For example, the room of Canada’s top journalists heartily laughing as Poilievre mocks the concept of “Queers for Palestine” as “crazy.”

Yikes.

This would be a lot funnier if he showed any remorse for the journalist he disrespected in that apple-chewing moment (and the many others he’s attacked)

Without that, it just kinda feels like all the press and pundits cheering are saying “yeah that was fine, this is all a game”

Tim Hodgson has apologized for saying “it’s called Zoom” in reference to the too-short timeline the federal government gave Coastal First Nations to meet in-person:
November 29, 2025 at 12:28 AM
This path-to-a-pipeline MOU between Alberta and the federal government just keeps getting worse.

Luckily @karlamarx1917.bsky.social and @emilylowan.bsky.social joined me for a much-needed palate cleanser!

Here’s a taste:
November 28, 2025 at 11:04 PM
David Cochrane asks about the fact that it would’ve been impossible for the coastal First Nations to travel from their communities to meet the feds on the timeline the govt offered.

“It’s called Zoom,” Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson responds.

Jesus CHRIST.

Tonight, I watched the NDP leadership contestants face off in their first debate of the race!

It was mostly a competition to see who could agree with one another more, but with a twist: they had to speak some French.

Here’s how that went:
November 28, 2025 at 5:24 AM
Carney just signed a deal with Alberta that lays out conditions for a new oil pipeline.

In doing this, he managed to piss off one of his own cabinet ministers (who promptly resigned), coastal First Nations, the B.C. government, the Green Party and the Bloc Québécois.

But uh, here's what he got:
November 27, 2025 at 10:55 PM
Trudeau-era environment minister Steven Guilbeault has published a resignation letter detailing the reasons for his departure from Carney's cabinet.

He directly cites today's MOU:
November 27, 2025 at 9:55 PM
Carney to reporters: there won’t be a pipeline without a private investor.

Carney to the chamber of commerce: here are all the ways we’re bending over backwards to attract a private investor:
November 27, 2025 at 8:56 PM
A bunch of white nationalists donned their little costumes, stood on a London, Ontario overpass and demanded to be taken seriously.

Of course, this was Second Sons Canada, Diagolon's more militant arm.

I spoke with extremism experts about what they hope to accomplish with these temper tantrums:
November 26, 2025 at 10:27 PM

Two men who occupy prominent positions in Canada’s media landscape just travelled to Israel, where they received a briefing from the Israeli government.

Yeah. What are journalism ethics anyway?

Those men were TVO’s Steve Paikin and Global News’ Ben Mulroney:

Meanwhile, when I worked for Global, I got a call from my editor in chief telling me this tweet violated our JPP (which governs our social media rules).

🤦‍♀️
November 25, 2025 at 5:54 PM
Pardon me??

Ben Mulroney, host of Global News’ flagship political Sunday show, and prominent journalist Steve Paikin are both in Israel getting a briefing from the Israeli government???

What the absolute fuck, dude.

Several outlets are reporting Prime Minister Mark Carney and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith are going to sign a deal this week that includes a path to a northwest B.C. oil pipeline.

But why would Carney reward Smith with this gift just days after her nuclear attack on trans kids' lives?
November 24, 2025 at 10:24 PM
Meanwhile, in that same press conference, Carney moved away from characterizing Canada’s foreign policy as feminist and called gender quality a meme “aspect” of our foreign policy.

Carney’s words prompted this response from the former secretary general of Amnesty International Canada:
November 24, 2025 at 6:54 PM
Before I even clicked the video to see the context in which Carney responded “who cares” to a reporter asking when he last spoke with Trump, I knew it would a female reporter who asked the question.

Why? Because Carney is consistently more short with and rude to female reporters.

Sure enough:

Do you know how to speak the language of the creepy little far-right freaks on the internet?

Of course not. You have friends. So why would you?

But luckily for you, I do not have a life, so I'm fluent. Today, I’m your Rosetta Stone.

This is part two -- and we're doing a White House edition:

Alberta I am inside you!!!!!!!!!!

🚨NEWS: NDP Leadership Candidate Tony McQuail had a message for his donors on my podcast today:

Don't send him any more money, for now.

Send it to fellow candidate @votetanille.bsky.social until she raises enough to survive the next cut off.

Watch as Tony made news (and almost made us all cry):
November 20, 2025 at 8:31 PM
🚨 LIVE AT 12:00PMET TODAY 🚨

The NDP leadership candidates will soon face off in a first debate.

I’m thrilled to welcome two of those candidates on the show: @votetanille.bsky.social and Tony McQuail.

I’m calling them The Underdogs.

That’s why you should listen — underdogs can come out on top.

Alberta's government is engaged in something I can only describe as psychopathic politics.

What else do you call it when a government so set on pushing ahead with policies that WILL cause more trans youth to try to leave us?

When they'll trample on the charter to hurt these kids?

It's disturbing:
