In Canada we give them tax breaks on fucking expensive Yachts. And we have idiots defending it, like it’s necessary and we need to treat rich people better. Partisan bullshit.
Tax the rich, greed is a mental disorder, no one needs billions of dollars to live their life.

The next time someone tells you that America isn’t a sick & racist country, just remind them that this nation is willing to accept treason, rape, and child abuse from a white president but not healthcare from a Black one.

Showing that she fits right in with the new direction of the GOP, Elise Stefanik defended her friends in the New York Young Republicans after they sent racist texts and praised Hitler

So I’m sure her gubernatorial campaign will go splendidly

In #Budget2025, Canada describes $2.7 billion in cuts to international assistance as “savings.”

But let’s be clear Mark Carney: aid cuts aren’t savings.

This is the facility that I and many others have been protesting. We’ve been hit, thrown, gassed, and shot with pepper bullets but none of that holds a candle to what is being done to people *in* the actual facility.

Read this thread. Don’t look away. Keep your eyes and the pressure on Broadview.
A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

LNG Canada offered thousands of dollars to a Kitimat, B.C., resident to temporarily “relocate” due to flaring and noise from the company's gas liquefaction and export facility. The resident would also have to agree not to bring future legal claims about property damage.

Kory Teneycke has it made. He gets paid by the Ontario Conservatives. His company gets paid to lobby the Ontario government. His family members get paid to produce ads for the Ontario Conservatives. He gets paid as a panelist on CTV Power Play. Isn't there a conflict of interest in there somewhere?

"As of writing, Tesla has at least $48.39 billion in debt.

However, Musk has also used his Tesla stock as collateral for SpaceX, Twitter, and Tesla loans. Before he bought Twitter, over half of his shares were collateralised; now, that figure is far, far higher."
Interesting piece: if Tesla collapses Musk’s entire empire could come crashing down because of the way he’s structured the companies’ finances.

You're probably seeing a ton of taxpayer-funded propaganda about the Ring of Fire.

"Fuentes said he wants to drag the Republican Party “kicking and screaming into the future, into the right wing, into a truly reactionary party.” His vision is coming true. Consider the leaked group chats of Young Republican leaders that were revealed by Politico earlier this month."
America has no idea what's about to hit them. "Young Republicans" are fully steeped in neo-Nazi edge lord talking points. Fuentes is the present and future of the GOP. After Trump, this is the new form of MAGA. The establishment isn't built for this fight.

The president of Palantir Canada is on Carney's council for Canada/US relations.

MacNaughton, who was Canada's ambassador to the US, is also on the board of TC Energy, big proponent of Fortress Am-Can.

He is also chair of fake front "Therme", building a casino at Ontario Place with Ford's team.
Mark Carney is betting on AI infrastructure to drive Canada’s economic growth, but critics say lingering Trudeau-era policies are still discouraging outside investors who could fuel all that growth.
