Having watched Hamilton Police Board meetings, author Randy Kay is absolutely correct in his very well written assessment and in his concerns.

Thanks to The Hamilton Spectator for publishing it.

Canada will 'never participate' in Iran offensive, Carney says — The Canadian Press Prime Minister Mark Carney told MPs in the House of Commons Tuesday that Cana

Nobody is asking the right questions, which are about how Carney’s agenda for a military focused economy will inevitably make Canada increasingly complicit in all conflicts, regardless of whether we are directly participating or not.

Royal Canadian Air Force Major Discovered on White Supremacist Dating Site The Canadian Anti-Hate Network has identified over 190 Canadian users of a white supremacist dating website, including a Royal Canadian Air Force Major.

Like who is actually responsible for this and how do we get it to stop?

Why is J Edgar Hoover on your phone?!

This is fucking heartbreaking. It’s an abomination. Public libraries are one of the last free indoor spaces open to everyone. I practically lived there when my kid was little. The scumbags want to defund and privatize our libraries. How dare they.

The right wing fixation on playgrounds and childhood today makes obvious that it’s not about any kind of reality; it’s much more about their desire to prey on children. As they unfortunately keep proving over and over.

Seeing that no press freedom orgs have rushed to defend and help @rachelgilmore.bsky.social makes me ask, for the millionth time, what do CJFE, PEN, etc even do? Why exist at all when you do fuck all to fight censorship and intimidation?

I too remember the earlier, woke wars. tons of spent microaggression munitions strewn about everywhere, friends crying out for God as they were slowly cancelled...look, if you weren't there, you'll never understand

This time I know our side will win.

@socialistdogmom.bsky.social I usually listen to your episodes on my Thursday drive to my specialist in another city. I am very glad I wasn’t driving while listening today. Vale, Raymond Turner.

Carney says he supports US invading Iran, Cuba, and possibly Canada "with some regret" "It's a good thing that Trump is the most peaceful president in history who ends all wars, right?"

I'm deeply concerned upon reading this article from the CBC today. As such, and as a police board member, I have brought this matter to the attention of the Board and have asked my colleagues to reconsider the motion asking for an independent external review. #HamOnt

Abject fuckery. What recourse do we have?

The ongoing saga of Const. Renato Greco, an officer in the Hamilton Police Service and, apparently, an active white supremacist.

Not a great look for HPS, especially considering the rise of violent neo-fascist extremist groups in the region.
