Hey, check your local libraries for free access to news sources that you might otherwise have to pay for.
Many libraries offer online access and you can even copy article links and share them. 👍

A reminder that fiction — books, film, games, what have you — is always political. The willful absence of “politics” in any work is itself a political choice and a political act. Who gets to tell (and sell) stories is political. It might be an undercurrent — covert, not overt. But it’s there.

Dear Canada, we are not better than everyone else. Literacy rates in the country continue to fall. Literacy is the foundation on which critical thinking is built. Consider why they want to take it from us and vote accordingly. #readingasresistance
