Corporations have found a creepy new way to rip you off. It's called "surveillance pricing" and it's coming for all of us at the checkout if we don't stop it. Add your name and help stop retailers from price-gouging us with the help of Big Tech:

Public Service Announcement: When the price of gasoline jumps this week, remember it was refined from oil (mostly Canadian) produced weeks ago, only 2% of which comes from the Middle East. It's a policy choice, not 'market forces', that explains why you'll pay more (and oil profits will soar). /2

La réponse du Canada démontre pourquoi nous avons besoin du NPD : Poilievre applaudit Trump. Le gouvernement Carney est incapable de formuler un seul mot de critique. Peu importe ce que l'on pense de Maduro, le Canada ne peut pas être complice de cette violation flagrante du droit international.

Carney’s deal with Danielle Smith is the sellout of the century: scrapping climate legislation for a pipeline that will never be built. We need powerlines, not pipelines. Our path is through climate leadership & building good jobs in the clean economy.

Canada tabled sweeping legislation today to increase border security, incl powers to cancel or suspend immigration docs immediately, and huge crack downs on asylum applications While Canadians can feel smug about their nationalism in this tarriff-trade war, it's a pretext for anti-migrant control.

CRA penalties on RRSPs and TFSA are punitive attacks on the middle class. But when the system breaks down, CRA tells people, just fill out a "RC343 Worksheet to estimate their TFSA contribution room for the year". Who has time for that?
