“Open the Fuckin’ tomb, you crazy bastards” - Jesus, probably

I had the honour & privilege of meeting Stephen Lewis several years ago at a dinner with students after he delivered a speech at UNB. His intensity, focus, & command of his surroundings were deeply impressive, the depths of his compassion & commitment unquestionable, & his eloquence: extraordinary.

Did I miss the unequivocal condemnation by the #CarneyLiberals -- in no uncertain, wishy-washy, appeasement-oriented terms -- of the abhorrent threats to bomb desalination plants, or the ongoing commission of war crimes by attacking Iranian civilian infrastructure, by 45/47 & his cabal of criminals?

Wikipedia now has higher standards than all universities

"Elbows up" is 1 thing. The federal "It's time to build strong" ad campaign sounds like propaganda 101. Canada's legacy is so much more than commerce & chest beating. It is fraught, & often flawed, but also has times when courage, honour, fairness & decency were valued more than enriching the rich.

This 1990 speech by Carl Sagan is timely times two: #war #climate

Obviously, it will be called the "Trumpstein-Papers Distraction Moon Base." Right?

Canada must stand with Cuba. Here is how you can help. substack.com/home/post/p-...

We don't need to worry about the Orange Turd's threats re making Canada the 51st State. The #CarneyLiberals are already doing that by cutting public service funding, removing wealth taxes, building the military industrial complex & favouring oil/gas, & private wealth interests over the environment.

I went to a funeral for a friend's husband where stories were told re his kindness, courage, loyalty, curiosity, compassion, humanity (e.g. a sometimes problematic stubborn streak), interests, friendships, devotion to family, & capacity for living in the moment. He lived well. I hope to do the same.

CANADIANS!!! Please fill this out and share it widely because HOLY SHIT. I struggle to drive on the freeway at night now because of the headlights.

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

Jacob Collier is a British multi-album Grammy award winner. He is known for his "audience choir' interactions, skillfully leading thousands of audience members in improvised, multi-part singing. This performance on Oct 27 2025, was his first attempt at the "audience orchestra" concept. #music

who made this

Thanks for writing these novels @cmdr-hadfield.bsky.social. I was glad to have the excuse of the 3rd to re-read the first 2, & really enjoyed them all.

As US citizens demand full release the DOJ continues to break US law by holding back the Trumpstein files. Released files exposed threats to UK financial security thru the JE/Mountbatten bond. Why aren't gov'ts (looking at you #CarneyLibs) demanding the files to ID nat'l security & criminal threats?

They bombed a girls school. #CarneyLibs might support a felonious grifter (who tore up a nuclear deal w/Iran) & his crew of Incompetents starting an illegal war-by murdering 50+ children-to distract his cultish base from his central role in a sex trafficking pedo ring but this Canuck doesn't. Shame.

Explicit support for an illegal war started by a country that is directly threatening us. This is beyond appeasement, it's total complicity.

It's been a long time coming. Canadian independent bookstores have banded together to create an online book buying source so you can avoid the behemoth in the room. (Here are the titles published by CMU Press, which I run.) Spread the word #booksky! www.booksellers.ca/publisher/cmu-press-18021

Saying it again, slowly this time, for PP's party: #Not.Being.Fascist.Is.A.GOOD.Thing.

The US President is a repugnant, grifting & unbalanced liar who surrounds himself with self-serving & unqualified sycophants. That he was elected to the highest office in the land once was tragic. But twice? They & the GOP are responsible for global harms that will neither be forgotten nor forgiven.

GOOD NEWS: The world’s largest steam-producing heat pump is now online in Finland, delivering 12 MW of superheated steam from waste heat and CO₂-free electricity. Proof that industrial heat can be electrified at scale. www.pv-magazine.com/2026/02/19/w...

Politicians crossing the floor from PP's party to the #CarneyLibs is no surprise. Both parties are pro-fossil fuel, pro-big business, willing to sacrifice the environment & public service, & prioritizing the economy over social good. They're leaving the Cons in opposition for the Con-lites in power.

Wow.

Just placed my pre-order for the Jolla Phone. I'm an iPhone user, but with the way American corporations have been behaving, now felt like a good time to invest in privacy-first European alternatives 🇪🇺 Plus, it runs Android apps, so I can test the Chunky Guys app and see how it performs. #jolla

Thinking about Tumbler Ridge.

A pre-cancer test for a preventable cancer: very good news! Hopefully it will be available on every health system in Canada.

This was a hard one to make — mostly because we shouldn’t even have to talk about this. We should be focusing on the victims. The families. The community. But some selfish, awful people are using this moment for their own political agendas. We can’t let them do that:

My doomer-worry about AI is not that the LLMs become omnipotent and take over the world but that the wealthy and powerful use it as a means to consolidate power and marginalize or lay off skilled workers and also everything about our technological and political and social life gets worse

Condolences to the community of Tumbler Ridge in the aftermath of a horrific mass shooting.

After a trial over the last few years, Ireland has launched a permanent scheme giving a basic income of €325 a week for artists. 2,000 will be eligible, and successful recipients will be chosen at random from applicants, who must be "professional artists" (definition tbc).

The world is poised to overshoot the goal of limiting average global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, as for the first time, a three-year period, ending in 2025, has breached the threshold. Climate scientists are predicting devastating consequences.

Hey #CarneyLibs & #CanadianPremiers, how about investing some $ & political will in something like these + solar, wind, & hydro power generation? Plus education & (re-)training programs, so we have systems in place & Canadians who know how to install, operate, & maintain them, when the oil runs out?

Please support this petition calling for a parliamentary investigation into foreign (American) interference in our country. It is sponsored by my former colleague Don Davies www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

The Epstein Class. Everyone should refer to the ultra wealthy that way from now on.

He's creating investment opportunities for the Epstein class.

So far …

Sending encouragement & support from the Atlantic region to Albertans who understand their valued membership in Canada. We know that you know: nothing anyone in the US administration says can be trusted. Wishing you strength & patience when dealing with any wannaleavers you know. They've been duped.

Is there any official investigation into Canadians in the Epstein files?

This is also true for Canada. If the CarneyLib government was serving the people, their policies would be reducing inequality, raising taxes on the wealthy & preventing wealth concentration while operating openly & transparently. Instead, they are $erving the interests of corporations & the rich.

Sending as much love, respect & admiration as I can muster to the children & young people trafficked, abused, & murdered by Epstein, Maxwell & their customers. May the former find peace. May the latter-& those who protect them-face justice & receive all the punishment they deserve. #BelieveSurvivors
