Criminal Netanyahu continues to starve and kill the people of Gaza. He has no apparent desire to stop. He, Trump and Putin are three of the leaders of the new axis of evil.

The fallout from Carney's ~masterful gambit~ with Alberta continued today, when the Assembly of First Nations voted unanimously for it to be withdrawn.

All the while, Alberta has already found a new fight to pick with Ottawa (coincidentally, right after Danielle Smith was booed over the deal):

Aggrieved, as ever, to be living in Andy Fillmore’s Halifax. Especially when Waye Mason’s Halifax was *right* *there*.
In apparent violation of public meeting rules, Mayor Andy Fillmore hosted secret meeting with councillors and Construction Association of Nova Scotia to talk regional plan

I would like to particularly congratulate Coun. David Hendsbee for sending, in writing, an email stating "no reason to be suspicious about this, folks, we do meetings like this that plausibly break the law at least annually. It's great!"

ICYMI: I grilled Jesse Brown on his new series
Good morning. For this week’s episode of The North State, I sat down with @jessebrown.bsky.social and grilled him on his approach to his new series on antisemitism in Canada. What does Statistics Canada have to say about his attribution? Did he speak to law experts for his Heather Reisman interview?

Me thinks Canada should drastically invest in cycling infrastructure to keep the population healthy and to keep them away from needing healthcare.
In the Netherlands, where the Dutch invest in safe cycling, the over-65s cycle around a quarter of their journeys, while the over-80s cycle around 10% of theirs.

Low Traffic Neighbourhoods and cycle lanes don't 'restrict freedom', they expand it.

Pedantic or pressing? Jesse Brown defends attributing a statistic to Statistics Canada, Jews in Canada are 9x more likely to be a victim of a hate crime than in a Jew in the US, when they told me "This statement cannot be attributed to Statistics Canada."

Rana Zaman’s criticisms of Israeli policy and actions in Gaza are not, in any way, an indication of antisemitism, and certainly not a reason to rescind the Peace Award she deserves.

Yeah Halifax Water CFO is saying essentially that they are legally mandated to be sustainable (which in turn means that the lack of affordability in Halifax Water's rates is a direct result of the extremely high cost to service houses built in line with council's low density land use bylaws).
LMAO Fillmore's asking how Halifax Water considers affordability, even though like 20 minutes ago Halifax Water folks explained in great detail how strict legislation mandates what they can charge, who they can charge it to, and what they can charge for.

Fillmore is now asking if Halifax Water has considered being less sustainable to save money today even if it costs more later. 🙃🙃😭😭

My solution to save the NDP is to purge most of the decision makers and blacklist them from ever being involved with the party ever again. Anything less you’re just putting lipstick on a pig carcass.
