Write & ask PM Carney to fund a National Citizens Assembly on Healthcare for these 3 core issues: 1) Jurisdiction 2) For Profit vs Non-Profit delivery 3) At Fault vs No-Fault harm in care compensation. S Korea Nationalized healthcare and it paid off big time. #cdnhealth 1/4

This week, the Global Sumud Flotilla tried to deliver life-saving aid to Gaza. Instead, 461 people—including New Yorkers—have been detained by the Israeli military. They must be freed at once. And the deliberate starvation of Palestinians must end now.

We don’t want things for free we just want our tax money to go to things like healthcare instead of to Israel for genocide, to the military so they can indiscriminately bomb third world villages to protect oil rights or to prisons that disproportionately confine black & brown ppl

Greta Thunberg along with hundreds of others is being kept in an Israeli prison where she is forced to stay in a cell crawling with bedbugs, refused food and water, and forced to take photographs holding Israel flags. But the West does nothing as Israel tortures its citizens.

Surprised to learn there is no such thing as Alberta oil and that it is actually Canada's oil. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

“This climate of uncertainty has increased the cost of capital, reduced appetite for new investments and led to delayed or cancelled projects. Some lenders reported that projects in advanced financing stages were paused or abandoned altogether in response to recent announcements.”

Just a reminder that Alberta now has the lowest basic minimum wage in the nation. I know no one wants to hear it, but it’s also the only province with no provincial tax generating revenue for the province. Keep those in mind when you hear Smith complain about no money. #cdnpoli #abpoli

Our biggest threat is the fascist USA, not space missiles from China. Unless that is taken seriously, this is all just a transfer of wealth from the public (at the expense of services and public sector jobs) to defence contractors. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Good column. Overdue, and filled with conclusions a lot of people arrived at many, many months ago, but hey, credit where it's due. www.readtheline.ca/p/jen-gerson...

Nearly 80 years after McCarthyism, Jane Fonda relaunches Committee for the First Amendment: ‘The stakes are too high’ www.cnn.com/2025/10/01/e...

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.’”

I could keep throwing up receipts here, but I think you get the point: this is a global phenomenon, not a product of Ottawa's supposed antipathy towards Alberta's oil and gas industry. It's as I wrote, and said, here: www.nationalobserver.com/2025/08/28/o...

Alas, this is complete and utter nonsense. Behold:

Between June 2022 and June 2024, at least 412 people across the country have been charged for crimes related to their pregnancies. These arrests show that, amid the conservative movement to enshrine rights to fetuses, being pregnant is not just a health status. Sometimes, it’s a criminal liability.

Mark Carney, do you know what an existential catastrophe mean? @markcarneyforpm.bsky.social

Evan Li: "if reporters can find me in minutes to contact me for an interview, Bruce McAllister can find me to apologize personally"

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

I kid you not. Americans are now subsidizing Argentinian soybean exports to China. At the same time. American farmers are selling none to China.

They have no shame 👿👇🏼

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Elon Musk, Peter Thiel and Steve Bannon are named in the Epstein files, huh? Who could have guessed??

As we get ready to look back at the last two weeks in politics tomorrow night… It’s worth remembering, for the “CorruptCare” report that was due and then late again this week… These are the terms of reference. Limited exclusively to AHS procurement. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Nebraska soybean producers are getting screwed while Pete Ricketts and his buddies are about to give Argentina-one of our main competitors for China's soybean market-a bailout. China hasn't bought a single American soybean this harvest while Argentina steals our customers with our OWN tax money.

I’d like a new law to completely ignore Danielle Smith.

Warming Arctic permafrost is unlocking toxic metals, turning Alaska’s once-clear rivers into orange, acid-laced streams threatening fish, ecosystems, and communities that depend on them—with no way to stop the process once it starts. www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...

The Sisters of Charity are some badass nuns. They called out Cardinal Dolan for saying Charlie Kirk was a "modern day Saint Paul" by reminding him Saints aren't usually racist, hateful pieces of shit. I hope their convent doesn't get defunded. www-nbcnews-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.nbcn...
