Jan Liggett was removed from office tonight. "Scott Hamilton has unseated incumbent Jan Liggett to become Cambridge‘s next mayor after winning Monday’s municipal election. Hamilton received 17,444 votes, compared with 7,280 for Ryan Bolender and 3,473 for Liggett."
Predictably... Mayor stands by decision to cut off teen's speech at pride event. www.cbc.ca/player/play/... www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The Bolsonarists didn't change their minds, they didn't suddenly stop believing that their man could do no wrong and that Lula was an existential threat to Brazil. They were simply outvoted by those who refused to risk a return to fascism, and decided not to sit this election out.

It appears that @davidebybc.bsky.social - who called an election 2 years early - has led the NDP to the worst loss in a generation. He must be remembered for his hubris, ensuring the elimination of the BC Human Rights Code, DRIPA and state sanctioned bullying of queer and trans kids in schools.

25 years of extremely sensitive data was inexplicably kept online. We need a massive overhaul of privacy law in Canada, but we will continue to get mediocrity which enables further attacks like this. www.cbc.ca/news/investi...

Vote.
Per a database of discrimination complaints obtained by @propublica.org , Trump's Department of Education is actively ignoring reports of rape and assault on campuses so they can instead focus on transgender athletes. Their obsession with trans people is actively putting women and girls in danger.
