Just 90 minutes before Trump’s self-imposed deadline last night, a two-week ceasefire deal was reached. Had they not reached a deal, Trump was threatening war crimes and genocide. But what brought us here? How do we help Iranian citizens who are suffering? @smohyeddin.bsky.social joins me:

“The NDP will start winning again because we will become that beacon to the 99%, illuminating the darkening sky of these terrifying times with the energizing light of collective struggle,” Avi Lewis says. It’s about coming together to build “a government that works for the many, not the money.”
I’m travelling for work and I wasn’t planning to film a video today. Then I saw something I couldn’t ignore. An Israeli cabinet minister posted a video to social media revelling in the abuse of detained flotilla activists, including Canadians. And our government is hardly doing anything about it:
I spoke to the Trudeau-era environment minister who resigned from cabinet under Carney. Steven Guilbeault has a warning about Carney’s latest environment-trampling proposals — ones he agrees would be worse than Harper’s. Here’s the latest on the plan that would “eviscerate” environmental laws:
It’s not often I get to report good news, so we’re going to take some time to do that today — because @theonion.com officially has a deal to take over Alex Jones’ InfoWars. Their plan? To turn it into a parody of itself. It’s going to be so good:
Canada has a Neo Nazi problem — but we actually just did something about one of them. A Canadian neo-nazi was just sentenced to 20 years in prison. As investigative journalist @petersmith.bsky.social helped me explain, this could be a big deal (and likely has other nazis shaking in their boots):
The separatists in Alberta apparently published a searchable database with the private information — including names and addresses — of almost three million people in Alberta. Holy fucking shit. For context, the population of Alberta is just over 5 million people. Here's what we know:
"A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.” That is what U.S. President Donald Trump posted on Truth social this morning — a blatant threat to commit genocide in Iran. So how is Canada responding to that? Well, uh, it’s not great:
Alex Jones tries to read an article in its entirety and seemingly begins to hallucinate words
Whenever I want to check in on the state of Canadian democracy, I look at its weakest link: the Alberta government. And folks, it’s not looking great. You know the Don’t Say Gay stuff we’re used to seeing in the the United States? It looks like something similar is coming to Alberta schools.
Chilling details emerged today about the Canadian government’s inaction as Israel kidnapped and abused Canadians bringing aid to Gaza. Israel shot at them, beat them, stabbed them, and left them for dead. One activist called the Canadian consulate between Israel's attacks -- but no help came:

Lawyers, genocide scholars, the ICJ, and the UN Commission of Inquiry state the Israeli govt's actions in Gaza amount to genocide - so why does the UK still maintain there is no plausible risk of genocide, in the face of overwhelming evidence? Why does the UK continue to be complicit?
