1/ Today, the Carney government joined the Conservatives and the Bloc to defeat @jennykwan.bsky.social's No More Loopholes Bill — legislation that would have stopped Canadian weapons sent to the U.S. from being used to fuel the genocide in Gaza.
Canadians are being crushed by the cost of living while those at the top hoard obscene wealth.
We need a government with the courage to tax that wealth and invest it in what we actually need.
That’s how we build a strong, independent economy that can stand up to Trump and work for all of us.

Just a Canadian billionaire backing American tariffs while using AI as a cost cutter. This is who benefits from untaxed wealth while working people are being told to accept less. #WealthTaxNow
I grew up loving Dick Van Dyke. I am so disgusted and disappointed in who he's actually turned out to be.
@SlyFoxSyndicate - Chronic pain is a trip because you have to simultaneously hyper focus on physical discomfort to monitor your health and pain levels while also trying to completely ignore pain in general. I will freak out over a new twinge or sensation of pain because I worry about it being more nerve damage or a new health problem. On the flip side, I actively ignore pains of know origin that don't go above a 5 on the pain scale; sometimes I won't realize something is actually serious until an injury is bleeding all over my carpet or half a broken tooth falls out of my mouth.
Never forget, he did this and then he slashed the WAGE budget. Women’s services and programs have never been so underfunded in this country, since Harper.

Grandpa Simpson talking to the kids
“Gather around 🇨🇦 kids, let me tell you a story about the last time a Liberal Prime Minister tried to join 🇺🇸 in a war in Iraq. Grandma & Grandpa w/ our cheap alcohol & optimism boarded a bus to Montréal & protested w/ 150k of our friends & Chrétien did not join that war. Now it’s your turn.” #cdnpoli
It’s been nearly a year since we had a real Women’s Minister who was replaced by whatever

1/ The images coming out of Iran are already unbearable. Reports of an elementary school struck by missiles, killing dozens of people, with scores more killed around the country. Fear and chaos in the streets as families run through smoke and search for safety.
If your name isn't on a place card at the table, maybe check the menu. Just sayin'.
There is A LOT to unpack from the decision about former Chilliwack school trustee Barry Neufeld issued last week.
I broke some of it down on video, including the massive $750,000 fine and the tribunal's excellently worded takedown of "gender ideology" rhetoric

@PanickedFoodie I'd love to see a research study detailing the rates of depression and anxiety *caused by* interactions with medical professionals and the healthcare system
Source: insidestory1 on tumblr - One of the terrifying things about chronic illness is watching time slip away from you. You spend almost all of your time just surviving, and like that you watch days turn into months and months turn into years and the time you have in which to do things slip away from you. But the pain and fatigue and the shear difficulty of living won't let up enough for you to actually live your life, so you just have to keep watching it pass you by.

Not even one quote from the person the story was about. Would you do this to any other athlete? Shame.
That face though 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Knitty responds to the CBC’s so called fact-check and destroys them. Her research stands. Harper and Associates were in the Epstein files whether Canadian media or Canadian law enforcement wants to acknowledge that or not. We understand now what kind of country we live in.

This is the way. When they come at us, we come back at them twofold. Raise that Pride flag every time they take it down. If they prevent that, surround the park with Pride flags. Ruin their petty little lives until they shit rainbows. Never stop. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/n...
be loudly anti-racist not quietly non-racist
No one except the people who murdered them, their colleagues and peers, their employers and leadership, and at least a third of the voting population in your nation.
And of the ones who oppose such murders sure don't seem to have done a whole lot to prevent it, address it, or deter a recurrence.
Sorry for your loss, I hope you can find comfort with loved ones
