NDP Leadership Race hot take: Giving Tuesday is supposed to be for charities and non-profits, and taking up oxygen from them when both are struggling is kinda scummy.

Chandra has proven she knows how to win where we haven’t won before. She and her team have won her elections one conversation at the time.
As someone who knows a a little something about that, I deeply appreciate her support and confidence

Thank you to my colleague @glengower.bsky.social for this post on the alarming increase in evictions in Ottawa over the last few years. More from me this week, along with a proposed solution to get us closer to better protections against renovictions.

Gladiator II feels like it was written by a 13-year old American with ADHD who had just skimmed the Wikipedia page for Arthurian Mythology. In short Gladiator II is the most Gladiator II movie ever made.
It’s pretty good.

I'm probably going to drop this for the sake of my own sanity, but here's some final thoughts on the Canadian Politics discourse from the past few days.
Here comes a (long) #cndpoli thread!
A lot of the LPC supporters here remind me of myself in 2011, and not in a good way.

A family in Kenora traveled 1,700 km to London because there were no pediatric ICU beds in northern hospitals. Meanwhile, their Premier wants them to pay $400 for a luxury spa in downtown Toronto. That’s the Cost of Doug—and like you, I’m ready to cut it. For good.
A family in Sudbury is paying $400 to build a luxury spa in downtown Toronto. That's the Cost of Doug, and it’s been the same pattern all year long. Things have got to change in this province, and fast.

I’d like to invite the several mutuals I have with LA Legault to consider if they support the racist tirade she’s been on for the past day.
Lib discourse reaching all time ridiculous levels, with this person calling Jagmeet Singh a nazi collaborator for not supporting her terribly unpopular preferred Prime Minister.

"Public investment" vs "Wasteful Subsidy." The only problem with this clever Singer cartoon is that some people might actually not get that it’s sarcastically illustrating the perception problem, NOT telling the truth. Just in case it actually needs to be said, the truth is the opposite.

Liberals are imploding on the eve of a trade war with American Billionaires.
Conservatives are salivating at the chance to take power for those same Billionaires.
Fellow Canadians, we must have the courage to unite and stand up for Canada.
For our jobs, for better wages, and for our democracy.

Ea-nāṣir is the recipient of the world’s oldest complaint letter. He’s reportedly the worst businessman of the 18th century, a mediocre conman whose actions should have him put out of business. Is this fair?
