April 28th is the day we remember workers injured and killed on the job. They don't teach us the monumental stories of resistance and organizing to make workplaces safer.
This is my reflection on the origins of April 28th and the miners of the north who made history.

I'm waiting for the Canadian journalist who investigates & reports on Moses Znaimer's years of alleged sexual harassment of women.

Who will have the balls to write about that??

When Pierre Poilievre joined the Anti Vax Convoy in Ottawa and encouraged people not to get vaccines, Ottawa was taken hostage. Now 1000 children have Measles in Ontario and parents don't want their children to get any vaccine. Vote against Pierre Ottawa, Beat him at his base!

Donald seems to think a trade war only goes one way.
Canada is the US main trading partner with over $900 billion going back and forth.
F--k around and find out what happens when retaliatory tariffs hit.
It is going to grind the gears of an already struggling economy.
Canada won't break.
Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Donald, you made a lot of promises about the four greatest years. If you’re going to do that, you need to steer the economy in a smart way. If you think throwing tariffs left, right, and center is the way to do it—I’d suggest you get some advice on what a tariff is

On a picket line with Billy Bragg in 2009.
He sang Power in a Union and then told me to sing.
My choice:
"Is there aught we hold in common with the greedy parasite,
Who would lash us into serfdom
and would crush us with his might.
Is there anything left for us but to organize and fight?"

My three biggest political concerns for Canada in 2025.
1. A Pierre Poilievre majority government.
2. The parade of quisling Canadian "leaders" trying to cut side deals to sell out our nation.
3. The threats of Donald Trump.
Nobody from the outside can beat us if we stand for Canadian values.

I come from a mining town.
I have always been fascinated by the people, the history, and the unique spirit.
In the deepest part of the mine you encounter incredible characters.
They are a tight knit bunch.
Like this old school miner who was teaching a young woman how to take on the work.

As Trump threatens Canada Poilievre leans into the MAGA playbook of singing the tired old hits of the extremist right.
This is a good analysis of how sucking up to MAGA is exposing Poilievre and his Conservative MPs for who they really are.

Canada has something called democracy.
It means the leader is accountable to Parliament and can be replaced
I bet Americans wish they had that now.

Dear Donald,
Thanks for including us in your deranged Christmas message.
Being Canadian means free health care and limiting access to assault weapons.
In your 51st state our kids would get shot at in school and CEOs would be shot for denying health care.
So no.
Now piss off.
