It's time to stand up for the CBC. Pierre Poilievre has plainly stated that he plans to shut down the CBC.

The CBC is a lifeline for Canadians who are being bombarded by US right-wing propaganda. We can't allow him to take it away.

There's so much support for independent media in Canada, which is really good to see!

At this perilous moment, Canadians know that if lose our Canadian-owned news and entertainment options we are in deep trouble.

If you work in a library and are currently cataloguing a garden book by an author with a better name than TWIGS WAY then I'd like to know about it.

Trump's tariffs on Canada and Mexico have begun.

Canada is fighting back -- but Trudeau's retaliation should just be the start. Why not put 100% tariffs on all Elon Musk products and cancel Starlink deals?

Join the call to the Canadian government to make Elon pay:

Trump has launched an unprecedented trade war on Canada. Tariffs are his economic weapon of choice, for now, but he’s also ramping up talk of annexation, saying without support from the US “Canada cea

Trump just orchestrated one of the most shameful moments in US history.

We need *all leaders* outside the US to stand up to Trump.

For that we need to show they have our backing. Add your name and share this link widely, it has never been more critical to have our voices heard:

Your good new story for the day.
I just received a message from a landlord in Florida. He has lost over $30,000 in rentals since Canadians began the boycott.
Canadians are doing their part.
LET'S TAKE THE BOYCOTT INTERNATIONAL.
We invite allied nations to boycott all things American.

From The Coast News: “Rather than using this month to stand down, I’ll be interested to see if we take the time to strengthen our self-sufficiency so that we can better protect ourselves from the on-again, off-again threats from Donald Trump.” YUP. That sounds better than wait-and-see!! #tradewar
