Oh also today, the US withdrew from every major international treaty for climate and environmental protection, violence against women and children, and peacebuilding. More than at any point in the past 100+ years, we are the baddies now.

I can’t fully articulate the way my stomach dropped when I saw this headline. Please know the evidence has not changed. The people in charge have changed, and they did not consult any relevant experts or the public. “This new policy has not been vetted with pediatricians, the public, or the ACIP”

Finland’s battle against fake news starts in preschool classrooms For decades, the Nordic nation has woven media literacy, including the ability to analyze different kinds of media and recognize disinformation apnews.com/article/fake...

NEW: This is very interesting — Seattle City Council has allowed 8-unit buildings up to 3 storeys, or 10 apartments up to 4 storeys (they call them “stacked flats”) if they add green features (like bioswales or green roofs) or preserve trees, in all residential zones across the entire city!

There are too many variables affecting food prices to predict whether cancelling the carbon tax would bring down grocery prices but I am now certain my new talking points about the costly Liberals are definitely the only things affecting food prices. Also, Trudeau. That's Conservative common sense.

Hard no to this: French publisher Harlequin has told translators that their work will now be done by AI. They can ‘revise’ AI translations at much lower rate. It’s a subsidiary of Harper Collins so treat this as a test for rollout elsewhere

Because Ford chose to stay home and not go to Florida, snowmobile trails get some sprucing up… always $$$ for what he “ wants”

Nice to see my buddy, Stuart Phillips, debunking protein hype!👇 What a scientist who studies protein and healthy aging eats in a day wapo.st/4q9t07M "Eating more & more protein isn’t necessarily better for you." "...aim to eat around 0.54 to 0.73 grams of protein per pound of body weight daily."

👏👏👏#SkateCanada Well done to standing up for social justice in sport.

Another poison pill buried in Mark Carney’s budget: a repeal of a reduced postage rates for books and shipments between libraries. Libraries across the country are sounding the alarm for what it would mean for the viability of another essential public institution.

All out in Guelph tonight! Dress warm & tell Mayor Guthrie & some of his councillors that closing bike lanes is more a Doug Ford vibe, but even he was unsuccessful at that.

ICE has taken Chinese dissident Guan Heng into custody and is threatening to return him to China. Guan Heng risked his life to film the Uyghur concentration camps—the same camps Secretary of State Rubio opposed when he sponsored the “Uyghur Force Labor Prevention Act” as a US senator.

Chiefs outside Ontario walked away from the $47.8-billion child-welfare deal, saying its terms didn’t go far enough. They formed a National Chiefs’ Children’s Commission to pursue a new agreement, but the federal government hasn’t met with them yet.

You can get into politics to improve lives or you can go after vulnerable children and pick fights with the federal government.

@indie88toronto.bsky.social Really wish you could splurge and have a different Weekend Café show on Sundays. Just switched off.

Someone orange must be green with envy!!! 🥵🥵🥵

There’s no telling how many similar stories are not being told for fear of retaliation. By now, everyone should realize Trump is not going after violent criminals or the worst of the worst—he is terrorizing everyone, including U.S. citizens, and their loved ones.

The Faroes Islands parliament has voted to amend the abortion law to allow abortion on request up to 12 weeks, after a long campaign by activists. While it's a positive step, those who provide or help facilitate abortion still face criminalization.
