Taxpayers fund ICE
Taxpayers pay for vehicle and property damage caused by ICE.
Taxpayers will be paying individual and federal class action lawsuits (if won) against DHS and ICE.
It’s like a fucking pyramid Ponzi scheme.

I would argue this turn started during Harper's time as PM. I would get so frustrated by the questions CBC failed to ask.
I was a long time CBC radio listener. I can't now. Reporting is soft on the right-wing, as you point out, and the rest of the programming is increasingly vapid.

CBC has taken a noted turn towards being rather soft to the right-wing Conservative Party of Canada. They are normalizing fascism. I'm very disappointed.

I don't know how many times this has to be said, but Democrats do not want revisions to ICE policies. They want complete destruction and defunding of ICE, firing all ICE agents, closing all ICE facilities.

I am deeply and profoundly angry about the death of the mass market paperback. My life has always been filled with them, stacked double-deep in bookshelves their height let me put extra shelves in, and I will mourn them forever.
The mass market paperback, light in the hand and on the wallet, once filled airport bookstores and supermarket media aisles. You may never buy a new one again.
