If the goal is to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons then it is incumbent on the government to present the evidence otherwise this is all bullshit.

Our government thinks we are stupid.
Look how easily they lie to us.
Iran was not pursuing a nuclear weapon. Our government knows this yet they still lie to our faces.

Carney confirms: When Washington whistles, Ottawa salutes The Canadian prime minister was quick to jump on the Iran war bandwagon, seemingly forgetting his own speech at Davos.

"Carney has now established that he is not a serious antidote to the politics of expediency that he promised to transcend. He is simply its more articulate custodian."

Blistering column from Andrew Mitrovica

The Carney government is also cutting prison librarians to save…$2.5m. This is now a theme with the federal budget - it’s not about cost savings, it’s about destroying access to knowledge and information. #Cdnhist

I make these comments all day, and most of the time people have no idea what I'm talking about, but it keeps me amused.

2015 for me

Tom Mulcair, former leader of the NDP, pushed the party to centre to get elected, but was outflanked on the left by Justin Trudeau.

He made a terrible pun in a debate: "Child care, health care, pharmacare, Mul-care."

It was his "Pokémon-Go-to-the-polls" moment.

Before or after Canada Pokemon-went-to-the-polls to pass judgement on Mul-care?

I just caught the last 10 minutes of the Wizards@Heat game.

Bam Adebayo, he of the career high 41 points, just scored 83 pts.

He was just chucking for those last 10 minutes, and the Wizards just kept fouling him.

NPD FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE March 10, 2026 Don Davies statement NDP Leader Don Davies issued the following statement: "We're very disappointed that Lori Idlout has decided to join the Liberal caucus. The position of the New Democrats on floor crossing is longstanding and clear. We believe that when someone rejects the decision of their electors and wants to join another party, they should put that decision to their voters. In a democracy, something as important as the choice of party representation in Parliament must always remain with our constituents. We believe that should happen here." - 30 -

BC Government Accused of a Stealth Attack on Freedom of Information | The Tyee The new bill includes ‘some really bad stuff,’ warn advocates and opposition.

MLAs with both the BC Conservatives and the BC Greens say the NDP’s Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Amendment Act, 2026, is part of a long-term erosion of access rights and will make it even harder for people trying to get information from the government.

‘Dark, like our future’: Iranians describe scenes of catastrophe after Tehran’s oil depots bombed Residents report terror of smoke-filled city, from potentially toxic rain, air and water to food scarcity and difficulty of escape

“Even masks are becoming difficult to find. This is a huge mistake. I ask those who have the ability, especially foreign media, to reflect on this situation. What are people supposed to do under these conditions? This is truly a crime against humanity.”

america and israel proving themselves to be the great evil iran always said they were

The cost of everything is going up again and they aren’t going to lower it when oil prices come back down to earth

Heard that one before 🙄

Having similarly dealt with far-right characters I’ve reported on engage in stalking / harassing behaviour to the point where lawyers needed to be engaged, I can say Canada’s laws are completely insufficient to deal with these problems and I have zero trust in the legal system to protect journalists

Mark Carney was just in Australia saying our two countries should have aligned strategies against global hegemons, right??

I didn't know he was here!

counterpoint: don't be a cop

mark has a story about very expensive wine and 7 course meals to help canadians struggling with affordability.

It's amazing people will claim "Canada and the USA have the same culture" and then on something as fundamental as "do you trust your fellow citizens to be good" we are further apart than any other two countries
