I’ve loved Ferron’s music since I first came out, went to one of her writing workshops. I’ve seen her perform so many times - last time in March 2020. I heard this song today and now I think she is a poet, musician and a prophet. We are stronger together youtu.be/R5Pm6LcG7V8?...

This. So much this.
Trump's attack on Canada is not about fentanyl or the border. It is an attack on our nationhood.
But here's the thing: Trump is America's biggest disadvantage because he divides.
But he is unifying our nation like never before.

We need to shut down any attempt by Elon Musk to monkey-wrench our election. We must defend Canada's democratic integrity.
Please write to Elections Canada calling on them to shut down interference by Musk's interference in the X algorithm.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: If Elon Musk is unwilling to respect Canada’s electoral laws, will Elections Canada have the tools to take him on—or shut him down—if necessary? We cannot allow men like Elon Musk, the broligarchy of the United States, to interfere in our country.

“A 2022 report by the CBC revealed that Pierre Poilievre had hired the team behind Canada Proud to ‘boost his messages online’ — an organization that specializes in anti-Trudeau rage-bait and whose sole mission is to defeat Justin Trudeau. Poilievre and the CPC’s chief strategy is distortion.”

My Oma told me a story about WW2 - in occupied Holland a local Catholic priest spoke out in his parish church against the atrocities that were taking place - arrests, roundups, transports to concentration camps. Two weeks after his public statement he disappeared. How is this different?
Right wing authoritarians want to deport a bishop for quoting Jesus.

And if you think that's bad, you should see what the right wing authoritarians did to Jesus.

If CBC is going to put O’Leary on Power & Politics & pretend he’s a politician with relevance, they should be required to point out for transparency & duty to disclose that he’s never held elected office, never been a political staffer & whether he ever paid off his leadership bid debts.

A single US pro MAGA / pro Brexit / pro Reform / pro Musk / pro Russia bot account is the origin of the #TrudeauMustGo hashtag.

It was amplified by disinformation networks and MAGA movement collaborators. #cdnpoli
