“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

The RCMPare in Ford’s pocket. It is a disgrace. The auditor general did most of the work for them and they still can’t close this case.

Liberals Hate Socialists Because Socialists Are The Real Thing Most liberals secretly hate socialists more than they hate rightists, because while rightists attack their political agendas, socialists attack their egos. www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/liberals-h...

Ontario election candidates from the PC party are being muzzled and skipping out on local all-candidates debates in droves like TRAINED SEALS. Is this the kind of leadership we want from our future MPPs? UNACCEPTABLE. Ensure your voice is heard at the polls. www.thespec.com/opinion/edit...

For those who trusted the US, that is I never did. I welcome my fellow Canadians into the light. Read history. Manifest Destiny is not a joke to the US. It’s an aspiration.

A fantastic editorial. 👍👍 Thanks for writing this @margaretshkimba.bsky.social. 🙏 For those of you who want to understand what happened with Sarah Jama in Hamilton Centre this is an essential read. 🍊🪧🗳️

This is an excellent piece and a must read for anyone considering the ONDP for membership or entering politics through the ONDP. At the end of the day, this mishandling of Sarah Hama was a massive failure. @maritstilesndp.bsky.social Boo to you and the executive leadership.

Always get excited when email tells me Margaret's written another piece. This one, about Ontario NDP's abysmal treatment of @sarahjama.bsky.social (and by extension ON voters) doesn't disappoint. Well, her writing never does. 👇

I’ve been holding onto this for some time, waiting for all hope of reconciliation to be extinguished. Now it’s time to tell the story of what happened in Ham Centre. It was hard to write, but my sources wanted it out there. I owe it to them. open.substack.com/pub/margaret...

Yes he is. I’m reminded of 2014 while he was a city councillor “…My heart goes out to kids with autism. But no one told me they’d be leaving the house.” I thought he had a problem with anyone who is disabled NOT leaving the house. Pick a lane, Doug.

He is a disgrace. Always has been. Why do we overlook his many flaws? Any party could do better. Any. Party., To think Conservatives have some kind of lock on good government is a myth. Huge myth.

We have to step up for each other, especially those who can. There is too much division manufactured to divide us especially around disability and class. It’s not just killing people but making their lives a tortuous existence where MAiD is the only option. We are better than this.

Doug Ford is an ableist bigot. His comments about ODSP were brutally ignorant. His base ate them up., Don’t vote Conservative. Conservatives are killing people. Will grandma be next? www.thespec.com/opinion/colu...

Starlink should be seen as a threat to national security here in Canada. Anything linked to people actively sabotaging a current government's communication infrastructure and casually talking about annexing our country should have no place carrying any of our potentially secure communication.
