In shock at the grocery store? In tears looking at your bills? “It’s because the wealth of this country is being hoovered up by a corporate elite who are extracting it from you every single day,” Avi Lewis says. “It’s immoral. It’s unreasonable. It’s un-Canadian. And we cannot let it stand.”

“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 want to talk about the subtle ways people online can influence how you and others around you think. Because I’ve noticed a trend. Not only is actually pretty smart, but it seems to help accounts gain influence over online conversations — for better or for worse worse:
Trans rights have been under attack, viciously, for a while now. I think we need to have a talk about just how intentional all of that is — how these narratives are being used to drive a wedge through our society, so specific actors can profit and fundraise off of our misplaced rage:
This one of the wildest Canadian politics stories I’ve seen in a while. A Liberal nomination race in the province of Ontario is being rocked by allegations of serious irregularities in voting — and it’s exposing a flaw in Canadian democracy that politicians of all stripes are speaking out about:
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:

The rise of far-right authoritarianism just got kicked in the nads. Hard. Viktor Orbán, a puppet master of the rise of the far-right, just lost the election in Hungary. Everyone who cares about the rise of the far right should care about this — but shouldn’t get complacent. Here’s why:
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:
Someone should probably find out if there was a gas leak at the Globe and Mail. Short of that, it’s hard to fathom why their editorial board thought it was a good idea to publish their piece on potential unmarked graves at residential schools. This navel-gazing, both-sides bullshit hurts people:
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):
Cleveland continues to attack matchups and use drives to force the Pistons to help/rotate -Harden gets the switch vs. Robinson with an empty left side -Harden drives left and Duren helps -Cade works to split, Merrill relocates to the wing, Harden hits him for 3.
This #AAPIHeritageMonth, we're celebrating AAPI communities and amplifying the health disparities that deserve our attention year-round.
Q: “Should 1/6 rioters get taxpayer money?” Tennessee’s Senator Bill Hagerty: *doesn’t say NO, calls himself a ‘VICTIM’ (because he was talking to Trump as Trump tried to overthrow the election)*
