Mitch McConnell on the Ukraine war: "Blame for this human catastrophe rests solely on Vladimir Putin … If Russian forces laid down their arms, Europe would be at peace. If Ukrainian forces laid down theirs, Putin's aims would not stop … Mistaking this fact is as embarrassing as it is costly."

Anyone considering flying into USA airspace would seem to be taking a huge and growing risk. All Canadians should be cancelling their trips south of the border.

I don’t understand why Canadian media has not addressed this yet, nor has our Premier. There are Americans posting they’ve been fired and they are worried about the drinking water 💧 remaining safe. #cdnpoli

Doug Ford commercial in heavy rotation tonight, jabbers about “when Ottawa descended into chaos, he stood up, stepped up for us.” I beg your pardon? The closest Ottawa came to chaos was during the chud convoy and I distinctly remember Ford was nowhere to be found. He went snowmobiling.

When Elon was a kid, survival for ALL, the most common childhood cancer, was <10% Now it’s >90% due to funded collaboratives (high indirect costs) whose work ultimately SAVES THOUSANDS OF LIVES EVERY YEAR. For other cancers there’s still so much progress to be made. I think it’s worth it.

Under fascism, no one is safe. Universities stayed quiet as the admin targeted DEI & foreign aid, censored research, etc. Now, they face devastating cuts to indirect cost rates, threatening research & operations. Silence won’t protect institutions. It won’t protect people; it never does.

If Canada's in the mood for some fun and not afraid of the US, we should find $1 billion dollars and offer to fund the labs of top US scientists who move their work here.

Safe to say over the next 4 years, the US government will attempt to kill all academic research that is not geared toward technological development or wealth creation. US universities need to tighten their belts and weather the storm. Also, it will bleed over into Canada, too.

Long time Trump supporter Doug Ford wants to privatize health care in Ontario. 7 years of damaging Ontario is enough. Are you better off than you were before he took his bulldozer to Ontario?

It used to be the standard that when tragic events happened, we first focused on the victims and the families and shared our condolences. That time has passed. Now we are in a mad rush to draw a conclusion within the first hours and even worse, squeeze it into a political narrative.

Ontario universities are cut to the bone. They're being financially strangled by the Ford government, via a merciless, stupid tuition freeze and the lowest per student funding in Canada, ever. If this gov't is re-elected, one of the best uni systems in the world is dead.
