"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:

A CANADIAN Trump critic is suing the U.S. administration to stop them from getting his personal data from Google. After the user posted criticism about federal agents killing protesters, DHS asked Google for his associated names, addresses, phone numbers, credit card and bank information. Yikes:
Return of the Left? The NDP crown their leader this weekend! What’ll it mean for the future of progressive politics in Canada? Plus: Poilievre went on Rogan, Canada’s top cop said something wild and big tech is having some big troubles. @parismarx.com and @supriya.bsky.social discuss: Sneak peek:
Ben Shapiro is coming to Canada (soon!) as part of a conference “against antizionism.” The depth of human cruelty required to put on this kind of conference is pretty incredible. Particularly when you contrast it against the eyewitness accounts of those living through Israel's genocide in Gaza:
How will Avi Lewis pay for his big ideas? Taxing billionaires and corporations. “Banks made $70 billion in profits last year…Grocery baron Galen Weston alone is worth $20 billion,” Avi says. “The money is there my friends. We need a government with the courage to go and get it for all of us.”
Almost a year after the federal election, Mark Carney’s Liberals have secured a majority government. But what does that actually mean for average Canadians? And uh, is it…okay that he did this, primarily through floor crossings, a year after the election? I have thoughts:
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:
Canada’s wealth gap is the widest it’s been in StatCan’s recorded history. You’d think Carney would focus on that -- not privatization. In fact, “Carney’s policies will only make inequality even worse," @dtcochrane.bsky.social, a senior economist with the Canadian Labour Congress, told me. Uh oh:
There’s a leftist movement catching fire around the world as people realize they’re getting screwed by the rich who keep getting richer. NDP Leader @avilewis.ca is hoping to harness that flame — but can he convince Canadians they won’t be burned? Here’s a sneak peek of our conversation:
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:
Lewis: “The prime minister is very popular at the moment. He’s a smart guy, and many Canadians still want to give him the benefit of the doubt. That’s fair.” “But I think when you connect the dots, his moves do not add up to the vision that Canadians truly want and deserve in this perilous moment.”
Just now — @RepJeffries and the Congressional Black Caucus joined the call for athletes to boycott schools in states where Republicans are racially gerrymandering (like Tennessee) to strip Black folks of representation
