There are perennial warnings that America is coming for Canada's freshwater and 99 times out of 100 you can ignore it as alarmism not grounded in fact.

This is what "coming for our water" would look like in reality, and not just alarmism. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/w...

"I am here to stand before the body and say that my life is not a fetish. My existence is not a fetish. I was proud within a month ago to have my son up in the gallery here.... When I go to walk him to school, that’s not a lascivious display. That is not a fetish. That is my family."

Does any other Canadian find it ironic that we are having to fight for our right as a sovereign nation? Our biggest trading partner is trying to take us down. #indigenousrights #irony #canadianhistory

📣 X isn’t the Twitter it once was. Under Elon Musk, a non-elected member of a foreign government that just put crippling tariffs on Canada, the hate, conspiracy theories, and disinformation have increased.

Help us tell Canadian Members of Parliament: Stop Using X! 👇

I know it's a hard time for everyone, but the status quo sucked. It was unsustainable. This has made everyone wake up and get involved. Buy less and local, grow your own food, and force governments to support local infrastructure. Why are we exporting raw materials to import finished products?

Some wise words from Kiefer Sutherland. If you missed the advance voting period, you can still go to your local Elections Ontario returning office until Wednesday at 6 PM to cast your vote early. Go to elections.on.ca to find out where. We have four days left to #VoteFordOut! #ONpoli #ONDP #OLP #GPO
Thank you Kiefer Sutherland. Don't vote for Ford.

Mother jones actually broke this story. The Washington Post failed to mention that, and in fact, took credit for the scoop.
SCOOP: Kash Patel took $25,000 from a production company with ties to Russia propaganda activity to appear in an anti-FBI docuseries. He did not respond to questions about this.

Mental illness is a real fucking awful shitstorm. The only difference between me and a homeless person is a good family, amazing support system, medication, and education. Here's hoping that the chemicals in my brain balance out soon. 🤞

Crazy thought... how about we all stop talking about them. Just stop letting them be the news. Don't stop reporting... just do analysis of policies being implemented and their impacts on real people. Let's stop mentioning their names!
