Just Bailey (my rescue dog who thinks he’s my boss) and I - living in Montreal, Quebec. 🇨🇦 🍁

30 years ago today, Canada came to Quebec's aid to save us from a referendum that would have changed Canada forever.

I attended the incredible rally - 100k+. I had never witnessed or taken part in such a Unity of Patriotism.

We still stand strong and united.

My birdcam doesn’t only capture birds, it recorded my playtime at the end of today with my 11.5 year old dog. He was literally hopping around - so happy to be playing in the snow.

Epstein survivor Danielle Bensky: The emails really speak for themselves. Survivors have been very clear that anyone who has harmed people should face accountability. They should be brought to justice. And the only way we're going to do that is by releasing all the files

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

BREAKING: At Pope Leo XIV’s urging, U.S. Catholic bishops just delivered the strongest rebuke of a sitting president in Church history — condemning Trump-Vance raids as “inhumane” and “dehumanizing” in a 216–5 vote.
NEW: At Pope Leo’s Urging, Bishops Issue Historic Rebuke of Trump’s Raids
Nearly all U.S. Catholic bishops united in Baltimore to denounce the Trump administration’s “inhumane” deportation campaign — a near-unanimous, unprecedented moral stand against a sitting president.

With the arrival of winter (a little too early), the birds food supply is now buried.

Luckily, the neighborhood birds have found my feeder.

A Finch ONLY food fest was held this afternoon - captured by my #birdcam

The Cardinals are always a welcome visitor to the feeder. Their bright colors contrast perfectly with the white snow.

They didn’t stay long as there is a pod of Grackles in the area that are scaring all the birds. I thought they had migrated.

I really like Bernie Sanders’ elder statesman era.

Unlike too many older politicians who cling to power and perpetuate an outdated political culture, Bernie is actively mentoring the next generation of progressive leaders before he retires.

It’s how it should be.
And it’s working.

There’s a feeding frenzy at the bird feeder this morning. I wonder if they are agitated from listening to the electric transformers blowing up or the sound of power surges all night long. Most of my area is without power this morning.

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."

The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.

And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

Instead of the news cycle being dominated by the GOP's implosion over Carlson's interview with Fuentes, everyone is talking about the betrayal by Senate Democrats.

WHAT WERE THE DEMS THINKING????????????????????

Are they trying to lose the momentum into the midterms????????????????????

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.

Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.

The American people need more from their leaders.

I’m voting no on the continuing resolution that would double healthcare premiums for 20 million Americans, kick 15 million people off Medicaid & allow 50,000 Americans to die unnecessarily every year.

All to give $1 trillion in tax breaks for billionaires.

So much for the heavy snowfall - it has turned to freezing rain.

I HATE freezing rain. 🥶.
So does the bird feeder.

Even a mixture of ice pellets and snow doesn’t stop a Cardinal from getting his belly full.

Yes, Mr. President: You’re right. We do have “the worst health care” of any major country.

Despite spending twice as much per capita, we are the only major country not to guarantee health care to all as a human right.

The solution: Medicare for All.

“Canada’s left-leaning political parties and politicians must recognize that the only ones holding them back are themselves. There’s now officially no excuse — bold campaigns will win the day. As for Montreal, we can never sit out an election again: just like the rent, the stakes are too damn high.”

This Blue Jay seems to be in a hurry to eat before the heavy snow arrives this afternoon and this evening. 15+cm

The light snow is just starting to fall and the wind is picking up.
