My god. “Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

🍞🥛 While kids go hungry, Conservatives mocked a National School Food Program as “bureaucracy.” They didn’t just vote against it — they laughed. This shows what’s at stake: other parties pledge more for schools, Ford’s PCs look backward. 📌 www.instagram.com/reel/DPCa6ks...

'It is the hour of freedom or death’ Gustavo Petro, the President of Colombia

Hahaha "What could he be trying to say?!"

gives a new meaning to mandatory staff retreat

Alberta allies please be loud! Our kids need you more than ever. Tell your MLA you will not stand for the notwithstanding clause. #abpoli #cdnpoli

The UCP and their Take Back Alberta bullshit is going to get people killed. They know this, and they don't care. #abpoli

"Surely someone else will say something before it’s too late."

“Maybe I met him on some boys’ trip? I feel like I’ve seen his penis before. Have we ever gone swimming at the same time? You have a mole right here under your rib cage, right?” said Trump

From Milton Mayer's "They Thought They Were Free" I first read it in November and I'm rereading it now. It crushing feeling the exact same things as this academic did. It's the same process.

Kash Patel has the look of a guy who just Googled “how to FBI” five minutes before the press conference.

Even by MAGA standards, this is horrifying.

As usual, the UCP refuses to tolerate the idea of ordinary Albertans getting any sort of benefit. They stripped away the $200 from AISH recipients, and now they're taking away affordable dental care. #abpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Alberta has the second highest unemployment rate of all of the provinces in Canada. Good thing the UCP is laser focused on… Book bans and trans kids? #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Everyday. Every hour. Not just at Calgary Pride. ✊🏾🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

CORRECTION. The UCP has not banned just over 100 books from Edmonton Schools. If this list is accurate, they have banned over 200. Here is the list we have been provided. 1/2 #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

“What we are seeing in Alberta is as extreme as we’ve seen in the southern United States and other centers of book banning” www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

Anyone who remembers Tienanmen remembers how the normal tank crew wouldn't drive over a guy waving bags, so the Party brought in special tank crews that gladly drove tanks over unarmed sleeping students. I think we all expect Hegseth to choose based on a similar lack of basic humanity.

May this portion of the dissent by Ketanji Brown Jackson haunt John Roberts forever and be the final word on his tenure as Chief Justice.

The latest inflation data for car & home insurance, by province. Alberta absolutely in a league of its own here.

“Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro, Pierre Poilievre — none of these men became household names on merit, they simply cried the loudest. The entire conservative movement is composed of insufferable cry babies aided and abetted by spineless corporate media.” @taylornoakes.com

Canada: “We are prepared to issue as many empty statements as necessary to stop this genocide”

Conservative trolls are finding new ways to flood social media with disinformation “No doubt these trolls are following the lead of CPC leader Pierre Poilievre, who’s been identified as one of the biggest spreaders of disinformation in Canadian politics.” An editorial by @mtltoula.bsky.social.

Meanwhile, in Canada 💃 🕺 🌈

The Bow pathway just North of 194th is now part of the duck ponds. #yycbike

When you hand a thriving economy over to a vengeful criminal moron, and Congress refuses to do its job, and the rule of law is dismantled, it doesn't take long for the economy to begin to collapse.

$77B. That’s what 6 years of UCP rule has cost Alberta — from Kenney’s Keystone gamble to Smith’s $33B clean energy freeze. These aren’t accidents. They’re ideological choices. And Poilievre wants to bring the same fiscal vandalism to Ottawa. That’s why CBC matters. It exposes the receipts.

That’s how much they hate us. They’re burning birth control.

"Two of the pictures had topless girls sitting in Trump’s lap, and one where Trump has a stain on the front of his pants and the topless girls are pointing at it and laughing. They defined each other. Epstein is the best window through which to understand Trump " www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/07...

I do not care that you are not “surprised.” Please. You have no idea how tiresome it is when you post that something horrible, fascist, authoritarian is “not surprising.” Nothing is “surprising” anymore. But a lot of it is horrible and frightening. Let’s deal with it together.

Thank you to @monachalabi.bsky.social for this powerful graphic, which starkly pictures the severity of the Israeli government’s policy of mass death through forced starvation.

This is what the groomer libel by the far right was made for. They're going to use it to label trans people as "sexually dangerous persons" with "mental illness" and have them civilly committed.

Oil & gas companies in CAD posted $150B in profits over the past 5 years (2021-2024 inclusive). That's profits, not revenue. In 2024 alone, companies paid out more than $13B in shareholder buybacks & dividends. We don't need austerity budgets when we can make polluters pay. #ABLeg #ABPoli #CDNPoli

What a headline www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Very well said !! Its so blatantly obvious Smith is using tax dollars to campaign and promote separatism. She is working up her base. If I was studying propaganda at University this would be a required part of the course. Its was 100% PROPAGANDA. #Ableg #Abpoli #DanielleSmith #UCPCorruption

Alberta: Did you know that… Even as Smith blames immigrants for overcrowded schools, overwhelmed HC, and threats to withhold services to immigrants? This is the threatening letter she sent the feds DEMANDING DOUBLE AB allotment of immigrants.

Yet another whistleblower, this time from the Toronto Star, is speaking out about their newsroom’s censorship of stories about Palestine. What they said rings true. Because part of what they described also happened to me. It's a story I haven't shared publicly until now:

Happy Bastille Day! A national holiday that celebrates an armed crowd storming a prison that held people jailed by an autocratic leader with no due process, kicking off a revolution that did not end well for wealthy elites but did lay the groundwork for western liberal democracy

Amazon workers in Delta have won the battle to unionize after the BC Labour Relations Board found the company committed “serious” offences to try and block an organizing drive. #bclab

The bottom line: “According to provincial data, in May 2025, 41.8 per cent of patients were waiting longer than recommended for surgery compared to 36.6 per cent during May 2024.”
