If you don't think road safety should be left to governments holding majority control with only 40% of the vote, demand proportional representation.

Is it any wonder why the Conservatives are determined to defund the CBC? They don't want the CBC to hold them to account.

“A report by the CBC revealed that Pierre Poilievre hired the team behind Canada Proud to ‘boost his messages online.’ The organization has since been caught running disinformation campaigns targeting Mark Carney. Canadians deserve to know every last detail about Poilievre‘s ties to Canada Proud.”

The fact that the UCP are going to stop tracking deaths of Albertans waiting for treatment, tells me that it's going to get worse I mean, why else would they stop counting 🤷🏼‍♂️ #ableg www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti...

If you also work with young men and are feeling some-kinda-way about the Manosphere's influence, you should also come to this virtual event that @whiteribbon.bsky.social is hosting in November. It'll be focused on preventing misogynist radicalization with boys and young men!

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Seems like an appropriate time to remind people that Doug is a nepo baby who grew up rich because his family owns a sign company.

Maybe I'm just naive, but I was genuinely taken aback when students asking to opt out of an "optional donation fee" to the department they're registered to, receive a response as the one below. Is this the norm? @westernu.ca #WesternU

This is interesting Pierre just used a globe and mail article about foreign workers International students allege private college made them campaign for Conservative candidate Students say they were told to campaign at Tamara Jansen's office in December 2024 Jon Hernandez · CBC · Sep 22, 2025

Sir, the literary world cried, sir, they cried, with tears in their eyes, you are the best McSweeney's columnist ever, please sir, can you write one everyday?

Ben Mulroney is blurring the lines between journalism, business, lobbying and partisan politics The new host of Global News’ national political news show also works for registered lobby groups, advises businesses and hosted election events for Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives earlier this year

The inequality in these damages is staggering. Hope they're successful.

"For the first time in its history, WIRED is dedicating an issue to politics, citing concerns about the tech industry's alignment with President Trump. @katie-drummond.bsky.social explains what this shift means for Silicon Valley and for readers."

"People in positions of power, particularly Poilievre, need to recognize that they need to not only be preoccupied with their own safety, but also the safety of their critics," says Rachel Gilmore. www.hilltimes.com/story/2025/0...

In Canada, when fraudsters steal your life savings, you get nothing back. Quebec fixed this 26 years ago. Why hasn’t the rest of the country? https://macleans.ca/economy/money-economy/canada-protects-banks-from-fraud-why-not-investors/

Coming to Canada soon.

Is it possible for the child of a prime minister to have thoughts of their own and be a good journalist? Maybe! One potential problem is when they also work for several lobbyists / businesses at the same time as they are hosting news programs and repeatedly have their business partners on as guests

Mulroney also works for Aurora Strategy Global, a firm registered to lobby the federal government When not hosting West Block, Mulroney offers clients “behind-the-scenes strategic advice” to “get your message in front of the right audience whether it is to government, the media or stakeholders”

Ben Mulroney also hosted a campaign event for Toronto–St. Paul’s Conservative candidate Don Stewart during the federal election earlier this year Mulroney hosted the partisan campaign event at the same time as he was hosting a show on Global News 640 Toronto pressprogress.ca/ben-mulroney...

I did a deep-dive into Ben Mulroney's extracurricular activities: At the same time as Mulroney is filling-in as host of The West Block, he is also working for two registered lobby groups and as an adviser to several companies – some of whose CEOs he's interviewed on Global News 640 Toronto radio

This is fucking insane and I am astonished at how irresponsible Global News upper management is being with this. They’re risking the credibility of all their journalists and for…what? Canada’s worst nepo baby?

Our very own CBC did it too, whitewashing the fascist next door. There’s an ombudswoman for that: cbc.radio-canada.ca/en/ombudsman....

@toronto.ca hope you're learning from the experiences of other cities.

@mark-carney.bsky.social This is kinda as important as the economic stuff if we want democracy to survive in Canada l.

School phone bans have had an unexpected positive side effect—reading in schools has skyrocketed. Kids are taking massive numbers of books out from the library. 📚 My bet is that there are lots of u expected side effects of phones and social media www.nytimes.com/2025/09/17/o...

"look what I'm doing to Canada"

“Pierre Poilievre is alleged to have benefited from Indian interference in the CPC leadership race. What’s more, he still refuses to get his security clearance. It begs the question: Does Canada have a Conservative Party, or a foreign interference party?”

CBC just reported on Petition e-6679 — a call to hold MPs accountable for spreading disinformation. Poilievre wants CBC gone because it’s the one Canadian voice that fact-checks his fearmongering. Without it, lies win. 🖊 Sign: www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en... 📰 CBC: r.pebmac.ca/https://www....

“It is troubling that corporate interests are spying on activists who are trying to protect the public from the actions of these corporations,” EFF’s Adam Schwartz told @DeSmog.com; big businesses have been known to share such intel with law enforcement. www.desmog.com/2025/09/19/...

It took nearly 2 years into Israel’s genocide in Gaza for a UN inquiry to call it what it is. Still, there are campaigns that successfully target Canadian doctors and experts who’ve been to Gaza & talk about the health crisis. Latest for @pressprogress.ca pressprogress.ca/campaigns-ta...

The most amazing part of this is that the far right didn't target her because she celebrated Kirk's death or even threw his own words back at them. She merely expressed a well-founded worry that his murder might inspire the far right to greater violence and they apparently took that as a challenge.

What happened after Canadian journalist @rachelgilmore.bsky.social posted about the potential repercussions of Kirk’s murder: doxxing and violent threats thetyee.ca/Opinion/2025...

I spoke many times with Catherine McKenna about the failure of the RCMP/Parliamentary Security to address rising levels of threat. Homes were outfitted with security cameras but little was done to track online threats. Good people gave up on serving the public. nationalnewswatch.com/2025/09/12/f...

It gets worse: “The thing about the CBC, I gotta tell you guys, is the whole place is run by women. I’m working for women. I’m a token guy there ... So you know how I get back at them? Today when I do that hit by Skype, I won’t have any pants on. I never do. I’m not kidding.”

Turning Point USA made a literal watch list of professors, primarily women, queer folks and people of color, and made us targets of political violence. I’ve received hate mail and harassment and death threats off and on for nearly a decade in part due to that man’s organization so 🤷🏽‍♀️

Margaret Atwood and others have called on Canada to protect its sovereignty. But is Mark Carney’s minister listening? Canada’s government appears content to allow our digital lives to be bought and sold by an unaccountable class of foreign tech overlords. #Opinion

Hey Toronto! Saturday Sept 13th Be there! 💪

The racist hate mobs are coming to Christie Pits on Saturday Sept 13. The choice is provocative. This is where people fought the Nazi's in Toronto in 1933. There will be a huge rally in the park this Saturday at noon to show the haters they aren't welcome. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-riot-o...

This is what happens when justice serves power instead of people. Banksy’s latest piece shows a judge beating a protester. They rushed to throw up barriers to hide it. We need this here because it looks a lot like our own Supreme Court vs. the people.
