Is anyone else tired of turning on CBC NN and all you see is the slow disintegration of the USA into a fascist, terrorist state!

Danielle Smith claims that she wants to use the notwithstanding clause to prevent children from being "sterilized"... (Kids aren't being sterilized) But on closer examination, it's clear there's a lot more going on. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Canada has listed the Bishnoi gang as a terrorist entity. This continues the trend of both listing criminal groups as terrorists and the politicization of our listings process. A short (grumpy) thread: www.canada.ca/en/public-sa...

Life is but a series of consequences of your actions.

Political cycles are engineered distraction. Policy is theatre. Power moves backstage. Strategic mindfulness isn’t calm — it’s clarity. Presence turns noise into leverage. The one who sees beneath perception controls the outcome. proconsul.ghost.io/strategic-mi... Proconsul Clarity Action Proof

Speaking as a sociologist who studies failing and failed organizations, no - there's nothing worse than people, more so when they coalesce into groups... and don't get me started on the smell...

Or (and hear me out) perhaps Canada could increase post-secondary funding to generate our own world-class experts.

For those with a deviant desire for the gnarliest org-chart porn imaginable, here's some fresh material:

"...suggesting that the tech industry is selling a still-hypothetical future rather than delivering a real one" this is how a vibes economy works

“We are marching toward an uninsurable future in this country and across the globe, marching into the abyss.”

Saw Maria Bamford last night in Toronto. One of the best performances of any kind I've ever seen. She's at the absolute top of her game. So funny, but it also felt like the falling into place, and transcendence, of everything she's ever done. If she's performing anywhere near you, GO SEE HER.

"Bill C-2 lays the groundwork for sharing your private data to U.S. authorities, including the NSA, FBI, and ICE, whether you’ve done anything wrong or not. That’s because C-2 makes many of the changes necessary for Canada to ratify a CLOUD ACT agreement with the U.S." openmedia.org/article/item...

There is far too much Americanization in Canada already. We consume their news, their movies, their TV, their celebrity obsessed culture. Their products, their corporations, their violence, their rhetoric. Just STOP. TURN ON THE CBC, hockey game, or walk in the woods, go fishing, read CDN books.

The fascists went to Newcastle. Newcastle said gan an fuck yersells.

My dearest wife, It is week two of the Siege of Portland, and still these barbarians will not yield to our troops. We have severed the cords of their latte machines but they are making cowboy coffee in their camps, where loud ukulele songs of resistance even now drift in on the breeze.

“You have not met all the people that will love you” is so comforting

The #NovaScotia government has tabled legislation that could weaken a key section of the province’s transparency law. 🤬 If adopted, the bill would remove what a provincial watchdog described as a crucial portion of the Freedom of Information & /1 Thread www.ctvnews.ca/atlantic/nov...

Listen to this explaination of our Conservatives & how Canada went from Party of the Progressive Conservatives of Canada think of Joe Clark to the conservatives we have to day under Stephen Harper & Poilievre. Well worth listen about present day Canada.

Cognitive dissonance is not a personal shortcoming… we all suffer from it. For instance, part of my brain is cooking up escape routes for when nationwide martial law is declared, and another part is looking forward to getting the PacMan Atari 2600+ console I ordered today

Right now they're having to pay people to take natural gas in western Canada. Apparently winters not being as cold as they once were is the problem. I wonder who's responsible for that? www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

Yes, I'm aware, but this is Canada-branded. That will move it into the mainstream much more easily.

“We should want to take advantage of the post office’s unique, nationwide infrastructure to provide more and better services to Canadians instead of dismantling something that we may never be able to rebuild.” @parismarx.com

The most important advice I ever got, and followed throughout my career, was this: Speak up. Don’t stay quiet, even if the room you’re in is scary. If you have something to contribute, share it. Every success I’ve had probably came from being willing to say what I think when others might not have.

Excellent communication abilities, and knowing how to be interesting and persuasive. That, combined with a strong sense of strategy and judgement to know what, when and how to communicate, is the most powerful thing that’s too often missing in city planning and urbanism in general.

I’m giving money to this because you never know when you’re going to be the one who has to crowdfund your defense against a nuisance lawsuit

While @mark-carney.bsky.social uses our Women’s Rugby team for another social media moment understand that the Tragically Hip had to fundraise for them because Carney refused additional funding. He uses women without investing in them. #cdnpoli

Postal banking and other financial products, selling government permits and licenses, e-commerce support for small buisness, expanded retail space to increase cash flow, and improve on community services. Ask Canadians what they would like to see offered by Canada Post.

#BreakTheChains - Resistance is not an option, it is a vital impulse, a state of being. It is not something you choose, it is something you experience, and sometimes, it is resistance that chooses you. #ƒred-ƒorge Excerpt from : "The Cry" [When Silence Becomes Rebellion] Art/mixed media : ƒLB

These are unprecedentedly challenging times for virology & vaccine research. I am so grateful to face them at @vido.org. It's an amazing place to study & make vaccines to improve human & animal health in Canada & around the world. #VIDOis50 www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
