@samsung I've turned to your #samsungcommunity only to discover your rules are so prohibative no one posts to it.

My post *is* related to "Samsung devices, One UI, or the Samsung ecosystem" but most certainly is an individual support question. I paid way more than I could reasonably afford to […]

Wow: Doug Ford makes a brilliant anti-Trump Tariff ad which disrupts Canada-USA trade negotiations

It doesn't help that Mr Trump doesn't seem to understand how to differentiate between Ontario and Canada... he's mad at PM Carney, not Premier Ford.

The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation & […]

The other day I told my sister that, bad as CBC can be, as much as it fails to fulfill its mandate, thanks to political interference & severe under-funding, Canada needs the CBC. In part, because once our National Broadcaster is broken up, sold off and trashed, nothing will ever replace it […]

Israel's war has always been a war on children. As long as there are Palestinian children there will be a Palestine.

October 7 was Netanyahu's excuse to pull out all the stops and go full speed ahead with its genocide.

Nothing justifies the deliberate killing of […]

Wow.

Uganda's Judge Julia Sebutinde on the International Court of Justice has consistently voted against every ruling the ICJ has adopted in South Africa's case against Israel under the Genocide Convention. (Including motions the Israeli judge voted for.)

As I'm […]

Dear American Friends:

CBC (Canada's public TV) is problematic, but despite various Conservative threats to eradicate it, I will do anything I can to prevent it, because it is extremely important for any free nation to have non-commercial media with which its peoples can communicate.

Capital demands that:
1. The government must strip away sensible rules which prevent businesses from attacking the public good.
2. The government must constrain *itself* with insanely restrictive pledges, such as Rachel Reeves's fiscal rules.
3. Protesters challenging capital must be locked up.

'Pedro Sánchez has been the most vocal in calling for the "immediate" suspension of the trade agreement because of "genocide" and added: "It makes no sense that we have eighteen packages of sanctions on Russia and Europe is not even capable of suspending a partnership agreement with Israel".' […]

Election Night in Canada

I am posting this final "Preliminary Election Result" table posted on the Elections Canada website on Election Night (April 28th, 2025) because they always remove the easily understandable table at some point after the election. The numbers will change/have changed as […]

Sad fact: 22 daily suicides in […]
