Demands for the private sector to take over government services are usually because someone wants to make a profit from the service, and has promised taxpayers 'private sector efficiency' will make it cheaper. (Private sector efficiency means pay workers less and/or provide less service).

This! @thegameovernetwork.com

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

Rachael Thomas is a liar & hypocrite I didn't make light of Charlie Kirk's death I said he can go to hell & that those who preach violence are responsible for it Thomas claims to defend free speech while insinuating @cultmtl.com should be defunded #cdnpoli #cdnmedia cultmtl.com/2025/09/rach...

Capitalists like to conflate capitalism with commerce, because if you can’t even imagine a world without their system, they’ve already won.

Mark Carney's palestine statement received little critical analysis by #Canada's mainstream media, further evidence there's no room for scrutiny of Canada's foreign policy, particularly when it comes to Israel/Palestine Latest canaduh.substack.com #cdnpoli canaduh.substack.com/p/everything...

Wake me up when Sid is a Hab

That's what drives me nuts. Canada Post isn't "losing money", it costs money.

Quick breakdown of how government services work: Govt creates service Service costs money to run Taxpayers shoulder costs of service collectively Economy of scale and lack of profit motive allows service to meet more needs, cost less than market options. Citizens and businesses benefit.

And they are. It’s not just a claim.

Well don't I feel stupid

Craig Sauvé: “There were a lot of things that I wasn’t convinced about in Projet Montréal... The party has become a bit technocratic and it’s become disconnected with the citizenry. And that’s a problem for any government, any administration.” Read more at: www.montrealgazette.com/news/local-p...

“Canada Post doesn’t make money” That’s because it’s saving YOU money. And especially saving small businesses money. Because they deliver above market standard performance for below standard market investment. Look at the size of this country. It’s not there to MAKE money.

here's the same article at Lakeland Today without the paywall www.lakelandtoday.ca/beyond-local...

tired of stealing from the fans, Oilers now stealing from charities too theijf.org/oilers-50-50...

Killing Canada Post will destroy a lot of small businesses in Canada, by the way. Not to mention the ripple effect this will have on the labour market.

When is the last time a politician in Canada told you their vision for the future of the country? Not something as vague as being inclusive, but an actual plan to improve things for subsequent generations? Long term thinking?

Ever notice that it’s always the independent people who have way more to lose that take stands like this? Massive respect for you, @hockeyinheels.bsky.social

Canada Post is uniquely positioned to be the vector for both high speed rail, and taking couriered delivery service out of the hands of companies like Amazon. But instead the capitalist cowards in charge are cutting it and screwing us all.

Some news: I will no longer be covering the Carolina Hurricanes after two seasons. Here’s why. hockeyinheels.com/post/7956838...

I stand with Kat in this. Very similar feelings leading to my disappointment and consequent disregard of my Anaheim Ducks home team. They are dead to me until they oust Q (and even then, they'll still be barely twitching).

Relax, chill out. We’ve got lots of time. We’re not winning the Stanley Cup in the first exhibition game

If you’re upset about the score of a preseason game, just ask yourself what Carey Price would say.

Or watching your loved ones ending up in a for profit retirement home, which a lot of ex-politicians are on their BOD or part owners, eating away at your life savings.

Just wait. He will. You think all the richest Canadians have been investing in private health care infrastructure for no reason? That premiers have bent over backwards to break the healthcare system despite us living through a once-in-a-century pandemic by accident?

The Canadian Justice system loses $20 billion year. The Canadian military loses $34 billion a year. Canadian Health Care loses $372 billion a year. Imagine if Carneys liberals talked about services like it does the Post Office.

Good. Fight.

Sports are political

Some people here love to dismiss ‘sportsball’ but S. African teams being banned from international competition was an important factor in ending Apartheid because it made their crimes real for non-political folk.

@robertbrice.bsky.social You ever do the graphic audiobooks for the red rising series?

For the Western front, this is pretty accurate. The power balance of empires shifted during that time, capitalism collapsed in on itself… what year is it?

Not ALL of high school. But also in university.

Zero chance Ensemble Montréal does anything positive about homelessness while attacking bike lanes and running genocide denier candidates.

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Just a reminder that @thegameovernetwork.com Calgary is BACK for preseason action! It's 1-1 against the Seattle Kraken, with Yegor Sharangovich having the flames lone marker! We'll be with you shortly after today's game. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EycR...

As I wrote last year: “At this point, it’s safe to assume that Ford and his government are content with their policies killing Ontarians. Moves like this that are concretely shown to result in people’s deaths constitutes a knowing act of social murder.”

Considering that people were convinced on TikTok that the rapture was going to happen yesterday, I see Peter Thiel’s threat of the antichrist if we regulate or stop AI as cravenly profiting off the back of religious psychosis that has a. Gripped many people and b. Is worsened by ChatGPT-style tech

You want good Flames talk? Hang with Conrad and Anand for great analysis, honest perspectives, and sometimes Conrad is a prophet. Game Over Calgary is your postgame hang with a welcoming atmosphere, an interactive environment, it’s fun!

We’re hearing that Mathieu Olivier is right there too. Les boys du Québéc sont fort.
