Ford is a lazy grifter.

Bye Byeford

Wab Kinew calls on Ottawa to abolish Indian Act: "I'm not sure if that lines up with your vision of Canada, that we still have a race-based form of identification in this country. It's long overdue that we have a relationship with Indigenous peoples that reflects who we are as Canadians today."

Bill C-39 is a fundamental attack on our constitutional rights. We will not stay silent as Carney’s Liberal government violates our human rights. Standing in solidarity against Bill C-39 with Indigenous leaders, unions, environmental activists. Winnipeg Centre knows how to fight back.

meanwhile...

The US is not about to have a free and fair election. The state has put its thumb on the scale to favor the ruling party in multiple ways. It's a mostly free, somewhat unfair election. But still one where the ruling party can be overwhelmed by numbers. Hence the term "competitive authoritarianism."

Private equity has transformed youth sports into a $40 billion for-profit industry. Now, lower incomes families are being priced out and those that do participate are stuck with high costs. That's why we're collecting stories from those who experienced it firsthand: earful.us/c/youth-sports

“Students really changed the whole political landscape of the country, and maybe even more important, they changed political imagination."

Yet @mark-carney.bsky.social is wanting to spend billions on a pipeline no private company would fund as its not a sound investment.

we do truly need to break free of neoliberalism and recover our sovereignty, our ability to shape our destiny and carve out our place in the world, control our energy, water, & natural resources, digital & cultural spaces. We are in a battle for sovereignty but do we agree on what that means?

Define what you think the word “care” means.

Editorial: Toronto is falling apart, so let me finish it off - by Brad Bradford

Um, @thebeaverton.com

⚠️ Social media = polarization machine ‼️ 👉 Extreme ideologues post more 👉 People are more likely to post extreme positions "...robust evidence that online discourse severely over-represents extreme perspectives" = "prediction of false polarization." Important preprint: osf.io/preprints/ps...

It’s time for PM Carney to put his Davos speech into action. Canada standing against Trump’s illegal fuel blockade of Cuba and helping send energy to Cuba is a perfect opportunity to do so. x.com/ctvnews/stat...

NEW: Ingram, Texas, was just rebuilding from a devastating flood when its tiny police department enrolled in ICE’s 287(g) deportation program. Within a year, cops would hand over the equivalent of 10% of the town. with @nytimes.com

The stupidity is breathtaking.

BC nobly sacrifices good governance to teach one man about hubris

@vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu you support the ICC. And yet are in bed with genocidists.

“Zuckerberg has reportedly spent €51m buying a castle in Ireland. His net worth is around $240bn. Using an average Irish salary of €58,000, the equivalent proportion would be roughly €12” Blindboy AKA @bbboatclub on podcasting, politics, and the tech bro takeover of Ireland Q&A by Brenna Spain

While @mark-carney.bsky.social pushes for more pipelines and water guzzling data centres.

Wow. What a fuck up. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

With his assist on Vinni Lettieri's goal, Gavin McKenna (8) has officially passed Nick Kypreos (7) in career points as a Toronto Maple Leaf

TROY STECHER 🚨 ANOTHER REVENGE GOAL

💯💯💯

Bradford’s argument is water could never be privatized under his plan because it would require the *Doug Ford Majority Government* to change provincial legislation. And that would never happen, right? They don’t have a history of heavy-handed juristidictional overreach, RIGHT?

Shopify's CEO is on X advocating for Brad Bradford to win because of a City of Toronto post about speed limits featuring two men and a stroller, something he clearly doesn't think will happen under Brad's rule. This is the guy who thinks rich people deserve more votes. This is who Brad attracts.

As an Edmontonian, I’d note that every single question failed in Edmonton. My neighbours understood the assignment.

So this is Build Canada Strong? Yet another sign that Canada is being hollowed out from within

WATCH: “In the 51 years I’ve worked on pesticides, this is the single most regressive proposal I’ve ever seen.” Elizabeth May warned the government this morning about dangerous pesticide control changes hidden in Bill C-30.

Avi Lewis: "We must reverse the privatization of our healthcare system immediately."

Cho-tel. Mo-tel. Holiday Inn.

Remember: Wealth cannot be separated from power. We're seeing in real time how the extreme concentration of wealth is distorting our politics, rigging markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of people. Taxing the rich isn't just an economic issue, it's a defense of our democracy.

Carney's reply.

The fact that the president's doctors are giving him the dementia test over and over again -- tracking his decline, most likely -- and that the president keeps bragging about having to take that test should be a five-alarm fire.
