So did Carney stand up for Canada or did "Dr. Roberts" blow off the Liberal cabinet meeting? The "Dr." is a vicious enemy of democracy, the rule of law, women's rights. We have yet to see the PM declare that Canada vigorously opposes such dark actors. thetyee.ca/Opinion/2025...
Yup, they’re definitely predators.
Harming the people of Alberta is what Dani and her crew are there for… unless you’re a billionaire or an oil company www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
If SARS-2 was visible like smoke, no one would tolerate it. Clean air is not radical. It’s survival.
Donald Trump: And we are very transparent. There's never been transparency like we have. There’s nothing to hide. Doug Ford:
Just spoke with my CDC sources. They said RFK Jr. has ordered officials to hide tuberculosis cases, even as three active TB cases were just reported in Maine. He’s also suppressing bird flu reports. Pandemics don’t start with viruses they start with secrecy. RFK Jr. must resign now!

“Tailings are mixture of water, sand, bitumen residue and chemicals considered toxic to fish and other wildlife. As of 2023, nearly 1.4 trillion litres of the substance were stored in the province.” Humans are also *other wildlife www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
I think Dr Rasmussen is right: the time for politeness is over. Indeed, the former biomedical academics who one might previously have "politely debated" at a conference who are now running & destroying the US vaccine system, including by implementing RFK Jr's dire policies, need to be called out.
Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.
“Collapsing Ontario’s 72 school boards into 4 is reckless, undemocratic, an attack on public education. It silences parents, erases community voices, eliminates democratically elected trustees, cuts families off from decision-makers. Ford manufactures another crisis to tighten his grip on schools"
WAKE UP ONTARIO! Ford (👿) is a menace to all Ontarians. Privatizing everything…education and health. Enriching MAPLE MAGA! Subjecting all of us especially our kids to unsafe classrooms. CLEAN AIR FOR ALL NOW!!!!!
What FordNation has created: " a widening affordability crisis: wages in Ontario aren’t keeping pace with housing costs, and new data shows more people are leaving the province than moving in, even as unemployment rises and middle-income households are squeezed out of the GTA."
I am shocked—shocked!—that a CEO lobby group thinks that they shouldn't have to play by any rules.
This is so sad. Danielle Smith is a monster.

1. While it is heartening that some individual state governors in the US are guaranteeing continued and unrestricted access to Covid-19 vaccines in their respective states, it is vital to remember that what is also urgently required is robust surveillance of H5N1.

Yes. It’s already too late to stop the climate change horrors but we can at least try to mitigate instead of accelerating

Instead of the American fascist architect of the dystopian Project 2025 being unrolled in US maybe Carney should invite John Vaillant to his cabinet meetings? We were led to believe Carney cared, and was knowledgeable about, the climate emergency So far, crickets, but let’s invite US fascists!
I just sent a letter urging the government to act on Canada’s wildfire crisis. Join me in demanding a real plan to protect communities, nature, and our future! act.naturecanada.ca/page/173783/...
Dwivedi: “Carney gov has not made clear what kind of insight or expertise this person would have into trade negotiations & Trump but Project 2025 seeks to erode basic norms of democracy, limit women’s access to reproductive health (including contraception), roll back rights for LBGTQ+ community.”
This is who Carney invites to Canada: “The danger Roberts’s ideology poses to U.S. democracy and human rights has become chillingly clear. With each executive order and autocratic action Trump rips from Project 2025’s pages, he jolts the dystopian plan to life, shaping a monstrous reality.”
“It’s a betrayal of #Liberal voters, undermines the core theme of our campaign, and is an utter disgrace for a self-respecting democracy facing the rise of fascism next door,” “The way the Carney government seems to operate to me is ‘Act first, think later,’” #CdnPoli thetyee.ca/Opinion/2025...
Will this article mark the moment that balding forty-something consultants in business class airport lounges notice how fucking ridiculous The Economist is?
Obvious pt: RFK Jr full of sh*t Reality: - COVID vaccines one of most studied interventions - US performed TERRIBLY during pandemic (read: poor public health policy) - Misinformation & antivaxx BS contributed to that stat (e.g., Republicans died > rate pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...)

Yes, but Carney campaigned on creating programs to support our youth. It's connected. Plus Carney is looking more like an actual ally of Ford rather than someone who would do anything different or progressive.

The last thing we need is austerity measures. Do not implement a neoliberal agenda - this has been shown for decades to be a way to fail people from all paths of life except the rich.
Any climate scientists, or anyone left of center there? Inviting the monstrous author of Project 2025 onto Canadian soil makes us wonder how loyal you really are to Canada and democracy. An atrocious move. And when will you have a plan that gives our youth some hope? It feels like a Harper gov't.
UPDATE: Project 2025 mastermind no longer meeting with Canadian cabinet: www.cbc.ca/news/politic...
I'm pretty hard to shock at this point. And I was pretty well-acquainted with the manifold defects of RFK, Jr. Still, his performance before the Senate this morning is shocking me. Putting this man in charge of America's health is a clear sign our society is broken and may be Trump's greatest crime.
Indeed but I was hoping Carney had a vision for our youth. It would appear not really.
Agreed. Trump doesn't deal, he extorts.
What if…Trump is never going to actually deal? At some point, Canada needs to move on rather than concede the country to the Americans, bit by bit. www.davidmoscrop.com/p/its-time-f...
Is this Carney's plan for our youth, too? Send them to war?
The news keeps coming at us
That is my fear. Crushing. I had hoped he had a new vision for our country and our youth. And all we get are extreme NAZIS being invited here as the country and the planet burn!
WHERE IS THE CBC?? Do some fucking reporting!
It's unsettling that Carney could potentially be that unaware of who these Project 2025 people are and what they stand for.
The Carney stans are having another normal one in my replies, justifying consorting with Christo-fascists, I see.
THIS! WHERE IS DOUG FORD? WHERE IS CARNEY?

I do not remember the libs campaigning on a far right austerity budget, do you? I thought we were building things lso our youth could have jobs and homes and a future and some hope. It's ugly out there for young people.
Yes. This is true but do you think we can stand up militarily to the U.S.? There is no logic going on there now. The billionaires want everything and they don't care who they harm. These are new times.
I am very left. I want everyone to thrive and be supported and we can afford that. I did appreciate what Trudeau tried to do on social policies. Not easy in a far right world. Harper and anyone associated with him is pure evil as far as I'm concerned!
I respect you Marc. We agree on most things! Would you have said this if Carney was inviting Putin or Hitler?
I'm so sorry. I hear so many friends and acquaintances coming home from holidays with Covid. It makes travelling quite unappealing to be honest. If my kid didn't live abroad I would stay home.
And you know what? Carney has done NOTHING on the climate emergency or for women. All I see is more "economy economy economy" far right bullshit. When is Carney planning to throw the rest of us a bone? Youth have NO HOPE.
As a woman I can tell you these fascists scare the hell out of me.
Not dismissing just not inviting
💯 Absolutely unjustifiable on any grounds, and political stupid af. Canadian voters are pretty well versed on the horrors of project 2025 and this guy is the bloody architect. Shameful Carney and team.
Don't ignore them but don't fucking invite these misogynistic fascists into our country Mike Johnson is coming too.
I suspected we were toast when Doug and Dani were delighted when Carney got elected.
Nazi. Canadian soil. Invited. That ok?
