"According to Statistics Canada data, the number of Canadian residents coming back from the U.S. by car in August dropped a stunning 34 per cent compared to the same month last year."

It made no impact.

The president said, in a televised speech, that he's sending his new, less restrained, more violent military into US cities to practice their brutality on immigrants and minorities, to better train them to apply that brutality to other countries. He said this out loud.

SCOOP/UPDATE — The White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) instructed *all* federal agencies to send out the shutdown email with NO modifications permitted, a federal source confirmed. Leadership received these orders via email at 1:30pm ET and then reinforced on a 3pm intra-agency call.

Hey hey, ho ho. Let's go Buffalo!!!

Look, I sympathize. But if you don't have the document and you're going off a press release you got, you have to say it. And if you have the document, you HAVE to upload and link it. Jesus Christ.

I’ll become a citizen of the 51st State when you pry this poutine and Tragically Hip CD from my cold frozen mittens.

Ta-Nehisi is arguing for taking a stand and advocating for what you believe in. Not denigrating someone you disagree with. But focus on what you believe in and model it. If you act in ways that are not conducive to what you believe in, you lose every time. You can not be what you are not.

"Then in 2024, we really got our [expletive] handed to us, and we let a much more dangerous form of politics fully erupt. And I think that reflects strategic decisions they made. I think it reflects decisions we made." No. You lost a popular vote 77 million to 75 million. That's fatalistic.

i love ta-nehisi coates so much

Since the Ezra & Ta-Nehisi discussion is still happening: the main point I think most are missing is that Klein is saying the role of the journalist-intellectual is to do strategic politics, whereas Coates says the role of the journalist-intellectual is to tell the truth

Hey BC journos — anyone else struggling with remote access to court proceedings? I used to get call-in info early morning. Now I'm told it needs judge's approval. Today, I've been waiting an hour. Still nothing. Access needs to be consistent, not crossing fingers and hoping to get in.

A pattern is developing where everyone who fights back against a Trump attack inevitably wins with their reputation much better than before, and everyone who caves to him looks like shit and has Trump coming back for more a month later.

The Lilith Fair documentary is great, and also the section on the protests and bomb threats about pro-choice is just a reminder that the people who complain about “cancel culture” have been terrorizing women and Americans for decades. And now they run the country.

This was likely the most interesting session at #UBCM2025. There is a lot of misinformation out about this case, but the short version advice is “this may be the biggest court decision in B.C. history, *but* let’s not panic, let’s instead take the time to understand it & negotiate reconciliation.”

Could ask the essential question: is the fire service profitable? Is ambulance service profitable? Since when does governments cloak themselves in profitability? We don't elect private business.

The new baseball trade deadline move is to sell even if you are contending. So many sellers made vast improvements after July 31st. The Guardians sold Bieber to the Jays, got a young prospect back. Bieber has been meh and the Jays awful for the past two weeks. And the Guardians can still playoffs!

Hi hello. The Guardians can clinch a playoff berth today! with: a win AND a HOU loss

It's quaint when young people say "when you were kids, you were outside playing." No. I was spending hours playing Madden and NHL.

You know I barely survived. If I wasn’t so fit that escalator would’ve killed us. I know a lot about escalators. Probably more than anyone. Melania was in danger. Terrible danger. It just stopped. Terrible. We had to walk up a flight of stairs. I’m not sure how we made it. Just very brave I suppose.

I imagine being the reporter when assignment visits your desk. "What do you mean the CN Tower isn't on fire? I can see that it is not." "Yeah, but people are claiming it is online." "So what? I thought we reported on what was happening, not what isn't happening." "Game has changed, son."
