Today, on the anniversary of the École Polytechnique massacre, we remember the names of every woman who was killed because they were women. (1/3)

Ooo, this is a very cool thing. Can we make this happen in Canada please?

Great to hear some wonderful news on the CBC radio show The Current. Injectable lenacapavir cuts HIV transmission rates by almost 100%. Love it when the work of committed researchers & health professionals pays off. Kudos!!

I did not know Ireland invented the boycott. Brilliant! #FreePalestine

Sending out love to trans, non-binary & other folks under attack from the right for being who they are. You matter, you have value, & the world is a better place because you are here. I'm sorry things are so awful, & I hope you can stay safe until the trolls shuffle back under their bridges to stay.

If Canada & Europe are committed to democracy & freedom, we must condemn & counter 45/47 & his enablers/family's efforts to enrich themselves by selling Ukraine. How can we stop Putin's money supply? Send seized Russian assets to Ukraine? Convince oil & gold buyers to shop elsewhere? #SlavaUkraine

The sense of entitlement is staggering. Forced-Birthers don't have to have an abortion if they don't want one. Why should they have any say in others' decisions? Attempts to impose their beliefs by limiting access are undemocratic. Resistance is required. In sum: Forced-Birthers can Fuck.Right.Off.

Wow. LLMs sure have made the internet shitty. Way to go, AIssholes.

This is a very concerning story. Cold Lake First Nation is living in 3rd world conditions. They have been completely frozen out by Mark Carney/Danielle Smith's plan to drive a 400 km pipeline carbon capture facility on their land. This won't end well Mark. www.nationalobserver.com/2025/11/26/n...

It appears that the appeal of starting a new project is strongest when a current project is somewhere between 80% and "nearly" done.

Sure would be nice to have the better idea 1st instead of 4th or 5th.

Using public monies to prop up fossil fuel industries & perpetuate the economy's reliance on non-renewable energy sources is a divestment in the future.

Soup weather has arrived in Atlantic Canada.

youtu.be/E4M260gCxFQ?... These LOSERS have to be exposed. Also, I wonder about Poillievre, the bottom dragging politician who will suck up to creeps for votes. Ugh

Thank You We elected Carney to face off a couple of demons. That does NOT mean we sold our souls. We HAVE to keep him in check youtu.be/Lt6Hmp9ndkI?...

Useful answers in the comments!

If economic growth in Canada needs capital to flow through activities like investment, & a healthy & educated/trainable workforce exchanging its labour for wages it then spends on goods & services, how can 1% of the population controlling 25% of the nation's wealth help growth? #TaxtheScroogeMcDucks

Yes. Some hopeful news from the ongoing soap opera to the south is a nice blip. Now can Canada try ending disproportionate wealth accumulation by a few at the expense of the many, rebuilding gutted social safety nets & public services, & addressing the global existential threat of climate change?

From a 2024 Maclean's article "...the combined net worth of the 10 richest Canadians is now $261 billion, compared to $60 billion in 2004." Let's hope the new federal budget taps that resource. macleans.ca/society/cana...

Thinking about those in Melissa's path.

Thanks to @nbpower.bsky.social crews for restoring power to ~25000 New Brunswickers today after a dump truck-meets-transmission-line incident. Hope no-one was hurt.

The future of Canada requires extinguishing our colonial mentality & structures, owning & making reparations for our colonial past, honouring the terms of our treaties, meeting our obligations, & fulfilling the TRCC recommendations. For a start.

For those who don't understand contractions: antifa=antifascist=a good thing.

Canadians: The federal government is seeking public input on how AI should be developed and used in business, research, and the military. If this scares the shit out of you, please let them know:

If Putin's DJToddler speaks in a room and no one is around to hear it, does he spew a lie?

As American democracy is burned to the ground by the GOP's support for Putin's DJToddler & his vicious appointees, don't blame Canadians for cutting fire break$ & stomping out embers from the conflagration as they fly north.

Some advice for U.S. folks in the fray.

I really hope PM Carney pitching XL was just shaking the keys for the Orange Toddler, not a serious offer. We're 5 yrs (less if Premier Smith gets her "double oil production" pipedream) away from peak oil. How can XL be seen as a good investment of public $? Renewables are the present & the future.

Condolences to April Telek for the stayed charges against Nygard in Winnipeg. I am sorry she did not get her "day in court" because police could not produce records. Police & the judicial system need to do better.

Folks, it's happening. We're releasing Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile this Thursday at 7 p.m. Mark your calendars. Get excited to know even less about Jeffrey Epstein.

Something wonderful: Ember energy think tank report that global tipping point between renewable & non-renewable energy sources has been reached. Renewable sources produced more energy than demand, & more than coal. Canada has sun & wind. Now we need political will to move in the right direction.

Best wishes to Alberta teachers! May the strike convince the UCP gov't to start investing adequately in public education. And if we're really lucky, stop banning books.

I had the pleasure of attending one of Dame Goodall's presentations several years ago. What an extraordinary woman. She will be missed.

I am so grateful for the work of @hcrichardson.bsky.social. Her generous, calm, factual and accessible accounts contextualize and make sense of an, apparently, endless stream of nonsense.

Wonder if any of the execs who supported not renewing Mr Colbert's contract have watched GOOD NIGHT & GOOD LUCK.

As Fran Lebowitz said, “You do not know anyone as stupid as Donald Trump”

I’m seeing some incorrect info being circulated again, about refugees versus pensioners. So I thought this was worth sharing. This is from the Canadian Council for Refugees. This article is from 2013, so some of the numbers have likely changed since then. #cdnpoli ccrweb.ca/en/pensioner...

I’m mentally & physically exhausted but I’m proud of my country & honoured to be doing my part. Please remember folks that us Election poll workers are putting in a 12-14 hour day. 2 down, 2 to go. Keep up the great work Canadians & get out and VOTE ! 🇨🇦♥️

Have seen several vandalised green & red candidate signs in my riding, but not blue. If that nastiness is what passes for acceptable behaviour by PP's party & its supporters to get elected, IMO it also demonstrates their unsuitability to hold office.

#Elbowsuplist: delete Amazon & cancel streaming services (easily), avoid US-made goods & prioritize buying Canadian (improving), no travel to/through US for at least 4 years (committed), manage amount of attention & emotion paid to barrage of US news (struggling). How's everyone else doing?
