CATURDAY: Declawed cats have amplified pain. New data shows that each step, every shift of weight, and each delayed reaction hint at long-term consequences of what should be considered an inhumane procedure.

@stevenguilbeault.bsky.social beaucoup d’habitants de Laurier-Ste-Marie (j’y habite) ont voté pour vous pour vos convictions sur l’environnement, pas pour votre appartenance au PLC.
Pensez-y avant les prochaines élections!

« Quand le ministre Roberge nous dit «c’est comme ça qu’on vit au Québec», de quoi parle-t-il?

Des politiciens qui, pour des gains électoraux, préfèrent miser sur la peur de l’autre plutôt que d’investir dans l’amour pour nos histoires? »

Le virus Trump a infecté le gouvernement caquiste: Roberge s’acharne sur les immigrants, particulièrement les musulmans. Legault pense que c’est une bonne idée d’avoir un pipeline. Drainville lâche l’environnement!

Pour éviter la pandémie, je préconise leur retrait et leur isolement.

Time for you to resign. We had high hopes and didn't think you would sell out the environment like this. This is an enormous step backward and you have failed Canadians with this agreement that fools exactly no one. Assuming Canadians are stupid and won't see through this is deeply insulting.

Steven, cross the floor. I did not vote Liberal to get a conservative gov't corrupted by fossil fuel money.
This afternoon, I informed the Prime Minister of my decision to resign as Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture, Minister responsible for Official Languages, Minister of Nature and Parks Canada, as well as his Lieutenant in Quebec.

You can find my full statement below.

Merci @stevenguilbeault.bsky.social. J’espère que vous ne serez pas le seul. Tant qu’à faire, vous pouvez quitter le PLC qui a passé plusieurs sapins aux canadiens récemment.

2016 happened. Russia did support Trump’s campaign. Good reporters were on it at the time. I wrote it up within the larger context of global oligarchy and neo-fascism in "Road to Unfreedom."
9 years ago,House Speaker Paul Ryan, and Speaker to be Kevin McCarthy had a recorded conversation in which McCarthy says, "There are two people that I think Putin pays, (Representative Dana) Rohrbacher and Trump. Swear to God."

So the PM intended to inform B.C.'s premier once the negotiations with Alberta have been finalized?

Nation-building promised, sausage-making delivered.

Regardless of whether this pipeline will ever be built, the process itself is profoundly damaging.

Yes, there’s an unfortunate typo: it should be « anti-science ».
To be clear: he is in no way a "man in science." The entire premise here is laughable.
Over many interviews, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Michael Scherer about how he plans to remake America’s public-health system. Can he lead the scientific establishment he’s spent much of his life crusading against?

I don't understand how anyone can watch how blatantly Grok is manipulated to answer the way ownership desires it to and then act like the other LLM chatbots couldn't possibly be similarly but less obviously compromised to produce responses in whatever way corporate interests and priorities dictate.
