Everyone should be brushing up
On Naomi Klein’s ‘Shock Doctrine’ right now.

Disaster capitalism.

The project is a systems-thinking & capability-based planning critique. Core question: Can structured tools truly capture systemic interdependencies and improve risk-informed decision-making in practice, or do they oversimplify complex realities? (2/4)

Half of Canada be on fire right now

Anyone else experience major pre-trip anxiety in the form of tummy aches for a straight week?

They are living in an alternate reality, the mirror world and it feels so defeating.

Federal election, you are officially my last hope.

Any other Canadians having nightmares of Tesla's? Like from the scene in Leave the World Behind.

This looks vague as hell

Yes, EM should be led primarily at the local level in terms of response, but with RESOURCES. You can't just cut off top-down support without addressing the gaps in local resources, training, and expertise.

The takes I see on this issue, miss the mark... 🤦🏻‍♀️

I seem to not be seeing any fighting back?

California, Oregon, and Washington should join Canada 🇨🇦

Thank goodness 😅

Dear anyone working in science, health, emergency management, climate and weather, economics, social sciences etc. in the U.S. government.

Save your data, save your resources, save your research.

Anyone else downloading everything they can from the FEMA site such as resources. Archive everything.

"Ambushed" by a plea for mercy is a real language choice.

Sure is a bad time to be a person who cares about things.

Any Canadians feeling doomy gloomy today? Uncomfortable? Mortified? A fascist autocratic regime rising just 19km away from my home, it's not just another country, it's our neighbour, a stone throw away.

Thinking of our fellow humans who never asked for this, and those that did, FAFO

Who hasn’t been innocently hanging out at the inauguration of a man dubbed by people in his own party as the next Hitler and accidentally performed a Nazi salute that could only be more blatant if it was accompanied by a tiny finger moustache?

I'd like to eradicate the terminology "natural disasters" from the English language

Canada is stressed right now

Slide 1: On a green rectangle with darker green border, the Ontario logo. ...followed by the text "has, already, issued it’s first threats over MCCSS Funding, warning non-profits and agencies about the implications of the proposed Bill 238 (aka ‘the Emergency Management Modernization Act’).

Slide 2: On the same background and border with the Ontario logo. …followed by the text “If passed, Bill 238 would amend the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act to strengthen provincial emergency management coordination and leadership and support enhanced community emergency management capacity to ensure Ontario is ready for the challenges of today and the future. It would also authorize binding directives to be made to specified entities providing community and social services funded by the Ministry of Children, Community and Social Services.” Black text highlighted yellow: In context, binding directives to agencies and municipalities is very worrying. This means ideological edicts from the Province can override local decision-making and curb support for community initiatives from non-profits, service providers, and cities to support our unhoused neighbours.

Friends, the Ontario Government is already threatening MCCSS-funded agencies with the implications of Bill 238, the Emergency Management Modernization Act. We've published the core info and some commentary! 1/3

I am the epitome of a spiky profile. I made homeownership happen because I have been hyperfixated on this idea the last 18 months. Sometimes my brain disables me, sometimes it helps me do very adulty things.

So let me get this straight..Canada Post reports $748 million in losses, but Canada Post owns 91% of Purolator, who had $2.7 billion in revenue last year, and they can't afford union demands?

It was a Canada Post strike that led to us getting parental leave in in 1981. 💌 Support Postal workers 💗

Today's the day. Job interview for a permanent position (currently on contract) which would bring me so much security and stability, and I close on my house today and get my keys. I'm ready ❤️
