Because incarceration is a profit centre for certain corporate interests.
I want to be clear: this is what American prisons are like.

I spent years posting about the humanitarian crisis in U.S. prisons. The criminal legal system consigns Americans who are incarcerated to live like this FOR YEARS. DECADES.
They held him like this for 100 days.

This makes me so angry. I’ve had to get in touch with CRA several times in the last 18 months and getting a hold of a person is very difficult. Getting hold of the RIGHT person even harder. And Carney is going to make that worse?
I haven't been able to reach a human being at CRA since... 2019? Maybe longer than that.

And I'm self-employed, so CRA is up in my shit more than it is for most people.

To think it's just gonna get worse? FML.

Is the government covering up evidence it has on Epstein? 67% say yes 8% say no. I like to think of myself as a contrarian-but not this time-call me a 67 percenter

Donald Trump says that Israel “doesn’t know what the **** they’re doing”. When you think you’re the smartest person in the room, but you’re not, you get played. And he’s been played by Netanyahu and Putin alike. There’s one person who doesn’t know what the **** they’re doing, that’s for sure….

This is like playing Taylor Swift's "We Are Never Getting Back Together" at a wedding.
I did not edit this, this is the actual parade with the actual music being played.

Read this but also even just the paragraph that starts “On the 30th anniversary of the massacre, Thompson went back to My Lai and met some of the people whose lives he had saved…”

Op-Ed: A forgotten hero stopped the My Lai massacre 50 years ago today
Everybody’s heard of the My Lai massacre — March 16, 1968, 50 years ago today — but not many know about the man who stopped it: Hugh Thompson, an Army helicopter pilot.

Donald Trump federalizes national guard troops over the objections of the elected Mayor and Governor. Then deploys them.

If this isn’t the first invasion of the civil war, I need it explained to me why it’s not.

kind of ironic to go to Metro Vancouver headquarters for a story about how the public perceives the regional government only for security to come outside and demand our cameraperson stop filming the exterior of the building

Danielle Smith and her MAGA minions (Postmedia pundits I see you you) aren't responding to a wave of secessionist indignation.
She is deliberately undermining our country in the face an unprecedented predatory threat.

Canadians are coming together to defend our country and democracy.
Conservatives on the other hand are saying vote for Poilievre or they will break up the country.
Playing the traitor card is not a good look for Canada's Mini Me Trump.

This isn't a trade war. This is Donald Trump trying to drag Canada into the massive political dumpster fire he started in Washington.
Canadians won't be bullied. We will remain: True. North. Strong Free.

When Mike Myers wore his "Canada Is Not For Sale" t-shirt on SNL, he mouthed a secret code: "elbows up."
It's a reference to the great Gordie "Mr. Elbows" Howe who punished those that messed with his team.
You heard him Canada: elbows up.
If anyone asks why, tell them that Mike Myers sent you.
