This is a shocking story. Congrats to @thenarwhal.ca on exposing this.
LNG Canada in Kitimat – 🇨🇦's first major LNG facility – is now one of the highest sources of GLOBAL emissions for flaring, undermining claims that we produce the cleanest natural gas in the world: thenarwhal.ca/lng-canada-b...

What an incredible picture.
Klein: I agree that it is a revolutionary technology, that it is going to transform our economy on the scale of the Industrial Revolution.
But unlike the Industrial Revolution, which created huge numbers of jobs, the goal of this revolution is to eliminate jobs.
Begging reporters to just ask one question about what this unit did that the regular force cannot and did not do. A massive underreported story is how the pro-Israel lobby is fueling a budget boom for police and expansion of police powers.

declassified RCMP files confirm Canada's domestic intelligence agency infiltrated and sought to disrupt legitimate political Indigenous organizations in the 1970s, in an extensive program of covert surveillance, informants and countersubversion www.cbc.ca/news/indigen...
Amazing reporting by Brett Forrester at CBC. He spent years fighting for access to these valuable documents, got thousands of pages of surveillance released, providing fresh new understandings of how indigenous political organizing internationally scared the hell out of the state.
The first "A" of ACAB includes past, present, and, by all indications, the future. www.cbc.ca/news/indigen...

New piece with Tia Dafnos and Emma Bainbridge in @breachmedia.ca: The paramilitary pipeline police strike again. Now so clearly organized as a permanent counter-insurgency formation, here's what the Critical Response Unit (aka C-IRG) has been up to: breachmedia.ca/a-notorious-...

In the name of "fighting antisemitism," Indiana University appointed a Christian scholar to tell Jewish scholars what they can and cannot say - all while they invited Tucker Carlson to speak on campus. www.jta.org/2025/11/07/u...
So many of us feeling exactly the same. The creeping horror.
New piece: Private and public capital are flooding into mining and LNG development in the service of a war economy. Over 44 per cent of the Liberal budget is allocated toward defence spending that will eventually slap a Canadian flag on missiles and submarines.

If you’re worried about climate change and you’ve never heard of controlled burns by Indigenous nations, read this great piece.
We are in the throws of a battle over who is going to survive the future.
A future marked by scarcity and disaster.
A future these people are accelerating.
That is what is driving the attacks on civil rights and basic equality.
Supremacist beliefs are the tool needed to justify human culling.

Some good news
the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

I know this case is all over - & it should be - but Turning Point USA has waged a harassment campaign against faculty for more than a decade. I know of at least a half dozen other faculty, personally, who have received death threats and several of those who felt so unsafe they too left their homes
This is extremely alarming. Prime Minister @mark-carney.bsky.social won the federal election promising to make us *less* depending on the US. Now we are hearing reports that he is offering up a CLOSER energy and military partnership in exchange for a trade deal... 🧵

Watching the way the Trump administration is using criminalization as a weapon ought to make clear how criminalization works even in normal times.
