As always, the fantastic dreams of colonialism regularly fail to come true. Resilience comes with indigeneity; populations that seek to supplant become attenuated - and fail. theracket.news/p/the-iron-w...

If Pierre Poilievre was doing this, there’d be widespread yelling but it’s Mark Carney so 🤷🏼‍♂️ Again, having regions of Canada without clean drinking water for people is *a national embarrassment* 😡

I am staggered by the sheer hugeness of this. The #WelshGovernment has a policy of bilingualism. All meetings include translators, so that speakers of English or Welsh can participate equally. But every member of the Welsh Cabinet is a native speaker of #Cymraeg […] [Original post on mastodon.ie]

194 people killed by US military boat strikes. No trials. No public evidence. Ever. Some were fishermen. It took 20 journalists 5 months just to name and identify 13 of the dead. This isn’t a drug war. It’s the blatant execution of poor people. #USDemocracy #Pinks apple.news/AFeRtpmL6Qba...

Look! A Good Thing!

“After years-heck, decades-of pretending to engage constructively on climate issues…Canada’s oil & gas industry has dropped the veil. Any attempt to regulate or restrict their carbon emissions, no matter how small they might be or how much money they happen to be making, are apparently intolerable.”

This is beautiful

Show of hands: who thinks $2,000 is fair compensation from the state for violently taking a mother's baby within hours of the birth? This is a win for the colonizers. They spent far more than $66 million to uphold this oppressive machinery within Canada's massive system of apartheid.

An amazing memorial for the May 9, 1885 blockade of the Saskatchewan river during the Battle of Batoche, by Gabriel Dumont and his troops. The Métis lowered a ferry cable across tthe Saskatchewan, shearing off the steamboat Northcote's top half; preventing it from bringing up ammunition and troops.

Historian of abolition here, history tells us how we got here, to put it succinctly “John Brown was hanged for treason and Robert E. Lee was not.”

Encouraging people to be mindful of the ways labour can exploit people is great. Expecting a busy server to be able to step in and save someone from human trafficking with three to five minutes of training is.. lofty, and maybe missing the mark. My latest for @thetyee.ca thetyee.ca/News/2026/04...

📰 Some excellent reporting from our former Editor-in-Chief, Sydney Lobe! We love to see it🎉

Trump’s meme coin peaked last year at over $45 just after it launched. Its value has since crashed 95%, destroying billions in wealth for millions of average Americans tricked into buying the token. My @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social Chart.

Trump should never be arrested for anything. That is the whole of the law.

What's wild is that the only group that actually violates property rights in Canada is corporations. They can drill through your land and excavate you from your home and send the RCMP if you protest. Yet racists want us all to be mad at Indigenous people who didn't take anyone's property title away

“The truth about B.C.'s unceded land (and your home)” This is grounded in the law, not politics. And until policymakers actually understand it, they can’t deliver the property rights protections that British Columbians deserve. This is VANCOLOUR Thursdays at 9pm @cheknews.ca 📺
