Mark Carnage. Every day a new story about how he's asset stripping Canada and selling it for parts.

I predict that this will be an absolutely horrible thing for society. Now where is my bazillion dollars?

This article also broke my brain, but in a different (good?) way.

There are important lessons to be learned here for Canada's NDP. I think we're finally learning them at the federal level.

Jet Dreams on Toronto Island. Read part 1 of @iandarragh.bsky.social's investigation into what would it cost, who will pay, and who benefits? With a new graphic custom-made for Spacing detailing the likely extension. spacing.ca/toronto/2026...

More evidence that Mark Carney is a lying liar who tells Canadians one thing, while doing the exact opposite.

I’m running for City Council in Parkdale—High Park. I’m running because our neighbours deserve a councillor who has walked alongside them, fought for them, and knows how to turn community demands into real wins at City Hall. Join me at www.dianachanmcnally.ca.

NEW: The Ford government’s changes to freedom of information laws could leave key questions about the purchase of a private jet unanswered, as critics argue the Progressive Conservatives are rewriting legislation to “protect the king.” #OnPoli globalnews.ca/news/1180919...

Key questions: "who suggested the idea of purchasing a private jet to the premier, or what arguments were made in favour, is unclear. When Ford signed off on the plan, and who he met to discuss it with is also a mystery."

It's so frustrating that the media are falling for Ford's effort to hide his govt's corruption by dangling this stupid buying/selling a jet story in front of them. Yes, the jet is newsworthy, but the story that actually matters is this ramming through FOI limits: toronto.citynews.ca/2026/04/22/f...

Last summer, I received a manuscript in the mail from a 32-year-old man who wanted to tell me the story of his psychosis -- how close he came to killing his dad, and how, when it passed, they put the pieces of their relationship back together. Here it is. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/29/s...

the "study" he says is by the University of Alberta is actually by THE GOVERNMENT OF ALBERTA and it is EXTREMELY PROBLEMATIC and the authors are very good friends and donors to the UCP please read this thread www.cp24.com/video/2026/0...

We need to end prediction markets for government action. NOW. This bone chilling story about a reporter’s life threatened bc he simply reported on Iran missile strikes: “After you make us lose $900,000 we will invest no less than that to finish you.”

It is *fascinating* to me how quickly some people have gone completely from “we all must work in the office! human collaboration is vital and only happens in person!” to “I can replace all these pesky people with chatbots!” Definitely some commentary there about our society and who gets to choose.

This is monstrous.

The Trump administration is expanding its fight against digital sovereignty, to ensure the United States doesn’t lose an important point of leverage over friend and foe alike. This should be another reason to accelerate efforts to ditch US tech, and especially its dominant cloud companies.

I guess Toronto's Olivia Chow and Mamdani have more in common than I thought. Mamdani campaigned on a much more progressive platform, but I don't think Chow actually backtracked on any campaign promises...she was careful to avoid subjects like homelessness altogether.

Great. So, this social media platform is just as problematic as the others. Where are we going now??

Canada is uniquely positioned to break the siege of Cuba—we should be leading a regional coalition to ship oil and aid to Cuba, and prevent the humanitarian crisis that U.S. regime is attempting to deliberately trigger. I wrote about it, and the history of the blockade, for @policyalternatives.ca

Ring is a wildly dangerous company. Always has been. But it has sort of flown under the radar the last couple years as it tried to soften its image. Make no mistake that this is an extremely dangerous surveillance dragnet: www.404media.co/with-ring-am...

What this ad doesn’t show: Ring also rolled out facial recognition for humans. I wrote to them months ago about this. Their answer? They won’t ask for your consent. This definitely isn’t about dogs—it’s about mass surveillance. x.com/Phil_Lewis_/...

Send this letter to Toronto Councillors. Why are we giving a police force involved in organized crime a funding increase while cutting critical services that *actually keep people safe*?! This year we're going to eliminate 2,000+ shelter spaces so that we can afford to give more money to dirty cops.

Concentration camps: “For 280 days we haven’t eaten a single piece of fruit, banana, apple, orange, or anything fresh. We are all in one big room with no doors or windows. We can’t see any grass or trees. We are all constantly sick."

If you need any more evidence that Woody Allen is disgusting (and so is his daughter-wife), do a search in the Epstein files for "Cosby." This is *some* of what turns up.

My friend lives in this building and said it was truly terrifying. The whole building woke up to their building being broken into by federal agents all to grab some guy who’s posted about being anti facist.

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

It's a pretty big deal that the NYC Bar Association--one of the most prominent and respected bar associations in the country--is accusing the President of ordering the "unlawful summary execution," i.e. murder--of civilians in violation of US and international law. www.nycbar.org/press-releas...

An even darker disappearance by ICE “I have not heard of a disappearance like this in my 40-plus years of practicing and teaching immigration law... This case represents a black hole where due process no longer exists.” — Stephen Yale-Loehr, @cornelllaw.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/04/22/u...

We to talk have a serious discussion about #cancer screening. Canada’s cancer screening guidelines lag far behind the latest science, and Canadians are paying with their lives, by Dr. Anna Wilkinson canadahealthwatch.ca/2025/03/10/c... via @canadahealthwatch.bsky.social @nicktsergas.ca

The way it works is that you strip fundamental rights from targets with less political support that people will turn their consciences off to justify persecuting and then eventually the state can do it to anyone, that’s always been the plan bsky.app/profile/pbum...

When are Americans--people, pundits, politicians, activists--going to start talking seriously about exercising their Second Amendment rights, as originally envisioned, to protect their country from tyranny? That option is baked right into the Constitution for a reason. Whats happening is the reason.

Well, this is interesting: The Early Warning Project of the US Holocaust Museum, which aims to prevent genocide by tracking & analyzing mass killings around the world, has changed its focus over the last 2 yrs from "mass killings" to "intrastate mass killings." 1/3

My response to the latest news from the gong show south of Canada, formerly known as America. #Greenlandsolidarity

Open corruption by Trump and New York’s Mayor continues.

Let's review. Trump: 1. Has total legal immunity. 2. Will pardon anyone who breaks the law on his behalf, probably preemptively, before long.

I was asked what a Canadian anti-fascist response would look like compared to the nationalist focus on a so-called trade war that completely misses the point (the fact that we are fighting fascism, not tariffs) and plays into fascists' hands. This is what I came up with:

Forget the consumerism draped in a Canadian flag: this is a fight against fascism and it requires an anti-fascist response, not a response that benefits Canadian companies & politicians that are cool with fascism (hello Doug Ford & the Weston family.)

Forget this nationalist consumerism crap. I want a list of anti-fascist goods and services. "Buying Canadian" and helping the Westons increase their profits (for example) doesn't help anyone but the Westons and the pro-Trump fascists.

USE. OUR. SKILLS.

Because it would take some level of legislative or regulatory control to prevent this - these bastards have already shown us they'll squeeze every last cent out of us if allowed.
