Morning from Kyiv! I will tell you a short story of how the ceasefire started (it had to begin today). Oh, it was a 'brilliant' start. russia attacked Ukraine with 108 drones overnight. The end of the ceasefire story. I've had my morning #warcoffee.

Billionaires like Trump and Musk don’t have a clue what it means for working families when it becomes too expensive to buy your kid a birthday present.

Friendly reminder: "It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it" You can understand someone without agreeing with them. You can try to figure out what makes them tick without liking them, or thinking they're right.

The worst form of addiction that this country now faces is the greed of the oligarchy.

The "Notwithstanding Clause" was Canada's constitutional compromise. Intended as a rare exception, it's becoming dangerously routine. And Pierre Poilievre's threat to invoke it raises troubling questions. #cdnpoli #canada ✅ WATCH MY VIDEO: youtu.be/2HKeysUYrTI

Everything is bad but birds are good so time to reinstitute BIRD PROTOCOL where a bird is deployed to offset endless evil vibes, please enjoy, birds are good, okay bye (photo by me)

I don't want to alarm anyone, but reliable sources say a large caravan of penguins is headed toward our Southern border. 🐧

The Netanyahu government has killed 50,000 people in Gaza & wounded 112,000. Two weeks ago, they broke the ceasefire and have since killed 322 children & wounded 600. The US must end its complicity. Tomorrow, I will force votes to block $8.8 billion in arm sales to Netanyahu.

The economy is going to tank so bad. If only we had an economist, who has experienced international financial crises before, running to be the next PM of Canada.

Real fear.

The voice of reason that comforts me these days. Thank you Tod Maffin.

Canada will be okay. Our history proves it. I don’t usually asks for reposts but both video sites restricted this… because of a 1-sec clip of Rene Lévesque smoking. If you like this video, it would help a lot if you could recommend this to your followers. #cdnpoli ❤️ youtu.be/DhHqksh51_U

Every time you see someone powerful acting like a craven coward in the face of this authoritarian menace, let it stiffen your own spine. We are all we've got.

Come watch the video YouTube Analytics says has "views" which are "longer"! www.youtube.com/watch?v=M58F... (But seriously, watch it. I spent more than a week making it, and I'm really proud of it.)

◦ DEVELOPING ◦ Canadian member of parliament warns Canadians to "avoid travel to the U.S." Paraphrasing: 'Police are pulling over citizens and harassing them for being Canadian. Phones are being seized and searched. That is the creep of fascism.' www.youtube.com/watc...

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I am here today to urge Canadians to avoid travel to the United States if at all possible and to call on our government to stand up for our citizens who are being denied their rights through arbitrary detention in the United States.

America, get your shit together… BEFORE YOU GET US ALL FUCKING BLOWN UP.

Attacking a politician's family makes you a gigantic piece of garbage. Doesn't matter what side you're on. Family is off limits. The conservatives are dooming themselves even more with this. Open bigotry and targetting family members is only going to make them seem more petty and cruel.

🔴 𝗡𝗘𝗪: FACT-CHECKING THE LEADERS Is #Poilievre exaggerating Canada's #immigration reality? I'll help you separate rhetoric from facts. While Poilievre claims Trudeau's immigration policies are "out of control," the data tell a different story. #cdnpoli www.youtube.com/watc...

Tariff-free joy flows from Canada to the world—receive this heartfelt and positive export from the land of resilience and love. 🍁🧡 (and forward the positive vibes)

Americans, what are you, personally, doing to stop this? Today your president asked for plans to be made to invade Panama, threatened to invade Greenland and once again threatened Canada's sovereignty. Inaction is complicity. #elbowsUp

Trump: "To be honest with you, Canada only works as a state. We don't need anything they have. As a state it would be one of the great states. This would be the most incredible country visually. If you look at a map, they drew an artificial line right through it."

📌I can't tell you how much heart I am taking from these Jewish protestors who have marched on Trump Tower today to oppose the administration's kidnapping of Mahmoud Khalil, saying forcefully and rightfully, "Opposing fascism is a Jewish tradition." RIGHT ON ✊🏼

Hundreds of predominantly Jewish protestors crowd the lobby of Trump Tower NYC in a sit in. This is what resistance looks like. This is the energy we need to be carrying forward. #OccupyEverywhere

I’m sorry, can someone explain to me why the President of the United States was gloating about his plans to take over a sovereign nation… WHILE THE FUCKING HEAD OF NATO SAT THERE SIMILING?! NATO, for fuck’s sake. I will endeavour to never spend a single dime in America, for the rest of my life.

“If you look at a map, they drew an artificial line right through it, between Canada and the U.S., just a straight artificial line. Somebody did it a long time ago, many many decades ago, and it makes no sense.” — Donald Trump, today. And the head of NATO laughed. HE. LAUGHED.

Shin Bet (Security Service) is Israel's internal security service. Its motto is "Magen v'lo Yera'eh" ('the unseen shield'). It is one of three principal organizations of the Israeli Intelligence Community, alongside Aman (military intelligence) and Mossad (foreign intelligence service).

It’s borderline criminal.

"There was a mass shooting tonight in Canada." That's a sentence you don't hear often, but it's true. It happened. I have some thoughts about guns and grief... and the measure of a nation. www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNqB...

Netanyahu’s extremist government has halted ALL humanitarian aid into Gaza. Starving children is a war crime. UN leaders said: "International humanitarian law is clear: we must be allowed access to deliver vital lifesaving aid. We need to get aid in and the hostages out.”

A little reflection about what Canadians are really like. #dontmakeabeavermad
