Quoted by @laurenwatsonjourno.bsky.social on potential Poilievre media cuts. IMO, while outlets like @nationalobserver.com have strong reader support, gutting CBC & public funding would leave many small communities without local news. www.cjr.org/analysis/can...

I say, GO! Mark Carney's leadership bid has put helium into Liberal poll numbers — and sucked all the air out of the NDP's sails. After looking like they might form the next official opposition, NDP risks getting wiped out, writes @maxfawcett.bsky.social www.nationalobserver.com/2025/01/29/o...

In 2025, thinking how in 1975, Carter inspired me as a young person to believe that America could become more progressive, fair and humane, and that all of that was worth fighting for. It’s been rewarding to see that over the years, he never gave up that fight.

Hey Bluesky friends, Happy New Year from the snow-capped mountains & rainy plateaus of Vancouver! I’m kicking off 2025 with 2 big goals: keeping climate stories front & centre with the @nationalobserver.com team, & mastering Scrivener so I can finish my memoir. What’s on your horizon this year?
