Shout out to the late transitioners. Your path shows that self-discovery is a lifelong adventure. Thank you for sharing your light and showing us that joy is always possible.

Donald Trump will leave office someday, but I will never trust United States ever again. If friendship is contingent on the political party in power, then they are no ally at all.

The Nobel Prize museum in Oslo subtweeting the fuck out of Trump today.

Keep American style politics away from Canada Petition e6679 addresses MPs who spread misinformation. It will be read in Parliament on January 27, 2026. Email your MP asking them to support e6679. Protect Canadian sovereignty. This can make it easy to do: politicalhonesty.ca/MP-lookup-wi...

Very highly recommend this book by @emilystjams.bsky.social One of those books that will make you cry and laugh at the same time, and slowly read the last few chapters so that it won’t end. bookshop.org/p/books/wood...

I’m really happy to say that #portmoody council voted last night to get off X. Governments should not be participating in a platform that makes and distributes CSAM and NCII. thetyee.ca/Opinion/2026...

To anybody still using X: sexual abuse content is the final straw, it’s time to leave www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... I've stayed on X (just posting) because of the (probably naive) belief important to ensure accurate content everywhere. But X just an abusive BS machine. Stepping away.

My statement on X.

This is not about two student athletes (one, a little girl who just wants to run cross-country at her middle school). This is about the government's quest to identify groups of Americans not worthy of equal protections under the law. We should all object to that. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Congratulations to the Governmet of Nova Scotia on its new 2SLGBTQIA+ Action Plan. This is an important step forward in helping to build safer and more equitable and inclusive schools, communities, and health care systems. Well done, Nova Scotia! www.oeaengagement.ca/41089/widget...

82 years young. 🥰

It’s hard to be what you can’t see. To every out trans person: Seeing you live your lives gave me the evidence I needed to accept my own. You took the mystery out of it and replaced it with possibility. You have my everlasting thanks for that.

On my way to the Supreme Court where I'll be proud to support 15-year-old Becky Pepper-Jackson, West Virginia's only transgender athlete, as she opposes the state's effort to ban her from playing as herself. Win or lose, Becky and her family are heroes for standing up for what's right

Mackenzie Scott donates 45 million dollars to the Trevor Project. Absolute legend. 🙌 ❤️ “LGBTQ+ young people matter, and the world is full of people fighting for their safety and well-being.” 🏳️‍⚧️💕

At a bare minimum, Canadian public schools, districts, and boards should not be posting on X. When it’s your literal job to protect children’s interests…

Govt of Canada Communication: THEN vs NOW

Extremely unusual that the Bluesky team is working late on a Sunday night to verify Canadian political parties and elected officials who are rumored to be mulling over a coordinated X ban with Australia and the UK. When there's smoke, there's fire.

The @ndp.ca (or other parties) could do more than delete X They could push for rules requiring government accounts only operate on platforms that meet higher standards around moderation, security and transparency Lead by example. Governments implicitly endorse these platforms with their presence

On one hand, bad On the other hand, nobody could possibly expect governments to act because it's just women and we all know it's not worth upsetting the richest man in the world for women

Honourable @evansolomon.bsky.social, X is unsafe for women. It promotes hate. You know this. Why is the Government of Canada continuing to use this abusive platform that's so clearly opposed to Canadian values – the values that you and our Prime Minister profess to protect? #BanX #BanGrok

Want a lesson in what spinelessness looks like? Look to Canada. We’ve got a government pretending “Canada strong” while allowing a foreign-enemy-run child-sexual-abuse-material-as-a-service bot to continue running in Canada, all whilst abolishing taxes to appease enemy (U.S.) megacorporations.

Just remember: when NPR stopped posting on Twitter they only saw traffic to their site drop by a single percentage point. Canadian news outlets, politicians and government agencies are making an active choice to feed value into Musk’s CSAM fascist engine by continuing their presence.

In reality, this is the *easiest* tech/Canada-US policy challenge this government will face in 2026, for exactly the reason that it involves clear harms against children. Nobody wants to be seen as anti-child or pro-child abuse. Or at least they didn’t before Trump/Musk.

Woke up this morning to Canada’s Ministry of AI issuing either big tech can do what they want, or a high level of government is afraid of a white supremacist pedophile billionaire. Sorry, but if you won’t take a hard line against CSAM, what’s the point?

Setting aside the utter moral bankruptcy of this, once again, Mark Carney is stepping on a rake. Carney and Solomon *must* be overruling their issues management & comms people. You can see it in the stunning naivete of Solomon's statement. Content. Tone. Speed. No comms person recommended that.

Do it.

Trump says that when it comes to Greenland "we will do it the nice way or the difficult way." Canada is over being nice. We stand with our allies.

Having some thoughts about the nature of my fears as a Canadian that I want to try to express in deep solidarity with everyone in Minnesota and elsewhere fighting our common enemy. This thread will not be in the "Canadian asshole" genre. (The opposite, I hope). Still, mute if you want.

"If women leave their husbands because of abuse, the abusive husbands win - so I'm staying"

A few things: 1. Read the room. 2. Crime is at historic lows in Canada. 3. Police do not prevent crime. 4. Funding for education, mental health, drug treatment, housing, youth programs, and other social programs reduces crime. 5. Canadians did not vote for this. #cdnpoli

To paraphrase Margaret Atwood…”men are afraid that women will laugh at them, women are afraid that men will kill them”

The reports of violence, arbitrary arrests and intimidation tactics by the American regime against its own people are profoundly concerning. This Canadian strongly condemns the killing of protestors, and urges the UnSA to allow for freedom of expression & peaceful assembly without fear of reprisal.

Canadian government still using X amid platform’s child sex abuse material scandal globalnews.ca/news/1160665...

This statement was posted exclusively on X, which is also the primary platform Canada's AI Minister posts on @evansolomon.bsky.social has 215,000 followers on X, but only 1,200 on Bluesky. These people just can't let their vanity follower counts go, it's really as simple as that

Remembering today that having your heart broken is a necessary step on the path to becoming fully human. Whichever heartbreak is your first, it’s probably critical that a state break your heart so that you can develop a political imagination. If this is your first, I’m sorry and also welcome.

Looking at you, Canada. 👀

More institutions are deciding some platforms are no longer worth inhabiting. There’s a point where “staying to reach people” becomes "being shaped by the venue." This threshold passes silently. By the time the platform is shaping your tone and incentives, your decision is already made.

They won't stop at trans rights... 👇🏻

Each act, each occasion, is worse than the last, but only a little worse. You wait for the next and the next. You wait for one great shocking occasion, thinking that others, when such a shock comes, will join with you in resisting somehow. 🧵

In 2024, I rose in Senate QP to ask why the Govt of Canada was still using X for official communications. Today, they are still there. What exactly will it take to break the spell?

Silence so far. He should be leading the charge here.

If things continue in the current vein, the moral obligation will be on Canada and Mexico to jointly pull the plug.

Re-upping this column because the idea seems to be gaining traction. But I think I didn't go far enough in this: the government should obviously be deleting its accounts so as to not have their tweets appear next to CSAM. But it should also be pursuing charges against X and banning it in Canada.

According to some of her close friends, it is a prematurely posted obituary. bsky.app/profile/cele...

Actions have consequences.

The whole “transgender for everyone” lie is so nonsensical. The only time I’ve heard of a school going behind parents wishes was when a Christian private school in my city baptized a bunch of kids without telling the parents. It made the news.

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

It is not believable because this is complete bullshit.
