AWFULLY POLITICAL

Unapologetic commentary from the left edge. Fighting disinfo, defending democracy, and torching right-wing BS. No filters. No apologies. Tired of the nonsense? Pull up a chair.
Because peace is not achieved by pretending both sides share equal blame — it’s achieved by identifying the truth, protecting civilians, and insisting on diplomacy over bullets.

If civilians are dying, if borders are being redrawn by force, if ceasefires collapse due to bad-faith actions, Canada must speak with clarity and conviction.

1.) Ceasefires fail when there is no accountability.

2.) Civilians always pay the highest price.

3.) North America cannot hide behind neutrality when human rights are at stake.

He is eroding the very legitimacy of the institution he leads.

For nearly three years, Ukraine has fought not only for its territory but for the principle that borders cannot be redrawn by brute force. To suggest that Kyiv should sit across the table from Moscow is to ignore history, reward aggression, and imperil the very foundations of international law.

Softwood lumber is more than a commodity. It’s the backbone of housing, the lifeline of rural economies, and the test of whether governments defend people or cave to pressure. Canada chose defense. Progressives stand behind that choice.

The real unfairness isn’t Canadian subsidies—it’s U.S. tariffs designed to choke off competition and inflate profits. The Coalition wants to frame Canada as the villain, but the villain is a system that treats workers as pawns in a corporate trade game.

Ottawa is saying: our economy won’t be hostage to U.S. protectionism. And progressives stand behind that.

Subsidies keep projects alive, keep roofs affordable, and keep workers employed.
This isn’t distortion—it’s sovereignty. Canada is refusing to let Wall Street lobbyists dictate the fate of rural towns.

The U.S. Lumber Coalition calls it “unfair trade.” Progressives call it survival. Because softwood isn’t just lumber—it’s homes, jobs, and dignity. Every tariff the U.S. imposes drives up housing costs, squeezes builders, and punishes ordinary people.

Shields for 217,000 families who depend on mills, forests, and paychecks. Shields for communities from B.C. to Newfoundland that refuse to be collateral damage in America’s trade war.

But if he’s innocent, why does he need a pardon? And if he needs a pardon, why won’t he admit guilt?

You can’t have it both ways.

And let’s not ignore the irony here. Netanyahu’s allies — like Itamar Ben‑Gvir, who calls the indictments ‘fabricated and disgraceful’ — want a pardon precisely because they believe Netanyahu is innocent.
