If you need some optimism in these dark times, especially in British Columbia, follow this trial which could fundamentally stop Carney’s climate destroying agenda. I’m so proud of them.

I cannot handle another media cycle where the @europarl.europa.eu pretends like Mark Carney is a 2nd coming for a new world order as he destroys Canada 🇨🇦. The Europeans are betraying Canadians by not bringing up his anti-democratic laws & policies at home. He only achieved a majority by fraud.
Reuters: A hacker is attempting to breach the US Federal Election Commission's systems and that agency has had to 'temporarily shut down' its web-facing services as a result, according to an email seen by Reuters.
I hear the winds of the Harper era blowing in… all the “abolish the Indian Act” talk… feds would love nothing more than to drop its fiduciary and treaty obligations. Saw this coming with Carney’s conservative extractive agenda. #cdnpoli#indianact#treaties
Abolishing the Indian act.
With all the things that are done to the indigenous.
This isn’t good.
This is very very bad.
Mark Carney is drooling over this and bill c-39
It is already irreversible on a human timescale.

All corporations who gave $$ to Trump must be investigated. Quid Pro Quo Bribery (18 U.S.C. § 201(b)): It is a crime to directly or indirectly give, offer, promise, or receive anything of value with the corrupt intent to influence an official act, commit fraud, or violate a lawful duty.

Israeli settler: “Go back to Jordan... It's not your land.”
Suri Crowe's group: “But why can't they harvest their trees?”
The settler then threatens to call the police and have members of the group taken away.
Suri Crowe reports from the ground in the West Bank.
Corporate profits are at record highs — but revenue from corporate taxes has plummeted thanks to the tax cuts in Trump and Republicans’ big, ugly bill.
Meanwhile, workers’ wages are stagnant and their share of the nation’s income is at a record low.
Trickle-down economics was always a hoax.
I believe in government of the people, by the people, and for the people.
Mike Rogers believes in government of the billionaires, by the corporations, and for the special interests.
PM Carney says it’s time to move beyond Indian Act - Prime Minister Mark Carney says he will instruct his ministers to work with First Nations to move Canada beyond the Indian Act — which could mean reforming it or abolishing it altogether.
Trump has only allowed the transfer of 24 patriot missiles to Ukraine over the last 3 months. That is only 2 interceptors a week.
Rather than ending patriot deliveries, Trump is sending a tiny amount so people can't complain he stopped while 95% of Russia's missiles still get to hit their targets.
Chat, is it good if most of the population now has a 14% higher risk of developing high blood pressure? Is it good if we keep increasing this risk across the population each year? Is it good if children have at least 3 COVID infections before age 5?
Asking for humanity.
A Swedish study of over 1.2 million adults found that non-hospitalised people with diagnosed long COVID had a 14% higher risk of developing high blood pressure than those without long COVID. Researchers highlight the importance of cardiovascular follow-up and regular blood pressure monitoring.
A week out from the US midterms, and Canada is quietly back at the negotiating table. Why give them a win now? Wait until after the vote. Release the Epstein files, then we'll talk.

Jesse Ventura to Piker: "Here's what pisses me off -- I did 2 tours, 17 months. So did my brother. Southeast Asia. That was at the same time Donald Trump was running and hiding like the coward he is. Why didn't he join us in the Vietnam War? I've heard him talk. He said he should be a general!"
But I live in BC and I love these unsurrendered Indigenous lands and waters, as all of my readers know. So allow me to share the kind of fact that rarely makes it into politics: the bears here are really hungry. Black bears and grizzlies are acting strangely and aggressively...
We need politics that fights for all of creation, all the beauty and wonder of here. We are blessed to live in a temperate rainforest, and I sure hope that voters in Brazil, home to a miraculous tropical rainforest, make a better choice than we just did.
...breaking into garages and homes. Tearing doors off. Why? Because in southern BC, the salmon aren’t in the streams. Why? Because water levels are too low. Why? Weak snowpack and not enough rain. Why? We all know why.
🧵Yesterday, British Columbia elected a Conservative majority government that ran on a platform of tax cuts and accelerating the pillaging of nature, or what the party calls “natural resources exploitation.” They also ran on attacking Indigenous sovereignty and trans rights.
The world under-reacted to Cambridge Analytica. A bunch of white men excused white boys from manipulating democracy and that’s how we find ourselves in this mess. And they’re all doing the same thing with AI.
It's insane that the campaign against El-Sayed is basically that he has some secret relationship with the people that the president's family has a secret relationship with.
