Important correction: this suicide hotline is specifically for trans/NB people to speak to a trans/NB hotline worker. It’s also the Canadian number. The US number they offer is 1-877-565-8860. And it is, again, not a general suicide hotline.

I really, really need to get “I want to” stickers to stealth-add them onto these bumper stickers and flags.

Conservatives and Liberals have supported the CBC for 87 years.

So what’s changed?

Pierre Poilievre doesn’t like getting asked tough questions.

The CBC isn’t Liberal or Conservative, it’s just Canadian.

From crackling radios to digital streams, CBC has always been there—telling our stories, connecting our communities.

Lose the CBC, and we lose more than programs.
We lose one of the last spaces that belongs to all of us.

Let’s protect it.

Israel is trying to interfere in the Canadian election, less than 48 hours after Trump met with Netanyahu. The Israelis are gunning for Carney and coercing the liberal party to pledge fealty. It’s time to stop appeasing war criminals. It’s the same act they hit the US Democratic Party with. #cdnpoli

Hana Gartner didn’t just report the news—she held power to account.

CBC made fearless journalism like hers possible. Poilievre wants to defund it.

Watch her legacy: youtu.be/-Q805xxe2Wc?...

Hmmm. Interesting that almost all leaders had a good quote to share…

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney:

"If the United States no longer wants to lead, Canada will."

This is what real leadership looks like.

These are so cool - like the “Victory” houses built post-war. I’d love to live in a home like some of these. Affordable to build and maintain, it seems.

You know you're Canadian when you've been kicked out of at least one bar for standing on the chair and leading the crowd in a great anthem about stealing yankee gold.
With deep apologies to that nice little club in Jasper.
Or was it Halifax?

Poilievre sure hates the CBC.
Pierre Poilievre doesn't hate *all* media - just the ones who hold him accountable.

To him, they’re a “small cabal of government-approved mouthpieces.”

That’s what he told Candice Malcolm, co-founder of True North (and wife of a Shopify executive) in a recent one-on-one sit down.

Oh, the irony.
