Canadian provinces are defunding universities here. So short sighted.

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second. We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

Here’s the best conspiracy theory about the US economy I’ve heard. substack.com/@jennbudd/no...

Yikes

Looks likely. And it’s shortsighted. Multiplier effects are found in almost every peer reviewed study of investment in the inclusion of women and queer people. Also, don’t forget people living with disabilities: the Government of Canada is.

On the eve of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, Pierre Poilievre spoke out for the group he says faces the most hate-based violence. Um, and apparently that group is…Christians? (It isn’t). I called for backup on this one. Luckily @pampalmater.com answered:

Yesterday, history happened at the UN: For the first time hundreds of orgs signed a global pledge declaring that healthy indoor air is a human right. Healthy indoor air is a key tool for preventing pandemics, building climate resilience, and increasing health equity. We need it everywhere!

This is perfect. www.instagram.com/reel/DITps6N...

Not all the damage we get from #COVID infections is visible e.g blood vessel damage but this can cause serious health problems. All children are at risk of this and for the life of me I can’t understand the lack of action on preventing this awful infection. 🧵

The gloom spreads. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Overcrowded cells. Unsanitary conditions. Limited access to food and water. These are the conditions that ICE has created at 26 Federal Plaza, which eleven elected officials sought to expose. Instead, they were arrested. They must be released right now — and inspectors let in.

Oh we got context for this now that is awesome! #WRUGBY #RUGBY #WRWC2025 #RWC2025

Would you smoke just because all your friends do, even though you know it could kill you a couple of decades early? Then why expose yourself to covid? www.notesforfriends.com/p/covid-isnt...

I just saw a TikTok (!) about this paper. Looking forward to reading it. We need a new index of relevancy and consequence to reflect a paper’s presence in FYPs.

The lexicon used by climate misinformers has changed, and "‘New Denial’ is bent on condemning solutions to climate change and their supporters." Researchers found the most prevalent climate-related terms on Twitter/X from 2021-2023 and shared their results below. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Teen Vogue is on top of it all.

The Catholic Church in Rome has been insisting on calling attention to the suffering in Gaza, even if you don't hear much about it stateside. Seven hours of names: 16 Israeli children and 12,211 Palestinian children.

A voice that weaponized scripture has gone quiet. Dr. James Dobson, founder of Focus on the Family, Family Research Council, & Family Policy Alliance, has died today at the age of 89. May the thousands of children and those within the LGBTQ community that suffered find some sparks of peace today.

Income inequality hit record high at start of 2025, Statistics Canada says. Gap increased each year following start of COVID-19 pandemic... 🧵 www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Canadian entrepreneur Avi Bryant sold his startup to Twitter, made millions, and now wants higher taxes on the wealthy to lower inequality. He backs basic income, nonprofit housing, and land value tax. Because Canada invested in him—and it’s time to give back. macleans.ca/politics/tax...

Where is the Canadian program for recruiting scientists who need to move? This Australian ad is impressive.

This is so overwhelming.

BREAKING: Scientists are staging a “science fair” in the lobby of a Congressional building to tell elected officials about the critical knowledge the US will lose because their research grants have been canceled.

Rogers, one of the biggest media companies in Canada, built a stadium out of 50K bleacher seats. Tonight’s Coldplay gig reveals an embarrassing failure. Ticketmaster sent an email [warning] that cellular reception…. “will be limited as this is a large-capacity venue.”

In a horrifying article about the dangers of Teslas, one point stands out: Teslas automatically disengage self-driving mode <1 second before an imminent crash--not enough time for the driver to react, but enough for Tesla to deny responsibility for fatal crashes, since self-driving "wasn't engaged."

That was fast. www.ctvnews.ca/world/trumps...
