Seems the Government of Canada is shutting down social media accounts. I'm disappointed... every opportunity to inform the public should be embraced, not shut-down. Especially for weather which impacts everyone.

What does Venezuela possess that the U.S would be interested in controling? What does Nigeria possess that the U.S would be interested in controling? Venezuela has the world's largest proven oil reserves. Nigeria is Africa's largest oil producer. Remember Iraq? Don’t fall for the okie dokie.

Dal Tentative Agreement Passed Ratification Vote! 85.5% of members voted YES.

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs. Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker. Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps. Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

“The initial newspaper reports mentioned the names of the white crew members, but only referred to the Mexican passengers as ‘deportees.’ That lack of recognition moved Woody Guthrie to write a song …” www.kqed.org/news/1194127...

Universities are moving rapidly to comply with laws that don't exist.

Hey @markcarneyforpm.bsky.social do not cut research funding in Canada: we must protect our innovation and research and can’t go the route of the US. @caut.bsky.social @ansut.bsky.social @smufu.bsky.social

“What’s happening at Dalhousie, what’s happening in contract negotiations at other universities ... is that faculty are trying as best they can to raise concerns about how the quality of education has really suffered because of lack of public funding,” Robinson said. #cdnpse #nspse #KeepCanadaStrong

gofund.me/a3de78e87 My PhD student died suddenly. He is survived by a wife and 5 daughters in Kampala, Uganda. Pls consider a donation of any amount to help them with their school fees.

The one-sided and propaganda-style emails going out to all @dalhousie.bsky.social students and staff (except the @dalfaculty.bsky.social ) is so short sighted. How about the Uni ‘leaders’ communicate with the DFA and settle this properly?! #KeepDalStrong

Such an amazing show of solidarity! Reps from 20 faculty associations from coast to coast came to join the fight. The Board at @dalhousieu.bsky.social is not just fighting 1000 DFA members - they’re fighting an entire army. #keepdalstrong

The kids are ok. #KeepDalStrong www.reddit.com/r/Dalhousie/...

We are in solidarity with our colleagues at @dalfaculty.bsky.social Your fight is our fight. And a word for the SMU BOG Exec: this is a good learning lesson in how not to work with the unions. We hope you're taking notes.

SMUFU has just made a 2nd $1000 donation to @dalfaculty.bsky.social This unprecedented action of a hostile employer, eroding every pillar of collegial governance, will be met with the resolve and solidarity of the academic labour movement across the nation. #SolidarityForever #KeepDalStrong

Summary of rainfall so far this summer. Blue areas are the driest. Some of those areas have only received 1/4 of the normal rainfall which is quite substantial for such a long period (the better part of a season). Note eastern Nfld where there are currently fires. #nswx #nlwx
