Mark Carney, sitting in the Oval Officr in front of Donald Trump rejects the 51st state talk. “As you know from real estate, there are some places that are never for sale,” Carney said. “Having met with the owners of Canada over the course of campaign…it’s not for sale. It won’t be for sale ever.”

Alberta First Nations issue cease and desist order against Danielle Smith's attempt to create a national unity crisis. Alberta is on treaty lands. Those treaties were signed 30 years before Alberta became a province.

The "Brantford Boomer" became an election meme thanks to extremely online right wingers. There's just one problem: @lukelebrun.ca found the real context, and it changes everything. Scoops like this are why I was so stoked to have Luke on this week's episode of Bubble Pop. Here's a taste:

Good Friday is when pro-death penalty Christians mark the execution of anti-death penalty Jesus; and it's all irony-free.

Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal

"One tweet from a Poilievre spokesperson created a far-right social media shit-fit that led CTV to kibosh Rachel Gilmore’s fact-checking segment Doing your job well is all it takes for a woman journalist to get cancelled in #Canada" Latest @cultmtl.bsky.social #cdnpoli cultmtl.com/2025/04/rach...

Ducks!

Canadians are coming together to defend our country and democracy. Conservatives on the other hand are saying vote for Poilievre or they will break up the country. Playing the traitor card is not a good look for Canada's Mini Me Trump. Here's my latest: substack.com/home/post/p-...

This is all you'll be missing when you boycott the SOTU.

american masculinity is so amazing. caring about clothes as a man apparently makes you "gay" but our position on geopolitics totally depends on whether you wear a suit

One of the greatest tricks that Donald Trump and Elon Musk ever pulled is to convince millions of people that DOGE is about government efficiency. It's about narcissistic, resentful destruction: The Death of Government Expertise. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Oh, look what normal countries do when a former president leads a far right coup attempt.

Had to pounce on my chance for a selfie with the iconic Chantal Hébert 🥰

Today in The Tyee, I describe some fascinating people I met over on the Musk site, and chat about them with UBC's @profterrig.bsky.social via @thetyee.ca thetyee.ca/Analysis/202...

The Washington Post rejected an ad buy calling for Donald Trump to “Fire Elon Musk.” The reason? The paper won't say. "We asked why and they said they couldn't give us a reason," the head of one of the groups attempting to run the ad told me. More in Status: www.status.news/p/washington...

I’m gonna start a thread called “Bluesky Liberal Meme of the Day”

Let’s see what motivates this guy to join DOG…oh

A solid take, the "establishment" (for lack of a better word) and that includes the media should not bend the knee here.

A swastika t-shirt is the only item on the Yeezy website. Powered by Shopify. It's not the first time Shopify has powered stores selling items with Swastikas. I've reached out to them about this before, and they kept powering the stores. The only thing they changed, eventually, was their rules.

There are new allegations that the Minister of Health, Adriana LaGrange, was involved in dictating the price that AHS was to pay for multi-million-dollar contracts and ordered AHS to shut down and cover up its internal investigations. 🔽🧵 www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/alber...

Berkshire-Miller's piece is a good introduction to Trump's motives, but it is scant on criticism, especially from someone who teaches for a Canadian institution. I feel this is an ongoing trend of American journalistic institutions bending the knee to the Trump administration.

We know what’s going on here.

Not necessarily the most important point here, but do the Gen Z Youths even know about the Great Gazoo storyline?

The Papua New Guinea Courier is in rare form.

I was at a shitty crustpunk bar once getting an after-work beer. One of those shitholes where the bartenders clearly hate you. So the bartender and I were ignoring one another when someone sits next to me and he immediately says, "no. get out."

"During these negotiations, President Trump's actions led Canadians to unite in solidarity, and that is absolutely terrible for my brand!"

DEI is when a woman or non-white person who is qualified for a job receives that job. The meritocracy is when a 19 year old gets to run the United States government because he posted the dankest memes

For all federal employees: Before you are locked out of your systems, ensure you have copies of unclassified performance appraisals, awards & other relevant personnel docs. If you have access to your office, grab your more important personal items sooner rather than later.

If you’ve been wondering what Elon Musk and his lackeys are up to since taking control of the US government, look no further. Our latest story names six 19- to 24-year-olds working with his DOGE organization, which now has access to sensitive federal systems. wrd.cm/4jzpiSN

In the United States families are being terrorized and targeted. And yet this shitbird grifter thinks she can win the leadership of the Liberal party of Canada through such tactics. Ruby, I knew you back in the day. You had no moral compass then. Go back under your rock. Canada has moved on.

I have an ominous feeling that the people currently saying “it’s not a Nazi salute” will soon be saying “it’s just a symbol from Hinduism.”

For anyone looking for friends from the now (apparently) defunct #dslreports.com a lot of the members have reconvened at broadbandbulletin.com hope to see you there!

This is brilliant, thanks @the-goose-media.bsky.social for making this and @peternowak.bsky.social for reposting.
