Identity politics on full display. This is 100% a conservative budget but so many libs are salivating over it because Carney can do no wrong, is above criticism, and is given grace few others would be. Unless you’re rich, things aren’t getting better, best we can hope for is they don’t get worse.

I just got back from a walk. While I was walking through the park, a little white boy and his father flagged me down from the very other end of the park. Now to be fair, I have on my hat on, so I’m easy to spot lol. The little boy drew me this. A month ago. He has been waiting to see me again.

Remember when Liberal stans said Carney cutting the Ministry of Women and Gender Equality wasn’t indicative of anything? Turns out it was.
Staring at Canada's own gender-based analysis of its budget. Give you one guess at the main beneficiary of all the major spending investments....

At the end of the day I'm not sure how much difference it makes. But it is striking to put out a budget that axes a luxury tax on yachts and adds a co-pay for refugee claimants accessing drugs and dental care.

Look, it’s really straightforward to get a publisher as a new name indie in 2025. Simply do 95% of the work making and marketing your game, and if your metrics are trending towards almost certain success, a publisher will swoop in to promise the remaining 5%, deliver 3%, and collect 75%

We all go through struggles in life. It is an inescapable part of being human.
The difference between you and the unhoused on the street is that, unlike them, you have resources and a community that has the capacity to care for you in the way you need during your time of struggle.

The mass opening of US gov accounts here just reinforces that Canada needs its own sovereign social media sites. Sorry if that’s lame but we have been trapped in the US online platform cycle for 20 years now and it’s been nothing but bad news for us.

I used to read books like Lord of the Rings or watch movies like Star Wars and think the villains were unbelievable. And of course, now watching the tech oligarchs (who could not spend all their money if they tried) destroy civilization for power, I’m like, guess I was wrong. People are that awful.

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.
No refugee underfunded a school.
No refugee closed a hospital.
No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.
We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!

A landlord turned off Tenant Client's family's heat upon learning Client was an immigrant.
Landlord hired three different law firms to argue this was legal, then fired each one after they couldn't get our case dismissed.
This week, landlord settled for enough that Client will buy a house.

Tell me something that brought you joy this week.
Any old thing will do. Small joys are as good as big ones—sometimes even better.

Last week, we asked our readers to chip in $60,000 to cover some of the costs of our press freedom lawsuit against the RCMP. Never in our wildest dreams did we think more than 1,500 of you would step up, pitching in a total of … 🥁🥁🥁 … $140,000! 🎉

Hey, remember when the Panama Papers were released and they showed how basically every wealthy person on the planet was avoiding taxes by offshoring their money and nothing was done about it except the reporter who broke the story was murdered with a car bomb?
