Oh my god. Oh my fucking god.

Now is the time. Transit users in Metro Vancouver need a low-income transit pass before a five per cent fare hike takes effect in July. 🚏🚍 Advocates Aman Chandi and Sacia Burton write. #vanpoli

A bit of a read, but worth it.

This is my favorite Rudy Giuliani moment, the time he did a press conference and the weight of his sin began to melt him live on camera like a cheap candle

Every splashy New York Times profile of a right wing influencer.

We seriously should treat sports betting ads like cigarette ads: ban them.

Happy May Day. They can’t kill us all.

Solidarity Forever

let's celebrate real journalists who, unlike members of the WHCA, face real danger doing their jobs journalists like Bruce Willingham of McCurtain County, OK who faced death threats from the local sheriff for reporting on corruption & resulted in a conspiracy to have a hitman assassinate him

"Low-income households will get [free] plug-in solar panels to cut their energy bills, the Government has announced." This is how you do a just transition. inews.co.uk/news/politic...

It’s not often I get to report good news, so we’re going to take some time to do that today — because @theonion.com officially has a deal to take over Alex Jones’ InfoWars. Their plan? To turn it into a parody of itself. It’s going to be so good:

How much did the police make?

I hate everything. So I ordered tacos. I still hate everything but now I have tacos.

That Celebrini kid's pretty damn good, I wonder where he's from...

Heat pumps are the most efficient heating technology ever invented. They harvest and compress pre existing heat in the air, ground or water and transport it where it is needed. That energy is all around us. And it does not have to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.

I don't think it's ethical to build a majority government through floor crossings and I think democracy works better when we have minority governments with opposition MPs working together to best reflect the interests of Canadians who voted them in and scrutinizing legislation

Should be part of his next test.

Epic fail.

AI boosters want us to love AI but most of them don’t want any guardrails, and will fight against every guardrail in every jurisdiction. AI without significant, thorough and internationally agreed-upon guardrails are a very dangerous idea. No significant guardrails, no AI, should be the position.

LOL, trying to stay offline and do my work, and friends are sending me "LOOK AT THIS NEW PIC!" texts .... This one is worth it. First PoC and first woman to go around another world. Don't stop talking about this point. It's important. #ArtemisII

man morale at the AP is real bad huh

You do not - in fact - have to hand it to Alex Jones for being cranky with the US president. He demonized the families of Sandy Hook victims for years and is awful.

There are many things I’m very proud of as a Canadian. MANY things. But every time I watch another media story about another ambitious push in renewable energy from China, I’m embarrassed that Canada isn’t aggressively working to quickly become a true global powerhouse in renewable energy.

Interestingly enough this is considered a Highly Politicized Hot Take in the states. I thought woke was dead?!

He kept this one off Bluesky because he didn't want the pushback of people rightfully pointing out she's an anti-vaxxer who wants to torture LGBTQ+ children with conversion therapy

There's something just so brilliant about coal mines being directly replaced with solar farms www.pv-magazine.com/2026/04/07/g...

Surely this is what the woman I saw on the SkyTrain two months ago wearing the "Make Iran Great Again" hat was referring to!

I thought I was sick of the thought of space travel. Turned out I was really sick of billionnaire vanity projects. What NASA's doing is incredible and has got me excited about space exploration again.

Don't taco Tuesday this shit. Millions of people spent the day wondering if they would get vaporized, and no one in our government stood up to him. Nothing cutesy about it.

Just because a President announces he’s agreed to a two week ceasefire moments before he threatened to commit war crimes, does not mean he is suddenly fit to serve. #25thAmendment

OH. MY. GOD. THIS IS THE EARTHSET PHOTO FROM ARTEMIS II. IM SPEECHLESS.

The Iran war has shown how risky reliance on oil is. As the world shifts off fossil fuels, the challenge is to build Canadian energy self-reliance around affordable domestic renewables, writes Gord Laxer.

I think it's bad for the President to threaten to annihilate an entire culture and i do not think you are being alarmist if you take his threats seriously and literally.

Since there's (hopefully, presumably) no mass murder tonight, can we talk again about the insanity of the World Cup coming to the United States under these circumstances?

OH. MY. GOD. THIS IS THE MILKY WAY SHOT BY THE ARTEMIS II CREW. LOOK AT ALL THOSE STARS!!!!

The famous Andor line is that "tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle." Here is a perfect example of that through malicious compliance: Idaho forced the city of Boise to remove its Pride flags. So the city painted rainbows everywhere else.

Never thought the day would come when I would agree with Iranian state TV. Iranian state TV claimed Trump had accepted Iran's terms for ending the war, describing it as a "humiliating retreat" by the U.S. president.

🇺🇸🇮🇷🇵🇰 𝗖𝗘𝗔𝗦𝗘𝗙𝗜𝗥𝗘 | 𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗠𝗣 𝗣𝗢𝗦𝗧𝗦 Trump has posted a two-week ceasefire announcement on Truth Social, conditional on Iran's complete, immediate, and safe opening of the Strait of Hormuz. 1/3

The thing about there needing to be a path of redemption for people who have been “canceled” is: there already is a path to redemption and it’s called “redeeming yourself.” The path is open! No one is blocking that! You just have to do it!

I wonder if Canada has considered this too.

Hey, this subliminal messaging is making me want to fly Air Canada down to the States! Seems like fun, and really, what's the worst that could happen?

One day, "It" will happen, by which I mean sudden and unexpected news that you want to celebrate. In such cases, you will want the right outfit. 🧵

when we're all unable to connect to use the internet, send emails, pay our bills, use our toasters, and god knows what else if AWS goes down, i want you to know now that i blame our lack of antitrust laws far more than i'll blame a foreign missile

The original transposition results in 48 UCP seats and 41 NDP seats The UCP minority's boundary suggestion would be 57 UCP and 32 NDP

Solidarity with Cuba. What the US is doing is inhumane, and Canada must not tolerate it.

All but three (!) of the 1,651 refugees admitted into the United States in the three most recent months we have data are white South Africans. For comparison, in 2024, the U.S. admitted 100,060 refugees. It's an explicit white supremacist project. www.rpc.state.gov/documents/Re...

Hundreds of Indigenous leaders, legal groups, and labour unions have told Eby that weakening DRIPA will create more uncertainty and distrust. Instead, he’s barreling forward with this “suspension” — yet another panicked snap-decision that will only create more instability.
