"Joly is the second cabinet minister who wouldn’t explicitly back all of the Trudeau-era emissions reduction targets."

Always votes. Always ambition. Votes and ambition over our children and the planet.

"Values".

It is very hard to feel encouraged about the state of the world right now.

"Ensuring a living wage, even at the cost of short-term disruption, is crucial to ensuring that Canada’s economy works for Canadians. This provides dignity of work for those workers, of course, but it also helps all Canadians."
"The economy is a human construct that exists to serve human outcomes. If it isn’t delivering broad-based prosperity, livable wages, or dignity in work, then fuck that. “Industrial peace” should be burnt down, and something better should be built in its place."

Who is the economy for?
We should be wary of arguments that prioritize the stability of the economy over real outcomes for Canadians

Gardening has totally changed my outlook on rain. I used to be sad on a day like today, but now that we have all these plants, I'm happy they are getting a good drink (and I get a day off from pulling weeds).

It drives me nuts when people talk about themselves and never ask me anything about my life. I feel like that has been happening my whole life. This article nailed down my feelings. www.theguardian.com/wellness/202...
People who don’t ask me questions drive me crazy. Why are they like that?
‘Non-askers’ can come across as selfish – but there might be personal and societal reasons for their lack of curiosity

DOJ Designates Posting Photos Of Balding Elon Musk As Domestic Terrorism 
WASHINGTON—Warning that the charge carried a five-year mandatory minimum sentence, the U.S. Department of Justice declared Friday that the distribution of images featuring a balding Elon Musk constituted an act of domestic terrorism. “For the benefit of all Americans, anyone who posts or reposts photos from Mr. Musk’s PayPal days will be prosecuted for terrorism,” […]

The News Agents get it. So does Starmer, but he doesn't like having the choices he's made to stab Canada in the back stated so clearly.

(This also points out how untenable having the same head of state for two countries with differing geopolitical interests is becoming.)
New 'Peace in our time' just dropped.

Scary times!
This is the second example of women being jailed in horrible conditions by ICE in USA over work Visa “issues.” This one is Canadian and the other is German.

This makes travel to the US very risky at the moment. Detention without due process. Be careful!

Wow. Americans really don't understand Canada if they think we are googling "How many senators will we get?" And not "How do I make a pipe bomb?"

If there's one good thing about what's happening in Trumpland, I think it's making more Canadians see how PP has been following the MAGA playbook. Let's make sure this doesn't happen here. The other options may not be perfect, but this party is literally the last thing we need right now.
This is Pierre Poilievre's top advisor. His Conservative party is inundated with MAGA and Trump supporters yet he is telling Canadians he and his party are "not MAGA". Do the research before you vote. It matters.

When the Trump White House has lost the UK's Daily Star, you know they're tanking. Their last hope for a true ally is Russia, whose usefulness is limited.

When Trump was first elected in 2016, like many, I went into a state of despair & depression. Because I live in Canada, people around me told me I shouldn't worry so much because what was happening didn't really affect my life. It was awful watching everything happen and feeling totally helpless.
