NEW: The RCMP can apply the lessons it learned at an Israeli military seminar last year to “Canadian law enforcement contexts,” according to a briefing document written by Canada’s defence attaché in Israel. www.readthemaple.com/rcmp-can-app...
We all need to understand that this 'country' is little more than a scam to generate wealth for the already wealthy, white, cishet, able-bodied businessmen and their lawyers. They only see dollar signs, not ecosystems. Profits, not people. There's no justice on stolen lands. LAND BACK
Today’s announcement shows what this federal government will protect above all else: the profits of Big Oil. Read my full statement on the oil pipeline proposal from the Prime Minister and Premier Smith: www.ndp.ca/news/ndp-rea...
The reason the world is upset with amerikkka is because y'all are founded on genocides, stolen lands, continuous enslavement. You also have over 850 bases across the planet, and a 250 year history of int'l destabilization with no one in politics to question that. Y'all can't collapse fast enough.
The reason the world is upset with Israel is because of the 700,000+ innocent Palestinians they’ve murdered. It’s not because they’re Jewish. Hope that helps. Subscribe For FREE : publicsquaremedia.substack.com/subscribe
I present, without comment: Heavy machinery uses hydraulics which are highly susceptible to abrasives like sand. If some sand were to find its way into the system through a component like a manifold, switch, etc then the whole machine will become inoperable.
This pipeline isn’t nation building. It’s nation burning.

@mark-carney.bsky.social “Israel killed 25,000+ children in 1,000 days. That means Israel killed ~25 children every day for 1,000 days with complete impunity! Over the last 1,000 days, Israel killed more than one child every hour. This's what real threat to world peace looks like.” M. Safa
My parents now have to spend their final years in tropical heat without air conditioning in a place where it never went above 25C until 2012. The poor, disabled, and elderly will suffer the consequences of billionaire sociopaths and their puppets like Carney. And ecosystems will suffer more.
Our Prime Minister wants to build even more pipelines.
Can’t have the settler population of a settler colony that committed a holocaust (and continuing to commit genocides) thinking critically about another settler colony that’s currently committing a holocaust with the help of the first colony.
Utter despicable but you can see why the Liberal Party of Canada would be uncomfortable with the notion of historical truth. #Nakba
It bears noting that so many of the Asian continent’s peoples also suffered from euro-colonialism - with help from ‘canada’. For example, empire drew borders of Pakistan & India & made India one ‘country’ despite its thriving peoples with over 100 languages. The Indigenous peoples had no say.
Wars and other violence are never about accountability or justice. It's about the maintenance of power and greed by the few. In the Scramble for Africa, empires stepped on each others toes, and WWI was the result. The Balkan peoples suffered as well from imperialism.
Fuuuuuuck this 'country'. Launch every billionaire and their puppets into the sun. Land Back. Re-Indigenize.
“No offer of equity or ownership will change our position, and no proponent is acceptable to us,” said Marilyn Slett, president of the Coastal First Nations, in response to Mark Carney's pipeline plan. #Canada #CDNPoli #ABPoli #BCPoli #ClimateCrisis #ClimateChange #NoPipelines

A reminder that Trudeau’s government was actually still bad at its climate policy

Apparently, the 1000 wealthiest people need to have peace of mind about their portfolios (and ensure their monthly retreats to Bora Bora) at the expense of everyone else, and the planet's ecosystems.
If you want to ragebait yourself, watch this. It’s a lot of fear mongering and bullshit to say, effectively, that we’re doing a shock doctrine and we’re abandoning our climate targets. Happy Canada Day Eve, everyone.
I have to physically restrain myself from setting ablaze every single one of the flags I pass by. Fuck this ‘country’. It is and always has been a scam and a heist for the wealthiest, white, cishet, able-bodied businessmen and their lawyers.
Canadian flags are flying off the shelves. Inside the Toronto company trying to keep up with demand. Only a few years ago, the flag was a symbol many couldn’t get far enough away from. Now, it’s more popular than ever.

