Amazon will pay $20.5 million to settle allegations that two of its Oregon data centers helped contaminate groundwater. This is exactly why communities across the country are organizing to stop data centers — and winning. Never doubt your power to change the system.

@microsoft.com can’t claim to be a leader on climate and then build out massive fossil-fuel facilities that emit millions of tons of climate pollution and poison the people living next door. Except that's exactly what they're doing.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Danielle Smith wrote to Mark Carney demanding her say in the appointment of federal judges... And also threatening that if she doesn't get a say, she will withhold funding for new judicial appointments. Because crime and justice or something. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche needs to resign. He got the law wrong about patronizing sex parties with alleged child trafficking. He failed to redact names of victims & pictures of children. AND he moved Ghislaine Maxwell to a minimum-security prison & got her a puppy.

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself. It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did. ICE MUST GO‼️

Eby today - Crossing borders to seek the assistance of foreign governments with the goal of breaking up Canada is treason and needs to be called out as such! Smith - How do microphones work again? No. Really. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Carney to reporters: there won’t be a pipeline without a private investor. Carney to the chamber of commerce: here are all the ways we’re bending over backwards to attract a private investor:

Rachel Gilmore@rachelgilmore.bsky.social

But to the chamber of commerce, he went on about how so many measures in both the MOU and the budget help to "de-risk" the idea of investing in a pipeline for a private investor. Not inconsistent positions, but certainly different framing and emphasis!

Carney just signed a deal with Alberta that lays out conditions for a new oil pipeline. In doing this, he managed to piss off one of his own cabinet ministers (who promptly resigned), coastal First Nations, the B.C. government, the Green Party and the Bloc Québécois. But uh, here's what he got:

SEN. KELLY : “They informed me of this in a tweet because this is not about the law. This is about the media cycle, and intimidation… We basically repeated the uniform code of military justice, and they're saying that's in violation of it. It's absurd. Comical.”

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

The govt is betraying its promise to Canadians. The minister promised new coal mine selenium regulations to protect our rivers and lakes. Now, instead of providing protection, the Liberals are allowing a dramatic increase in the pollutants going into rivers and lakes.
