Sir Richard Evans on David Irving: "... if we mean by historian someone who is concerned to discover the truth about the past, and to give as accurate a representation of it as possible, then Irving is not a historian." Important caveat from Dan Gardner. open.substack.com/pub/dgardner...

One of the greatest deceptions of our time is the false narrative that we should be more concerned about a poor person misusing the welfare system or an immigrant being here illegally than we are about the ultra wealthy abusing the system and cruel people having unchecked power over all of us.

The decision to fire Dr. Carla Hayden as Librarian of Congress "is part of a troubling pattern of attacks on libraries, science, research, and the pursuit of knowledge that undermine the very principles on which [the United States]was built.” www.arl.org/news/arl-com...

Appreciate this tarriff symbol indiciating US products so that they can be avoided. There is almost always a very good alternative, preferably one from Canada or any other country that is not waging a trade war against us. www.loblaw.ca/en/tariffs/

Walz: When did government get to tell you how many dolls your child has? Government just big enough to fit in your bedroom, your womb, and apparently now in your toy chest.

Perrin's op/ed is worth reading. "The premise of constitutionally entrenched rights and freedoms is that they exist to protect each of us, beyond the political motivations of government." Calling Poilievre’s attitude toward civil liberties "cavalier" is generous. It is terrifying. #cdnpoli

“Rebel is a conspiratorial partisan outlet that spreads misinformation and actively campaigns against candidates it doesn’t like. This isn’t journalism and it’s obscene that the Debate Commission let them on — and even more wild that it allowed so many of their faux-journalists to hijack…”

This reporter's question demonstrates how desperate the Conservatives (and right-wing newspapers) are about @mark-carney.bsky.social's significant lead in the polls. Dr. Carney handles it calmly and with a sense of humour. www.ctvnews.ca/video/2025/0...

Those of us who have followed Canadian politics for a LONG time have spent many years being thoroughly unimpressed (kindest description possible) by Poilievre. When Conservatives chose him as their leader, they knew exactly who they were getting. Please vote. 1/x #cdnpoli youtu.be/gnmgL5CZqfs?...

I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

Does the Conservative's 3-word rhyming slogan "Boots Not Suits" work with tradespeople? It's divisive and pits Canadians against each other. And it comes from a guy who has worn a suit as an MP for his entire adult life (20+ years). Canadians are smarter than this. #cdnpoli #FederalElection2025

Cleo Carney and Ella-Grace Trudeau are the highlights of tonight! Hurrah for Canadian women! Congrats to @mark-carney.bsky.social. As a proud Liberal, Carney was my first choice. I ranked him first for many reasons, but the most important is that he can beat Poilievre and the Conservatives. 🇨🇦

"We have accomplished more in 43 days" than other administrations in 8 years, and he's right. in the sense, that they have done more damage, harmed more poor kids abroad, undermined more laws, fired more civil servants including veterans etc etc

@jimacosta.bsky.social I believe “this” is not who you want America to be, but it is increasingly obvious to the rest of the world that this is who you are. Americans knew exactly who he was when they re-elected a felon to be their president. open.substack.com/pub/jimacost...
