The disgraceful behaviour in the White House is not about Trump or Vance. It is about the complicity of the entire political class of the United States and the American media. It is about the very soul of America. They either stand up for democracy or they stand for tyranny. The world is watching.

#EconomicBlackout

I’ve been boycotting for about 4 months. I think I can do another day.

New book by RFK Jr, a sequel to his first book, The Very Hungry Brain Caterpillar.

I don’t know. I think of him more as a turd than an agent.

We build vehicles that weigh 9000 pounds with 1000HP, can go 0-60mph in 3 seconds and market them recklessly. We then ask people to wear construction vests to cross the street. This is all so beyond absurd and it's truly incredible that we've normalized this.

Please go out and vote on April 5. We can’t have ABC ruin our city.

Yikes.

Montreal’s cycling network is really incredible. So simple, intuitive and safe. Every municipal decision maker should see and experience it.

Oh Canada—I give thee permission to hold a grudge!!🤣

Le Régime canadien de soins dentaires a aidé plus de 1,5 million de Canadiens à bénéficier de services dentaires. Pierre Poilievre prétend que notre régime « n’existe pas » et il le supprimerait.

The Canadian Dental Care Plan has helped over 1.5 million Canadians access dental services. Pierre Poilievre says that our plan “doesn’t exist” – and he would cut it.

Can’t remember who suggested to say “Douche” instead of Dodge, but I’ve been doing this ever since and it’s helping with my mental health. Thank you.

I don't trust Poilievre as 🇨🇦 PM because I don't trust someone who tags incels, promotes his visit to Diagalon extremists, supports and recruits anti-vaxxers and will ban vax reqts, supports Freedom Convoy, has alt-right Euros visiting MP's, calls govt Marxists, and won't get a security clearance.

Read the whole story if you can. These books are a great way to escape this 🍊💩 show we’re witnessing.

We were promised a balanced approach. Does this look balanced to you? We need progressive fighters at City Council - to expose Ken Sim for his broken promises, and to stop him from doing more damage. Vote Lucy Maloney on April 5.

I’m loving these rebranding ideas. Let’s get the switch of Dodge to Douche trending and now RFK as well.

I seem to remember that having a radio in your car was considered a distraction. I have no words for whatever is happening here. 🤯

I wonder why?

Normalize pronouncing DOGE as DOUCHE.

Can we please do the same here @cityofvancouver.bsky.social We have one of the greatest city and it could be so much better. I’d be happy to do this just in the downtown core.

Unfortunately this collision is only predicted to happen in 2032. The 🍊💩 can do a lot of damage til then.

Really good column from @rjjago.bsky.social here. www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

This is how it’s done. Dump Amazon. All of it.

We have elections coming up! Smart choices are critical. 🇨🇦🇨🇦 #CanadaResists #cdnpoli #abpoli

Exciting vision for a walkable, vibrant Rupert & Renfrew with ambitious road reallocation plans! 🚶‍♀️🚲 But the timelines? Way too slow. Have your say & push for faster action—take the survey today. It closes February 18.

So if there’s a measles outbreak or something like that, can we close our borders? How would that even work.

Dear Canadian politicians. I think we can all agree that regardless of what ends up happening with Trump’s stupid Tariffs, we can and will no longer tolerate the long-standing stupid trade barriers between Canadian provinces that weaken the Canadian economy. Fix them immediately. Seriously. Now.

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.

One of the most successful pedestrian streets in the world, the Strøget in Copenhagen, was filled with cars until a 2 year pedestrianization pilot project in 1962. The opposition argued “no cars means no business,” but the street has been a massive retail success, the city’s busiest shopping street.

Canadians are stepping up and supporting the Pledge for Canada. Please sign on. We will send a message to Trump and to any Canadian leader who would try and cut a deal to sell us out. Let's get past 20,000 sign ups today. True North Strong Free actionnetwork.org/petitions/pl...

Our streets have not been made safer since Ken Sim and his ABC crew have come into power. They keep prioritizing cars over pedestrians safety every time!

Chardonnay and cousin fu$&*ng! 🤣 Gotta love @michaelhobbes.bsky.social’s take. overcast.fm/+AAkfJoh0fDI

A quack is someone who pretends to have knowledge that they don’t actually have. The word comes from a Dutch term, quack salver: a person who sold cure-all salves that didn’t work. Thanks to the @thetyee.ca and @caulfieldtim.bsky.social for doing the work you do. 👏👏👏 thetyee.ca/News/2025/01...

Environmental lawyer and cycling advocate Lucy Maloney named as candidate for OneCity in Vancouver by-election coming April 5.
