The goal was to engineer a deficit crisis by slashing taxes & gov't revenue like bridge tolls & to implement Disaster Capitalism: "the brutal tactic of using the public’s disorientation following a collective shock—wars, natural disasters, etc—to push through radical pro-corporate measures.”

Unlike all other provinces, Nova Scotia allows the government to simply spend surpluses outside of the normal budgeting process — that is, without debate in or approval of the legislature. This off-book spending was so bad that the auditor general specifically called Houston out on it.

once again, we need to get off US tech and platforms as quickly as possible — and governments need to seriously fund the development of alternatives

I've been saying this for years. I recognize that councillors have a lot of travelling around to do that requires a car, but they could at least go to City Hall on the bus. I've NEVER seen a councillor on a bus. With no personal experience with transit, they can't make informed decisions about it.

china bad because of state surveillance america good because of corporate surveillance that also gets wielded by the state

It’s funny to hear this report list all the ways Chinese data collection could be a threat when the US does the same things and poses a much greater threat given Trump’s 51st state comments. There’s only a brief acknowledgement at the end that the US isn’t trustworthy either.

if democrats had a backbone they’d run on repealing the hague invasion act

For decades, every climate warming projection has been for too little. Those conservative estimates are what keep us watching the game instead of pummeling politicians. The warming projection crosses +2.0°C in the *2030s*, not in the 2050s. www.nakedcapitalism.com/2026/02/has-...

Well, this is interesting! The U.S. Attorney’s Office had a draft statement announcing Jeffrey Epstein’s “suicide” dated August 9, 2019. He didn’t die until August 10. Totally normal. Nothing to see here.

Instagram has suspended Track AIPAC, the highly popular watchdog project that documents AIPAC’s political spending, citing a violation of Instagram intellectual property rules, specifically trademark rules. The account tracks FEC donations, and points out top-funded lawmakers.

CNN reporter says the FAA’s 10-day flight ban at El Paso, Texas, was triggered by U.S. military activity at Biggs Army Airfield, which sits right next to El Paso International Airport at Fort Bliss.

Airborne crematoria, delivered just-in-time, leaving no trace: genocide perfected. US atom bombs vaporized people in Hiroshima & Nagasaki. Today the equivalent of several Hiroshimas in the form of conventional and thermobaric weapons are vaporizing Palestinians.

Experts and witnesses attributed this phenomenon to Israel’s systematic use of internationally prohibited thermal and thermobaric weapons, often referred to as vacuum or aerosol bombs, capable of generating temperatures exceeding 3,500°C aje.news/s1ry02

Epstein got to retain his social status even after he was convicted. Today, people who went to Epstein’s Rape Island are similarly getting to retain their social status. The Epstein class isn’t deterred — they are running their scheme on a new loop RIGHT NOW.

Please let the anger over ads during the CBC Olympics broadcast finally create the pressure for the government to fund CBC enough so it can stop having to rely on ad revenue.

Simple: War with Iran is mostly about Israel. As long as Israel remains expansionist, its project will be regionally rejected, leading it to define its security as regional hegemony - a state of 10 million dominating a region of half a billion. That’s impossible without the USA – thus forever war.

The fatal flaw the major US automakers made was following the Tesla model of the EV by making big, expensive vehicles that were out of reach of most consumers. Start by giving people the option of an affordable car or small crossover, not a monstrous(ly expensive) truck or SUV.

"The use of wealth and institutional power by donors to intimidate curators, override professional decision-making and censor artists is antithetical to artistic freedom.”

I'm convinced if they re-released the iPod now, it would sell like crazy. Un-enshittified tech that just works and doesn't force feed a plethora of ads, AI slop and gimmick functions down your throat, is an untapped market.

A 2017 UK study "looked at the costs of running parks and open spaces in greater London, as well as the health, well-being, and economic benefits. The study found that every £1 spent on public green space equates to £27 in value for the public."

Russiagate never dies: the author of the thoroughly discredited Steele Dossier (not a single allegation verified) now runs cover for Israel, obscuring its structural role in Epstein's intelligence/blackmail infrastructure.

Another report that confirms it’s absolutely the right thing for Canada to be trying to attract Chinese auto manufacturing. Chinese EVs are going to get into the US market one way or another, and when they do, Canada would then be well-positioned from acting early.
