Even if all parties signed onto the revised ‘peace’ plan, it could conceivably be illegal according to International law because it does not allow for international agreements to be recognized if at least one signatory is under the guns. That’s my understanding. #Ukraine www.cnn.com/2025/11/25/e...

What does the future of the NDP have in store? A lot of good, perhaps. But first the party and it's next leader have a lot to figure out. A conversation on the state of the NDP leadership race: jacobin.com/2025/11/ndp-...

This is arguably the rarest substance in the universe, as far as humans are aware. (Or at least as claimed in the video 🤷) #organicmatter #science #cosmology #interesting

81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

Let's have a reintroduction the characters of the RHOTWH (Real Housewives of the White House). #ProudBlue

In his 1987 address to Canada’s Parliament, Reagan hailed free trade as an act of faith in freedom itself, “the open door of cooperation over the closed gate of isolation.” Alongside Prime Minister Mulroney, he cast the U.S./Canada pact as democracy’s economic twin. 🇺🇸🇨🇦👇

The CLC-sponsored NDP leadership forum focused largely on the candidates’ biographies and personalities. But one candidate did try to shake things up by putting some bold ideas on the table. #NDPLeadership2026 rabble.ca/politics/can...

Rob Ashton has disrupted the NDP leadership race, and has quickly positioned himself as a serious contender, can it last? #canpoli rabble.ca/politics/can...

Tomorrow night - mass organizing call for Avi Lewis with Naomi Klein and Anjali Appadurai. Anjali Appadurai was the BC NDP climate justice leadership candidate so likely to win the BC NDP leadership race 3 years ago that the NDP disqualified her from running. act.lewisforleader.ca/organizercall

A fifth candidate entered the race to lead the federal #NDP cknxnewstoday.ca/news/2025/10... #cdnpoli

A fourth candidate joined the race to lead the federal #NDP #cdnpoli www.timescolonist.com/national-new...

A video of Rob Ashton from awhile back sort of reminds me of Pat Stogran when he first ran for #NDP leadership in 2017. What was his slogan, ‘fighting the good fight’? Stogran’s run was memorable for speaking straight and bringing in folks that are not often associated with the party. #cdnpoli

Rumour has it that Rob Ashton will throw his hat in the ring on October 1st for #NDP leadership. I don’t know much about him, but even candidates with limited name recognitions have been documented to become dark horses when it comes to rank ballots. #cdnpoli

Avi Lewis and Heather McPherson, excellent candidates so far. Past #NDP leadership races were often described by the media as boring affairs due to the perceived uniformity of political beliefs, the level of cordiality and the lack of scandals among candidates. #cdnpoli

For the federal #NDP to return to their roots is a threat to the two-party system because it can fill a void that #LPC and #CPC cannot touch without destabilizing their own political foundations. LPC and CPC may prefer the NDP to remain close to the middle of the political spectrum. #cdnpoli

Looks like Heather McPherson may formally announce her candidacy for the federal #NDP race on September 28th. #cdnpoli www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/alb...

Reflecting on Charlie Kirk reminds me of Othello. Yes, Othello attacked Desdemona and it was Iago that set the stage to make it happen. Would Charlie be Iago and Desdemona the society’s vulnerable? Othello, of course, the far right. #uspoli

Some great Halloween ideas

Second Amendment activists in shock as Charlie Kirk shot instead of just schoolchildren

Compared to other provinces, Manitobans tends to punch above their waist (per capita) when posting vintage stuff on Kijiji. Instead of Walmart, check for comparable items at antique stores (eg tool, decor). Chances are the item will last much longer than what you would find at Walmart. #Manitoba

Heather McPherson for #NDP leadership? It’s something to watch out for: #cdnpoli #canada www.heather4leader.ca

Tony McQuail has declared his intention to run for the leadership of the federal #NDP. He looks to run on the idea of merging the left wing party with the centre-orient Green Party. #cdnpoli #canada

Should the #NDP replace ‘leader’ with ‘spokeperson’? ‘Leader’ has hierarchical signals (directs, decides). ‘Spokesperson’ communicates positions of a party. Emphasizing "spokesperson” might signal that power & decision-making stem from members, not just the top brass. Names & titles are signals.

WW3 better not happen on Friday the 13th…

“You let one ant stand up to us, then they all might stand up.” The movie ‘A Bug’s Life’ has a lot to teach us about power.

Symbolically, perhaps the federal #NDP should formally drop the ‘P’ for branding purposes. New 🍁 Democrats Nouveaux 🍁 Démocrates Slightly more coherent than the constant switching of letters between English and French. #cdnpoli

I don’t think the next permanent leader of the #NDP necessary needs a seat in the HoC to hold the government to account. I mean, to have a seat would be nice but I fail to see it as a top priority in this day and age. #cdnpoli

As a prairie person, I can confirm that Danielle Smith’s government is acting like a spoiled whiny temper tantrum-prone brat. It’s almost as if Danielle’s penchant for creating meaningless drama is to avoid tackling the deeper issues within Alberta. #abpoli #cdnpoli
