Dear fellow Canadians, how do we do something about this? This was reportable and they failed to report. How do we make them duty bound to report and prevent this from happening again? Hit them where it hurts, right on the bottom line.

The latest threat from the Facebook world of trolls, bots, intimidation. Introducing Milford the keyboard warrior. I make it a point to share these threats so people can see the nature of the right wing mob attempting to frighten people who stand up for Canada. It ain't going to work Milford.

I spent a lot of time on a recent train trip from #Vancouver to #Toronto on railway sidings, waiting for a slow-moving freight train to pass. In the US, Amtrak trains have legal precedence over freight trains. That's not the case in #Canada... 🧵

Sigh. When are we going to recognize the real threat.of covid? Getting tired of reposting constantly and nothing changes.

The globalisation of fascism is such a fascinating thing

New Mexico officials are reopening the investigation at Epstein’s Zorro Ranch. Let’s be clear: they’re investigating claims that girls may have been murdered and buried there. It’s a crime scene and should have been taken seriously years ago. Instead, here we are. Looking at a cold case.

When he was released to be driven back to the farm in the early evening, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, far from his usual appearance of arrogant and complacent disdain, looked shell-shocked and frankly scared www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026... #epsteinfiles

Subsidies are a powerful instrument to shift to preferred societal behaviours. So, not like this... Beef and lamb get 580 times more in EU subsidies than legumes, study finds www.theguardian.com/environment/...

The economics of #LNG are broken. You can't glue the pieces back together with wishful thinking. Shattered by heat pumps and batteries and solar panels. #bcpoli

One of Canada's top indie "news" outlets is standing by the decision to platforming a dude who is so thirsty for mass deportations, even *Jason Kenney* called him racist. Now that dude's hateful group is ecstatic about this "huge development." Yikes!

Frustrating, inconsistent, opaque.This devastating decision will have long-term impacts on those most vulnerable in our affordability crisis. It sends a chill through the non-market housing sector, leaving municipalities and non-profits in limbo. #bcpoli

I have to admit, 30 minutes into this press conference, Trump is sharp, poised, persuasive, and—ha ha just kidding he's still a no-show, our moist bronze president is still getting himself ready to slur, mumble, and yell incoherently.

1. Pointing out that the Iranian regime's actions are horrific does not in any way subtract from the horror of the Israeli government's genocide in Gaza, or from other atrocities. There are, unfortunately, plenty here who seem to believe we should be partisan in our denunciations. They are wrong. 🧵

What was that about cycling not taking off in cold, wet and hilly cities? Turns out all you need is good safe space for cycling, but some of us have been saying that for a long time. road.cc/news/cyclist...

Extreme #wildfire risk has nearly tripled, because of burning fossil fuels like BC's fracked gas. Why do @davidebybc.bsky.social & @mark-carney.bsky.social want to fan flames so more communities burn? apnews.com/article/wild... #bcpoli #StopLNG

“Underneath our differences, we share a deep common ground in our core values and beliefs. Values like… um… uhhhhh….” Carney trailed off.

Neoliberal capitalism sits on a foundation of hate, and created the conditions for fascists like Trump to seize power.

DYK⁉️ Planned LNG export projects alone could result in releasing over 10 gigatonnes of CO₂ by 2030. That's the same amount in annual emissions of the U.S. and the EU combined 😲 It's time to #StopLNG More stats at ExitLNG.org

We’re building a people-powered movement to stop fracking and LNG expansion in B.C. It starts with a petition, but it’s about connection, climate justice, affordability and public health. #StopLNG #ClimateAction Sign up ➡️ wildernesscommittee.org/stoplng

When Tommy Douglas fought for Medicare, they called it too radical. He proved them wrong. He knew it was what a supermajority of Canadians wanted, and the kind of Canada we deserved. That’s the NDP’s legacy – and it must be the party’s future again.

we must stop buying this idiotic American idea that the worst thing you can do to a white powerful man for committing horrible crimes against democracy is "losing your job and people saying mean things about you." there are far worse things we can do to these criminals, and we should do them.

Brutal. Millions and millions of dollars wasted on projects that now won't go ahead, and thousands of affordable homes gone, all in service of shielding the wealthy from paying slightly more in taxes. Disgusting.

Happy Arrest of the Andrew formerly known as Prince Randy to all who celebrate. And as always, thank you feminism.

If you or people you know take transit in BC (especially in #yyj), this is going to hurt. We need to get the word out and put the pressure on about how important expansion, not stagnation (i.e. less service over time) is!

3/3 In particular, it seems like some #Saanch folk (including municipal staff) have the outdated idea that almost everyone on a bicycle is going really fast and that all people on wheelchairs and mobility scooters can only go really slow. #yyj youtu.be/DbTSpy5C4UY?...

I'm realizing that some people in #yyj think wheelchairs and 4 wheel mobility scooters are all slow. In fact the province recently regulated the maximum speed to 25 km/hr and before that models that go 30 km/hr were being sold. e.g. 'Hand cycles Carlos' becoming common. And 🧵 #bcpoli

"Climate doom is far less common than people think. Only a small share of Canadians believe it’s too late... The bigger challenge is the widespread belief that others don’t care, and the lack of conversation that keeps climate action stuck." reclimate.ca/canadians-ha... #EndClimateSilence #bcpoli

"The government’s unwillingness to ensure that higher income British Columbians and wealthy property owners contribute more is what’s keeping the deficit as high as it is... The cost of climate inaction grows every year." #TaxTheRich bcpolicy.ca/2026/02/17/b... #bcpoli

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide. This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

while the BCNDP was caving to the diversion moral panic and severely limiting its safe supply program, the public safety ministry was acknowledging in budget preparation documents that hydromorphone only accounted for 0.3% of VPD drug seizures by weight

The 2026 Budget freezes transit funding and forces service cuts. Write your MLA and tell them to protect transit funding! At the minimum, the BC gov should allow local governments to make up for lost funding. #yyj #bcpoli bettertransityyj.ca/2026/02/17/2...

I don't know how many times I have to say that it is the role of government to design and fund a public transit network. We can't expect a private company to provide a public good.

In less than 24 hours, Colbert's interview with Talarico is at more than 3.8 million YouTube views. The video is already one of the two most watched videos on the Late Show's YouTube page this year.

If the right dominates the infosphere, if they can demonize any marginalized population they turn their eye on, then strategizing around *a current snapshot of public opinion* is almost definitionally misguided. They can change that opinion. Dems can't seem to, or won't try. All else is noise.

This whole fight over transgender stuff happening on X is so weird to me. The most notable thing about trans issues in the last 5 years has been the enormous, coordinated anti-trans activism campaign across the right, aided by moral cowards in the center. But that campaign is *never mentioned*.

Yes. Calling these people stupid is a category error.

Probably the most straightforward example of government censorship of the broadcast news in my lifetime? They must really be scared of Talarico talking about genuine Christianity www.usatoday.com/story/entert...
