The kidnapping of Maduro isn’t all that new for US foreign policy.

A bit more brazen - no doubt.

But still part of a long standing agenda to gain access to the resources of South America.

And the Chavistas will respond as they always have.

AI doesn’t live up to the hype.

And employers know this - including the government of Canada - but will still use it to replace workers.

Don't kid yourself, Canada is closer to the awfulness that is ICE - thanks to our so-called 'bleeding heart' Liberals.

Imagine what the Conservatives would do with the legislative framework Carney is laying down with BillC12…

Immediately following the Bondi Beach attack, a narrative was formed.

A dangerous one that paves the way for the suppression of rights across the 🌍

Including 🇨🇦’s Bill C9

@jewssayno.bsky.social talk about the legislation, as well as the weaponization of antisemitism used to make it law.

This episode of @blueprints.bsky.social convinced me that reforming the NDP is impossible.

We really need a new eco-democratic socialist party in Canada.

The YMCA and the NDP didn’t just fail to defend Rana Zaman when the 🇮🇱 lobby came for her…

They joined in and made space for more attacks.

Hear how in our interview with Rana:

The YMCA caved to the Israeli lobby and rescinded Activist Rana Zaman’s Peace Medal.

They were the first institution to betray Rana’s trust, as well as the Palestinian solidarity movement.
