To save Canadian democracy from the far-right, all progressives will need to work together to resist Harper's IDU and Poilievre's CPC.

Good people protect the most vulnerable amongst them.

It’s ingrained and indoctrinated on US military members not to follow Unlawful orders. Trump never has taken his oath seriously, he will never understand this.

Approval of Pierre Poilievre has reached an all-time low.

“A large majority of Canadians disapprove of the Conservative Party leader.”

252 mph wind gust was just observed off the surface in Melissa's southeast eyewall! This is the strongest gust EVER observed in a hurricane.

Jamaican residents had no choice about being there when Melissa hit.
Tourists didn't need to wait for an airline or travel agency to tell them what to do. If you're going to travel to the Caribbean in hurricane season, check the forecast and make your own mind up.

After staff cuts earlier this year, some veteran NOAA hurricane researchers are working on a volunteer basis to help collect data from Melissa and other storms. “With the losses, we have a very young remaining staff and not a lot of experience flying in hurricanes."

Melissa made landfall in Jamaica as a cat 5 with wind speeds around *185 mph*, I think only the second recorded storm to ever do that. That's as strong as an F4 tornado, only, you know, hurricane-sized.
