Christmas is a-coming!

Hard to believe this is real but it is — do better, Time 😕

As the fall session wraps up, Elizabeth May breaks down the massive omnibus bills pushed through Parliament and Prime Minister Carney’s increasingly CEO-style approach to governing. Watch now:

ChatGPT cleans up hard drive to procrastinate writing your boring essay

Non merci. Voilà la porte.

I thought this was The Onion. It should be. It's not.

We should just do universal basic income and stop with the 5,000 variants of who to give economic security to.

'Rooting for milk' timeline!! I approve.

New legislation in Quebec takes aim at a union’s right to strike, while other legislation looks to attack union funding. #canlab rabble.ca/labour/quebe...

Buy a book. Any book, it doesn't matter which. The one you've been looking forward to, the one with the title that made you laugh, the weighty award-winner you've been meaning to get to. Whatever. Treat yourself. Step away from it all. In this time of gross ignorance & madness, read something.

George Retes is an American citizen and veteran who was unjustly pepper-sprayed, arrested, and imprisoned for three days by ICE. Yet he won't be intimidated by this lawless administration. He's speaking up and telling his story as part of a new $250k @ofthebraveusa.bsky.social campaign. 👇

It's decided. Europe is closing the tap on Russian fossil fuels once and for all. Energy independence starts now. → link.europa.eu/tykVJf

There's a petition asking the Assemblée Nationale to repeal this law before we lose even more doctors: m.assnat.qc.ca/fr/exprimez-...

This thread. It's why "every billionaire is a policy failure" (Oxfam, 2023). 1/2

Remember when Amazon held a sale during Independent Bookstore Day in an effort to undercut indie bookstores? We didn’t forget. Support local bookstores during Small Business Saturday and beyond.

Remember that every dollar in the bank account of a billionaire like Bezos, Zuckerberg, or Musk came from the pockets of people like us. Start taking it back.

Good for him! 🪶🙌🏽 www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Fifteen Years xkcd.com/3172/

Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

Gender-based violence is preventable. During these 16 Days of Activism and every day, let’s learn, listen, and take action because ending violence takes all of us. #16DaysofActivism

Another good reason for Canadians not to buy US food.

A major healthcare policy paper commissioned by @govnl.bsky.social government from Deloitte at a cost of $1.6 million, cites research papers that don’t exist, making it the second major government policy paper called into question in as many months. #nlpoli #AI theindependent.ca/news/lji/maj...

🎵 “Join Ice” - @wellesmusic on Colbert

My favorite piece of content today.

You tell 'em, Elizabeth May!

The Carney government wants to pare back aspects of Canada’s anti-greenwashing law, telling @meyer.bsky.social it prevents the fossil fuel industry and other groups from sharing their environmental claims. Critics say the law might be working as intended. thenarwhal.ca/greenwashing...

After 20 years in the Navy, Buzz Grambo thought he'd spend his retirement playing video games and watching baseball. Instead, he patrols the streets of Baltimore to protect his neighbors from ICE. He even upgraded his scooter to a Segway that reaches 26 mph to keep up with the agents. My latest:

These posters started popping up ahead of next week’s We Ain’t Buying It boycott. From Nov 27 - Dec 1, folks are stepping back from corporate chains like Target, Home Depot, and Amazon. People are done being squeezed, so they are using the leverage of their wallets 💥

“Quiet, Piggy” would be fitting for his tombstone.

Whenever I see "use AI or get left behind" I remember this children's poem by Grigori Oster: If you ever want to get ahead of your peers, Never chase after those Who are currently leading. In five minutes, disappointed, they will run back this way, Not having moved, you will be in the lead.

Nice! Montreal ranks as the number one bicycle-friendly city in North America!

My specialty is stylistic editing of academic articles.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

62 stolen artifacts are returned to Canadian Indigenous peoples by the Vatican. But they still have*hundreds of thousands* more, from all over the world.

Quel bordel

The obscene wealth of the world's billionaires doesn't just mean they get to lead lives of luxury. It also means they have almost complete control of the economy — control that is fundamentally undemocratic and unjust.

We absolutely need universal basic income as a secure floor below which no one can fall and everyone can build from. It should not be normalized for people to seek 2nd, 3rd, and 4th jobs in order to make enough money to survive or have a backup plan in case of unexpected job and income loss.

PBS did us a solid and dropped the whole Epstein emails. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

It’s day 2 at the UN Climate Summit #COP30. Our Senior Movement Building and Activism Officer Tyrone Scott shares we should be keeping our eyes on over the next two weeks. Keep an eye on our channels for more content.

Surprise! Winter has arrived in Montreal far too early.

The CAQ seems hellbent on causing lasting damage before they lose the next election.

Dictatorship isn’t sustained by strength, but by exhaustion, by people too broken & afraid to resist. It devours energy to maintain its illusion of order. Every act of refusal, every choice to remember, withdraws power from its grasp. Collapse begins when obedience ends. Last night was a great start
