Never forget this: The GOP’s nonsensical culture war is meant to distract you from corporate corruption, worker oppression, and staggering wealth inequality.

legitimately love this guy.
It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

It is extremely difficult for Canada to defend itself from malign influence operations & information warfare, until it starts taking seriously - with legislation with teeth - the harm caused by dark money funded malicious disinfo pedlars, like #RebelNews.

This is really serious and we ignore it at our peril. Those who are complaining about 🇨🇦’s increase in defence spending, are either naive, or acting like de facto 5th columnists. Drone technology in the arctic, is one area that needs increased R&D, like, yesterday.

Petulant piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre, KuKluxKonvoy insurrection supporter, shows again his ignorance of how our Westminster democracy works:
1. We don’t vote for ‘majority/minority governments. We elect MPs riding by riding.
2. Floor-crossing is part of the system: even Churchill did it. Twice.

Mega heat pumps are coming. It’s great to see that so many projects are now underway around the world.

There’s a real competition on who builds the biggest heat pump.

Technology has come a long way and keeps getting better.

They are the wealthiest human beings ever. More wealth than the pharaohs of Egypt, British monarchs and the Emperors of China combined

But they are destroying democracy in America because they don't want to pay taxes.

Nothing more than perceived wealth that doesn’t exist for the purposes of taxes, but magically does for the purposes of leverage. Meanwhile, the rest of us pay real taxes on low wages and can’t leverage shit. The game is rigged. Tax the rich.

Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.

What's required is investment in working people — and better wages.

When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.

Remember this.
