This is a big one for me.
The circumventing of labour strikes via strike breaking by the Feds has been huge.
Your bosses have ways of making your worklife hell. Poor pay, demotions, relocation, etc.
As workers, we have one weapon. The removal of our labour.
Time for government to respect that.
Hey @maritstilesndp.bsky.social!
This is absolutely how you get the message across.
More of this out of the ONDP!
The social media team is killing it!
I love the Northern Ontario mention - not many folks are aware that the more that Ford wastes down south, the worst things are up here!

Aaaand it looks like it was voted down.
Turns out we don't mind transferring arms to the US for cash and fueling their war crimes, and terror tactics.

Stop Moving Right, Start Organizing Left
Canada is heading toward a soft two-party system while a cost-of-living gap deepens. The answer isn’t technocratic centrism—it’s a left popular front rooted in kitchen-table economics and class.
I really wish someone could explain to the vast majority of Ontarian voters that the removal of revenue generation (license plates, LCBO, etc.), is the reason why Ontario's finance are spiraling and why you're paying more for way less.
But hey, let's bring up Bob Rae and keep doing the same shit.
Natalie Wilkie cross-country skiing on a groomed snowy trail, wearing a red Canada racing suit with white maple leaf designs, a red headband, reflective blue sunglasses, and bib number 118 with the Hyundai logo and Paralympic symbol. She pushes forward with ski poles, one ski angled ahead in the track while the other lifts slightly. Snow fills the background with faint parallel ski grooves visible across the course.
Congratulations to Natalie Wilkie, who picked up bronze in Para Cross-Country Skiing today! This is her third medal, and second bronze, of the Paralympics so far!
In 2018, she won three medals (1G, 1S, 1B) and in 2022 she won four medals (2G, 1S, 1B).
Voting for the Federal NDP leadership has opened today!
I'm impressed with how smooth online voting was and that the party has embraced ranked choice.
@avilewis.ca was my 1st choice, followed by @votetanille.bsky.social.
Today was a good day, so far.
Voting has begun and I was excited to cast my ballot.
Avi Lewis and his team have built something powerful. They have raised a record amount in donations, brought hundreds of people together at events, and put forward a bold progressive vision that leaves no one behind and brings everyone along.
Kind of crazy that a journalist has been threatened by Nazis for doing journalism and we’re not seeing widespread condemnation!
@rachelgilmore.bsky.social does amazing work investigating the far-right in Canada. It's terrifying the lengths they go to stalk.
The fact that our MSM and press orgs have nothing to say about the safety of investigative journalism in Canada is incredibly eye-opening.
The silence is complacency.
So, their case on the system being wasteful and fraudulent is false. If you've only found or only investigated 900 cases, I wouldn't consider that an actionable amount of fraud w this level of reform.

Btw, just in case the Ford government tries to tie its reforms to OSAP to alleged rates of fraud.
They quietly released their raw numbers. They successfully audited 900 cases of OSAP fraud.
Which is approximately 0.2% of total OSAP cases.
Disgrace of a premier.

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t
I can't fucking believe we're doing this again.
Another score of American children earmarked to be sent to the Middle East to bump some weapon manufacturing and energy company stocks. Blood and lives for stock options and higher dividends.
How many more will die this round, America?
How much money to muffle the cries of the war-torn and dead?
scrawny 18-year-old about to fall out of an army helicopter over tehran: this is so epic. this is totally sigma, right babe?
AI e-girl operated by a balding intelligence officer in virginia: that's right baby, Iran is totally cringe
Holyyy.
It's a cold one out there today.
Bundle up if you're in Northern Ontario today. 🥶
#northernontario
Place your bets:
The Supreme Court says no way to tariffs.
Corps will sue the Feds for "lost profits" caused by this stupid tariff war.
Feds will pay out w US tax $$.
Corpos will keep prices at tariff levels alongside their payout.
Capital wins.
US workers affected the most get the shaft.
History may not repeat, but sometimes she rhymes a bit too fucking close for comfort.
Two library books standing up showing their spines. Atomic Spy by Nancy Thorndike Greenspan and The Third Reich at War by Richard J. Evans.
Went to my little public library and got some good reads. On a non-fiction kick lately.
Always support your local public library! 📖
Also what are you fine folks reading?

Three panel comic. Panel 1: baby monkeys in overalls jumping on a bed, having fun. Panel 2: one of the monkeys falls over the edge of the bed, reaching out as he falls. Panel 3: one of the other monkeys, now looking super buff and badass, grabs him by the arm to save him heroically. “Monkey Stronger Together.”
Sorry folks, continued existence just doesn't fit within our expected quarterly margins.
So...unfortunately, we're going to have to let a few hundred million of you die.
Capitalism drives our continued dive into hell. We must name power and class as the antagonist of the working class.
My heart goes out to Tumbler Ridge, B.C. Devastating news.

There have been moments in this NDP leadership race that have honestly given me hope.
How respectful - even if we disagree on certain points - each candidate has been, reminds me of a time when we had respect in our politics.
There is hope in this wild world of ours after all lol.
We in the NDP can’t lose sight of Indigenous issues.
Our plan would:
☑️Close the infrastructure gap on First Nations
☑️Uphold the principles of free prior and informed consent
☑️ Deliver funding for community policing
☑️ Fully fund Jordan’s Principle

"A tax plan for the 99%" in bold text above a flag reading "LEWIS for leader" on a yellow background.
There are fountains of wealth being generated in this country. But that wealth isn't trickling down to working people. It’s all stuck at the top.
Our 'Tax Plan for the 99%' takes on the corporate hoarding class – to redistribute wealth and raise the floor for all of us.
Join us: lewisforleader.ca
My dream for Ontario: Avi in the Fed, Marit in the Prov. 😎
Fed. wealth tax + wealth redistribution policies to feed the working class.
Massive funding for pub. ed/health/housing provincally.
Ontario, let's fight for OUR future together! 🚫 to oligarchs!
