It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

The American owned Sun is promoting a vigilante as the face for Canada's most multicultural and open city. This is same American owned paper that said crack-smoking Rob Ford should be elected mayor. Toronto - you're better than this. Let's get out the vote for Olivia Chow.

Isn’t it telling what makes Pierre Poilievre angry? Not cost of living or corruption — but cooperation. Compromise is “betrayal,” floor-crossing is suddenly a crisis, and Santa “hates it.” CBC matters because it adds memory, context, and accountability to the noise. Save the CBC.

The 6 richest men in the world are all Trump allies. They control your algorithms and data on X, TikTok, Twitch, Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, Threads, and YouTube. Just in case you’re wondering why more isn’t done to stop right-wing bots and misinformation on social media.

Fabulous question line.

“Danielle Smith doesn’t care about Canadian sovereignty, and it shows whenever she speaks to the American far-right, which is unfortunately often. Her actions — always immature, often childish and completely unacceptable for any Canadian politician — have proven her unworthy of her office.”

Doug Ford has a cabinet minister living in Timmins. The minister could explain how northern towns have brutal levels of homelessness and lack of basic services. But the minister has been MIA as Dougie brags about more casinos and 6 packs in corner stores. thegroundbreaker.ca/2025/12/16/b...

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone. Don't fall for it.

"Violence against women is Donald Trump responding to reporter April Ryan's legitimate questions about the Epstein files with 'Quiet, Piggy,' and not a single person in the room saying or doing a damn thing.” Gender-based violence is an everyday reality, and it starts with minimizing misogyny

cultmtl.comGender-based violence is an everyday reality, and it starts with minimizing misogynyAs we highlight 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence and the upcoming anniversary of the Montreal massacre, can we take a moment to reflect on all the different forms this violence takes?

The Poilievre Conservatives are attacking Canada's longstanding tradition of multilateralism and global engagement. They claim its Liberal "racism." They would leave Canada weak and alone in the face of trump and putin. My latest. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-conser...

charlieangus.substack.comThe Conservative "Multiverse" Attack on CanadaAt a time when global instability is rising, you would think that it would be patently obvious that Canada’s longstanding tradition of international engagement matters more than ever.

Your Black Friday reminder that in 75% of U.S. industries, a smaller number of companies now control more of the business than they did twenty years ago. We must stop the monopolization of America. Shop small if you can, please.

Massive shoutout out to whoever handles the Royal Canadian Air Force’s social media account. They responded to every single comment on their already very solid Trans Day of Remembrance post and they responded like this…

FU Alberta, FU!

Celeste Trianon@celeste.lgbt

Alberta just introduced Bill 9, which exists for one and only one purpose: deleting the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms as it pertains to trans kids, denying them the right to life and stripping their healthcare away. This is cruel, anti-democratic and anti-constitutional.

If you want to do something about the Epstein files but calling a congressperson's office sounds intimidating, I turned my personal prep into a cheat-sheet on H.R. 4405 (aka the Epstein Files Transparency Act) so you can feel more prepared. open.substack.com/pub/rachelda...
