"It is vital that Nazis, pedophiles and people threatening to rape your family to death because of how you vote are allowed to flourish in every public space in order to prevent echo chambers from forming." - The Globe & Mail, essentially What an absolute failure of Canadian media.

Keith Irving posted on Facebook yesterday that there is another reason that Tim Houston may have wanted to get rid of the Auditor General (see clips below). www.facebook.com/share/p/1AFC... #TimHouston #AuditorGeneral #NovaScotia

King Tim is at it again

"Who Is Superman? A Private Interview With Lois Lane" A story about hope and connection ☀️(1/4)

So happy to share my official work for the new Daredevil: Born Again series. I've been a Daredevil fan for a looong time and getting the opportunity to work on something for the new series is a huge honour. Thank you Marvel Studios and The Poster Posse for making this happen 🤘🏻

The world has witnessed the most disgraceful political tantrum of all time. Trump is not the leader of the "free world." He is convicted felon who doesn't deserve to be in the same room as President Zelenskyy. There is no going along to get along with this thug. Canada needs to stand with Ukraine.

I just want to remind Tim Houston and NS Gov that the platform they ran on was to “fix health care” and that health care also includes mental health care. And so, before Tim demands that youth be locked behind bars while ignoring a 25 yr olds death at the hands of police, he should ask himself….

Breaking News: Scientists from the University of the Basque Country have discovered a groundbreaking molecule, WIN55.212-2, that reverses early cognitive damage caused by Alzheimer’s disease.

The Halifax Examiner is responding to Tim Houston’s bid to Dismantle Democracy By @timbousquet.bsky.social

We can all acknowledge that it’s extra messed up that our premier who doesn’t want an auditor, is an accountant by trade, right?

"This is a monkey-see, monkey-do legislative landscape Whether it's diminishing the public's access to information or diminishing the right to privacy.… Once one jurisdiction manages to get it passed into law, other jurisdictions point and say, You see, they can do it" www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I am begging Nova Scotians to read today’s Halifax Examiner Morning File. “It’s the biggest electoral bait-and-switch con in Nova Scotia’s electoral history. You voted to fix health care, and Houston takes office and burns down Province House.” #nspoli

I suspected things would be bad with such a large majority but none of these decisions make any sense. 😡 www.nationalobserver.com/2025/02/20/n...

Great stuff here from @thewalrus.ca. More local/regional coverage is exactly what's needed right now. thewalrus.ca/the-walrus-l...

I’m kinda disappointed to observe that, so far as I can tell, not a single Canadian journalist has reported on this

📌I was the managing editor at Stars and Stripes and can tell you that Pete Hegseth is the first SecDef I am aware of to be openly booed by military families on a military base. 📌This is the most significant pushback I have seen to this administration's racist, hostile initiatives.

Musk killed these people.

Charlie don’t stop and I am here for it.

Here's the speech if you haven't heard it. 13 minutes of your time. Share it with your American friends and neighbours, because they won't see it otherwise. Circulate it in Mexico and Denmark, France and the UK, Panama and Germany, Poland and Estonia, and especially -- especially -- Ukraine.

Because of you, we get to do what we love, right here in Canada, and we proudly do so. Standing behind local Canadian businesses has a great impact on the future of communities that thrive when we support each other. That’s the beauty of Canada. We stand together. We grow together. 🇨🇦❤️

oh, my … someone’s truck was stolen from the pet valu in truro tonight with their pup in the vehicle.

Can someone please tell Nova Scotia Premier Houston when he goes on about unleashing would-be frackers by changing environmental laws regulations in this province, that the most precious “natural resource” of all is fresh water, which fracking devours and pollutes? Also: climate crisis.

Currently reading "The God of the Woods" by Liz Moore and this sentence jumped out at me. "Rich people, thought Judy... generally become most enraged when they're about to be held accountable for their wrongs."

What’s really wrecking America (& Canada) is the private equity plague with its billionaire “modern-age robber barons” amassing stupefying riches by mining wealth “from the poor and the middle class” thru bullshit financial dealings, killing jobs & people, destroying the environment and climate…

“If the Conservatives were more of a political party, and less of a cult, they would read the writing on the wall and hold a leadership review. Their leader cannot lead. He inspires no confidence.” Pierre Poilievre continues to prove that he’s unfit to be prime minister

America 2025: "Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

LRT kinda love that idea. There are enough alternatives for EVs now to make this happen.

This one's a no brainer. Where should we levy the first tariff retaliation? 200% TARIFF ON ALL TESLA PRODUCTS Contact Finance Minister [email protected] Tell him that Charlie sent you.

“Poilievre traffics in anti-fourth estate hysteria with obnoxious behaviour unbecoming of most teenagers, let alone presumptive prime ministers. But this attitude reveals more about Poilievre than he realizes: the man is an empty suit, devoid of meaningful ideas for the future of this country.”

I worry less about Trump's claims over Canadian soil and more over his claims for Canadian fresh water.... Some 'resources' shouldn't have a price on them: water is one of them. No sell. No buy. No steal. canadians.org/analysis/whe...

It's wild that this isn't getting more attention: Beijing’s official target, set in 2020, for EVs to account for 50 per cent of car sales by 2035, will be achieved 10 years ahead of schedule: China is set to sell more EVs than ICE vehicles in 2025 www.ft.com/content/0ebd... #energysky

“Tailoring content to benefit from X’s right-wing algorithm encouraged the propagation of a false narrative that ‘Canada is broken,’ and that the only person able to fix it is Pierre Poilievre — a politician who a majority of Canadians dislike and whose net favourability sits at -18%.”

#science A friend of mine just turned me on to a new scientific search engine: Consensus (consensus.app). It states that it only shows results from Peer Reviewed papers & articles. Pretty darn useful… when I'm not looking for webcomics and anime. Hey, don't judge, we're all complex organisms.

jokes aside as popeye enters public domain a reminder we got mario and donkey kong because nintendo couldn't use popeye and bluto, like star wars happened because lucas was denied making a flash gordon movie let corpos denying you recycling their stuff drive you to do better new stuff that's yours

For all the Conservative poll lovers out there. If the polls are correct, you're going to lose Dental Care, Childcare, Pharmacare, carbon rebate, and public healthcare because Russia, China and India told you you hate Trudeau. #YouAreTheMark 🎯 #cdnpoli #peipoli #onpoli
