🧵 In Canada, migrants sustain our communities and most essential systems. And yet, they are being scapegoated for crises that are caused by corporate greed and government inaction. Let’s get into it. Full blog post with links and resources: leadnow.ca/migrant-just...

there's been a lot of talk about how we can retaliate against the US (counter-tariffs), and how we can boost business (interprovincial and other international trade), but i've scarcely seen any talk in media about how we would protect human people from the fallout www.thebind.ca/p/how-can-we...

Schooling Canada's MAGA MAPLE. Pierre Poilievre made his name beating down on a small town journalist while filling his face with an apple. He comes to Northern Ontario for rage rallies but won't go in the mines or mills to meet workers. I come from a mining town. www.youtube.com/shorts/Mf44P...

I've been down there, and after careful consideration, I don't think Poilievre could handle even that elevator ride down. He's not a strong man of courage and conviction.

Canadians across the country are rallying behind a petition to revoke Elon Musk's citizenship. He wasn't born in Canada. He represents profoundly anti-democratic values. In Canada citizens can present these petitions to Canada’s parliament. I support them. charlieangus.substack.com/p/musk-doesn...

In case it escaped your notice, Chrystia Freeland quietly loaned the Trans Mountain project $20b in public money before resigning in December. This is another hit in the barrage of lies and broken promises in the near-decade since the feds bought TMX 🧵

This week, I have been working on a story that gets behind some of the numbers of overdoses in Nanaimo. Last year saw a drop in the number of fatalities from unregulated drugs in Nanaimo and a corresponding drop in medical calls by first responders and emergency room hospital visits.

Donald Trump says he loves Canada. That's why he wants to destroy our nation. In Canada our kids don't worry about being shot at school. Our families don't go bankrupt if they get sick. And Canada sure as shit doesn't let convicted perverts take over our government. What do you think? #strongasfuck

If this were Just Stop Oil, there'd have been dozens of arrests, furious denunciations in the billionaire press and, perhaps, long jail sentences.

🚨 Last week, Brazil’s president Lula has signaled that the government will soon give Petrobras the environmental license to drill oil at Foz do Amazonas (“mouth of the Amazon River”). The license has not been granted because the project simply does not meet the minimum safety requirements.

Folks are shocked that their institutions, after professing commitments to climate justice and DEI, are now caving to Trump and scrubbing all references. It's brutal. And it's the smallest taste of what our students felt when their universities called in the cops b/c they protested a genocide.

Four years ago I was blabbering on to anyone who would listen about the rise of neofascism. I set up a mtg with my local mayors, MLA, & MP with a small group of kitchen table organizers. We were afraid for what we were seeing & no one else seemed to care. Well, I’m very sad that we were right.

The planet is on fire. Trump and Pierre Poilievre will burn the planet so that corporations can make even more profits. We are witnessing a dismal example of bumper sticker slogans when young people are looking to their leaders to step up. Please watch this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=faZ_...

There's such a tone of sadness to the CBC reporting right now. Adrienne Arsenault says, “I feel like the whole country, all of us, are getting both a history lesson and a politics lesson and an economics lesson and a lesson in heartache.”

My Mom is a miner's daughter. Her whole family fought Nazis. She was walking through the snow with her walker when a woman asked her,"Will we survive Trump?" "Of course we will," Mom replied. "I don't need asparagus. I'll eat root vegetables. We've done it before." That's Canada. #strongasfuck
