Eby's gone from:

We need to amend the law ASAP, this is non negotiable

to

We can suspend the law while we figure things out, it will be a confidence vote

to

We can wait several months while we try to find a solution

Most of this in the past two weeks #bcpoli

It may be an old clip, but it's never lost its relevance.

Nineteen (19) words is all it took for Nelson Mandela to crush an American politician’s attempts to make him out to be a fool over Cuba, Palestine and Libya.

Antivaxxers own this. Infectious disease minimizers own this. Proponents of immunity debt own this.

Carney fans, rationalize away!

This is so well done. 👌

Globe and Mail: Besides winning, what does a Liberal Party that will accept Marilyn Gladu actually stand for? ROBYN URBACK

I mean, it’s a brokerage party

And it’s been a brokerage party for the Eastern Canadian bourgeoisie since time immemorial

The problem isn’t that the Liberal Party suddenly doesn’t understand what it is, the problem is that it understands what it is all too well

lmaooooooooooo and HOLY SHITBALLS read this

Things that help calm the nervous system, quickly:

- Box breathing (in for 4, hold for 4, out for 4, hold for 4, repeat)
- Immerse your face in cold water (activates mammalian dive reflex)
- Humming (stimulates vagus nerve)
- Exercise (anything helps, outside even better)
- Impeachment and removal

We said Palestine was the testing ground, and some of y’all didn’t listen; some of y’all still won’t listen.

This will not end with some illusory election.

This will not end *when it happens*.

They will not stop—they have to *be* stopped.

How did B.C.’s historic Indigenous Rights law, DRIPA, become so controversial? | The Narwhal Unanimously passed and once celebrated, B.C.’s Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act is now facing rushed amendments

If Eby wasn't NDP premier he would be getting WAY more push back.

dude is literally blaming courts for stating the obvious: obligations to Indigenous rights are legally enforceable. And now, with Conservative support, he is fast tracking roll backs DRIPA and Indigenous rights

BC NDP are shit.

omg actual politics what do I do now

Everyone needs to stop what they’re doing and watch this video.

“It seems like there’s a lack of diversity here today, and it’s mostly people who look like you and me, and I just…?”

This lady’s response is🔥

The immediate status quo, centrist attacks on Avi Lewis are precisely why he is effective and needed.

In face of growing right wing escalation, an unbashadely left opposition that is anti capitalist & internationalist is both principled *and* realistic.

It's wild to me how many intelligent people are saying the NDP just chose "extremism."

I dunno, man. Maybe watching the world order and the social safety net crumble over the last six years has made me an extremist, too but wanting to meet people's basic needs is literally what socialism is?

so it's a government subsidy for grocery oligarchs

taken from our shared wealth

increasing economic inequality

Avi Lewis waving as supporters gather behind him beneath a slogan: "The NDP comeback starts now."

To every volunteer, donor, organizer and NDP member who helped power this history-making movement: thank you.

We are building a new foundation for our party, and we are ready to come roaring back on the Canadian political stage. Let’s get to work!

In times like these it’s more apparent than ever that our mainstream media landscape lacks any actual leftist pundits on their panels, and the rigorous analysis of days like today suffer badly for that lack.

[j jonah Jameson "get me pictures of spiderman" meme] top: alert the opinion columnists bottom: I want OPINION COLUMNS about WHY AVI LEWIS IS BAD AND WRONG

meanwhile at Postmedia HQ

The pundit and columnist class meltdown from folks who have never supported the NDP honestly suggests to me that the NDP is doing something significant that’s worth paying attention to.

Those who defend power tend to screech the loudest when power is genuinely threatened.

Reminder as pollsters start their work in earnest to tell us how Canadian voters don't want progressive policies like the one Avi Lewis is advocating, and how the NDP can't win so don't waste your vote.

👇

important to remember that Canada's pundits are absolute dingdong dipshits who worship the ruling class, they're status quorriors

way to go Avi ! best convention ever

Strange situation where we await a statement from Iran to check whether there's any truth to what US president is saying.

The NDP needs to offer a very different option from the Liberal Conservatives and Regressive Conservatives. Being Lib Lite ain't it, and this sure ain't it.

Shingles vaccine tied to half the risk of cardiac events in older adults with heart disease The risk reductions were on par with what would be expected from quitting smoking.

Shingles vaccination may halve the one-year risk of serious cardiac events among older adults who have heart disease, adding to accumulating evidence that the vaccine may protect against health conditions in addition to shingles. Study

You can tell our systems are broken when:
- The greatest threat to democracy is an elected President
- The biggest danger to public health comes from public health leaders
- The worst enemies of those fighting to control and prevent infections are the people getting paid to do that job

Surprise Solar Uptake in Pakistan Cushions Mideast Energy Shock Pakistan’s rapid adoption of solar power in the past few years is helping cushion the impact of a surge in fossil fuel prices due to the Middle East war.

Pakistan’s adoption of solar energy is helping inoculate the country against the oil-price shock, saving at least $6.3 billion this year, according to the think tank Renewables First and @creacleanair.bsky.social. By @lilipike.bsky.social & Aaron Clark for @bloomberg.com:
