Calling the Ontario NDP and Liberals

Good luck with that dumbo

This isn't very sensible.

La Nakba du Liban-Sud

Lebanese francophone outlet L’Orient Le-Jour: the Nakba of South Lebanon.

We Lebanese are calling it for what it is: a continuation of the 1948 Nakba.

The photo shows a Lebanese village with an Israeli flag on it, planted by the genocidal army.

Go run for office in the US. You'd fit right in.

Polls can be a form of voter suppression

YES!

We have called for cooperation between the NDP and Liberals since Ford arrived on the scene. They don't care enough about the province to make the effort.

He can F right off

Palantir's summary of CEO Alexander Karp's manifesto is generating buzz. Read the 22 bullet points. Among the 22 points summarizing Palantir CEO Alex Karp's manifesto is the belief that the US should consider reinstating the military draft.

This company is out of control and its CEO appears in nearly every public appearance to be disturbed in some way.

There are companies our government should have nothing to do with anymore—e.g., those associated with Elon Musk—and Palantir is on that list.

Only die hard MAGA loyalists need apply.
Do people actually think Trump would appoint anyone else??

AI is accelerating the medical disinfo and harm

Where is our Minister of AI? #Soloman
Does he even have a clue?
Who advises him?
Anyone who knows anything beyond "the markets"??

Who votes for that weirdo?

We're screwed.

Carney seems like a nice enough guy, but he's yesterday's man. I became a Liberal to make sure the Cons did not win, and now I feel like we're in a slightly nicer Harper 2.0 era

This team he put together does not understand (or care about) the climate crisis.

‘Immediate Results’ vs. ‘The Long Game’: the U.S. and Iran Face Off

I am so sick of the @nytimes.com sanewashing Trump’s lunatic threats of massive war crimes and the destruction of Iran’s civilization as “warning them of more violence” or the “threat of attack.” The other “style” difference is that Trump is completely unreliable. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/20/u...

It's a little late for jokes. And a toast to the First Amendment over smoked salmon-potato chip canapés doesn't mean much at this point, if it ever did.

these are fascists who killed americans and U.S. corporate journalism has been an abject failure

giggles and cocktails with overt fascists normalizes them

this is not hard to understand unless your financial success is dependent on being obtuse to the ethics

"I was terrified. I had done so much harm in my life ... But my hand barely grazed the dog's full black coat before he leaned into me and licked my hand. I was overcome and started tearing up. The dog reminded me what it meant to be gentle and to embrace another living being."

RBC, Scotiabank backslide on climate targets Two Canadian banking giants recently announced they are retreating from their climate targets, in part due to government policy.

Shameful 😡

We are following Trump and his billionaires

Where is “elbows up” for the environment and the climate emergency??

Maybe when the fires restart and smoke fills the air people will wake the fuck up.

Scheer American and PP are way beyond irrelevant now.

Media should stop saying Israel is “demolishing” villages in Lebanon. It’s misleading.

The accurate term is ethnic cleansing.

Sure thing, Mark 👍🏻
