At some point the endless string of corrupt behaviour has got to catch up to Doug Ford. How will this play with all the rubes who see him as 'one of them'?

What a weeke, huh?

At a certain point of wealth, what is being pursued seems not to be wealth, but the ability to make other people suffer. What's being pursued is immunity from human decency; the ability and even the right to be depraved with impunity. They get off on the suffering. www.the-reframe.com/where-it-ends/

Brutal.

One day, "It" will happen, by which I mean sudden and unexpected news that you want to celebrate. In such cases, you will want the right outfit. 🧵

In case you missed it, this was my biggest personal project from 2025: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9k7O... Once you've watched it, don't forget to watch the Behind the Scenes documentary, which explains a lot of the references! It's at www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivBB...

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

I’m finding myself torn between a “Try to find the humour in it all” and a “This looks like a good place to start digging my bomb shelter” mindset so I might try writing some satire while on my breaks from mixing cement.

Every single woman you know has had this happen to her. Even the goddamn president of Mexico.

My sister in Halifax sent this pic she took of a guy greeting tourists down at the Halifax pier! We’re Nice!

Silhouetted remains of the High Court Banksy creating a curiously medieval quality...as if depicting Thomas a Becket being attacked in the crypt 'It is dangerous for men in power, if no-one dares to tell them when they go wrong' Thomas A Becket 1118-1170

One of those days when you tune in and discover you’re at war with Eastasia.

This is a wonderful piece that shows the absolute courage of this girl and her family and team. The viciousness of anti trans hate, particularly from Christian organization is astounding. Thank you @brucearthur.bsky.social for not being a bystander to hate and bullying.

Went to a Liberal rally tonight. Heard prime minister Carney speak. He is very human and funny in his stump speech. The last liberal rally I attended was for Pierre Elliot Trudeau. Kinda dates me. I’ve mostly voted NDP in the interim but not this time. #elbowsup.

Voted!

I had 10 accounts from Turkey follow me in the last 39 seconds - they looked like porn or spam or both - anyway I can prevent this? I have blocked them all.

Is anyone else still enraged from watching CBC Katie Simpson interview of people in Tennessee last night? Their casual indifference to & lack of empathy for Canada & the chaos caused by their country to ours. Also their blindness to the rushing slide to authoritarianism in their country. #elbowsup

@proudlycanadiantoques is a great fundraiser that the Toronto Star has. Profits support over 1200 food banks through Feed Ontario. Loving this cosy expression of my love for Canada. starstore.ca/products/pro...

CNBC is calling it the Tesla Chain Saw Massacre. 🤣

Yup - they won’t be selling it in Mexico either. I imagine they won’t find a market in a lot of the rest of the world. The supply chains will be changed forever. All trust is gone.

Why won’t he? I am asking this seriously. Seems very strange to me.

We all need help with moving beyond feeling incredibly anxious and onto concrete action. I’m looking forward to listening.

Awwww

Just heard Cdn writer Louise Penny interviewed on #CBC radio. She has cancelled her book tour to the US in response to the unprecedented attack by the US on our sovereignty. Bravo! I bought her book - you should too!

Thanks for this - I feel better already.

substack.com/@tullmcadoo/... this will make you feel good.

open.substack.com/pub/charliea.... Great read - I learned a lot about labour history in this country. Gives me heart we can survive this mess.

Canadians don’t want to travel to the US any more. This is the US Customs hall at Toronto’ Pearson International Airport, and it’s the start of March break, the school spring holiday week, with most families traveling. Apparently this year they’re choosing anywhere except the US.

What a great idea - Peace by Chocolate for those that don’t know is a Nova Scotian company started by Syrian refugees who settled in Canada. Great stuff!

This is not going to go down well in The Hammer. Cleveland-Cliffs must be scared sh*tless of Tr*mp or they have absolutely no regard for their employees. Or both. “Elbows up” Steeltown and Nanticoke.
