Of course Poilievre is standing by a candidate who made despicable comments about Indigenous people. When people show you who they really are, believe them.

Police in Rhode Island are saying someone died from fentanyl-laced cannabis based on preliminary drug testing done by the police, and I just want people to remember law enforcement is not qualified to perform drug testing or determine cause of death. It helps nobody to create unfounded drug panics.

CBC/Radio-Canada is a pillar of our Canadian identity. We’re going to strengthen our public broadcaster with more long-term funding, and a modernized mandate — to deliver more local news and keep Canadians better informed during emergencies.

Judging by the order they were presented on Trump’s weird chart, I’d be willing to bet it involved a dart board and/or dice but I’ll read the article anyway…

This is a small taste of what @rachelgilmore.bsky.social deals with on the regular — and this from a “journalist” with a public-facing account. You can’t imagine the things she gets sent anonymously. Conservatives opened the floodgates for this to be normalized. It’s not.

Really incredible to have CTV, an entire broadcast news outlet, say they 'don't have the bandwidth' to deal with the type of harassment that Rachel Gilmore deals with as an individual journalist all the time.

On this trans day of visibility, I'd like to re-submit this piece: the most heartening responses I have gotten have been from parents of trans kids, and how much it means to see how much courage Harriette displayed. It was an honour to tell the story.

Doctors in West Texas— where there is a measles outbreak—are seeing unvaccinated hospitalized patients with signs of vitamin A toxicity. This is a result of misinformation and is what happens when you appoint an anti-vaxxer to lead the national health agency.

I have just asked the Governor General to dissolve Parliament and call a federal election on April 28. We need to build the strongest economy in the G7. We need to deal with President Trump’s tariffs. Canadians deserve a choice about who should lead that effort for our country.

This isn’t a mystery Why do you have to read about it in Breitbart? Why aren’t mainstream media in Canada doing their jobs? Is it because they’re owned by American hedge funds and Canadian oligarchs?

The thing about this though is, yes it’s petty, but it’s also the U.S. telling us that we’re no longer friends, we can’t be trusted. That’s fucked up.
