Journalism empowers us with the truth and protects our democracy. In a world where it’s increasingly under threat, Canada continues to support a free and open press — and we are stronger for it. #WorldPressFreedomDay

I just keep thinking about this. Ford loves to pound people to shit and strut across their political bodies. All the name calling. The Lefties. Socialists. Cyclists. Gravy eaters. But he whines like a high maintenance nepo when something doesn't go his way. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Having a miserable day, anyone tell me something good..?

What it is Like to Accidentally be Trapped in a Country at War By Zack Davisson Hey! You seen on the news of evacuation orders for Americans whose vacation was suddenly disrupted by a little war as a treat? Well, it happened to me too. Gather round for story time! Destination, EGYPT!!! (1)

Actually no, I’m not going to hope for any good news anymore

It's time! Nominations are now open for the 2026 Ursula K. Le Guin Prize for Fiction, which will be given to a work of imaginative fiction, published in 2025, that reflects the concepts and ideas that were central to Ursula’s own work.

Guys, we have flipped from the corruption-maxxxing timeline to the anti-corruption-maxxxing timeline..

You need to hear the goal call in Inuktitut.

Bruce Fanjoy has launched a petition to require all federal party leaders to obtain and maintain top security clearance. It's open for a couple of months. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

The risk to North American auto manufacturing is North America's auto manufacturers not keeping up with what global consumers want. You've had tens of billions of dollars in subsidies and supports shovelled at you. Compete or die.

159 Canadians gave their lives in Afghanistan. From Privates (46) to Colonels (1). 97 died from explosives. 22 died from direct fire. 13 died from suicide attacks. 24 from non-enemy attacks. 3 from suicide. 44 units/formations lost someone.

This can have consequences for how agents see themselves. If they put on clothes designed for war, they are more likely to see cities as hostile terrain and citizens as enemy combatants, which can increase the chance of violence. Link to the story here: www.politico.com/news/magazin...

UPDATE: Now, 215 Minneapolis General Strike solidarity actions are being held around the country. This could create serious momentum for strikes in other cities where ICE attacks. paydayreport.com/minneap/

Also, A Wizard of Earthsea exists and is infinitely better. Highly recommend LeGuin. There’s also a ton of fantasy written by BIPOC and LGBTQ authors worth reading too. NK Jemison for adults. But for an HP replacement, Earthsea hands down.

Do not confuse power for strength. The so-called powerless may have more strength, more courage, and more honor than any autocrat. A true warrior sees to it that the despot will come to fear that strength, and their power will falter before it.

It's always surreal to see the size of mammoth fish that people can pull out of Lake Ontario from the downtown shoreline with the CN Tower in the background

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.

‘Cancel’ comes from a Latin word meaning “to make like a lattice.” When people needed to annul or void a document, they sometimes would mark it with crosshatches XXXXX which resembled a lattice. So the document became ‘canceled.’ ...we hope this post doesn’t get us that.

Happy New Year to new acquaintances and old!

As many of us begin Christmas meal prep, allow me to share the advice that my ER nurse sister puts in the chat every year: A dropped knife has no handle. Jump away. Let it fall. You can pick it up and wash it.
