It is Jewish Heritage Month and throughout this month I am sharing stories of Canada's Jewish history. Today, it is the tragic story of MS St. Louis, when Canada refused to allow Jewish refugees from Europe entry. Of those on board, 30% later died in The Holocaust. 🧵1/10

🇨🇦 PM Carney has a way with words. #CanadaStrong 🍁

I’ve been working out. 😂 (for anyone who thinks this is how I see myself: Have you met me? LOL!)

Thank you, Canada. Together, we’ll build #CanadaStrong

Mark Carney has a unique opportunity to remake Canada in ways his predecessors would’ve struggled to find the political capital to do. I hope he takes advantage to build ambitious, nation-building projects to bring the country together again and get serious about reducing our dependence on the US.

What'd you do tonight? I went to a rally in Cloverdale to hear @mark-carney.bsky.social speak. It was a great event. Dan Mangan, singer/songwriter, said about Carney, that it is "comforting to have an adult in the room." #canpoli #canadastrong #canadavotes #VoteWisely #Never51

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

Thanks, Debra, for teaching me how to make your famous matzah ball soup today. To everyone in the Jewish community celebrating: Chag Pesach Sameach.

It’s a recalibration of economic control. Oligarchs don’t live paycheck to paycheck. They have the capital to buy market dips and recoup faster, acquiring more assets at fire sale prices along the way. When the dust finally settles, they will own more. The rest of us will own less. A lot less.

Our response is to fight, to protect, and to build.

We thank everyone for supporting the boycott of American products. But please buy Lays chips. There are 1200 union members with the Steelworkers at the plant in Cambridge and they need your support. Boycott American plants but support the jobs here in Canada. #elbowsup

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

BREAKING: Mike Flynn calls for martial law 🚨 “PRESIDENT TRUMP MAY EVENTUALLY HAVE TO DECLARE A NATIONAL EMERGENCY” is consistent with invocation of the Insurrection Act on 4/20—Elon Musk’s favorite day. This will be the Enabling Act of 2025. Mark my words.

In a few days, Mark Carney will be the next Prime Minister of Canada. Carney just gave up his entire portfolio to help grow Canada's economy. Pierre PoiLIEvre won't even get a security clearance. The choice in the next election is crystal clear #NeverPoilievre #noPoilierveforCanada #VOTELIBERAL

Only Mike Meyers could read the room like this Canadian BlueSky summarized:

As if Mike Myers wasn’t already a legend, him wearing a “CANADA IS NOT FOR SALE” t-shirt solidifies it. #SNL

It's gonna be a beautiful day to fuck up fascists tomorrow, Seattle. No matter where you are in greater Seattle, there's a #teslatakedown action near you. Find details and come join us: teslatakedown.com

Okay so I’m getting many messages from you in which you share you’re sorry but don’t know what to do.. so let me tell you, as a Ukrainian who took part in Maidan Revolution, there are things you could do, and lots . 1) organise - get together, block, neighbours, places you go to,..

This moment is going in the history books as the moment the US became irrelevant as a global power and ushered in the start of world war 3. Zelenskyy exposed the traitors.

Perhaps the shameful, orchestrated display at the Whitehouse was intended, among other nefarious intentions, to distract us from something else in the news today. I'm sure that'll all be explained away if anyone cares to take notice. #TrumpSucks #slavaukraini #wakeup people.com/donald-trump...
