The chaos isn’t accidental—it’s meant to exhaust and divide us. But we’re stronger than that. Stay informed, stay engaged, and don’t let the noise drown out what really matters. Change happens when we refuse to look away.

Mahmoud Khalil should be at home with his pregnant wife.
Instead, he's been illegally abducted & had his constitutional right to free speech & due process stripped.
We're demanding his immediate release and we cannot allow this abuse of power to go unchecked. #FreeMahmoudKhalil

The resistance is happening. It's all around us.
Let us celebrate and share the big acts because it helps us to understand that small gestures also matter.
There are only two sides now.
Those who are complicit in evil and those who resist.

So I'm standing in the grocery store parking lot and it's freaking cold.
A very classy old woman sees me and walks the entire distance across the lot.
"You give that man shit," she says.
Then walks away.
That's Canada.
The criminal might buy off porn stars.
He will never force Canada to bend.

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.
