My life among the normies since the fall of Syria:
"Where are you from?"
"Syria."
"Oh I heard you guys are having democracy now."
"We have un-elected AlQaeda terrorist as a president."
"But he isn't a terrorist anymore right?"
"No he's still a terrorist."

Alberta's governing party has put together a tragic line-up of speakers representing anti-vaccination, revenge-seeking, convoy-organizing, Christian nationalism. Not to mention lobbyists who want to dismantle public education (see Joshua generation) and an anti-queer former UCP who spread misinformation.
It's all going down at a discount movie theatre whose owners make no apologies. Have some hateful rhetoric with your buttery popcorn, y’all.
🇨🇦 👋 40 Ways to Fight the Far-Right: In Canada
This guide offers ideas for people of all backgrounds, identities, and skill levels. While we encourage people to show up in person, there are also many options for people who aren’t able to do that.
Together, these actions present a variety of tactics which raise the cost of participation in far-right movements and, we believe, will keep communities safer.

Today, in 🇨🇦 House of Commons, Conservative leader, Pierre Poilievre was given an opportunity to denounce the white supremacists he's met with and the recent endorsement of RW conspiracy theorist & Sandy Hook school massacre denier, Alex Jones.
He chose not to.
"If there was any doubt remaining that Alberta's nearly seven-month moratorium on renewable-energy projects was a political decision — made in the halls of power rather than in the offices of expertise — it was erased by internal documents released to the public last week."

My cup overflows with anger toward these lying, deceiving, murderous, oil and gas companies. So this morning, I did something I've never done before in hopes the people coming home from their long weekends in Tofino and Ucluelet get the message.
Please Boost.

Friends had a dinner for extended family last week. Every single person in attendance got infected with #COVID. That's from young children to grandparents. Yes, there is still a pandemic and this highly infectious disease can also result in incurable #LongCovid
So, having given vent to my political id lately, why quit?
I have many contrary thoughts.
(I have no Indigenous blood, yet the concept of certain difficult people being valued as ‘Contraries’ has long resonated with me; I read of it ages ago in relation to a then-extant plains/southwest people; I feel one of them.)
Anyway, the contrary thought.
We know the #CBC has turned shit.
It’s been pumping out #Poilievre garbage without shame for weeks now.

Er, wait... that $100M contract with Elon Musk's Starlink that Doug Ford "ripped up"? Doug Ford signed that deal himself when Trudeau wouldn't make a deal with Musk, conning Ontario taxpayers out of $100M for a service worth less than $14M.
Now he's calling a snap election while taking credit for undoing his own crooked deal (with added penalty costs to Ontario taxpayers). The news is only covering his ripping up of the contract, not the origins of the contract to begin with.

March 2, 2025 in London, England
Reporter: "You clearly admire President Zelenskyy. So I'm wondering what you thought when you saw the treatment he received in the Oval Office on Friday?"
Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada:
"I think, first of all, it's important every chance we get to lay out the facts as clearly as possible. In 2014, Russia chose to invade Ukraine, to occupy Crimea and parts of Eastern Ukraine. For that, they were kicked out of the G7 and in 2022 they chose to violate the existing ceasefire and invaded Ukraine with the intention of taking Kyiv in three days and the entire country in three weeks. That has failed. Russia continues to try to fight to claim more land in Ukraine, and we could see an end to this war tomorrow if Russia decided to stop its illegal invasion of Ukraine. On Friday in the Oval Office, President Zelenskyy pointed out in so many words that Vladimir Putin is a liar and a criminal and cannot be trusted to keep his word in any way, shape or form, because he has demonstrated time and time again that he will break any agreements. I stand with Volodymyr Zelenskyy and I stand with the people of Ukraine."
Note that these simple historic facts which are public knowledge and can be looked up by anyone, are what were stated by Volodymyr Zelenskyy when Donald Trump responded with, "It is very disrespectful of you to litigate this in front of American media" (found about halfway through the meeting, if you're looking in the videos).
Trump was attempting to spread Putin's "alternate timeline" to the American people, and told Zelenskyy that it is "disrespectful" of him to tell historic truth about what happened in his own country, in front of live video cameras in the US. Think about that...
Donald Trump went absolutely livid when President Zelenskyy gave the American people a free history lesson on live tv, something which he knows his base would never read for themselves.
Too many corporate media outlets are putting out headlines that read, "'Very disrespectful', says Trump" without telling the truth of what he found disrespectful, which was (in his own words) to counter Russian propaganda in front of American media.

I feel really bad for the 75m Americans that voted for Harris, that you got stuck with a President that continuously gets compared intellectually and emotionally to an unruly toddler
There's been a huge wave of Canadian patriotism lately, but we're here for those 75m of you (not the 77m who voted for trump, or the 90m who just didn't vote)
So when we say "Buy Canadian" and "F America", we don't mean you 75m. We still love you. But we're still pissed
Thinking of starting a Canadian motorcycle company—tariffs be damned!
We can do it!!

Lol Trump realizes his support is costing Conservatives votes in Canada so now he's pretending he loves the Liberal Party.
You can probably hear all of Canada rolling our eyes simultaneously.

Hey, who remembers that time three Canadian Conservative Party MPs hosted a meeting with AfD party member Christine Anderson?
Fun fact: two of those MPs, Leslyn Lewis and Dean Allison were just re-elected.
“Germany designates AfD as right-wing extremist organisation”
radio says $1800 on average for a 1 bed right now in Kingston per rentals ca or whatever. #ODSP gives a max $522 for housing for a single person. If the Liberals had put in their #UBI it would've been $2000, leaving you with $200 to live off of. But #DougFord has only increased ODSP by $50 in 9 years.
Most #Disabled people are like me, we WANT to work, but physically can't. We are almost on death's door as it is, and it's ODSP or die in a gutter.
#Canada to expedite nation-building projects to counter #Trump admin border and tariff threats
« PM Carney said his plan is to narrow down a list of so-called "nation building" projects - like pipelines, nuclear reactors and trade corridors - and create a framework in which the projects would be approved in under two years' time. »
🔥 🇨🇦 🗺️ With Canada warming twice as fast as the global average (Government of Canada 2019), and home to more than a quarter of the world’s boreal forests, the country is experiencing this consequence of global heating firsthand.

Called it. Canadian Federal Government partners with Cohere to build out AI in the public service.
Cohere is 75% behind on their published revenue targets for this year. Here comes the government to bail them out.

Dear Mark Carney - in the light of Trump's new tariff letter threatening 35% on basically everything, tell him to fuck off and bring back the digital service tax
