

Allies, stop talking about 'trans' and start talking about 'trans people' - and correct your colleagues on this.

It's doing my head in.

The issue with Canada is getting people to vote by going to the polling station or mailing in their ballots.

In the last provincial election in Ontario, only 42-43% voted. Canadians need to do better than this.

Elon Musk is a Nazi. Full stop. Substack is supporting and endorsing a Nazi, days after that Nazi told the world he was proud to be a Nazi.

Decent people have got to leave Substack. Please. I'll follow you wherever you go, and I'm happy to give you my money wherever you land.

An absolutely vital method of resistance right now is to demand consent culture.

We are witnessing the rapid theft of choices, spaces, and rights.

It’s time to make people who say that “Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion is racist” to prove it.
Show how diversity is a problem.
Prove how equity is an issue & for whom.
Demonstrate how inclusion is harmful & harmful to whom.
Treat them like they treat Black folks when we call out actual racism.

Today I remember the thousands of gay, trans, black, disabled, Roma and Sinti people executed by the Nazis, who hated them almost as much as the Jews. I also remember those brave enough to shelter or help them. May their courage inspire us.
