After President Trump's fatuous nonsense speech to UNGA on the occasion of the UN's 80th anniversary, consider listening to a real speech, that of. Norway's Foreign Minister, Espen Barth Eide. Gaza at about 6.00, climate change at about 12. #cdnpoli www.youtube.com/watch?v=sbcE...

🇨🇦 When Trump talks about “getting Greenland,” it’s a threat to Arctic sovereignty. CBC connects the dots: Canada + Greenland deepening ties, shared Inuit communities, and resisting foreign pressure. This is why we must #SaveTheCBC. 🔗 r.pebmac.ca/https://www.... 🌐 forevercanadian.ca

But no way was anything like this is happening in Moscow

Canada must act, did you hear this condemnation @anitaoakvilleeast.bsky.social 'I call on those who have provided & who continue to provide Israel with the means necessary to prosecute its war to reflect carefully on the implications of their actions & the consequences for the Palestinian people.’

OMFG

The near daily barrage of deadly mass shootings in America feels like low level warfare against normal citizens who just want to live in peace. And because people keep electing Republicans who won’t do anything about it there’s no solution in sight.

They do not listen. They perform. Ask those Conservative MPs. I expect they have NO IDEA why the Minister rose or content of her remarks. THIS is their nature. Arrogant individuals elected to REPRESENT Canadians - whose priority is to bully and harangue. They’ve no intention to act FOR Canadians.

Thinking Elizabeth May may have been the better choice. This is disrespectful of every Canadian. It's childish and just plain stupid. What can we do about it? They represent us, and the Speaker should know how we feel about it.

It has been frustrating for a long time that every Speaker has been too afraid to stop the heckling that is causing a state of chaos in Parliament. It has to STOP. The worst offenders must be NAMED and removed.

The Harper playbook is to disrupt the democratic functioning of government That’s all they do Power over good governance

Conservative MPs heckle while Minister Hajdu reads a grade 7 student’s comments about the school food program. I’m sorry but what is the Speaker there for? Because this behaviour needs to start having repercussions. The hell with “Collegues”. Seriously 😒 ❤️🍁🇨🇦TEAM CANADA FOREVER🇨🇦🍁❤️

Somewhere in this country there is a 12 or 13 year old child who should be proud to have their words read in parliament. And this happens. What kind of asshole talks over a middle schooler’s words?

“More specifically, we cannot accept language that pushes destructive gender ideology,” Kennedy said. “Neither can we accept claims of a constitutional or international right to abortion." No matter the threat, @mark-carney.bsky.social must fund #WAGE & work toward equity & protect human rights.

It’s one thing to withdraw from global health It’s another thing to block other nations from global initiatives and goals NO ONE COUNTRY SHOULD HAVE SO MUCH POWER!!! healthpolicy-watch.news/un-declarati...

I listened and it was one of the most chilling conversations I’ve ever heard.

What provinces will need to be pushed around? Most have already changed their laws without consultation, except one, so that it's easier to transfer public land to private hands (totally ignoring land claims), weakening environmental requirements, and pushing through even where some FNs say no.

That's absolutely false. The legislation allows them to do whatever they want. Try reading it more carefully.

This can work, unless you are an Alberta municipality, threatened by a MAGA Smith GoA. ‘city covers clinic costs —rent, overhead & staffing. Space from the pharmacy next door is leased, keeping costs down. Council allocated as much as $500,000 to set up the clinic, with no extra burden for taxpayer'

are you really fighting antisemitism by putting the lives and health of Jewish students at risk to palliate a christofascist regime? or is that fucked up?

ezra klein: "I don’t know what my role is anymore. I’ll be totally honest with you, man. I feel very conflicted about that question." like, you're a leading liberal journalist and opinion setter in the age of fascism, and you don't know what your role is? Like I said, I think he's broken.

Moldova: 3 Kremlin operatives arrested after they crossed the border from Russia-occupied Transnistria. They were to instigate chaos and unrest following the announcement of election results. Improvised explosives seized.

There is speculation that Ukraine used HIMARS GMLRS missiles to strike the Belgorod Heat and Power Plant and two electrical substations in Russia across the border. If true, Ukraine received explicit permission for the strikes from the US administration. 👍

Mfer just came out and tweeted that the law is different for a Republican President.

Ty Cobb: "The simple theme is rewriting history. Trump wants to rewrite history so the next generation may not know that he incited a violent insurrection... America needs to learn from the mistakes that we've had. And one of the biggest mistakes that America ever had was reelecting President Trump"

…I believe the current Alberta government reflects many of the worst instincts of the MAGA movement seizing hold of the United States, and no one is safe until everyone is safe."

…Speaking as someone who has experienced police brutality and criminalization on Alberta soil for standing against Palestinian genocide, I urge journalists and publishers to unite against fascism everywhere it appears…

…Eighteen months after my story was published, we are now seeing the worst of its conclusions become reality: drug jails and police violence for people forced to live in tents while the government continues cutting away their safety net…

🧵 My story, "What's Wrong With Rehab?" won Gold for Long-Form at Alberta Magazine Awards last night! Thanks to @albertaviews.bsky.social & all who shared expertise: Brandon Shaw, Esther Tailfeathers, @ehyshka.bsky.social, David Hodgins & recovery workers. 1/ albertaviews.ca/whats-wrong-...

Just learned @albertaviews.bsky.social editor Evan Osenton won Silver for Feature, making it a sweep on that category for Alberta Views. Still waiting on the full list but saw @amberbracken.bsky.social won Gold in photography & @omarmouallem.bsky.social emceed — wish I could’ve been there! 9/

All this reporting on My Recovery Plan since 2023 helps sketch out the UCP's playbook for building new machinery of exploitation. Personal data, health, basic necessities and life itself are commodities to be sold to the highest bidder. 7/ albertaviews.ca/whats-wrong-...

The silver lining was that Indigenous-run recovery centres could see where My Recovery Plan was headed, and refused to implement it. They said it didn't safeguard data according to data sovereignty agreements and it didn't contain culturally safe material. 6/ www.aptnnews.ca/national-new...

My Recovery Plan was launched via sole-source contracts, then pushed on recovery centres, whose continued funding hinged on implementing it. Clients were later forced to upload their data to access services. The app broke every rule governing Informed Consent. 4/ drugdatadecoded.ca/coercion-at-...
