Lawsuits are expensive. Unlike Ken, Sean wasn't elected as a wealthy man with friends in high places. But he does have you.
If you don't have much to give, give $16 (the number of times Ken apologized in one interview). If you have more, please give more.

When the BC Conservatives voted for a bill to repeal the human rights code, the NDP caucus promptly put out a press release slamming the Cons who "couldn’t muster the courage to stand against it."
Today, 0 NDP MLAs mustered the courage to vote against a bill to close all BC's safe consumption sites

After considerable soul-searching, I feel compelled to withdraw from the BAFTA emerging talent judging panel. The organisation's handling of the unfortunate Tourette's N-Word incident last night at the awards was utterly unforgivable. I cannot and will not contribute my time energy and expertise to an organisation that has repeatedly failed to safeguard the dignity of its Black guests, members and the Black creative community. This is particularly unfortunate given that this year's cohort boasts some incredible Black talent, especially one of my favourite shows of 2025 "Just Act Normal". However, when an organisation like BAFTA, with its own long history of systemic racism, refuses to acknowledge the harm inflicted on both the Black and disabled communities and offer an appropriate apology, remaining involved would be tantamount to condoning its behaviour. I hope BAFTA leadership comprehend the damage they and the BBC have caused and take the necessary steps to ensure their production staff are inclusive enough to prevent such an issue in the future. Yours sincerely, Jonte Richardson
Black filmmaker Jonte Richardson says he is stepping down as a BAFTA judge:
Delroy Lindo told Vanity Fair that he and Michael B. Jordan “did what we had to do” while presenting but that he also wished “someone from BAFTA spoke to us afterward”
"We don't have an idea yet as to motive," the RCMP just said.
So anyone claiming to know why this happened right now is full of shit.
Stop listening to disgusting ghouls with hateful agendas.
The US campaign to starve Cuba of fuel should be understood as genocidal. They are targeting a whole nation, deliberately destroying conditions necessary for life, in flagrant violation of international law. Pure barbarism, there is no other way to describe it.

. @votetanille.bsky.social's Indigenous reconciliation and empowerment plan is a powerful, inspiring document.
It’s a vision rooted in the deep ground of First Nations, Inuit and Métis rights.

There are fountains of wealth being generated in this country. But that wealth isn't trickling down to working people. It’s all stuck at the top.
Our 'Tax Plan for the 99%' takes on the corporate hoarding class – to redistribute wealth and raise the floor for all of us.

I visited Gaza in 2009, just months after the Cast Lead massacre. What I saw then shocked and changed me — and there are no words for what has been destroyed now.
We need to end this genocide and dismantle Israel’s apartheid system.
My conversation with @smohyeddin.bsky.social.
David Suzuki endorses Avi Lewis for NDP Leader. Quote: "Avi Lewis understands what this moment demands. His life’s work reflects a deep commitment to social justice, ending poverty, and confronting the climate emergency with honesty rather than delay. At a time when courage is in short supply in Ottawa, we need leaders willing to speak plainly about what science tells us and act accordingly."
I’m deeply grateful to have the support of David Suzuki. For decades, he’s been a clarion voice on climate, calling on Canada to listen to science, nature, and Indigenous teachings. His fire only burns brighter with time. The hour is late: we need to get to work.

But no, not Prime Minister @mark-carney.bsky.social!
Not the man appointed as Bank of Canada Governor during the Harper years! Right?
Federally the Green Party has collapsed and the NDP has become liberal. Here's why I support Avi Lewis for NDP leader. To Green supporters and NDP supporters and those who have abandoned the NDP, please join to support Avi Lewis and the best of both parties.
Israel has lost its narrative war.
Free Greta Thunberg and the rest of the illegally detained flotilla activists.
On Friday, the ultranationalist minister suggested that Israel would be better off throwing the flotilla participants in prison for several months rather than immediately deporting them back to their home countries. Security prisoners - those incarcerated for offenses that intentionally harm national security - are housed separately from criminal prisoners and are not eligible for many of the benefits available to the general prison population. The term is a catch-all term applied to detainees, convicted prisoners and terrorists, and administrative detainees who are held without charges for extended periods, without trial.
"We are in Ketziot prison, and as I promised, those flotilla members, supporters of terrorism, are here in a security prison," Channel 14 reported Ben Gir as saying. "They receive conditions for terrorists here, for everything, terrorist sweatpants, terrorist conditions. This means, there is a minimum of the minimum, that's what I promised and that's how we are fulfilling it."
The Times of Israel reports that Greta Thunberg & her fellow Flotilla crew are being held in a special "terrorist" section of Ketziot prison—or in "terrorist conditions," as Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel's Minister of National Security put it.

Italian journalist Lorenzo Agostino tells @anadoluagency:
— Greta Thunberg, just 22, was humiliated, wrapped in an Israeli flag and paraded like a trophy.
— They seized every chance to degrade us
— I felt I was in a truly barbaric place

Yahya Barzaq, photographing a baby
Say his name: Yahya Barzaq, one of the 275+ journalists killed in Gaza. He was known as one of the most prominent photojournalists still alive in Gaza. Prior to the genocide, he was known for gently photographing newborn babies.
This is the guy who’s supposedly buying Tik Tok. What could go wrong?
It's not fascist to call fascists fascist.
It's not "dehumanizing" to say that terrorizing entire groups of people - which ICE does - is evil.
No executive order can change these facts.
However, people *can* mess things up for fascists by standing up for community and truth. Like this.
I think the piece that is the most deadly in today's Canada Post announcement is that the feds are allowing the corporation to end mail shipping via air unless the mail is deemed important. This will mean that it will take forever to mail stuff with regular fare.
I really can’t believe that this is where we’re at with a former civil liberties dude.
