Poilievre just called CTV News’ Judy Trinh a “protester” because she dared try to ask him a question outside of the incredibly rigid four-questions-no-follow-up process his party has. Very cool stuff

We filed an amicus brief alongside @theintercept.com and 59 other media organizations and press freedom advocates to challenge Trump’s executive order threatening legal representation and press freedom. Read it here: theintercept.com/2025/04/09/t...

Oh hellooo

FACT CHECK: Canada Proud is run by Jeff Ballingall. These aren’t grassroots movements — they’re well-funded propaganda pipelines built to smear opponents and flood your feed with rage bait and falsehoods. They’re part of the same operation Poilievre’s team has brought on to run digital comms.

BMO: “.. The ‘Buy Canadian’ movement is deepening .. We judge that this shift in attitudes could add roughly $10 billion to the Canadian economy annually, lifting growth by 0.3 ppts (+/- 0.2 ppts).” 🇨🇦

Is he dead yet?

Hey Carleton, Over 300 of Bruce Fanjoy’s signs were destroyed or stolen IN ONE NIGHT. You can’t tell me this was random and you can’t tell me the good people of Carleton approve of this childish nonsense in support of Poilievre. Send the bully and his thugs packing. Vote Fanjoy. #cdnpoli

Douglas Adam's (The Hitch Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy) always had a unique perspective on things. And sometimes, he was more "right on the money" than he ever knew.

Yes, the stock market may be tanking and our national security apparatus has never been more vulnerable and we're on the verge of both economic collapse and war, but it was all worth it to keep pronouns out of email signatures.

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: It has come to my attention that several agencies are now offering WiFi for you to use with your PERSONAL devices. If I were you, I would NOT use that WiFi. I suspect it's a way for DOGE to monitor your personal communications.

How can we expect to have a country of highly educated individuals when most of our science-backed and peer reviewed articles exist behind a paywall? Meanwhile, all the misinformation and intentionally biased news is easily available and always free. #OpenAccess #ScienceForAll #FreeScience

I’m hearing from Social Security recipients in MA who’ve been marked as "not currently receiving payments,” on the Social Security website. Social Security is something you are legally entitled to. Elon's attack on Social Security is illegal—and it's hurting people.

It's rare in defamation cases that you can draw a straight line between someone lying about you and you losing work. But, um, not in this case.
