Itβs been a tough few weeks for Canadian white nationalists.
I exposed a fascist fight club in Montreal (with a lil help from friends). The Canadian Anti-Hate Network unmasked users of a white supremacist dating app.
Who's next?
I had @antihate.caβs Evan Balgord on the show to discuss:
Hon. Anita Anand Minister of Foreign Affairs Nearly 8,500 Canadians, permanent residents and their family members have returned to Canada through direct and indirect routes from the Middle East. Yesterday, in response to the Government of Lebanon's request for humanitarian support, our government announced $37 million in funding to provide critical assistance in Lebanon, including food, medical and health services, and clean water. Canada continues to monitor the situation in the Middle East and remains in close contact with humanitarian partners to assess and respond to evolving needs. Due to the ongoing security situation in the region, some Canadian missions have limited in-person services. All offices in the region continue to provide essential services to Canadians, including consular support. We are also aware of delays affecting delivery of passports in certain parts of the region due to airspace closures. The gradual resumption of air travel will help address this issue.
Hereβs my (frighteningly vulnerable!!) follow up on my reporting that exposed a white nationalist active club.

Trying to use less plastic?
Big Oil and the plastics industry are spending billions to make sure everyone else uses more.
βI think what stood out most is the deliberateness and intentionality over the years of pushing plastic into our lives,β said @bethgardiner.bsky.social. βIt was such a shock."
I donβt think unconditional surrender is imminent.

My favorite moment from today.
Kyiv.
I hope that after the war ends, millions of people from all over the world will come to this city. And maybe hundreds of them will do so because of my posts π
This. This shit is why Canada is boycotting USA, lead by the people, not a directive. Even joking about it is extremely rude to us.
Ukraine has now helped the US, Israel, and the Gulf states protect civilians from Iranian drone strikes. As a special thank you, the US spoke to Putin and told him he's doing a great job in his invasion of Ukraine and lifted some sanctions on Russia. Great partnership.
Trump's US Energy Secretary Chris Wright:
"We have reached out to our friends in India to buy stored Russian oil. "
Israel and the US appear to want to do to Tehran what they have done to Gaza: reduce a busy and complex society to a toxic wasteland.

They're all living in bunkers now.
This Trump Administration won't leave legally or peacefully because they know they've committed crimes and will be - hopefully - held accountable.

The one good thing seen from them in years. ππ
The belief that we stand apart from nature is the root of our crisis. We breathe its air, drink its water, eat its cycles. Arrogance is poisoning your own well and being surprised you get sick. #OneHealth #Ecology
A Pew survey found that 53% of American adults describe the morality and ethics of our fellow citizens as βbad.β Meanwhile, in Canada, 92% say their fellow Canadians are good while just 7% say theyβre bad.
Why are we Americans so down on our fellow citizens?

Universities provide an interesting testbed for adopting innovative technologies. Here is Princeton using what appears to be a very large ground source heat pump with 2,000 (!) boreholes.

Be like the river:
Liberated of its past
Unconcerned about the future
Authentic in its present decisions
Infinitely flexible and spontaneous
Energetic by nature
Only truly as it is in this very moment
Already free
Be like the river. Flow.
