Another stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe. Serbian students voted out their authoritarian leadership after months of protests against corruption, taking their fight from the streets to the ballot box and turning people power into political power.

Avi Lewis: "The right has not been afraid of rage. And what they've done is redirected it to immigrants, to trans kids, to people living on the street. Instead of directing that rage upward to the people who are amassing vast fortunes on our economic misery."

In Mark Carney’s vision for Canada, finance trumps human rights every single time. For all his talk of values, contempt for human rights runs consistently throughout his actual policy decisions. This is not pragmatism. It is a conscious betrayal of fundamental ethics that diminishes Canada. 🧵1/

Politicians should have to explain to school kids why billionaires get tax money to build data centers and football stadiums while their teachers have to shell out of their own pocket to buy basic school supplies.

WTF is Carney doing. I need to understand all the public servant cuts. I know he is making his rich buddies richer and also AI. He doesn't care about Canadians. He is the worst of the worst.

This week I’ve seen men ridicule women for dressing “too provocatively” & other men ridicule Muslim women for dressing “to conservatively.” A reminder that men should shut the hell up, stop worrying about how women dress, & instead expend their energy on getting men to stop raping & abusing women.

Walmart has long stymied attempts to unionize any part of its business. Which is why the breakthrough union victory won by 800 workers at a Mississauga, Ontario regional distribution center is worth closely examining.

“Dutch people cycle an average of 2.6km each per day. If this pattern was replicated worldwide, annual carbon emissions would drop by 686 million tonnes. This mammoth figure exceeds the entire carbon footprint of most countries, including the UK, Canada, Saudi Arabia and Australia.” @euronews.com

1/8 🚨 NEW: We found a network of 30+ pro-oil front groups coordinating, tracking progress, and reporting back to their funders about how they are shaping energy conversations in Canada. It looks like that was supposed to stay under the radar, except they left their platform completely public 👇

#TorontoStar No surprise! Ontario government hid study on rates of problem gambling. iGaming Ontario secretly shelved a research study that tracked the rates of problem gambling in the province. Suicides, insolvencies, & ER visits related to gambling issues have all gone up since iGaming started.

We learn that Howard Lutnick threatened to send US troops across the Canadian border "by sundown" if we didn't back down. The threat was made over the plan to retaliate over arbitrary tariff with an energy surcharge. Canada must be ready for all threats from the USA. youtube.com/shorts/EKjjV...

The Feds will subsidize a $100 billion pipeline after paying $34bil for the last one. But the PM signs on with Trump to fight subsidized EV technology. This has nothing to do with jobs. It is about blocking the expansion of cheap/accessible alternatives. www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art...

When the leaves turn yellow and the cold wind blows I think of a Thanksgiving feast held on the abandoned Adams Mine Road in the north. We defied police, injunctions and a powerful corporation to defend the watershed. My political life was born on that road. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-adams-...

Let's see: $50 BILLION for a pipeline that will help pump 100,000,000 TONS of carbon into the atmosphere, worsening climate change. $2 BILLION to heat pump retrofits to "reduce emissions". Seems hypocritical doesn't it? 25X as much to put carbon INTO the environment? What say you?

Agreed: Alberta Queen of Stupid Danielle Smith was never elected to hold a referendum of any kind on separation, and the whole current exercise is a act of treason calculated to keep the protofascists of her own party mollified. 🍁😠🍁