I present this for your consideration. It’s proposed that funkytown is any municipality in which one or more members of the collective known as Parliament and/or Funkdelic are present. If this ends up being confusing and collapses the space-time continuum, I can think of no funkier way to end.
scientists have yet to prove that funkytown actually exists
What so many people haven't unpacked yet is that *this is what our country is*. It's been a scam from the very get-go. If you actually read the first few sittings of parliament, it's nothing but wealthy businessmen 'praying' for our tax dollars from their gov't buddies. Land Back and Re-Indigenize
When Carney cuts off a big piece of the pie for the investors, he has a finger in it.
Translation: ‘I’ve made considerable gains for the already wealthy people at the expense of your public services. We the multimillionaire class are gonna be just fine. The rest of you who are not wealthy, white, cishet, able-bodied, neurotypical - give us more money, please. We’re never satisfied.’
The first thing we did this year, and the first thing we did as a majority government, was lower your costs.

The people are likewise gutless. Y’all should have risen up against your government on July 5, 1776. Once wealthy white cishet able-bodied businessmen and lawyers call the shots, *everyone else suffers*.
After Trump yelled at them, Senate Republicans rolled over and rebooted on the War Powers resolution, this time killing it. Gutless, completely gutless. I would have told Trump to go fuck himself.
Could we just do horses again? This whole 'ravaging the planet for short term resources and profits of a few' thing isn't working out.
China sells an SUV for $28,000 That has A 10 year 621,471 mile warranty! It has a 1.5L turbo gas motor batteries and EV motor! AWD 600hp 700 miles on a tank 106 mpg In USA not available!
This 'country' does nothing but make profits for the wealthiest 1000 people, while poisoning and destroying the lands. I look forward to hearing that none of these projects come to anything. Land Back
The projects are: The Grays Bay road and deep-water port near Kugluktuk, Nunavut; the Mackenzie Valley Highway in the Northwest Territories; and the Deep Geological Repository for nuclear waste in the territory of Wabigoon Lake First Nation.
Hey @mark-carney.bsky.social it only did you not get free, prior, informed consent from Indigenous peoples for the latest reactors, you’re also fucking things up *long term* in multiple ways. Not the least of which is nuclear waste storage. We won’t mine our way to sustainability.
So I work in the news. Just read this: "Because of the intense heat, France has had to switch off a reactor at a nuclear plant near Toulouse – cooling water drawn from a nearby river had become too warm, a spokesperson said." So the supposedly greener energy source is also vulnerable to climate

The Liberal Party has a secret to ruling Canada: campaign on the left, then govern on the right. From Mackenzie King to the Trudeaus to Mark Carney, Martin Lukacs breaks down a century of Liberals posturing as progressives—only to serve as faithful servants of the corporate elite.

NEW: A report from Just Peace Advocates finds the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board increased its investments in companies complicit in Israel’s crimes by more than $23 billion. www.readthemaple.com/cpp-invests-...
I'm old enough to remember that Obama bombed 7 countries that we know of, killing tens of thousands of innocent civilians in Libya, Somalia, Yemen, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Syria. He also bailed out banks and automakers to protect their profits instead of helping actual people.
I’m old enough to remember that Obama didn’t have to give Iran $330bn in unfrozen assets, lifted sanctions, and a wealth fund in order to get them to agree to nuclear inspectors.

We haven’t even found a long-term solution to storing nuclear waste, but yeah let’s keep fucking up the planet for countless generations @mark-carney.bsky.social
Canada sets out plan for up to 10 new nuclear reactors reut.rs/4w5YgaZ
Peak liberal is praising one war criminal and demanding death of another. Bonus points for not recognizing the fascism that your country was founded on, and its contributions to Nazi policymakers.
The Knicks parade, The Obama Center celebration and seeing people from other countries partying together at the World Cup are some of the positive parts of our country that I miss. I am ready for the negative parts to be put into guillotines and executed.

Long thread 🧵 Worth your time #IndigenousPeoplesDay
With the 30th anniversary of Canada’s Indigenous Peoples Day happening this weekend, let’s take a look at several ways that the Carney government is undermining the rights and well being of Canada’s indigenous peoples and undoing progress on reconciliation rather than advancing it. 🧵1/
