The government is reducing service standards and Canada Post’s biggest advantage: its nationwide network.
This plan is about cutting back the postal service instead of investing to give it new revenue tools through things like postal banking. It’s shameful.

This is horrifying. Absolutely contact your trustees, and get ready to make this THE issue in October's election- we need a school board that's willing to push back against the UCP government
Well, the list of books being banned from EPSB is appalling. And it's very likely that an author on this list will get their other works pulled too, especially in the absence of teacher librarians.
There are books on this list that changed my life. This is what the UCP is taking away from kids.

Seriously Air Canada, pay your employees a fair wage for ALL hours worked. Solidarity with flight attendants!
Air Canada offered the pilots a 26% wage increase in the 1st year of their newest contract.
The flight attendants got an offer of an 8% increase in the 1st year.
In the entire 4-year deal Air Canada offered them, their wages won't go up by as much as the pilots' did in just 1 year.

Neither management team has negotiated in good faith. They both want the government to impose a settlement at the expense of the workers. That would also serve Poilievre’s desperate need to tarnish the government, another positive for the companies’ managements.

As long as Canada supports zionism, Canada will harm Indigenous people living here.

As an Indigenous person the government of Canada’s support of Zionism and the state of Israel makes me feel unsafe. Israel is currently exterminating Indigenous people and starting regional conflicts based on ethno-supremacy. The state of Israel needs to be denounced by all good Canadians.
