Tried to get my real ID. I had my license, my SS card and my birth certificate. I was not allowed to get my real ID because my birth name is different than my married name. Now I have to go dig up a marriage certificate. You know who wouldn’t have to do this? A man. Never change your last name.

Autistic and neurodivergent people deserve far better than a government looking to prevent their existence, let alone one that will invent fictitious ways to do so that puts everyone in danger

💯 Economic blackouts work. #RESIST

In Newfoundland & Labrador there is no ban on corporate donations. Records show lots of business leaders donating big to the governing Liberal Party ($680,000 in 2024). #nlpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Here in #BC #BonnieHenry assured parents if kids stayed seated in their desks, they couldn't catch it. Also that it couldn't go around corners. She never called for masking, Mike Farnworth did. She refused to call it airborne - droplets were as far as she'd go. Dereliction of duty.

The more Pete Hoekstra and his ilk squeal, the more it's apparent Canadians should not only continue the boycott, but intensify it.

Our children have become the victims of the mis/disinformation era and nobody seems to care. Public health has always protected the community, while allowing for small numbers of individual exceptions. When the exceptions become normalized and the rule, the protection of the population ends.

What the actual f#$k are we doing to kids?

Area man who couldn't convince his local constituents to elect him says he'll convince American authoritarian leader to be nicer to Canada.

Disney is no longer associated with magic and innocence in the minds of millions now. There are mistakes - and there is catastrophic cowardice that changes your brand identity. Boycott Disney.

This seems like an excellent solution.

Canada's regulatory bodies have failed us in so much. From things like having some of the most expensive and worst cell phone services in the world, to our media organizations all being owned by foreign entities. All while the conservatives scream to dismantle the CBC. #CRTCFailure

Check who owns your newspaper, and boycott the American press manipulating Canadian politics. Harper sold us out. #ElbowsUp #BoycottPostMedia #cdnpoli

@joelplaskett.bsky.social put on one helluva show in Bridgewater tonight. Grateful to have been there. Thanks so much for coming home, Joel! You brought so much joy!

Shout out to Jim O'Neill, new acting director of the CDC, for drawing attention to the alienation people with long COVID continue to face - from friends, family, partners, doctors, employers etc.

Amongst the many, many other faults and follies of the party, perhaps the single most dangerous problem with the Democratic Party today is their incessant habit of reinforcing the idea that there is absolutely *no* principle that matters, no policy that is sacrosanct that they will stand behind.

Hidden Heart Damage: How COVID Continues Haunting Millions "5 million people worldwide may be walking around with cardiac long COVID, their hearts silently struggling months or years after their initial infection cleared" Report: academic.oup.com/eurjpc/advan...

Ouch! Painfully funny stuff.

Instead of recognizing Israel’s genocide in Gaza & upholding its commitment to the International Humanitarian Law & Genocide Convention, Canada banned artists who speak the truth to the power & labeled them as “supporting terrorist organizations”. Instead of sanctioning the actual terrorists. Shame

Behold the resounding success of @hfxgov.bsky.social's new road "safety" 😜 strategy.

Three days after the UN inquiry declares "genocide" in Gaza the Carney government says they are still waiting for "all the evidence" before taking a stand. What an epic moral failure.

A fascinating read. I knew something about the Disney corporations “special” relationship with governments but had no idea how truly awful Walt’s vision was.

Immediate request from HRM director of traffic management to stat person: "did we increase population enough to massage numbers into some improvement on a pro-rata basis? No, how about number of people hit per Car?"

Anti-science creeps northward. 😳 Dr. Boileau's comments suggest ignorance of asymptomatic spread, the exponential harm of each infection (including long COVID risk), and the effectiveness of layered protections (vaccines, masking in public, cleaning the air): www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

"Canada needs all evidence assessed before recognizing genocide in Gaza." No, Mr. Lametti! Your first day on the job & you've already got it dead wrong. Is this a hint you will put Canada in perpetual "abstain" mode at future UN votes? I bear witness to the Gaza genocide. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Critical Mass Ride FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 26 🗓 Meeting at 6:00pm, and ready to roll out at 6:30pm. Location: Starting at City Hall (Grand Parade Square), ending at the Commons.⚾️ We will ride on paved city streets. The length of the route is around 7.5km 🌆

All eyes on the Global Sumud Flotilla. Israel is escalating its rhetoric, gearing up for something major. Diplomatic pressure can make a difference. This is the moment to pressure our governments to stand up for the right to deliver humanitarian aid to Palestinians being deliberately starved.

Join us in canceling Disney Plus. Let’s boycott ABC and Disney. If you’ve already canceled, drop a “done” in the comments.

“I'm disappointed that I came to Canada” - US Ambassador #Hoekstra So are we Hoekstra. So are we. #boycottUSA

As usual, PP thinks he can anger Canadians with attacks on the Liberals. Meanwhile, the facts are this:

MAGA ambassador Pete Hoosktra says we are Anti-American for using the word "trade war." Trump declared copper and Canadian lumber imports from Canada a "national security threat." Trump says America holds all the cards. He says he is tired of us "ripping off " America. Elbows up Pete. We see you.

"The US Ambassador is 'disappointed' that Canadians aren't 'passionate' about their relationship with Americans." Pete Hoekstra is an arrogant, old, entitled white guy with a big mouth and I'm passionate about kicking his ass out of Canada. halifax.citynews.ca/2025/09/18/u...

Jimmy Kimmel is a symptom of a huge problem: a concentrated media ecosystem beholden to corporate whims. Canadian media struggles with this too. Consider Global News' management making Ben Mulroney a top political host. It's a worryingly partisan decision, especially given what I just uncovered:

Hoekstra, he hopes to shame us into being friends? What? Their ignorance, or lack of self awareness, is on them. He clearly doesn't understand what it means to be Canadian. He should resign his post. #cdnpoli

AI medical tools downplay symptoms in women and ethnic minorities - on.ft.com/3IuZ5qz via @FT

MAGA ambassador Pete Hoosktra is telling Canada that he doesn't like the term "elbows up." He says it's anti-American. Sorry Pete, your president might be able to fire Jimmy Kimmel but you don't get to tell Canadians how to talk. Elbows up Mother-stucker.

www.saltwire.com/nova-scotia/... Ignored and not mentioned by the ambassador: the US BREACHED the terms of an agreement it signed. THAT is “disappointing.” #trade #cdnpoli #elbows #novascotia

Ruffalo: I'm reaching out to all of my brothers and sisters in the entertainment industry, to join us...They're coming after celebrities because they know we are the last ones to actually be able to have our freedom to speak. So use your platform wisely, use it generously for this movement. #NoKings

Sadly true.

Just canceled Disney plus. Just never thought mickey Mouse was fascist.. hmm, noq we know

I’ll never understand why grown men get to behave like children. It’s enough to make a grown woman decide divorce is the better option.

Absolutely right, we are irate. If you’re that ashamed to call yourselves Americans, then do something about it

I’m canceling my @DisneyPlus subscription “indefinitely.”

Canada places 200% tariff on little Canadian flags Americans wear while travelling

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

I know it's frustrating when lawyers point out when something the administration is doing is not legal. But responding with "the law doesn't matter anymore" is really unhelpful and defeatist. Clarifying the law is important because it reminds us not to comply in advance and to resist and take action

You can check off most boxes if you wear a mask in public By wearing a mask in public, you show that you don’t believe “COVID is over” Also showing that you believe that COVID can harm & cause long term / permanent disability (LongCOVID) You’re also protecting disabled / immunocompromised people
