Carney: International finance and commerce
Singh: Criminal defence lawyer
May: Environmental lawyer / Pedneault: Journalist
Blanchet: Owner artist management firm

Starlink as a geopolitical bargaining chip? The U.S. is reportedly pressuring Ukraine to hand over mineral rights—or risk losing internet access.
Corporate extortion at its finest.
No public contracts for a billionaire who treats entire countries as leverage.

The threat of toxic politics
With former Conservative Prime Minister Joe Clark.
I recently spoke with former Con Cabinet minister David McDonald about threat of toxic politics.
They are a different breed of Conservatives.
Trump is coming at us.
Poilievre's rage politics is corrosive to our nation.
We need to stand together.

On pessimism, optimism, and hope: The world can't afford any more pessimism.
As for optimism, it tells us that everything will be OK.
That's the thinking that got us in this mess.
But hope gives us courage to believe that things can be changed.
I have hope.
Lots and lots of hope.

PP has lived off the public dime his whole adult life
Pierre Poilievre rants about the elites and insiders.
The guy has never had a job other than politician.
He lives in a 19 room mansion with his own chef -- all paid for by the taxpayers.
Come with me on a journey to Stornoway where the real political elitist lives.

Unified approach is needed -
It's almost like the economy emerges from and is fully dependent on the biosphere. "The Nexus report, as it is officially known, says that more than half of global gross domestic product – $50 trillion – is moderately to highly dependent on nature."

Thoughts on being 62.
Cynicism is a cheap luxury none of us can afford.
Despair is where you go when you lose steam in the rage wars.
So disengage.
Our job as elders is to be there for the young.
To call out the motherfuckers of disinformation.
To build on the history of resistance.
To give hope.

PP the sock puppet
I called out the Conservative leader who lives in a 19-room mansion at Stornoway for being a sock puppet for Donald Trump.
Predatory and pusillanimous. Selling out our country to the likes of Donald Trump.

The truth
The world is 700% richer than in 1970 but the average person is only 8% richer.
Because the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer.
We are all being robbed every second of every day, and it doesn't matter how much profit or growth there is.
It will never reach you.

The private phone was being used for government business.

A way to makes sense of this crazy situation we are all in
I don't see the battle as between republicans and democrats but between two ideas of where safety and belonging comes from. Do you try to feel safe and accepted by dominating or by participating in mutual relationships?
