“The power lie is a different kind of deception. People already know it’s not true, so there is no way to contradict it, to persuade people otherwise. The appeal is that, as a believer, you can be part of it, sharing the power by accepting the falsehood is true.” — @caroloff.bsky.social #UrbanTruth

Wow - could not be more proud of having worked so hard in a small way to help elect Dr. Danielle Martin as the new MP for #UniRosedale.
Just watch her here and see what you think

It’s critical that everyday Albertans, and proud Canadians, stand up to Danielle Smith and reject separatism.
We now have three smug arrogant dinks with glasses as party leaders in Canada— Blanchet, Poilievre, and now Avi Lewis comes in strong to take the biggest pr*ck in the room title from Pierre.

See you there!
High-speed rail and Pierre Poilievre’s amnesia.

I met him in Nanaimo. We chatted. It didn’t even occur to me to ask for a selfie because he’s so down to earth ❤️🇨🇦

He’s such a nice man with a great sense of humor. He shows them his trophy he won for lawn bowling! 🤣🤣🤣

I don’t think any of us were doubting Jeff Rath’s intentions, but he sure knows how to lay them out there for all to see.
I have so many names for this guy.
Excellent!
Tod's Nanaimo Infusion - We're Doing It Again!
Tumbler Ridge is a small planned resource community, a winding 90 minute drive from the nearest city of at least 10,000 people.
A massive number of people are going to descend there tomorrow.
May those that arrive have respect and grace for the unimaginable grief.
Headline reads: my heart can't bear
The small-town paper in Tumbler Ridge is going to need support. This is its front page right now. Their subscription page is here:

Screenshot of a Discord conversation in dark mode. In the first message, a woman from the Chicago suburbs introduces herself as a social services supervisor and children’s book author. She says she is travelling solo, enjoys history, art, food, bookstores, and thrifting, and prefers gentle walking over strenuous hikes. She asks to be “adopted” during her visit to BC. In the reply below, a couple from Nanaimo offers to host her. They describe themselves as artists, with backgrounds in tech and education, share her interest in thrifting and lighter activities, and suggest visiting a local bookstore, having lunch, and exploring vintage shops together.
Are you coming to #VancouverIsland for Tod's #Nanaimo Infusion 2026 (April 24-26)
Join our Discord, tell us about yourself in the "Adopt" channel, and a local might volunteer to show you around.
