“…What we are facing is the threat of Trump and Musk, who have the money and the power and the platforms to interfere in our elections…We have to stand up to that. We have to be ready for it, and we have to realize that our democracy is too important to give away.”

“…We’ve had over 150 years of thinking that our neighbour, while big and powerful, was also not an adversary. Well, that has now changed. Mr. Trump has put himself in the ranks of the authoritarians.”🧵

Former Canadian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Lloyd Axworthy, did not mince words today at an “Elbows Up” rally on Parliament Hill.
He said we are “facing an adversary to the south of us”, and that the American government “is run by a megalomaniac, who has only one thing in mind — power and greed.”🧵

Did you know Canada has a feminist, pro-choice marching band? So cool! 🥁
Winnipeg’s FAF Marching Band gave me permission to share their photo 🤩
As a former bandie with a beloved trombone gathering dust in my basement, wish I could sign up! Any other #Ottawa #feminists and bandies love this idea?

So grateful for the love, support, inspiration, lessons, opportunities, fulfillment, beauty, joy and connections (with old friends and new) that came my way in 2024, and for the peaceful moments and views too, like this one. Wishing you all a 2025 filled with all this and more.❤️
Happy New Year! 🎉

Tomorrow is the last day of #TransAwarenessWeek. But let’s keep the love and support and solidarity going all year, ok friends? 🏳️⚧️💕 Posting some photos from a 2023 March for Trans Rights (loved watching Fae Johnstone in action!), and from a rally this February against anti-trans AB gov’t policies.
