I am ABSOLUTELY FURIOUS about this. #Ottawa ottawacitizen.com/news/ocdsb-c...

Imperial boomerang: for centuries, Europeans have framed tech to protect against cold (fire, furnaces) as noble and good, while they’ve framed the warm climates they colonized as full of lazy people (Asians, Africans) and, thus, the need to use AC or fans as frivaloues, wasteful & unnecessary

the one pride billboard in southern manitoba (rural bible belt region, one of the towns only just had their first-ever pride march last week) was vandalized a few days ago, so they made tshirts of it. lmfao gettem

The truth is that fewer guns and stricter legislation around guns, ammunition, and accessories decreases the amount of gun violence. Just because the US refuses to act on those facts doesn’t mean that we cannot act today here in Canada. We can and should demand more policy action. #cdnpoli

“As public schools struggle to deliver the physical education kids need,” writes @rachelgiese.bsky.social, “a massive industry around competitive, specialized youth sports has taken root.” thelocal.to/youth-sports...

As a mother and Canadian, I want this technology BANNED in Canada @evansolomon.bsky.social @mark-carney.bsky.social. This is unconscionable to allow this AI technology to be used in the abuse of children. Take action NOW. #Canada #cdnpoli

This episode was really superb, and Katie Mendes' policy suggestions for how to regulate social media to make it safer for every one is what @mark-carney.bsky.social and @evansolomon.bsky.social should be implementing. #cdnpoli #canada #socialmediaban

Ok welcome to DC vibe check walk, second annual Trump’s birthday edition part 2

Mamdani feels so refreshing because he's **an emotionally regulated man** who is unthreatened by other people. Related: watching a gregarious public servant connect with other people and express joy and pleasure at helping is a gift.

Canadian man who hangs outside local elementary schools attempting to engage passersby in conversations about puberty says he has been arrested by Spanish police

The way humans are hardwired for art and community makes me so happy. Don’t ever let anyone tell you we’re not. Congrats NY 🥰

Six months after Australia’s youth social media ban, other countries are already learning lessons to better address platform harms. Legislation in Brazil and Canada pairs age limits with design standards, including an opt out if platforms are “safe by design.” It’s not perfect, but it’s progress.

Canada: a separate country that Americans don't know anything about. (Also Canada: a place where smug Canadians neglect our own politics and govt accountability because we are busy smirking about not being American. Think bigger, Canadians!)

Elon Musk’s Grok chatbot is apparently still being used to produce and host nonconsensual explicit images and videos of women, months after Musk’s AI firm xAI said it would introduce restrictions to stop the creation of potentially harmful sexualized deepfakes.

If you need a script for getting your company off Twitter, I WROTE YOU ONE. Multiple people have used it, successfully, to explain the legal liability your company incurs by forcing employees to be on a platform with child sexual abuse material. I will help you use it. anildash.com/2026/02/23/t...

And rightfully fucking so! Blatantly racist US policy should cause global uproar. This anti-Black, anti-African policy is shameful and the US should immediately reverse course. #cdnpoli

AI won’t change your baby’s diaper. AI won’t feed your Grandma in a nursing home. AI won’t hug your sibling when they’re heartbroken. AI will not displace care work, and care work is some of the most valuable of all human labor. Let’s value care work accordingly. #FuckAI #cdnpoli #Canada

If you are in line to boo Donald Trump, STAY IN LINE

Tell me you don’t understand the difference between the governance systems of two countries without telling me you don’t understand the governance systems of two countries 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Been using AI in my professional life and the promises made about it have absolutely not come true. Until the accuracy and sustainability are improved this technology is mid at best. (@tressiemcphd.bsky.social called this months ago) @evansolomon.bsky.social Canadians don’t want unregulated AI.

The Dallas Brodie recall campaign is set up to take signatures today at the Dunbar Community Centre if you’re interested in seeing her go and an eligible Vancouver-Quilchena voter. #bcpoli

This week's The Hatchet with @arshy.bsky.social and @breachmedia.ca with @desmondcole.bsky.social and El Jones podcasts are excellent paired listenings about the unacceptable lack of police oversight and accountability in Canada. #AbolitionNow podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

happy Pride Eve to all the people who are about to paraphrase this tweet from 2022 or repost it with my name removed as if it’s a thought they just had themselves

Veterinary medicine is like what if you could pet math and then poke it with a needle.

So JP Morgan is behind the Billy Bishop expansion push, but the people it hired to lobby all levels of government didn’t disclose it in the lobbyist registries. From @rwarnica.bsky.social: www.thestar.com/opinion/star...

Return-to-office policies at this time make no sense. We don’t have the transit capacity, we don’t have the office space, we don’t have the parking. Losing this greenspace – meant for recreation and physical health – to parking because of RTO is sad.

1. Caste. Most people in the west don’t understand that the waves of engineers and doctors who immigrated out of India in the 70s and onwards were ‘high’ caste folks, who resented the Indian equivalent of affirmative action for caste. Caste solidarity is very powerful…/

It’s time to shrug off the doom and gloom and REBUILD CANADA’s QUEER MOVEMENT. That’s why Queer Momentum, Fierte Canada Pride and TransAction Alberta are teaming up to power the Trans Canada Tour - our injection of hope in an era of hate.

Another tragic case of road violence. If you drive a car, SLOW DOWN. Everyone just wants to get home to their loved ones at the end of the day. I really hope that the pedestrian who was struck recovers. Walking on the sidewalk shouldn’t be a life threatening experience. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Every time I see someone talk about Claude I think about how they switched from female to male names as soon as they wanted the robots to seem like experts vs personal assistants.

still can’t believe that given the choice between “bountiful, free, clean energy from the earth, wind, and sun” and “poisonous dead animal sludge price sensitive to global politics” we keep choosing the latter
