Because lawless ICE goons are harassing, arresting, and murdering people who are citizens, you idiot.

Opinion: It is the right time – socially and economically – to scale back extended health benefits for refugees It’s one small step toward rebuilding trust in Canada’s immigration system

Disgusting take and policy. I met a refugee in downtown Toronto with trench foot — a WWI disease — that he contracted while living unsheltered in the rain. Refugees are not why the system is failing; they're the people we have failed and are now scapegoating. www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/arti...

Join the NDP to Vote for Avi Become a member of the NDP! Members can vote in the party's leadership race to elect a new leader.

Canadian friends: today is *the very last day* to buy a membership in the NDP and have a say in who the party's next leader will be.

Only members can vote in March.

On climate and economic justice, we need a strong third party.

Don't sit it out!

In Ontario, it’s a time of plenty for private health care while public hospitals starve - CCPA Ontario public hospitals face large deficits even as the provincial government doles out more cash to for-profit providers.

www.policyalternatives.ca/news-researc... 'ON spends less than 3% of GDP on hospitals, and less than 8% of GDP on the broader health sector....the ON government’s current spending plans are making the hemorrhage worse.' @policyalternatives.ca @alonghurst.bsky.social

Infographic titled “A tale of two elections” comparing the 1996 and 2001 British Columbia elections. Pie charts show vote share versus seat share. In 1996, the Liberals won more votes but the NDP won more seats. In 2001, the Liberals won 58% of votes and 98% of seats. Text explains this distortion led to calls for proportional representation.

In 1996, the party with fewer votes formed government.

In 2001, 58% of the vote produced 98% of the seats.

British Columbia has lived with first-past-the-post distortion for decades.

Proportional representation means seats match votes. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Huge moment in this interview with @frankdomenic.bsky.social.

NDP leadership candidate @avilewis.ca puts proportional representation on the national stage and makes it the non negotiable democratic reform we need.

When leadership contenders acknowledge the core issue, the national debate shifts.

Why can't the Premier just focus on the basic business of provincial government like reducing wait times at hospitals and ensuring schools aren't falling apart. Why is everything with him another damn scheme?

Not only did Canada Post illegally lay off striking workers, it also cut off the medical benefits for people like Marc Caron, who has cancer and now has to pay thousands of dollars for medication.

This is despicable.

I directed and edited a sizzle reel that the client desperately needed me to deliver during the Christmas holidays. I put my heart and soul into it. Radio silence. No feedback. Exactly 1 year later, the client calls, “We need you to make a cutdown…” I was never given any compliment or validation.

Can totally relate. Plus: having to fight to get paid for it after delivery…
