Look at this, it appears Canada about to ban the Palestine flag? www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Recognition of State of Palestine by Canada, France, UK etc is not only performative it is dangerous. It doesnt commit to ending genocide or implementing arms embargo and sanctions. Plus, explicitly calls for demilitarization of Palestine and disarming resistance. Reviving Oslo is not an option!

Given the extreme nature of many of Charlie Kirk’s comments, the simple act of rising for a standing ovation in response to his death has taken on significance. #canpoli #uspoli

Huge scoop from the CP: Canadian Press is reporting that Premier Danielle Smith has directed the justice ministry to use the notwithstanding clause to push through three anti-trans laws that would otherwise be blocked by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the Alberta Bill of Rights

Welp. Time to reset the “Days since Canadian government gave a standing ovation to a Nazi” counter back to zero, I guess.

Canada’s Parliament just gave Charlie Kirk a standing ovation. You can oppose political violence without rewriting the legacy of a man who did a lot of harm to vulnerable and marginalized communities. But Canada’s politicians, some media and many employers don’t seem to entirely understand that:

Truly so embarrassing AND dangerous of Canadian MPs to "mourn" ding dong's death in the House of Commons. Y'all celebrated a literal Nazi in the House and were shamed within an inch of your lives for it (Justifiably!) and then mere months later, pull this stunt?

This looks like a digital marketing agency (Bold Move) running a pro-Palestine account. Who are these people? Why is an ad company doing follower spam and building a mailing list?

Charlie Kirk’s shooter was a 22 year old white cis man & 4chan groyper. Charlie Kirk’s last words were “gang violence”. he was claiming Black people were inherently violent right before his life was ended by another white man. Here is a description of Kirk’s terrorism by one of his many victims:

God its so disingenuous to pretend that all CK did was “have horrible opinions”. The man co-founded an organization that’s sole function was to fight tooth and nail to indoctrinate children at school into violent white nationalism. He wasn’t even just a pundit. He was ceo of the baby Nazi factory.

Rest in piss Charlie Kirk.

Another conflict of interest! The Investigative Journalism Foundation has found that Vitor Marciano, chief of staff to Alberta's energy minister, is the head of a lobbying company whose CFO is actively lobbying the energy ministry on more than 2 dozen files. theijf.org/alberta-ener... #ABLeg #ABPoli

Elbows up was a psy-op suckers.

one thing that’s refreshing about trump is that he doesn’t try to hide the evil of the united states behind deceptive language designed to obscure what’s really going on

Canada is arming Israel—and Liberals can’t stop lying about it. New video from @breachmedia.ca breachmedia.ca/canada-is-ar...

The video of an attack on a camp next to a hospital with a missile full of flying razor blades at night. The relatively quiet sound of this metal projectile landing, and then people find their limbs suddenly cut off. That one's in my memory for good.

It's Minnesota State Fair time! It's time for Minnesotan folk art! Here, for example, is Saturn Devouring His Corn, in the seed art category!

Breaking! City of Burnaby just became first city in Canada to join arms embargo movement against Israel AND the first Apartheid-Free City, breaking ties with Israeli apartheid and settler colonialism. We've been organizing for months towards this precedent in colonial Canada.

As Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo put it: "A city where you can get let go of your child's hand"

My latest for Canadian Dimension: decades of governments undermining collective bargaining rights in Canada has led to companies like @aircanada.bsky.social running straight to them to end strikes instead of bargaining in good faith. canadiandimension.com/articles/vie...

“Air Canada flight attendants will defy the back-to-work order and remain on strike after the federal government ordered binding arbitration to end the work stoppage”

Government tries to regulate an industry and the capitalists scream that it's tyrannical over reach. But if the workers demand better pay or working conditions immediately it's "save us daddy government! We fear the hands of the free market suddenly!"

BBC International Editor Jeremy Bowen has confirmed that the entire Al Jazeera team in Gaza City has been killed.

Seeing an awful lot of people sick with Covid right now. Many saying “Covid is back”. It never left. That’s why some of us are still advocating for mitigations. Every infection is a dice roll with disability. Wear a mask. Clean the air. Stay home when sick.

"The context of this case remains clear: the government is interfering in the relationship between doctors and patients by seeking to ban medically necessary, evidence-based care for an already marginalized group of youth."

Every word of this is agony to read. What Israel is doing to Palestinians is pure barbarism... by far the greatest single crime of the 21st century. Every sane person must oppose this evil.
