Carney is creating a legislative environment for a Canadian ICE and your ignorance does not mean that isn’t happening.
Huh, also, probably not at all related, super cool how Bill C-15 would allow cabinet ministers to exempt companies from any law (except the criminal code) www.policyalternatives.ca/news-researc...
Bill C-15 would allow corporations to be exempt from most Canadian laws - CCPA
Buried on page 300 of the government’s omnibus budget implementation bill is an extremely troubling clause regarding corporate power in Canada—one that allows all cabinet ministers to exempt any indiv...

They call them “technical updates.” They look like a suppression package that caters to her wealthy donors. And the timing? Classic MAGA—do it when everyone’s looking somewhere else.

A Canadian-made armoured vehicle was spotted on Minneapolis streets the day ICE murdered Alex Pretti.
The company that sold ICE that monster as part of a $10 million deal? Roshel.
What’s more:
Canada’s government brought Roshel’s CEO on a trade mission SIX DAYS AFTER Renee Good was murdered.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”
That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days.
His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

The Dems' weakness is as bad as Rep's violence. They need to do more!!
So.
To date, I have seen ONE Dem Rep in Congress call for ICE to be abolished. Ilhan Omar.
Not defunded. Not trained and restrained.
ABOLISHED.
Are there any others? If so, post them and let's get a count on the number of Dems in Congress.

Any Canadian company willing to work with ICE is exactly like companies willing to do business with Nazis in the 1930s.
I've reached out to all Canadian companies listed here to ask if they intend to continue working with ICE:
Hootsuite
Roshel
Garda
Jim Pattison Developments
I've also reached out to @anitaoakvilleeast.bsky.social's team for comment on export permits for Canadian sale of armoured vehicles to ICE.

Drop the names of any Canadian companies you’ve seen working with ICE in the comments.
I’m aware of Gardaworld, Roshel, Hootsuite.
Would love to gather any and all other names.

The biggest problem today is that the right really has nothing to stand on. ICE is killing citizens and they are ok with because it's the "left" who are protesting. They don't see that if the constitution doesn't apply to some people, that it actually means it applies to no one, including them.

Message to fellow journalists (and anyone claiming to be one): do not “police-involved shooting” executions in broad daylight.
Obfuscating language like that is completely journalistically unnecessary and, even worse, sanitizes reality.
Words have meaning. Use the right ones.

After firing your weapon once to incapacitate the person, you will feel a bit of a rush, so be sure to empty your clip into them, for maximum bragging rights back in the locker room.

We have been told for nearly 30 years that America needed to tolerate mass shootings because the broad availability of guns would help us defend ourselves from an overreaching federal government. That day has come. The people who said this are supporting the federal agents. Many have joined them.

The US is murdering their own citizens. Stop pretending that it is not fascism.
Initial report is that two observers got into a shoving match with eight agents, one observer was wrestled to the ground, and then an ICE agent pulled out a sidearm and shot the man on the ground five times.

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

When Mark Carney became Prime Minister he said he would work with any leaders, from any party! And he has.
