This is straight up, one of the most absurd ideas I've ever encountered.
Subscribe to the Ottawa Citizen and read the latest scoop by @davidpugliese.bsky.social:
Canadian military will rely on an army of public servants to boost its ranks by 300,000
Federal public servants would be trained to shoot guns, drive trucks and fly drones, according to a defence department directive.

I have a confession to make. I put measles into Tim Horton’s coffee. I’m sorry I just thought it would make it taste better. I should have known nothing could do that.

Oof just heard Stephen Maher pronounce Poilievre as “Pauliver” (rhymes with Oliver) on CBC Frontburner.
My two cents is that Poilievre is going to be fine in January. It’s mainly because there’s no viable alternative at this point.

It's official: Canada has lost its measles elimination status because of an outbreak that has persisted for more than 12 months. Country can regain status only if on-going spread is of measles interrupted for more than a year. www.cbc.ca/news/health/... via @cbcnews.ca

As an indie podcaster since 2016 with a day job, I found a lot of this discussion about the stark realities of making a podcast in Canada rather relatable (if not triggering 😏).
This week on The North State, I’ve got budgets on the mind. Not the federal budget, but how the hell independent journalists get paid. I sat down with @arshy.bsky.social of The Hatchet and then @nicolefroio.bsky.social of @theflytrapmedia.com to get the ins and outs of paying for news. #cdnnews
