“I truly do not know what this budget is defending Nova Scotia against...” said @csaulnier.bsky.social, director at @ccpanovascotia.bsky.social. ...it is short-sighted, with a view to do the same thing that hasn’t helped most people...for the last 40 years.” www.saltwire.com/nova-scotia/...
Canadian-built Roshel armored vehicles are being used by ICE right now in Minneapolis, including in today's operation where ICE murdered someone else.
I wrote about this company in December. And we know this thanks to the work of World Beyond War Canada.

Damn. I was reading along thinking yes this is all true and horrible and then the email gut punch knocked me out.
There is a large green digital billboard display with the words COVID-19 CAUSES... BRAIN DAMAGE DEMENTIA IMMUNE DAMAGE HEART PROBLEMS DIABETES CHRONIC ILLNESS N95 ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION ANYONE CAN GET LONG COVID, EVEN KIDS. MASK UP AND STAY SAFE. On it. There is also a graphic of a purplish virus particle, and a white n95 mask. There are also 3 vehicles in the picture, two are dark blue suvs and the other is a white car. There are buildings in the background and a patch of grass in front of the parking lot where the vehicles are. It is a sunny day.
Covid numbers are rising and we trying to get the word out. Here are the first two billboards so far this summer and I’ll be working to keep putting them out well into the fall.
If you want to help me continue the campaign any help is appreciated.

Very excited for this! I am wondering, do you know of any kids books or stories about the bund?
Apparently what it takes to shift public opinion is a fascist takeover
BREAKING: There are 377,000 Missing Palestinians from Gaza
As of June 2025, a dataset hosted by Harvard shows Gaza's population has dropped from 2.2 million to just 1.85 million
I will just add that this focuses Carney’s Bill C2 and Ford’s Bill 5 but Tim Houston did it in Nova Scotia first
Don’t forget to also pay attention to the bad news here

"The protesters throwing rocks at heavily armed security forces or attempting to damage the vehicles used to kidnap their immigrant neighbors did not introduce violence. They are instead acting in militant community defense." 🔥from @natashalennard.bsky.social theintercept.com/2025/06/09/l...
Is that not an experience? We all experience many things we don’t understand and can’t explain or even talk about
Rep. Laurel Libby, R-Auburn, recently used my second-place finish in the 1,600-meter run, and that of my teammate in the 800-meter run, to malign Soren Stark-Chessa, the trans-identified athlete who finished first. One of the reasons I chose to run cross-country and track is the community: Teammates cheering each other on, athletes from different schools coming together, and the fact that personal improvement is valued as much as, if not more than, the place we finish. Last Friday, I ran the fastest 1,600-meter race I have ever run in middle school or high school track and earned varsity status by my school’s standards. I am extremely proud of the effort I put into the race and the time that I achieved. The fact that someone else finished in front of me didn’t diminish the happiness I felt after finishing that race. I don’t feel like first place was taken from me. Instead, I feel like a happy day was turned ugly by a bully who is using children to make political points. We are all just kids trying to make our way through high school. Participating in sports is the highlight of high school for some kids. No one was harmed by Soren’s participation in the girls’ track meet, but we are all harmed by the hateful rhetoric of bullies, like Rep. Libby, who want to take sports away from some kids just because of who they are. Anelise Feldman Freshman, Yarmouth High School Yarmouth
this is a letter to the editor from a high school track runner who came in second to a trans girl in a race. her state house rep in maine started talking about it. so she wrote this: www.pressherald.com/2025/05/14/r...
I mean this is a strange definition of experience. Do babies not have experiences because they don’t remember and reflect or tell us about it? Animals definitely experience all kinds of embodied things, emotions, etc. Dogs are obviously not the same as humans but they do experience things.

Alright because this is popping up more and more- the situation in Gaza (and I don’t say this lightly) is the worst it’s been. People are being constantly displaced, no aid has gotten in for weeks and I’ve known more people have relatives die this week than any other week since it started.

Are we going to carry on with this lack of preventions until every single household is sick, I really think this could happen. We need urgent action on long covid. It’s an enormous public health emergency 🚨 🧵 @teamlabouruk.bsky.social

@aoc.bsky.social this is a great question
Dear Democratic Party: why are you not screaming this from every rooftop? Why are you not holding press conferences with these poor fired people - putting a face on what the richest man is destroying?
Honestly though isn’t the centrist position more like “If we don’t rock the boat too much we may be able to keep our nice things”?
Poilievre's Indigenous policy looks a lot like a threat. This is him saying the feds will cut funding for ISC, replace it with tax room - and if we allow resource development in our territories, we can tax it to replace the money the feds took. I.E. let the pipeline through, or no drinking water.
Indeed, we the people will enforce it. “most mass nonviolent movements that have succeeded have done so even without achieving 3.5% popular participation." www.meditationsinanemergency.com/the-nature-o...
