Speeches are great but a reminder that what we're getting here in Canada so far is:
* Tax cuts for the wealthy
* Militarization and more surveillance powers
* More oil, less action on climate change.
* Austerity and cuts to the public service
* Deals with authoritarian regimes

Those of us in water abundant countries like Canada and the U.S. may take this for granted, but global freshwater imbalances are a growing geopolitical risk, intensified by the climate crisis
Climate change, pollution and decades of overuse pushed the world into a state of “water bankruptcy,” leaving billions of people without enough water to meet their basic needs.

"Abolish ICE" is the moderate position. "Try everyone involved in ICE for crimes against humanity" is the progressive one.

At this moment in history, when the Trump admin is trying to cynically divide certain Jews as "good refugees" from other "bad refugees," it's worth remembering that the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting was caused by the synagogue's work for HIAS. It was both an antisemitic and anti-immigrant attack.
The Trump administration has discussed offering asylum to Britain’s Jewish population, a lawyer for the president has said.

Planning to take medicine to help you get through the workday tomorrow? If you’re not feeling well, some medicines might help you feel better but will not keep you from spreading illness to others! Continue to stay home and away from others as much as you can, and wear a mask if you have to go out.

Research shows COVID raises cardiovascular risk for up to 3 years. Reinfection extends that risk window, adding cumulative strain on the heart and blood vessels.

JFC this is an awful take.
Should Carney participate in Trump's "Board of Peace"? My initial thought (subject to change) is YES. Because Canada must always be perceived to be a voice of peace, even in the most compromised of settings. When it fails, it can't be because we did not participate. Again, just an initial thought.

This wasn't a reasonable screwup, or even just a group whose egos outgrew their scientific competence. Even if they'd been *right*, it would have been unreasonable to insist they *knew* COVID wasn't airborne in 2020.

I'm delighted to endorse Avi for NDP leader.
He is smart, principled, and a force of nature. His commitment to building power for progressives in Canada is critical to strengthen the NDP.
Avi's vision for a safer, cleaner and more just Canada couldn't come at a more important moment in history.

I'm honoured to have the support of six amazing climate leaders from across the country and around the world.
Climate impacts are stealing lives, costing billions, and only getting more intense.
Our politics needs an injection of urgency: a climate emergency plan. A Green New Deal.

“you didn’t give me the peace prize so now i’m just taking whatever i want”
![NEW: @potus letter to @jonasgahrstore links @NobelPrize to Greenland, reiterates threats, and is forwarded by the NSC staff to multiple European ambassadors in Washington. I obtained the text from multiple officials:
Dear Ambassador:
President Trump has asked that the following message, shared with Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, be forwarded to your [named head of government/state]
“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hbpefio3f5csc44msmbgioxz/bafkreie7itpptx3xbxhpsnlaqmwk752h7pcrion5ija2apksljtax2adx4@jpeg)
