I'm speechless. I can't find the words to describe how awful this is. A humiliation for the United States.

When our children ask what we did as Gaza was systematically destroyed and its children killed, what will we say? It is our generation’s moral test. Canada is failing it. #Opinion

“No fat soldiers." That’s one unit-level message that was sent out as the 82nd Airborne Division worked to tightly control who was permitted to attend Trump’s speech at Fort Bragg, reports Military.com www.military.com/daily-news/2...

As a firm believer in unscheduled summers for my own kids (and a Gen Xer who didn't know there was any other way of spending those glorious two months), I love this piece

It is not clear why Trump repeatedly claims the US subsidizes Canada by $200 billion a year. A trade deficit isn’t a subsidy — but in any event, the US trade deficit in goods and services with Canada last year was about $36 billion. Here’s the data (source: US govt)

Carney to Trump: "There are some places that are never for sale ... having met with the owners of Canada over the course of the campaign, it's not for sale. It won't be for sale ever."

One of Pope Francis’ “popemobiles” is being transformed into a mobile healthcare unit for children and sent to the Gaza Strip, the Vatican’s official media outlet said on Sunday. cnn.it/3GG2TnN

Doug Ford’s Spa of Cards is international news. This dive-in-the-making, if it ever gets made, is costing the province Ontario Place, The Ontario Science Centre and untold (in fact undisclosed) millions.

Just clarifying, though this is not difficult to grasp: Anyone working on an industry project with a notorious transphobic bigot is OK with transphobic bigotry. The end.

On this day in 1979, British troops & the Royal Navy left Malta (Malta gained independence in 1964).

"On Canary Mission’s website, Ozturk’s profile included a photo of her as well as a description of the region where she lives. The page also featured screenshots of the op-ed and her LinkedIn page as well as descriptions of college courses that she was slated to teach this year."

For our April issue, @trevorcole.bsky.social sat down with AGT Foods CEO Murad Al-Katib, who stares down tariffs and trade restrictions on the regular, for an insightful conversation on how Canada can turn the trade war into an opportunity. I promise it'll give you hope

I know it bothers you as much as it does me that journalism as an institution can’t process that what it’s seeing on a daily basis is evil people doing evil sh*t Not incompetence, not naivete, not negligence, not mispeaking, not mixups, not miscommunications: straight-up evil people doing evil sh*t

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

‘I thought I was going to die’: director Hamdan Ballal recounts attack by settlers and soldiers in West Bank

Save the Children says more than 270 Palestinian children have been killed in the week since Israel resumed its war on Gaza, marking some of “the deadliest days for children since the war began”. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/2q97hr

They fucking disappeared Hamdan Ballal. Sheer impunity, knowing the US isn't going to say shit. "As he was being treated in an ambulance, soldiers detained him and a second Palestinian man, the [Center for Jewish Nonviolence] said. It said his whereabouts were now unknown."

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.

Agencies within the Trump administration have flagged hundreds of words to limit or avoid, according to a compilation of government documents. These terms appeared in government memos, in official and unofficial agency guidance and in other documents. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Oh hey, it's me with a somewhat sunny Editor's Note in this gloomy time.

Deciding to rename bases after Civil War generals and to retail Putin's fictions about Ukraine in the same month really displays the depth of his commitment to his country's most violent enemies
