they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.
Okay, some big timeline stuff:
New cabinet sworn in on the week of the 12th of May
Parliament will be back on May 26th
King Charles will deliver Canada's speech from the throne on May 27th (monarchists be chill) accompanied by the Queen
“This Bill is not only abhorrent and irresponsible - it is a direct affront to the Treaty relationship between our Nation and the Crown.”
Onion Lake Cree Nation also condemning Smith’s rewriting of democracy in Alberta!

“Treaty rights are not subject to popular vote, and cannot be reinterpreted or overridden by provincial legislation. We unequivocally reject any legislative mechanism that attempts to do so.”
The Blackfoot Confederacy is also condemning Bill 54.
#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
“Let us be absolutely clear: our Nations do not and will never consent to the separation of our Treaty territories. These lands were never ceded nor surrendered.”
Confederation of Treaty 6 First Nation would also like a word with Danielle Smith…

STURGEON LAKE CREE NATION MIKISEW CREE FIRST NATION FORT CHIPEWYAN, ALBERTA April 30, 2025 Dear Premier Smith: Re: Cease & Desist – Separatist Threats You are attempting to manufacture a national unity crisis – by enabling a referendum on separatism and a fanatical cell of individuals – at the exact moment when Canadians need to unite against Donald Trump’s America. The province of Alberta is on Treaty lands. Please be advised that your irresponsible statements and actions are in breach of Treaties No. 6, 7 and 8. We demand that you immediately stand down from this conduct. Our Treaties are sacred covenants and are to last forever. Alberta did not exist when our ancestors agreed to share the land with the Crown. The province has no authority to supersede or interfere with our Treaties, even indirectly by passing the buck to a “citizen” referendum. If you or any Canadians are not happy living on Treaty lands, they are free to apply for citizenship elsewhere. Sincerely, Signed Chief Sheldon Sunshine Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation Signed Chief Billy-Joe Tuccaro Mikisew Cree First Nation
An Open Letter to Premier Danielle Smith from Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation & Mikisew Cree First Nation:

Poilievre's actual announcement today:
he'd amend the Criminal Code to give police power to charge people for living in a homeless encampment or a tent city
He said these are places where "half-dead, contorted bodies lie on the ground on the verge of overdose from fentanyl"
Compassionate!! /s
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NYU Faculty Take Classes Off Campus to Protest Lack of Protections for International Students NEW YORK, April 17, 2025 - More than fifty NYU faculty members have taken their classes off campus starting today, and continuing for the next week, to protest the University's lack of commitment to protect international students in the face of the Trump administration's attacks. Some faculty have moved their classes to in-person locations that have been declared sanctuary spaces, where international students are assured that building administrators will do everything in their power to refuse to cooperate with ICE agents. Other faculty have moved their classes online so that students can attend from a safe location of their choosing.
This is how you do it.

Thanks CBC North on why I choose to exercise my right of self-determination to vote in federal elections. Participating in colonial forms of governance as an Omushkego-Eeyou Two Spirit is a practice of harm reduction. Our inherent & treaty rights can be advocated for through multiple pathways.
its so cool how all of american mainstream media is just regime-aligned now lol
CTV's Judy Trinh has been nothing but professional as a journalist in the nine years I've read her reporting here in Ottawa. She's been respectful in Indigenous spaces. He's been performative.
Fox News dumbass touting “Trump’s manly tariffs”
THEY’RE GENDERING THE TARIFFS
Chris Murphy on Tariffs
you can't spell "tariffs" without "FFS"
“This is a GREAT time to move your COMPANY into the United States of America, like Apple, and so many others, in record numbers, are doing. ZERO TARIFFS, and almost immediate Electrical/Energy hook ups and approvals. No Environmental Delays. DON’T WAIT, DO IT NOW!”
read the tea leaves however you want but this doesn’t sound like the tone of someone who wants to back down on tariffs to me
Yup
