Canadian artists are boycotting the important @sxsw.com musical festival in Texas.This is an unprecedented show of force by Canadian artists. Texas Governor Greg Abbott said Canada was going to be taught a lesson. Greg consider this a teaching moment: your state is an enemy of democracy and arts.

Since Jan 6 our world has turned upside down. Canada is under threat like never before. There are still 8 months left in this parliament. We can put aside our fights and come together for Canada. These are my thoughts on how normal politics is no more. charlieangus.substack.com/p/no-return-...

“That Only Us Command” 🇨🇦 ✊

Someone started a Petition to the Prime Minister to strip Muskrat of his Canadian Citizenship and I’m here for it. @charlieangus104.bsky.social www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

🇨🇦☀️🔌 Canada's sunniest city—also known as "gas city"—could soon be home to North America's largest urban solar power park. "The multi-stage project, if fully built-out, would be able to meet the peak load demand for the city’s industrial and commercial facilities as well as its 65,000 residents."

Hm, so glad to have a choice for PM who know the economy is better WITHOUT pollution. 👏👏👏🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

“Allowing a project this size to proceed without an environmental assessment is unacceptable" Eight First Nations and Environmental Defence, Keepers of the Water, the National Farmers Union and Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

“"Ukraine is an artificial state," Putin told Tucker Carlson in an interview in February 2024. The U.S.-Canada border is an "artificially drawn line," Trump said in a Jan. 7 news conference.”

Speaking truth to power. This is how you do it. Thank you @charlieangus104.bsky.social

““This happens when a well-funded individual, or a company using their large financial resources, go after someone who is saying things they want to silence,” Williams told CTV News.”

“If the government wants to convince us there was nothing improper here — and convince us that they are making decisions about health care that are 100 per cent about improving the system — then show us.”

True words.

“"Haida Gwaii belongs to you, the Haida people," he said, as the crowd cheered, clapped and rose to its feet. "This is only the beginning of a new chapter" between the Haida Nation and the Canadian government, Trudeau said.”

“former Alberta premier Peter Lougheed warned against sharing Canada's water supply with the United States, suggesting Alberta's most important resource was water, not oil and gas. “

The next likely Prime Minister of Canada, Mark Carney 🇨🇦 says that America is no longer our friend or ally, we are only connected geographically. This is who we want leading our country! #cdnpoli #peipoli

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

Good morning Bluesky ☀️🦋 from the Gulf of Mexico 🌊

Protecting Canada 🇨🇦 - "Our truck is reminding Canadians that no matter how many times Poilievre rebrands his image, he’s still the same politician who pocketed a rich $3.4M pension—paid for by you—while attacking pensions for hardworking families." #cdnpoli #peipoli

The bigger contest is still to come: sovereignty, economy, rights, environment, and opportunities for all Canadians to thrive. That’s what we fight for. #TeamCanada #CarneyForPM #FanjoyVsPoilievre #TogetherWeCan

“So, when our natural resources minister suggests a pipeline as the solution to U.S. tariffs, we should think twice. “

Which of these things is not like the others? Answer: The pink (🇨🇦 heavy oil) wedge is constant the others 🇺🇸🇺🇸 are shrinking past 2025… in no alternate universe will the 🇺🇸 take this reality lightly. #PeakOil2024

We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.” Who needs a gallon of ketchup?

The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the world’s poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

With the threat of a looming trade war with the United States, Vancouver city council convened a special meeting earlier this week and pledged to “buy local” and “buy Canadian.” @bychrischeung.bsky.social reports.

That sums up Poilievre nicely, too.

Of course they did 🤦‍♀️

80% of Canada's NATO spending directly benefits the United States! Mark J Carney 🇨🇦 says he will not promise to continue sending taxpayers dollars to the country that is currently threatening us! "We need to spend more of that money here in 🇨🇦 Canada." #cdnpoli #peipoli

We Stand On Guard For Thee 🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦

The oil industry spent more money fighting California’s climate policies last year than ever before, leaving taxpayers to foot the bill for disasters like the LA fires and accidents like the recent explosion in Martinez.

Millions of dollars in contracts. High-level corruption. Political interference and coverups. If the latest allegations are true, this is a scandal of epic proportions. Danielle Smith, it’s time to fire Adriana LaGrange. Alberta, it’s time to fire Danielle Smith and the UCP. Enough is enough.

“Some of these allegations make health-care procurement and contracting in Alberta in 2025 sound like something out of Chicago in 1925!”

Mark Carney 🇨🇦 - Canada's economy is poised to surpass the USA's despite looming trade wars. Nations worldwide are eager to increase trade with us. With the right leadership, Canada can capitalize on America's downward spiral! Let's get busy, Canada LET'S BUILD! #cdnpoli #peipoli

“This is the first of what will be many attempts to ignore reality and try to stall the world’s unstoppable and irreversible move to a clean energy economy.”

“This order removed AHS's power to negotiate private surgery contracts, and set out rates for surgical clinics that were pricier than in comparable contracts "and would lead to significantly increased costs to AHS — and potentially hundreds of millions in profits for the [facilities] owners,"

Thank you @albertawilderness.bsky.social for this #DayOfAction!
