The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice. As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree. Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich. Silencing us impoverishes the whole world. The WA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

The sky is a pale blue mixing with shade of orange from light to dark at the horizon where trees on the opposite bank manage to catch the rays of light in their tops. The water looks blue a reflection of orange from above. Green plants and algal mats surround broken brown rocks on the left and center towards the bottom of the photo. The sun is going down and water is quieting.
As the sun departed. A peaceful evening began on a river running low. Sunset on the Maumee River tonight. #sunset #water #nature #ohio

"We combed through the records and found that Poilievre has voted against workers over 500 times. One throwaway line about workers doesn’t undo that record. It’s not a slip-up, it’s a strategy. Poilievre’s platform shows he’s determined to leave workers behind." #cdnpoli
