If you knew Paul Monette, know that I knew Paul Monette, and know that I wish for him what we all wish for ourselves: to live on somehow as long as we are remembered. I was in his class. I went away, but I hope I never left the voices that celebrate, circle, shout out, shine.
Canadians: write your MP to oppose the export of these weapons, which will definitely be used against citizens. The Prime Minister has the power under the Export and Import Permits Act to stop the sale. Did he mean what he said in Davos?

Land of the free? Home of the brave?
Door-to-door warrantless ICE raids are going on now in Minnesota with children in the home. ICE goons with automatic weapons enter, one shined a taser light into the camera to block the mother from videoing ICE searching the home and detaining the occupant.

Donald Trump just killed Alberta's pipeline dreams
Albertans love to accuse Justin Trudeau of trying to cripple their oil and gas industry. Now, Donald Trump might actually end up doing it — by accident.

I wish it wasn't an American tradition to send good men and women to die in quagmires for all the wrong reasons.

They don't want us to learn history for this very reason.
