Billie Eilish during her #GRAMMYs speech for Song of the Year:

“As grateful as I feel, I don’t need to say anything except that, no one is illegal on stolen land. It’s really hard to know what to say and what to do right now, I feel hopeful in this room and we need to keep protesting… fuck ICE.”

Canadians horrified by what ICE is doing should realize the RCMP uses the same tactics domestically against Indigenous people and yet barely anyone speaks up.

Journalists have been arrested just for trying to cover it
Carol Linnitt, co-founder and editor-in-chief, provides an update on The Narwhal’s court case against the RCMP. Amber Bracken finished cross-examination late Jan. 28. It took more than 12 hours.

I guess unemployment isn't that bad because I don't think I'd be able to focus on work like this.

Don't lose sight of what's currently happening in Alberta as our premier fangirls over Carney for her beloved pipeline and the separatist petition gains traction. 2SLGBTQ+ books are quietly removed from schools while our healthcare system continues to collapse around us. We are not immune. #ableg

This, plus the collapse of mainstream news, is going to destroy so many brains.
Unfriendly reminder, AI is being used to destroy trust. Do not normalize the use of AI. AI can not reliably enhance videos or low-quality images.

This is the quiet replacement of reality. Do not let this be normalized.

The Canadian government just gave a huge contract to Gardaworld knowing full well it was working with ICE, for Canadian immigration detention centres. Are people under the impression that they care?
There is not a lot Canadians can do about ICE, but we can ask Parliament to investigate Canadian companies doing business with them, like Hootsuite. Call or email your MP - or contact the INDU House committee MPs. Will post link below. www.theglobeandmail.com/business/art...

I've reached out to all Canadian companies listed here to ask if they intend to continue working with ICE:

Hootsuite
Roshel
Garda
Jim Pattison Developments

I've also reached out to @anitaoakvilleeast.bsky.social's team for comment on export permits for Canadian sale of armoured vehicles to ICE.
Drop the names of any Canadian companies you’ve seen working with ICE in the comments.

I’m aware of Gardaworld, Roshel, Hootsuite.

Would love to gather any and all other names.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

Seeing another murder in Minneapolis, it's impossible to not feel deep despair. It is dangerous to protest ICE.

This is why economic action is so critical -- general strikes, not protests, is the only thing that can defeat fascism.

If you’re not from here, I need to explain this execution was on Eat Street, a commercial corridor of restaurants and coffee shops that literally everyone goes to. Normies, queermos, weirdos, neighborhood folks. Whatever that place is in your city, imagine ICE executing someone in cold blood there.

The irony of everyone fawning over how Mark Carney is 'standing up' for Canada is that he is simultaneously eroding the few institutions that actually distinguish the Canadian state from the US, and those which theoretically could be used to shield Canadians from the disaster area to the south.

Local creep Jesse Watson, after losing in the election this fall has doubled down on his pattern of behaviour of stalking, harassment and bullying.

Yesterday, he attempted to dox a city councillor in a post about parking bans that WAS FALSE

He really, REALLY wants to be a right wing influencer

The world needs more of this. ❤️
why peer support. why harm reduction. why now? Peer support is a radical, community-led practice rooted in lived experience, mutual aid, and shared care. You can practice this today, in your friendships, in your workplaces, in your communities. with the strangers around you. today and forever.
