Great overview of Poilievre's history of anti-worker and pro-billionaire votes by @queentiwa.bsky.social. Most stunning highlights for me were: 1 - he's literally never passed a bill 2 - he sold nearly a million affordable public housing units to private investors youtu.be/3ybUSDzV05w?...

Murray Bookchin: "[Anarchism's] central focus has always been the only meaningful goal social revolution can have—the remaking of the world so that human beings will be ends in themselves and human life a revered, indeed a marvelous, experience."

Welp. Apple snuck something dirty in our phones last night. Settings > Apps > (pick an app) > Siri > Learn From this App TOGGLE OFF. You have to go through each app. My garage app, my BANKING APPS, others had that turned on automatically. 😡

Yes, whenever I talk to musicians they *always* say the worst aspect is the music bit. If only that didn't get in the way of their interactions with Spotify, labels, promoters and the universally beloved LiveNation/Ticketmaster.

Let's sidestep opinion and simply remind ourselves that Free Trade has obliterated our sovereignty and integrated us so far into the US that we no longer even have our own foreign policy. And Chrétien is to thank for all of that.

The numbers are in, unfavourability is rising and it's time for @jagmeetsingh.ca to step down Even committed NDP voters are leaning toward the party doing better without him Center-left independents believe the same, slightly better with somebody else Via @angusreidinstitute.bsky.social

NDP's comms strategy of never ever saying what they will actually do differently is super effective Publicly owned grocery stores? Maybe! Higher corporate taxes? Who knows! Breaking up the oligopoly? Flip a coin! Punishing corporate execs? Your guess is as good as mine!

And Broadbent wasn't even the left flank of the party.

When Justin Trudeau prorogued parliament, he also killed a number of key pieces of unfinished legislation, such as - The emissions cap on the oil and gas sector - The Canada Disability Benefit - A tax increase for the wealthiest investors I wrote about it for @policyalternatives.bsky.social

Not to mention water and electricity. The Columbia river treaty created an enforced drought in the Kootenays while the US gets the bulk of the offtake Any discussion of tariffs that doesn't include strengthening control of resources in Canada shows the incredible weakness of our political class

I'm genuinely BEGGING the @ndp.ca to shut up about Poilievre and Trudeau and actually explain HOW you're going to fight for working class people I hear from frustrated rural Canadians that they want change but they also want a plan. I'm sorry @jagmeetsingh.ca, no one is standing with you without it
