That’s not including those who had their visas revoked & were deported.

Pro-oil spokesperson on CBC says we need more oil pipelines because of the extra energy demands from AI. So Canada is going all-in on destroying the planet. It's a choice. Canada has chosen extinction. The Carney government is officially dead to me.

The reason? RFK Jr. is Health Secretary.

I really hate it when scientists keep saying that “we need to rebuild trust in science,” because it implies that scientists are to blame for the mistrust rather than the millions of dollars of dark money that have funded political attacks on science in order to advance a far right agenda.

Just cuz I suspect it's gonna be relevant: "underage women" is a contradiction in terms. There are adults and there are minors, who are children. Ditto "nonconsensual sex." That's rape. The only reason to play semantic games is because you benefit from obscuring the simplicity of these terms.
