@mark-carney.bsky.social Speaking of nation building, the changes owners are making to the CFL are obviously their preparation to be absorbed by the NFL. The CFL is small potatoes, but are a part of our identity

@mark-carney.bsky.social How can you talk about nation building while dismantling Canada Post? It is a national service, not a business. Are creative solutions too much to ask?

Elon Musk has gone completely out of his mind.

He's ranting and raving violently by the hour now.

I believe this is what is called stochastic terrorism. It is a direct attempt to incite mass violence. He even reposted a *hit list*.

As dangerous a man as America has ever seen.

Hey, @mark-carney.bsky.social , why isn’t our gov’t buying HBC’s archives and repatriating artefacts? A great reconciliation opportunity

I still think many Americans have no idea how bad this is going to get. I saw President Obama reposting a tepid, mealy-mouthed analysis by Ezra Klein—who's never seen a phenomenon he couldn't be 5 years late in incompetently circumscribing—and I felt like we don't have what it takes to survive this.

@soniafurstenau.bsky.social: It’s not just the NDP government — and private industry — we’re being asked to trust.

This bill would also empower cabinet to give authority to industry hired professionals and sidestep existing government processes and oversight.
