I see this and think “holy shit, school curriculums need a massive overhaul” - it is not healthy for a functioning democracy to have this level of misunderstanding.

A very important long term goal for Canada. Ireland has experience of a neighbour losing its mind, and thankfully we had diversified enough at that point we could basically tell them to pound sand when they demanded special treatment.

These get confused with one another. Journalism is a social practice: reporting the news. The Media is the attention business. The product is audiences. The Press is an institution that endures over time as people come in and out. The news industry is a seller of information with recency value.

Turns out today is ANOTHER good day for Pierre Poilievre to prove to Canadians that he’s actually capable of passing the standard & normal security check, & get the security clearance that he’s refused to get. Until he does, I’m continuing to assume that it’s because he knows that he can’t pass it.

“Someone with a 1-hr car commute needs to earn 40% more to be as happy as someone with a short walk to work. On the other hand, if someone shifts from a long commute to a walk, their happiness increases as much as if they’d fallen in love.” #CityMakingMath 50 reasons to want more walkable streets.

For example. My mother, who does not watch news, had a speaker at her Toronto area church on the wknd. This person explained how the USAID cuts were impacting the church’s volunteer work with AIDS persons in Africa. My mother heard every word. And is telling all her friends about it.

After Elon Musk has been insinuating to turn off Starlink in Ukraine, Poland‘s Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski is reminding Musk that Poland is paying for it, and he is making clear that if Musk follows through that Poland will abandon Starlink altogether for being an unreliable service.

He has just made it very likely that no military organisation will allow themselves to be placed in such a situation again. Why would Starlink ever be seen as an assured, trusted service?

This remains one of my favourite retaliatory strategies: Ban US coal trans-shipments that use Canadian ports for export. Instead, retrofit Roberts Bank (Westshore Terminals) to export more Canadian crude (on an expanded TMX) instead of US coal. What say you, Jimmy Pattison? Feeling patriotic?

Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished
