Israeli forces killed nine Palestinians in the Gaza Strip on Monday, amid daily violations of a ceasefire agreement.

Since the “ceasefire” began on October 11, Israel has killed at least 587 Palestinians. Over 1,550 have been injured. Death toll figures are tentative.

Horrific.
Prayers for Tumbler Ridge. I don't know what else to say at this time in the face of this immense tragedy and crime.

Facts: Canada did pay 100% of the cost .. even buying the land needed on the USA side .. they used both american & Canadian steel and workers then gifted 1/2 the bridge to Michigan

Everything Trump posted is a lie … every fucking word

How unfair of us … 🤦‍♂️🇨🇦💪

Will someone get this old man the medical help he needs? He is totally delusional and blatantly unfit mentally. Long past the time when someone should take away 'the keys'.

The focus of the U.S. Olympic Hockey team commercial emphasized on beating Canada and saying “We are not friends” message”.

Canada’s Olympic commercial on the other hand, focused on being a community.

Nice to know we live rent-free in their heads.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

- position 🇨🇦 as a global leader in production of electric and autonomous auto
- we continue to look for zero tariffs on auto with US but we must recognize that this is not the objective of the US at this moment in history
-future of auto is electric & connected

“We have everything we need to take the lead in the vehicles of tomorrow. And we’re positioning Canadian workers and businesses to seize that opportunity,” says PM Mark Carney in Vaughan, Ont., as he announces a new national automotive strategy.

Stephen Harper says the US is a "hostile" regime and Canada must urgently reduce its economic ties and hit back with counter tariffs.
He says business leaders are fooling themselves if they think things will go back to normal.
When I find myself in the same trench as Stephen Harper it's serious.

This will have a major impact.
CTV has a story with a little more info.
"What makes Project Thor different from many other alumunium projects in the world is it’s vast amount of aluminia discovered in a relatively small space, what Hopkins described as a “postage stamp.”"

One of the reasons I'm a hermit is that I am hyper-sensitive to the emotional states of the other humans around me. It can be paralysing. Lately, it feels like I'm drowning under waves of collective grief. Let's carry this heavy weight for each other when we can.

The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.
