Prof. international law Marieke de Hoon: when Greenland was threatened, Europe emphasised territorial integrity. But when US and Israel started their illegal attack on Iran, many countries, incl. the Netherlands, showed 'understanding'. This hypocrisy is noted in the global South. nos.nl/l/2604943

Spanish PM Sánchez on Trump's threat to end trade: "We are not going to be accomplices to something that is bad for the world and contrary to our values and interests simply because of fear of reprisals... We have absolute confidence in the economic, institutional & moral strength of our country."

Spanish PM Sánchez responds to Trump: "Spain is against this disaster... Govts are here to improve people's lives... It is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are unable to fulfill that mission use the smoke of war to hide their failure, and in the process, fill the pockets of a few."

WATCH: If you STILL don’t understand how car-dependent suburbia is HEAVILY SUBSIDIZED by downtown and all the urban parts of your city, watch this EXCELLENT video by #NotJustBikes with #Urban3 & @strongtowns.bsky.social. And PLEASE SHARE it as much as possible. I’ve sent it to a LOT of politicians.

Warren Kinsella and Senator Charles Adler are coming to Ben Mulroney's defence and blaming TV producers for Ben sharing video game footage as if it were real air combat videos from Iran on his personal X account (I don't think they understand he is sharing this stuff on X, not on TV)

I need you to know that Israel has violated the ceasefire with Lebanon 15,400 times since it was struck in Nov 2024. That is 31 times EVERY DAY on average. This barely gets reported by western media. Why do you think that is? www.nytimes.com/live/2026/03...

"The attack came despite US intelligence assessments that Iran was unlikely to pose an immediate threat to the US mainland within the next decade." So why do it? "A weeks-long lobbying effort by Israel and Saudi Arabia..." Ah. Not just weak, but cheap, too. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Wherein Smith claims that "newcomers" are costing the province $9 Billion in social programs. In order for that to be true, every single newcomer would have to be accessing social programs that many don't even have access to. These are evil misrepresentations. #abpoli #ableg

Canada would have been better off saying nothing. You can detest the regime in Iran without supporting chaos. www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/stat...

Iranian authorities and Red Crescent Society officials report that more than 100 people, most of them girls, were killed at a primary school during joint U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iran. Let’s be clear: Slaughtering children in a school is an atrocity and a war crime. www.ft.com/content/055d...

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

They were going to pass rules to phase out gas stoves, until they received 20,000 public comments against the regulations. Except, oops, it turns out the comments were generated by AI.

The situation in Minneapolis: even though the ICE presence in the city is greatly reduced, and national attention has moved on, a huge portion of our population remains essentially in hiding, devastating the schools and economy. In particular, much of the education system remains in crisis

My confusing day: Government claims the new, smaller proposed building will actually have more "exhibition space" than its shuttered predecessor, despite releasing numbers showing it in fact has less -- and then couldn't explain itself. www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

Radiohead is demanding that the Trump administration take down a pro-ICE promotional video featuring a version of its song “Let Down” without permission. Full statement from the band:

City doing one more study - hopeful this one will conclude that doing nothing about the car-centric status quo is the best way forward.

After delegating at PWIC yesterday, we chatted with Kristy Cameron on CFRA about right turns on reds. As always we appreciate the opportunity, Kristy does a great job of asking important questions that lead to productive dialogue. You can listen to the convo here: drive.google.com/file/d/187FI...

cruising around google earth this morning and this spot near Al Zahra in Gaza, where the different moments in time meet , is horrifying and utterly heartbreaking. that there are people who would order, carry out, cheer on, or justify such a destruction of life is sometimes too much to comprehend

“Antifa” is a sentiment and an organizing principle. There is no membership. He’d have better luck trying to find people who joined Paw Patrol.

Video of Knight's answer, posted by several folks on the other site ...

Hilary Knight got the question re: that phone call and the laughter at the Torrent presser. Her answer:

So they’re going to cripple healthcare for the poor in Minnesota to make an example of the state. The warning is “don’t resist.”

