What’s happening in the US is the result of decades of declining education and civic literacy. When critical thinking erodes, people become easy targets for lies and strongman promises. That’s how democracies slide into fascism—through apathy not overnight.

This is what empathy looks like. bsky.app/profile/demo...

Holy crap!

Polievre still 1700 votes behind in his riding of Carlton. I wish we could stop counting now!

Today, we remember the workers who died, were injured or became ill as a result of their job.  Everyone has a right to come home at the end of the day. We will continue to work toward that goal in partnership with workers, the labour movement and employers.

Poilievre would require a referendum for every federal tax increase??? First, a referendum would be incredibly expensive (electoral reform would have cost $300 million, for example) Second, good luck ever raising taxes again (including on the rich!)

If you are worried about disinformation and media manipulation in this election give a pass to @ctvnews-rss.bsky.social They caved to pressure from Pierre Poiievre's online posse in their continual harassment of @rachelgilmore.bsky.social. She is a truth teller. pressprogress.ca/ctv-cancelle...

I’m old enough to remember people disappearing in Guatemala decades ago. This is what’s happening in the US right now. People are being deprived of their civil rights. Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty? www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

More proof that conservatives spread misinformation and outright lie.

If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck…..

Trump announced that there will be no Tariffs in April, just when we are having an election here and Danielle Smith had a telephone conversation telling him PP aligns with Maga.This is a pause to help Polievre win the election. I don’t trust him for even a nanosecond second.

Pierre Poilievre on Canada: "It's not the Americans fault. It is our fault. We're stupid." No Pierre. Canadians aren't stupid. We see you. #elbowsup

Trump is scrambling to give cover to Pierre Poilievre by pretending that the Conservatives are not MAGA. Pierre you can run but you can't hide from your MAGA MAPLE baggage. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYUg...

This man is totally out of touch

What could possibly go wrong?

With the on and off trade war with the US, we are here.

I just listened to Mark Carney’s acceptance speech. My favourite takeaway was directed at Poilievre “a person who worships at the altar of Donald Trump will kneel before him, not stand up to him”

“The Trump tariff will make people who own domestic manufacturing companies rich beyond their greediest dreams, aggressively redistributing wealth and income upward in the United States.” newrepublic.com/article/1861...

A great new tune to help unite us all. “Stand together cuz we are strong”

We have never been broken

Trump pardoned drug traffickers, Republican elected officials, business cronies, lawyers, friends, and campaign officials. He has since promised to pardon the January 6th terrorists and wants to use the office of president to pardon himself. Biden did the right thing by pardoning his son.

Anybody else happy that Biden gave his son a full pardon?

Manitoba landfill search identifies most likely location of remains of murdered First Nations women: Deep section of Prairie Green landfill pinpointed as probable location of remains of Marcedes Myran and Morgan Harris will begin to be dug into this week, Premier Wab Kinew says

We just have to convince PP and his minions

🧨🧨 Mexico's response to Trump's threats of tariff wars: Mexico Dares Trump to Try and See Havoc of Starting Tariff War newrepublic.com/post/188829/...

This is nothing short of a full-out attack on Canadian workers. The Prime Minister is going to have to get his head out of the sand. Stand up and fight like hell. Canadian jobs are on the line.

This immediately made me think of PP and his minions. “The self-righteous scream judgments against others to hide the noise of skeletons dancing in their own closets.” — John Mark Green

They just aren’t happy about anything the liberals do, even when it’s their own idea.

I don’t get it. Trudeau took his teen daughter to a Taylor Swift concert and ensured she had a great time by dancing with her and trading bracelets. Basically just being an awesome parent. The right have lost their little pea sized minds over this. I can’t imagine Polievre doing this in any universe

Another example of Police targeting indigenous people.

Finally! Now let’s find Tamara Lich guilty as well.

We need more people like Jeff in every province.

Canada, Finland, New Zealand, Sweden and Norway have all been named among the countries with the most freedom.

I need a new author to read. Any suggestions? I will read almost anything, but prefer mysteries.

Never forget: READING FOR PLEASURE has the biggest positive impact of any factor on children's life chances. So never stop sharing books with kids. Never stop reading to them, and helping them to read. Never stop changing lives. #literacy #kidlit #books

The Free Trade deal expires in June. He’ll be coming for our water. Count on it.

Invalid handle fixed (I hope) and a beach picture because I need it today.

He is going to be missed by all of us who had the pleasure to meet him. He led us through the pandemic and showed great compassion for all citizens of BC. I’m happy he lived to see the NDP beat the BC conservatives. Rest in Peace John.

These guys just can’t help themselves. What an idiot.
