“We have women who are at the highest risk with the least income... getting a form of medication that’s not ideal for them, but that’s all that’s covered.” — Dr. Marie Christakis (@sinaihealthtoronto.bsky.social) on menopause & inequity of care, on an upcoming (MIS)Treated with @namshine.bsky.social
Canadians travelling to the US advised to not fucking do that
Rodgers left his hometown of Devon and travelled south to Rocky Mountain House. During that trip, his car became stuck in a ditch in the Sunchild First Nation. The following day, his burnt-out vehicle was found on an oil lease road in O’Chiese First Nation.
What’s one way we can rein in ICE?
We can start by boycotting ICE’s corporate collaborators that are profiting from the agency’s cruelty.
Watch.
At a time when climate variability, land-use intensification, & population growth are increasing stress on freshwater systems, approving high-volume, high-risk permits for water-taking is unacceptable.

Billionaires who lobbied Trump to halt Canadian bridge praise EZ-Bribe App
Screenshot of a NYT headline that says: 'Trump Administration to End Surge of Immigration Agents in Minnesota The announcement came more than two months into an operation that has led to tense protests, thousands of arrests and three shootings in the Democratic-led state.'
Let’s be clear: ICE leaving Minnesota is not justice. Justice is holding those responsible accountable for the lives lost and the devastation caused.
Here's the person who's been nominated to replace Chrystia Freeland in the upcoming byelection
Dr. Danielle Martin, Family Medicine Chair at UofT who has prescribed basic income.
“Being poor is actually a full-time job and being broke is like a full-time job with the amount of paperwork and the time going from office to office proving what you have done. . With Universal Basic Income all that would be eliminated with the time liberated to do something socially productive.” — David Graeber
We need to be talking about Universal Basic Income.
So THEORETICALLY if I started carrying a Bluetooth speaker on my commutes for the sole purpose of counterprogramming against douchebags playing their music without headphones on the TTC
...it's gotta be "Let It Go" from FROZEN, right?
Oh you mean untraceable, unregulated currency was used to do bad shit. Who could have predicted this. Who could have possibly told you repeatedly that this would happen.
Narwhal co-founder Carol Linnitt speaks at a press scrum outside the B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver
“As we stand outside this courthouse, stepping into five weeks of trial, we know the legitimate right of journalists to do their job, to perform their vital role in our democracy, is at stake.” — Narwhal co-founder Carol Linnitt on our case against the RCMP: thenarwhal.ca/press-freedom/

I’ve been thinking about this a lot as an artist trying to give my kids some cultural competency; my kids did not live through the height of AIDS, for example, and they have no context for the very moving art made of love and defiance during that period.
Obviously I can’t cover the context for every single period, but what I have been trying to teach them is to understand what they do not understand, and maybe more importantly to respect people who DO understand. Anyway AI art is part of the fascist project to strip context, STOP FUCKING HELPING

The prime minister promises he’ll solve climate change … right after he gets a new pipeline built. @balkissoon.bsky.social asks: haven’t we heard that one before?
About 83,000 women and girls were intentionally killed worldwide last year.
For the Ford government, it seems Ontario’s nature is important — until it gets in the way of development. The government creates new parks while paring back protections for others. @fatimabsyed.bsky.social asks: Why create a park if you won’t properly protect it? thenarwhal.ca/ontario-prov...
People riding bikes in a downtown Vancouver separated bike-lane
It’s really important that #Vancouver’s Downtown Business Association, who were originally against bike-lanes, are now among their most vigourous supporters, because of ACTUAL EVIDENCE that they’re better for downtown business than any street parking they replaced.
Safe bike-lanes mean business.
My quote from an Axios interview, stating that: People often think of climate change as a separate bucket at the end of a long row of other buckets of problems we're trying to fix that are wrong in the world," Hayhoe told Axios. This includes poverty, disease and access to clean water. "Climate change is not a separate bucket," Hayhoe said. "The reason we care about climate change is that it's the hole in every bucket."
If you take the time to read the whole Gates memo (which I did), the bulk of the content was mostly solid and encouraging. Really!
It was the FRAME that was off--very off, from the first line.
And when your framing is off, then how you make decisions and set priorities is off. THAT'S the problem.
the thing about bad zoning is that we could have a magical Star Trek-style housing replicator capable of making new homes for free and it *would not solve the problem* because the law would prohibit it from working
