Monsanto wanted its growth hormone in every glass of Canadian milk. One government scientist stood in the way and his own bosses spent 14 years trying to destroy him for it. His name was Dr. Shiv Chopra. Canadians owe him a lot. Pt 1

I've just posted our Riese & Muller Multitinker (Lorraine) for sale (we want a R&M Carrie, so Keisha can go on either of our bikes). If you're local to me and looking for a great used cargo bike, let me know and I'll send you the listing. #yyjbike #yyj

And we let a man — a dogshit one — accumulate that much money as people starve to death. What the fuck are we doing?

a little on the nose for capitalism that the world’s first trillionaire is a nazi conman

I think we should paint all brick walls in bright yellow to prevent such tragedies.

« Patrick Bruel va enseigner le consentement » « Nicolas Sarkozy va enseigner l’honnêteté » « Marine Le Pen va enseigner l’antiracisme » C’est déclinable à l’infini ce genre de conneries.

Une version française en projet?

I don't want to be judgmental here, but I can't help noticing the house had no high-visibility features and didn't wear a helmet.

This is a great book and the clearest possible summary of where Mark Carney's political program comes from and where it leads.

It's also nothing new. The IDF has been using children for target practice for decades.

Dear lord. If you know anything at all about scientists and scientific conferences, this is wild.

Start by enforcing the Canada Health act.

PT 2 of our report on American Billionaire’s BC FARMLAND BUYOUT 🚨 The BC Greens stand with communities across the province losing valuable farmland to absent land hoarders from down south. Sign our petition (link in bio) to tell our government we need foreign farmland ownership restrictions NOW

Why are public health and infection control decisions the exclusive turf of complete imbeciles who have absolutely zero idea what they're doing? COVID is the Dunning-Kruger pandemic. Check with real scientists before you believe any rainbows-and-unicorns bullshit from medicine's management class.

a "formal investigation"? by the government? or the police? about the collusion between the government and the police? DEMAND RESIGNATIONS FFS

Good thing Carney isn't also dismantling Canada's weather and climate monitoring systems. What's that?....he is! We're so fucked 'Absolutely Crazy’: Horror as Trump Moves to Dismantle Crucial Ocean Monitoring System www.commondreams.org/news/subsurf...

First the UK was arm twisted to label anti-Israel rhetoric hate speech, now it's coming to Canada. Carney is forming a council to prevent antisemitism (aka thought crimes). First place they should look: the Israeli genocide of Palestinians. Ending aparteid would help, too www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Israel now occupies more of Lebanon than Russia occupies of Ukraine. But of course that's a 'good' invasion. So there is silence.

Oh… someone wrote a book for me

Once again: German universities were the envy of the world before the Nazis rose to power and took an ideological wrecking ball to the entire enterprise. If you want to know how long it took for German universities to recover… they haven’t.

I mean... it is technically accurate but also so misleading. Maybe you could tone down the clickbait @mtlgazette.bsky.social

La nomination de Jérôme Dupras comme Scientifique en chef du Québec me donne l’occasion de repartager ce moment mythique de 2019 où il est apparu deux fois dans le même Téléjournal, tel un Clark Kent/Superman.

C'est du spin. Il n'y a pas plus de médecins, et ils sont aussi occupés qu'avant. On a promis une prime si 500 000 patients étaient inscrits, on les a inscrits, mais ça ne veut pas dire qu'ils pourront voir un médecin plus facilement. Et ça vient de coûter 76 millions $.

Not original. If you created this meme, please chime in.

Technically, btw, THIS is the original: "I have no particular love for the idealized ‘worker’ as he appears in the bourgeois Communist’s mind, but when I see an actual flesh-and-blood worker in conflict with his natural enemy, the policeman, I do not have to ask myself which side I am on."

Eliminating luxury taxes on yachts & private jets reduced Carney government revenues by roughly the same amount as they "saved" by being cruel to vulnerable refugees. It says so very much about our banker in chief's "values."

Here is Rick Mercer’s rant on CBC when Harper tried to pass Bill C30, which is essentially the same bill as Carney’s C-22. #cdnpoli

Left- German journalist traveling on the Freedom Flotilla: "We were transferred by Israelis from one prison to another; they stripped me naked, and I was raped by Zionist soldiers". Right- Netanyahu's potential successor Naftali Bennett bragged that he was in NYC during 9/11 & it could happen again

Bonnie Henry emphasizing that there is nothing to worry about worries me a lot.

Après Signal, NordVPN menace à son tour de quitter le Canada à cause du projet de loi C-22

Hi @profanity.accountant how am I doing?

Countries where Signal is no longer available: • Russia • China • Iran • ...Canada? "Secure messaging service Signal, which uses end-to-end encryption, is warning it would withdraw from Canada if asked to compromise its users’ privacy under Bill C-22"

164 years ago, on the 13th of May 1862, Robert Smalls escaped slavery by capturing the steamboat 'Planter' and steering it through Confederate lines. The US Navy commissioned it as the USS Planter and appointed Smalls as captain, making him the first black man to command a US ship. #otd #history 🗃️

One of the most terrifying images in history: Gaza transformed from life into death. Gaza in 2023 and 2026 💔

The union representing me is to labor action what the Democratic Republic of North Korea is to democracy

This guy fucking sucks and I kinda think PP would have been better because then at least we would have all known that he sucks.

🇨🇦's #BillC22 is entering committee study this week - and we're hearing it may become law by end of the month. We never say this: but this is the worst, most privacy-breaking bill we've seen. It MUST be stopped. Speak up against it and read on to learn more: www.openmedia.org/StopC22-bsky 1/

The biggest story about data safety you are missing right now is Lawful Access, Bill -C22, and the threat it poses to us all. @davidwcochrane.bsky.social

If you’re looking for a hands-on evaluation textbook that also tackles today’s real-world challenges, this new release is worth checking out. It is free, published by @uvic.ca libraries: dspace.library.uvic.ca/items/11a8fa...

The data gets even more granular. We can know that the Thompson Cariboo Shuswap region has a MVI death rate 13X South Vancouver Island/Vancouver, and like 20X that of Richmond (the safest area thats tracked in this document)

At the very end of this article we learn that the Auditor General used AI to write a report about the problems of using AI in health care. 🫠 Most of us have only had a few yrs of exposure to AI and we can't even avoid using it when we're talking about whether or not to avoid using it.

🧵 Why are we suing the Calgary Police? It’s hard to describe what happens to you physiologically while being smeared in public by powerful people. It’s a mix of uncertainty, fear, frustration, rage, indignation, and anguish, on a thick layer of pity — for self and others you know are in it, too. 1/

A weird thing happens when you go through something like that but powerful people say you didn’t. You watch reality get swallowed, digested, and reconstituted by power in real time. I think a lot more people can see that now, two years on. 4/

I agree with @zey.bsky.social on this point. And here is one practical example of a serious side effect of the "don't panic" credo www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...
