Sometimes the hardest thing is getting started and removing the fears we place between ourselves and our goals. #OneGoodThingToday

Highly recommend checking out Hey.Cafe. Creator Anthony Lee is an awesome Canadian, doing good. A novel idea: stop the cycle of supporting tech giants. Instead support smaller platforms that demonstrate an interest in social good & help build the culture on that platform. #SocialMedia #StoryToGo

Impressed with how Tod articulated our Canadian values in response to an incredibly sad Canadian tragedy. #CanadaSky #Canadian

As a #Brightdrop owner and enthusiast, this bit of news from Ingersoll's CAMI plant seems hopeful. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRt4... #EV #EVvan

Please don’t make jokes about Trump and Epstein. The survivors are still waiting for justice. They were children who experienced unspeakable horrors and abuse. They’ve been ignored, gaslit, threatened and re-traumatized. It’s not a joke and every predator must be punished.

In my travels with #Uthando in 2024, I tagged along as a French Canadian crew filming Partir Autrement entre Amis. I loved the stories they were exploring on #EcoFriendly & #ResponsibleTourism. The episode just dropped & shows the work that Uthando's doing beautifully: www.tv5unis.ca/videos/parti...

Secretary Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I’m calling on her to resign. Gregory Bovino must also be fired. No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.

Utterly sickening. ICE under the US regime kidnapped a 5-year-old on their way home from school. I giant masked man accosting a small child. Think of the trauma of that. CBC article on: www.cbc.ca/news/world/i... #ElbowsUp #Minnesota #StopFascism #BootsOnTheICE

As I am teaching a course at present on #storytelling, I decided to use Prime Minister Mark Carney's World Economic Forum speech as an example to my students on how a simple story, told cleverly with heart, can change the world. Have a read. #StoryToGo #ElbowsUp #StopFascism

In #Canadian PM Carney's #WorldEconomicForum speech, he shared a story from Václav Havel on how it just takes 1 shopkeeper removing the sign of compliance towards what we know is false (but share to get along) to begin to crack the illusion. #Canada has removed that sign. Will you? #ElbowsUp

Updating the #SocialMedia #Storytelling Examples for students to analyse in my course this term. Looking for examples that are Canadian, from countries outside the US, or are part of the US Resistance. Would love an example from Greenland. A mix of biz, creative & social good projects. Suggestions?

Time for Canadians to run from Scotiabank. That dimwit is literally calling for the emaciation of his own bank, including all Canadian banks.

Hey, Canadians who need part-time work: The census is back!

If there ever was any doubt...

“That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.” Does this look like a “domestic terrorist”? @KristiNoem needs to resign. @JDVance owes her son an apology. Shame on everyone.

Seems my sharing the truth about Trump’s America is angering the MAGA trolls on Threads. I will take that as a badge of pride. #ElbowsUp #StopFascism

I keep going back to this. This is a taunt. They're taunting us. There is no other possible interpretation of what they're doing. But media simply ignores this deranged behavior, because if they talk about it, one must conclude that DHS is a rogue agency, of villainous paramilitary thugs.

There is absolutely no theory or philosophy of US government where it is appropriate for the Department of Homeland Security to taunt, mock, and terrorize the citizenry of the Homeland. It's pure evil - an authoritarian campaign of vindictive terror.

I am in Canada. We saw the video footage. We saw the murder. We know the truth. Renee Nicole Good was murdered. #TrumpsAmerica #ReneeNicoleGood #StopFascism

ICE and Trump's Regime are completely unhinged. Since yesterday's murder of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent, ICE agents went on to assault school kids, prompting the closure of Minneapolis schools, & now Border Patrol has shot 2 people in Portland, Oregon . #TrumpsAmerica #ElbowsUp #StopFascism

For those needing some #hope after all appalling acts of terror by the Trump regime, check out this video from @theplanetd.bsky.social. It shares how the allies are coming together this week. Together we are strong & that together is bigger than those mentioned here. #ElbowsUp #StopFascism

Reminded the reason "our" newspapers seem to be playing down the US Invasion, is as 2/3 of Canadian Newspaper Conglomerate Postmedia is owned by a US Republican. 1 right wing Trumpist owns 66% of Postmedia with 37% of Canadian English newspapers. Read: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postmed... #ElbowsUp

To add to the list of Trumpist org to #boycott, as its important to use my conscience in deciding how I spend my #travel dollars, I'll be boycotting Hilton, as they let a Minnesota hotel go for refusing to house ICE agents. Thanks to Toby Morton for this #ElbowsUp: www.hiltonice.com #StopFascism

It's been a HELL of a week from the Trump Regime & right wing extremists. It's happening here in #Canada too with Bloomberg reporting that Scotiabank CEO Scott Thomson sees ‘Trump doctrine’ as positive for growth, as he shared at Canadian Bank CEO Conference. Time to boycott Scotiabank. #ElbowsUp

Take this for what it is. A declaration that the Trump regime intends to threaten other borders and has no regard for international laws. #StopFascism

Love this! In my research, I discovered Made By Dyslexia's signatures: I’m #MadeByDyslexia – expect creative thinking & creative spelling. I’m #MadeByDyslexia – expect big thinking & small typos. I’m #MadeByDyslexia – expect curious ideas & curious spelling. Now which one do I choose.

