🇨🇦😡 MAGA Targets Residential School History to Drive Hate open.substack.com/pub/charliea...

I realize healthcare is a provincial jurisdiction, but the feds give billions of dollars to the provinces for healthcare. It's clear it's being mishandled, under funded and zero accountability from what I see. I think it's time for the federal government to blast the Premiers and hold to account.

From CBC News #NovaScotia #Canada President Zelenskyy meets with Prime Minister Carney in Halifax

Doug Ford has plenty of public funds for beer and highways but hospitals need private donations due to underfunding of public healthcare 😵‍💫 www.cbc.ca/news/marketp...

“It is now expected to cost double what was initially projected. Metrolinx has 118 VPs getting paid an average of $243,000. 118. That’s not a typo. Doug Ford’s government has wasted billions while communities like Little Jamaica bear the cost.” #CorruptFord #InvestigateFord

This #StripperGate is deeply concerning to me - from the aspect of my taxpayer money being used in the “hospitality” industry but also with concerns it may end up being tied to the huge human trafficking problem we have in Ontario. I think there should be a huge investigation into how $10M was used.

I don't think most Americans have any idea how dangerous it is for a president to declare an entire ethnic group to be "garbage." This is how the worst atrocities in human history have begun.

If this is true, it is the most impeachable offense ever.

This message hits hard.

Carney's Canada.

The Trump-Zelenskyy meeting has been rescheduled to 1pm ET on Sunday. Zelenskyy expects EU leaders to join the talks via online conference (no idea how this works since they said it’s all in front of the media). Today, Ze met with Carney, later they held an online conference with the EU leaders.

“This is an exceptional yr. This H3N2 variant that we have seen circulating through Canada seems to be more severe, and therefore people are getting unwell and need to come into the hospital, more so than previous yrs. It just makes our jobs so much harder to provide the good care we want to do.”

I've been asked by 3 media outlets in the last week to do interviews on the influenza season. I still haven't seen our new CMOH, appointed Dec 18th, (or old one, for that matter. Or any public health official) in the media on this topic. For the record, they are acutally paid, to do this. 1/2

The only review needed is an inquiry into Danielle Smith’s efforts to wreck public healthcare so her, King Harper and their greedy cronies can privatize. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The surrounding Arctic waters and #Greenland's territory potentially hold significant undiscovered oil and gas, estimated in the billions of barrels by the USGS. Fet the pattern get? #Venezuela, #Nigeria, #Greenland. #oil and Canada is on the list. @anitaoakvilleeast.bsky.social

Anyone paying even the slightest bit of attention could see that was happening.

🇨🇦Political control over ancient sites sparks alarm in Ontario. This effectively moves the power to protect or destroy historical sites from scientific experts to political decision-makers. #Onpoli #Cdnpoli #CanadaSky🇨🇦 www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

This would be an excellent time for Ontario to have not stayed home while a clutch of spiral-eyed loonies voted in a folksy mobster with a grudge to settle against higher education. But they did. And now we're ill-equipped to offer U.S.'s science refugees safe harbour.

During attack on December 27, lasting for nearly 10 hours, Russia deployed almost 500 drones and 40 missiles on Ukraine. Many residential buildings and critical infrastructure objects became targets, being directly hit by Russia. (via united24.media / Threads) 🌻🇺🇦Slava Ukraini. Heroiam Slava🇺🇦🌻

Gift suggestion thread plugging my stuff, for those in Halifax and beyond. Into fermentation? My book Adventures in Bubbles and Brine has fascinating history, fun interviews, and recipes to get started. Available where you get books. Here's an indie link: kingsbookstore.ca/item/PQoWAFz...

Sat. the 27th, still lounging around, having a sweet whenever, eating excellent leftovers, warm and cosy with my heat pump, and 2 bags of library books! When I wake up to the political world, will Poilievre be the story until his leadership vote? Will Zelensky find peace at the White House?

First-ever US airstrikes in Nigeria put the second Trump admin’s 2025 combat actions at: —Nigeria—tonight’s strikes —Yemen—1,000+ strikes (Mar-Apr) —Somalia—120 strikes, 1 ground raid —Syria—78+ strikes, 3 ground raids —Caribbean—11 strikes —Eastern Pacific—20 strikes —Iran—3 strikes —Iraq—1 strike

Texas Universities are now like police departments who would prefer to pay out the inevitable lawsuits rather than stop breaking the law

US bombed Nigeria in what Trump says was an effort to protect Christians. Violence in Nigeria is widespread, not anti-Christian specifically, and the US strikes won't accomplish anything lasting. But it appeals to his evangelical base even as he persecutes other Christians. New from me in @ms.now:

Social media is already prepared to destroy people, and now add in AI lies.

Embracing AI will kill news orgs. It's not even arguable.

This is the problem with all those text over photos with no link for verification posts: you can't tell if it's bullshit or not. So, no link to a reputable site? Consider it fake.

Cameron, talking about Avatar 3, described the Palestinian situation as a matter of survival. He noted that there are circumstances like Palestine in which resistance is justified, particularly when people are facing complete destruction, describing such struggles as fundamentally existential.

Foreign doctors/nurses shunning the NHS because anti-migrant rhetoric, rising racism have created “a hostile environment”. Successive UK govts have failed to provide local supply, raided other countries. Without immigration UK economy/services will decline. Still no honest debate.

Been in a couple of them near the Power Center. By the book. Honest. Friendly. Armstrong needs a new pet project. #nspoli

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Theres a foolish impulse by legacy media that if & when they cover most stories, it’s simply time to move on. Trump’s ceaseless corruption, criminality, cognitive decline & compulsive, narcissistic hatred gets glossed over in the process. I for one won’t move on until he’s gone & held accountable.
