Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.

It doesn't have to be this way.

Elon Musk’s new pay package would feed all forty million Americans on SNAP for the next ten years. He wouldn’t notice the difference but the country would.

#Resist Albertans!

Apparently all you have to do to get under the #UCP MLAs skin is reply to their Facebook posts with outrage about them using the notwithstanding clause. They start to melt like snowflakes.

TURN UP THE HEAT #Alberta!

Anytime anyone claims that Smith used the Notwithstanding clause in a way that Peter Lougheed would have approved of…

Feel free to share this from his 1998 paper that makes it clear that absolutely isn’t the case.

We did this once, let's do it again.
#EconomicBlackOut at a time when big box corporations are expecting us to spend our $$$.
PLAN AHEAD so there is no "spending spike" immediately before & after. Only support small businesses if you must purchase. SHARE so more people know.

Back to work legislation has been used by many federal and provincial governments over the last 40 years. It did not require the notwithstanding clause.

Contest every race. Have a candidate in every race on every ballot in every county in every state.

Run even if you know you can’t win. Run because you know you can’t win.

No seat uncontested. Bring the fight to every ballot.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Doug Ford's ad has nothing on the Joe Canadian ad.
Best ad ever.
I will be at the Lunenburg Literary Festival on Saturday Nov 8 for a conversation with Joe Canada. Get your tickets. This will be a truly Canadian moment.

We are at the point where Danielle Smith would rather violate charter rights and create a constitutional crisis…

Instead of paying teachers fairly and giving kids the classrooms they need.

Read that again.

Because this is where we are.

Angus: Canada is reconsidering that relationship with China. Why? Because we can no longer trust the US.

And we know that we have 150, maybe more, Canadians in custody at ICE detention centers. We had two Canadians under Chinese custody and it caused a huge outcry. We now have over 150 in the US.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

*1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.”
