Higher fees = higher debt = less access for the students who need education most. That’s not fairness, that’s austerity. Make tuition free!

Yeah this is one of those things that just has to stay in your mind whenever you cover RCMP
What's your favourite Canada fact? Mine is that the RCMP bombed an oil site in Alberta in 1998 "with the full support of the energy company that owned it" and blamed a farmer for it.

Horrific indeed. Also horrific is that Canadian companies — from Roshel, which is providing armoured vehicles, to @hootsuite.com, which is providing social media analysis—are choosing to work with ICE.
Shame on them.

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.
We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Around 2014, when Solomon was using his CBC job to peddle art to Mark Carney, BLM was mobilizing against racist state brutality in Ferguson.
Now Carney has tasked Solomon with cheerleading the worst evils of AI while ICE uses it to rebuild apartheid.
