Defining words that seem to stump my favorite podcasters. Without tagging them, because I'm not a dick.
"Vexing" to find frustrating or annoying.

Welcome to my new series - words that I thought more people knew. Brought to you by my favorite podcasters. "Dickensian". From the works of Charles Dickens. Used to describe anything that seems representative of the worst of the industrial revolution, like a child workhouse.

A couple of days ago I contacted my MP asking the government to formally sanction Israel. The latest action is not enough. I encourage other Canadians to do the same.

As the Alberta government ramps up its anti-LGBTQIA agenda, it might be a good idea to remind people that inclusivity benefits everyone. This UBC report on the SOGI education in BC saw a reduction in bullying for ALL groups of kids - apsc-saravyc.sites.olt.ubc.ca/files/2024/1...

Pierre Poilievre, speaking to caucus yesterday, referred to what I can only assume are the anti-genocide protests as “rampaging antisemitic riots.”
He got a standing ovation.
For seemingly pledging to crack down on people who want a genocide stopped.
Very “free speech” of him. Fucking foul

Sesame Street was so good at teaching kids that after kindergarten curriculum was advanced because kids were coming to school more prepared. Trump's cuts to educational TV is mean spirited, and will hurt low income kids the most. As with most things his regime does, this is entirely the point.

The federal election is over and Doug Ford is back to being a turd, attacking judicial independence. I really hope that Ontario residents are watching what happens in the US when judicial authority is undermined.

As it turns out, someone with significant ties to Canada — to our biggest museum, our 150th anniversary celebration, and more — is a top dog at the company behind the El Salvador deportation planes.

What happened to @rachelgilmore.bsky.social is not just about CTV caving to Conservative pressures. There’s a larger issue: #cdnmedia are pushing out any female voices, voices of colour and Indigenous voices that aren’t centre-right or right. Even then there is very little representation

It's rare in defamation cases that you can draw a straight line between someone lying about you and you losing work. But, um, not in this case.
I spoke to @sonjfatah.bsky.social, associate chair of TMU's journalism school, who said this illustrates the threat political pressure campaigns pose to press freedoms in Canada:
“It’s a sacrifice of a journalist ...They don’t want to have to deal with the reaction from the trolls.”
“It’s a sacrifice of a journalist ...They don’t want to have to deal with the reaction from the trolls.”
NEW: CTV cancelled a fact-checking segment in response to political pressure from Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives
An audio recording obtained by PressProgress shows CTV cancelled an ‘election misinformation’ segment with journalist Rachel Gilmore after online backlash from conservatives

Canada needs to suspend X, at least during federal and provincial elections. Elon Musk has openly endorsed Poilievre and I have no doubt that he'll use his platform to try to influence the election. www.politico.eu/article/musk...