All from Minnesota. Love to see it.

A new paper shows that less than 2 months of exposure to Twitter’s algorithmic feed significantly shifts people’s political views to the right. Moving from chronological feed to the algorithmic feed also increases engagement. This is one of the most concerning papers I’ve read in awhile.

On Friday, on my way home from a workshop at City Hall on the City’s Vision Zero Action Plan (!!), I was hit by a driver on my own street. I have a badly broken wrist that will likely require surgery, and face a long recovery during which I’ll struggle to fulfil my parenting and work duties. 1/

Pierre Poilievre has launched a “free speech” petition in support of Barry Neufeld, an anti-LGBTQ+ bigot and antisemitic conspiracy theorists with a history of filing anti-free speech SLAPP lawsuits against his critics www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Never gets old.

Some day we'll all regret this & we'll hold hearings & rend garments & pledge "never again" & we'll be just as full of shit as we were last time.

Just keeping track of all the stuff that's gonna have to be prosecuted later is exhausting

Welcome to 2026, where readers of 👉the New York Post👈 get a better education on the science of airborne disease transmission than an MD who just graduated from medical school at the University of British Columbia. This is not hyperbole. People need to go to jail for this. #medsky #scisky #cdnpoli

“We're afraid of walkable distances now? — conspiracies & the 15-minute city.” If you somehow missed the unhinged conspiracy theories about the concept, listen to @brenttoderian.bsky.social’s National Australian Radio interview with @greenj.bsky.social. He called out the lies & tactics. #UrbanTruth

🇺🇦‼️ Russian agents rented apartments near the presidential office with orders to eliminate Zelensky, — CNN It was one of dozens of Russian attempts. The elimination was a key part of Russia’s plan to take over Ukraine, which Moscow expected to complete in a matter of days.

I just signed a @theactionnetwork.bsky.social petition: Stop the Contract: No Canadian Weapons to ICE. Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/st...

The cover-up just never ends. Rest in peace, Ruben Ray Martinez.

More of this, please. The folks in this grassroots group are heroes. Haven Watch lives by the promise, “No One Walks Alone.” Day or night, they show up. When people are released from ICE detention, volunteers meet them in the cold, disoriented, and exhausted. Beautiful and devastating all at once.

"Everyone must be in high-viz all the time" is a great way to victim blame and shift the focus from dangerous drivers and poor infrastructure. Unfortunately it doesn't actually make anyone safer. This is a fantastic analysis of a truly ridiculous proposal.

The UCP government’s behaviour is so wildly inappropriate and is such an arbitrary abuse of power here Governments are accountable to the public, they should not be blacklisting anyone asking questions / requesting information and should be operating under consistently applied policies at all times

There must be trials. Not as an emotive aspiration, rhetorical meme, or empty threat. A concrete plan. A dedicated special court for it. Structural legislation and prosecutors and funding and all the rest of it. Everything necessary for it can be done constitutionally. All it takes is the will.

3.8 million YOUTUBE views already, plus video clips spreading thru every platform like a tsunami, plus every main stream media outlet talking about how Colbert’s interview of @jamestalarico.bsky.social was censored… In one day, Trump, Carr’s FCC and CBS have made James Talarico nationally famous.

“I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.” - 7 year old imprisoned by ICE for 70 days in a concentration camp in Texas. Today, after @propublica.org published this story, the camp was raided to confiscate letters from the children. www.propublica.org/article/ice-...

Bloomberg says we've spent $3B on Trump's invasion of Venezuela. Which is 6X more than the cancer, Alzheimer, diabetes, and heart disease cures they've cut to pay for it. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Copenhagen is changing the green wave - from cars to bikes 🚲🚦 15 major streets will now give cyclists coordinated green lights, reducing stops and improving flow. A small but important shift in who the city is designed for. Read more: www.nordicpath.dk/copenhagen-i...
