"Collectively, the U.S., Canada, Australia, and Norway increased their oil and gas production by nearly 40 percent between 2015 [Paris Agreement signing] and 2024. In the rest of the world, combined oil and gas extraction dropped by 2 percent over the same period"

I'm going to start a new political party. It's called Shut The Fuck Up and Feed People.

"Or not really THAT poor?"

Taxpayers will pay [?$Ms?] for taking down photo radar and pay for putting up flashing lights and building speed bumps across the province for Mayor Doug Ford; while he fails to address the crisis in care. So that some of his friends can drive faster, and he comes across like a bro to bro voters.

If cabinet is hoping the guy who wrote the fascist playbook will give advice on stopping fascism then we are in trouble.
Adorno reminds us that clever people were the first to be suckered by the fascist playbook because they thought they could outsmart it.
There is nothing hidden in their plan.

A new bombshell report just dropped that exposes hundreds of Canadian arms shipments to Israel.

I reached out to the government about this...and their response suggested either further obfuscation or that they're uninformed about weapons exports during a genocide.

Here's what happened:

A classic.
15+ years old, but still VERY relevent — and if we had acted 15 years ago, the “better world” we’d be creating would be a LOT better & easier to reach. There are real consequences we’re just starting to see to not heeding this cartoon a lot sooner.

Even worse if we don’t heed it now. #ClimateCrisis

Carney ran against Trump’s ‘Conservative buddies,’ then governed as their collaborator. Military spending hikes, Big Tech tax cuts, and anti-Indigenous bills reveal the truth: his base was always capital, not Canadians.
Carney promised resistance and delivered retreat
Carney became prime minister on the backs of progressive voters desperate to stop a Trump–Poilievre axis from sweeping North America. But so far, his policies have served mainly to placate Trump and v...

The Minister of Education’s announcement today is nothing short of a power grab. Instead of fixing real issues—like the billions cut from education—the Ford government is playing political games with our kids’ futures. We need investments, not partisan appointments.

Elizabeth Yao was chosen to be a valedictorian because she is a natural youth leader. She is being punished by the Ottawa school board for speaking up for her classmates concerned about the genocide in Gaza.

Poilievre said he’d cut waste
—then handed us a $1M bill to save his own seat.

No to dental care, yes to self-preservation.

This isn’t fiscal responsibility. It’s political opportunism.
