Is it just me or has Scotiabank’s “you’re richer than you think” campaign gone from owning a house, international travel, comfortable retirement, and starting a business to going on a date where you are splitting the bills on glasses of water and complimentary bread?

50 year mortgages. 15 year car notes. It’s like rent to never own. How is any of this sustainable?

It’ll never leave me, the Republican Democrats that successfully made this guy toxic with the tag “Bro”.

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

Every single vote for them was a Republican vote.

Dems emerging from 2 hour caucus meeting saying they are unified on next steps on shutdown

“We’re unified on how we’re moving forward,” says Sen. Duckworth. “The key part of it is health care and taking care of our federal workers.”

“What we’re going to say, we’re going to be unified behind it”

Brazil’s André Corrêa do Lago says countries should follow China’s lead on clean energy as conference begins * Cop30: what are the main issues? * Net zero to NDCs: your Cop30 jargon buster Rich countries have lost enthusiasm for combating the climate crisis while China is surging ahead in producing and using clean energy equipment, the president of the UN climate talks has said. More countries should follow China’s lead instead of complaining about being outcompeted, said André Corrêa do Lago, the Brazilian diplomat in charge of the Cop30 conference, which begins on Monday.

So it turns out that airports in the US are deeply dependent on money from the federal govt and they basically can't exist without it. Socialism, man. It's where you least expect it, but you should expect it because private businesses don't fund shit. Taxpayers do.

The news that Lethbridge police got away with stalking, harassing and threatening Phillips because the chance of conviction was too low is an indictment of the entire justice system in Alberta.

In many respects, this is the most harmful budget from a climate perspective since the Harper era, writes Hadrian Mertins-Kirkwood
Oil and gas trumps climate action in brutal federal budget
The budget makes clear that fossil fuel production for export is a central pillar of this government’s economic strategy — and that it won’t let climate measures get in the way.

It’s really important that #Vancouver’s Downtown Business Association, who were originally against bike-lanes, are now among their most vigourous supporters, because of ACTUAL EVIDENCE that they’re better for downtown business than any street parking they replaced.

Safe bike-lanes mean business.

Open letter to Postmedia and @calgaryherald.com to call for the OpEd by @guyfelicella.bsky.social to be republished immediately. Silencing people with lived experience is not in keeping with journalistic standards silences us all.
#media #journalism #freespeech

Screenshot of letter P1 We, the undersigned, are writing to you in regard to an opinion article by Mr. Guy Felicella [ Reprinted here by the Breakdown ] that was published in the Calgary Herald on October 1, 2025, but was subsequently removed without this being communicated to the writer. We ask that this article is re-published immediately and that an apology is issued. Mr. Felicella wrote his article in response to a previous opinion piece by Mr. Marshall Smith , the former chief of staff of the Premier of Alberta, published in the Calgary Herald on September 23, 2025, entitled “Opinion: Banning public drug use is bold, courageous and obvious”. This letter does not mean to address the substance of Mr. Smith’s or Mr. Felicella’s articles, but rather the issue of freedom of speech and freedom of the press. As a person with considerable lived experience in substance use and as an advocate who bridges harm reduction and recovery, Mr. Felicella expressed his concern over Mr. Smith’s approach. In his article Mr. Felicella did not defame, slander or misrepresent facts. He offered a different perspective that is informed by lived experience of substance use, near death from toxic drugs and his recovery journey. Opinion sections in Canadian newspapers are supposed to offer differing opinions, not only those that are in line with the editorial board or of people with power and influence. This is clearly stated in the Ethics Guidelines of the Canadian Association of Journalists (CAJ), which we assume you and your publication espouses to. The removal of Mr. Felicella’s article and the suppression of differing opinions is in contravention of this guideline. It is akin to US-style politics that punishes those in opposition to the current administration. While Mr. Felicella is not Jimmy Kimble, we feel that this is an attempt at silencing him. We therefore demand that the opinion article by Mr. Felicella is republished immediately, in keeping with Canadian journalistic standards and CAJ guidelines. Many of the undersigned have offered countless hours to Postmedia journalists in interviews, with expert opinions or background briefs. While some of us will continue to do so for the time being, as we value the efforts of those frontline journalists, others may no longer make themselves available. We all pledge to no longer share Postmedia new stories on our social and alternative media platforms, which, combined, have considerable reach. We hope that you will stand by and show that you uphold the principle freedom of expression by your actions, and that you can stand firm against undue influence and legal challenges designed to silence critics.
