Today is World Fisheries Day 🐟 and we’re proud to celebrate one of New Brunswick’s most important economic drivers. Our province is among Canada’s largest seafood exporters, generating $1.85 billion in export sales in 2024.

I like that one point plan.
Former Finnish PM Sanna Marin put it bluntly: “To end the conflict, Russia must leave Ukrainian territory.”

Just one point. Nothing more to discuss.

More Black women are evicted every year than Black men are incarcerated. For profit prisons are one of the leading funders of lobbying against tenants' rights ordinances and for strict no-fault eviction laws. The reason is simple: eviction feeds the carceral state.

We just learned that ICE has finally made it to my city in South Carolina. My friends & I are starting a private network to let each other know when and where ICE has been seen across the city so we can let others know. We have hispanic friends we love who are terrified. We stand WITH them. #RESIST

Europe's electricity system is changing rapidly and often in places that don't make the headlines.

Look at Estonia - not that long ago and fossil fuels dominated around 90% of electricity generation.

Today solar and wind eat more and more into the share of fossil fuel-generated electricity.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression
The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

Too many Veterans and military spouses struggle to find stable jobs after serving. That’s unacceptable.

I’ll work across the aisle to invest in job training, apprenticeships, and small business support for those who’ve served.

They're running from it now. But the fact that Senate Republicans tried to give 10 of their colleagues at least $1 million each for nothing but a bogus press op captures the corruption of Trump II. In no other environment wld this even occur to the most corrupt politicians.
