Six women have been awarded the Goldman Environmental Prize for 2026. This year’s winners secured major victories against fracking in Colombia, oil projects in the U.K., and mining in Papua New Guinea.

Doug Ford -- "Yeah."

FINAL UPDATE!!!! AAAHH!!

well never mind carry on then

Is root an onion joke I caught that one

With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars.

We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director.

Please stand by for more.

Meanwhile, virtually every Canadian governmental official (with the exception of our privacy commissioner) is not only not questioning the legality of X becoming the largest CSAM and non-consensual porn site on the internet, they continue to support the site by posting there.

It's a multiplier, not additive

true crime brain has fucked people up so bad and they get really mad when you point that out. and also that the entire true crime industry is predatory and exploitative

In Canada in summer they've been offering $15 tickets for kids to 17 when accompanied with parent. That's helpful too.

I found that for solo parenting with a kiddo, the train was the most relaxing adventure. Parent gets to sit and unwind and kid can move around and marvel at things.

I kind of want this one to say thigh voltage.

I'm only hosting outdoor parties when it rains because touch screens don't work then and no one can use their phones

EU: The European Union will require sale of mobile phones with “user-replaceable and longer-lasting batteries” starting in 2027.

The regulation demands “availability of spare parts and manuals for 10 years to curb planned obsolescence”.

Rest your mind, I got off the ice dry after some stick handling drills.
Also this is my flooded front yard, so only 3 feet of water. Plus I had my ice pics for self rescue.

Skates on and a hockey puck on the edge of the dock. The hockey stick is hanging over the end of the canoe. The little forest river has flooded up into the forest. The ice looks very smooth, and there is open water on the distance. The sun is shining and the blue sky is reflecting off the ice.

Sure, why not. Day 117. April 19 is a new personal record for outdoor river skating in Manitoba. #WildIce #ODR

Sending emails at 6 am on a Sunday is a bad organizational practice.

For those around tonight, our documentary “Summit 72” — all four episodes— is on CBC tv tonight. I co wrote and co directed it, and was the music producer, and it’s a compelling, historic tale. Produced by the brilliant folks at Mercury Films.

No where to run to
No where to hide

my entire life there have been frustrated women who can’t find appropriate men to date and in response people called them frigid spinster cat ladies but borderline sexual predators and outright misogynists get pity profiles on the reg — disgusting

Randy and I talked hockey and climate change on CBC's What On Earth show. His Icemakers doc has a Premiere screening in Toronto this week. With this weekend's weather in Manitoba we could be back out skating on the ODR.

Why the AI backlash has turned violent And why it's probably only going to get worse from here.

Last week, a 20 year-old man threw a molotov cocktail at Sam Altman's mansion; two days later, people fired a gun at it. Earlier that week, someone fired gunshots into an city councilman's house who approved a data center.

Why the AI backlash has turned violent:

Shot from ground level, a round ceiling mural that echoed Metis embroidery. On a black background, we see a wild rose in tjr centre, surrounded by flowers, berries, birds and butterflies.

The mural in context - on the ceiling, surrounded by lights and blond wood ceiling tiles. It hangs above the soaring atrium of the University Commons

I was on the @ualberta.bsky.social campus today for the unveiling of this remarkable art installation by Metis painter Christi Belcourt. It’s called In My Grandmother’s Time, and it blends traditional motifs from Metis beading and embroidery with digital technology. And it’s gorgeous. #ualberta #yeg

If women were 9 out of 10 stalkers, it's all we would talk about.

If women committed 97% of sexual assaults, it's all we would talk about.

Men wanna squabble over "62 million views doesn't mean 62 million men" & we're giving them the space & grace we would never afford women in ANY circumstance.

One year ago we won a decisive victory in Manitoba as the Lemay Forest was protected.

Some thoughts from the front lines of caring for sacred spaces.