Working on some disability education materials, and came across this quote from Journalist @dinoray.bsky.social on #disability and #accessibility which really resonates - "If one of us wins, we all win."

The attack on Venezuela by the US was not an act of peacekeeping, it was an act of war. Why? To take control of Venezuelian oil for the benefit of the US, just like how they wish to take control of Canada & Greenland for our resources. Here is @todmaffin.com's breakdown on ... #TrumpsAmerica

Enjoying the best kind of #NewYearsEve. Quiet dinner with mom, moonlit walk thru freshly fallen snow with my best fellow, no other sole in sight, & now curled up with an audiobook & my tortie terror. Wishing everyone a wonderful New Year’s Eve, & a #HappyNewYear filled with peace, love & hope.

I am a bit of a #TraitorsCanada addict, but with my damaged nervous system, I am not sure applying would be the best idea. I'd love to see someone I know apply though, so I can cheer them on. www.thetraitorscanadacasting.ca

As Trump's regime is further exposed for its human rights violations, it's time to ask yourself which side of history you are on? Are you supporting and enabling the evils of the Trump regime, or are you standing against fascism?

For anybody that wishes a good quality, downloadable copy of the pulled 60 Minutes segment on CECOT, here it is on the Internet archive. #StandUp4HumanRights #StandAgainstFascism

Here's an active copy of the pulled 60 minutes CECOT segment: www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-... Not an easy watch, but an important one in documenting the human rights violations of the Trump regime. Watch it now, as it keeps getting pulled from wherever it is posted.

Make a #Canadian happy this holiday by supporting Canadian businesses. #MadeInCanada

Starting to research options for Van Conversion Companies in Southern BC or Southern Ontario to contract to help me build Eddie the EV BrightDrop into a green Media Studio / Camper / Classroom on Wheel. Let me know if you have recommendations. #VanConversion #BrightDrop #CamperVanConversion

Reflections on the #GM announcement of halt in #BrightDrop production. BrightDrop represents the coolest #EV Cargo Van technology in North America, but for sales @generalmotors.bsky.social needs to market it & share the stories of how people are innovating with it. #EV #ElectricVehicle #ElectricVan

The beginnings of my future series on 'How to Burn Your Supper Over the Campfire (and have it still be edible)'. Not to toot my own horn or anything, but this is a skill that I am exceptionally good at. youtu.be/z0VyvEnM3L4 #Camping #CampCooking #CampLife

The best kind of Saturday night! A #sunset #paddle with my #cat in the beautifully tranquil setting that is #Pukaskwa National Park! www.youtube.com/watch?v=iLc0... #LifeIsGood! So glad my wee #AdventureCat chose me! #ParksCanada #DiscoverOntario #ExploreCanada #CatSky

#HappyThanksgiving, Everyone! After the difficult year we’ve had, I cannot express enough, just how thankful I am for these three loves. We make each other stronger and saner. #Thanksgiving #thankful

Mulling this morning on how destructive it is in our perceptions when we use words referencing disabilities, ethnicity, skin colour and spiritual believes as insults. Added to that society now uses some women's names as insults. None of that is okay. We need to start thinking more about our words.

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

I love ❤️ listening to my neighbours karaoking, up now is Islands in the Stream! Dolly would be blessed to be serenaded by.

Shanah Tovah! At the instructions of a most beloved friend tonight, I enjoyed apples and honey, while contemplating personal growth goals for the #NewYear. Was a bit of the transition that my soul has been craving. #ShanahTovah #RoshHashana #RoshHashanah

My kind of #LabourDay! Out #paddling with a kid I love, on a water body that I spent my teens helping to restore. Rather grand to see #CootesParadise in its #NaturalBeauty today. Even if my arms are a little sore this evening from paddling free of the weeds. #HamOnt #DiscoverON #ExploreCanada

This is what the White House’s official Instagram posted last night, and my response to it, as they’ve been deleting educated replies to it, as afterall this is Trump’s administration announcing war on education, history and the truth. #TrumpsAmerica

I have a sneaking suspicion that Battle River—Crowfoot is about to spend the next 4-years discovering how little Poilievre actually cares about them. Sad when you had someone like @bonniecritchley.bsky.social who actually cares about her neighbours. #cdnpoli

Good on her 🔥

As people post celebrating the life of someone who supported the cruelty that Trump’s administration is spreading, take a moment to think about the message that sends to those that have had loved ones killed, imprisoned & threatened by that regime. Are you triggering & further demoralising victims?

An apt cover on New York Magazine, Canadians are furious at the current US administration and all those who support it. nymag.com/intelligence... It's a dumpster fire causing unimaginable destruction, that needs cleaning up.
