As Hockey Canada trial resumes, survivors push Ontario to end ‘paternalistic’ ban on restorative justice for sex assault.
“It’s just so paternalistic and so inhumane to force survivors into a process they don’t want to go through."

“It’s just so paternalistic and so inhumane to force survivors into a process they don’t want to go through,” said sex assault survivor Marlee Liss. “That’s the opposite of consent.”

As someone who often lobbied governments to adopt climate change policies and was told they would cause too much economic disruption, I now watch this totally arbitrary dismantling of the global economy for absolutely NO reason and think what a load of crap these “but the economy” people fed us all

This is why I get really upset when Trump is presented as an aberration.
He’s not. He’s the natural and inevitable result of a country that glorifies rape and murder.

The meeting is in Quebec City. Be it resolved that absolutely every Canadian he encounters — from Melanie Joly to the waiters that serve him at the official banquet — should speak to him exclusively in French. Make him use a translator even if he’s just ordering room service.

Interesting article on Zelenskyy. The irony? Zelenskyy was an unpopular president. Once the war began he rallied his country and the world. Putin’s war elevated Zelenskyy to popularity heights no one could have ever imagined, and Zelenskyy stepped up. Suckerrrsssss! www.spiegel.de/internationa...

Maybe it’s time for a G6?
It’s amazing to me that people still question whether or not Trump is a stooge for Putin.

Question: why is Canada not talking to the Mexicans. Seems like it would be smart to work with them at this point.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Tuesday Ottawa will work to convince U.S. President Donald Trump that his “unacceptable” steel and aluminum tariffs will hurt both countries.
Trudeau says Canada will push back on U.S. tariffs with Trump administration
Trump signed an executive order Monday to implement 25 per cent tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports into the United States.
