Absolutely terrifying. As a union whose members also work in grain terminals, the sliding safety protocols in Vancouver's port are alarming to us as well. We stand in solidarity with the @ilwu.bsky.social. #HealthAndSafety #Vanpoli #canlab #BCpoli @thetyee.ca

#StarExclusive: RCMP says it’s probing potential war crimes related to Israel-Hamas conflict.
The police service told the Star it launched the investigation in early 2024. www.thestar.com/news/canada/...
I just googled "what is a lapdog" and this video came up.
I find these statements ending with suggesting mental health support for students "affected" by STATE DISAPPEARANCES to be the most bizarre minor plot in this whole nightmare.
Donald Trump, en utilisant le prétexte de la « sécurité nationale », a signé un décret qui enlève le droit à la négociation et les droits syndicaux à 67 % des employé-es fédéraux. 😡😭 Ici, au même moment, le gouvernement de la CAQ veut limiter le droit de grève des travailleurs 😡

David Grossman @davidgross_man •3h I can only react to this image as I am: a Jew. To make Jewish words and phrases interchangeable with ICE detention is to make Judaism the face of fascism. This has happened in Israel and will happen here if we allow it m The White House V @WhiteHouse • 4h "We will find, apprehend, and deport these terrorist sympathizers from our country — never to return again." -President Donald J.

What David said
White House official post on Instagram, featuring a black and white photo of persecuted, illegally disappeared political dissident Mahmoud Khalil, and the words "SHALOM MAHMOUD"
Watching an administration of violent, sieg heiling christo-fascists use Jewish vernacular while enacting Nazi policies against a marginalized group is more obscene than anything I could ever draw. Hope they all get what they richly deserve. 👍
On March 8, DHS agents abducted Mahmoud Khalil, a US permanent resident & student activist for Palestinian rights, from his New York apartment. Mahmoud was targeted for his political speech & activism in support of Palestinian freedom and for an end to the Israeli genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.
One comes to mind
Donald Trump, Kid Rock, and Elon Musk
The Trump budget has passed in the House of Representatives:
💸$4.5 trillion in tax cuts to the top 1% + corporations
🪖more money for war + mass deportations
🚑$2 trillion in cuts to programs like Medicaid + food stamps
This is a massive transfer of wealth from the poor to the uber-elite.
I'm reading Peter Beinart's latest right now. It's nothing groundbreaking for folks who have been doing Palestine solidarity or anti-Zionist work for a long time, but a good book to recommend to fence-sitters, or worse, people who have tacitly supported the genocide www.goodreads.com/book/show/21...
I really enjoyed watching @lacsn.bsky.social president Caroline Senneville on TLMEP @radiocanadainfo.bsky.social. An inspired defense of the right to unionize and strike, and a fascinating analysis on the struggles of Amazon workers and daycare workers in QC ici.radio-canada.ca/tele/tout-le...
On Trump tarrifs on Canada:
Important not to give into economic protectionism that bolsters nationalism & breaks transnational solidarity btwn workers, esp migrant workers
Instead, focus on ending *capitalist* trade, embedded in resource extraction. Oppose deregulation & strengthen public services
