Kind of crazy that a journalist has been threatened by Nazis for doing journalism and we’re not seeing widespread condemnation!

@rachelgilmore.bsky.social does amazing work investigating the far-right in Canada. It's terrifying the lengths they go to stalk.
The fact that our MSM and press orgs have nothing to say about the safety of investigative journalism in Canada is incredibly eye-opening.
The silence is complacency.
So, their case on the system being wasteful and fraudulent is false. If you've only found or only investigated 900 cases, I wouldn't consider that an actionable amount of fraud w this level of reform.

Btw, just in case the Ford government tries to tie its reforms to OSAP to alleged rates of fraud.
They quietly released their raw numbers. They successfully audited 900 cases of OSAP fraud.
Which is approximately 0.2% of total OSAP cases.
Disgrace of a premier.

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t
I can't fucking believe we're doing this again.
Another score of American children earmarked to be sent to the Middle East to bump some weapon manufacturing and energy company stocks. Blood and lives for stock options and higher dividends.
How many more will die this round, America?
How much money to muffle the cries of the war-torn and dead?
scrawny 18-year-old about to fall out of an army helicopter over tehran: this is so epic. this is totally sigma, right babe?
AI e-girl operated by a balding intelligence officer in virginia: that's right baby, Iran is totally cringe
Holyyy.
It's a cold one out there today.
Bundle up if you're in Northern Ontario today. 🥶

Place your bets:
The Supreme Court says no way to tariffs.
Corps will sue the Feds for "lost profits" caused by this stupid tariff war.
Feds will pay out w US tax $$.
Corpos will keep prices at tariff levels alongside their payout.
Capital wins.
US workers affected the most get the shaft.
History may not repeat, but sometimes she rhymes a bit too fucking close for comfort.
Two library books standing up showing their spines. Atomic Spy by Nancy Thorndike Greenspan and The Third Reich at War by Richard J. Evans.
Went to my little public library and got some good reads. On a non-fiction kick lately.
Always support your local public library! 📖
Also what are you fine folks reading?

Three panel comic. Panel 1: baby monkeys in overalls jumping on a bed, having fun. Panel 2: one of the monkeys falls over the edge of the bed, reaching out as he falls. Panel 3: one of the other monkeys, now looking super buff and badass, grabs him by the arm to save him heroically. “Monkey Stronger Together.”
Sorry folks, continued existence just doesn't fit within our expected quarterly margins.
So...unfortunately, we're going to have to let a few hundred million of you die.
Capitalism drives our continued dive into hell. We must name power and class as the antagonist of the working class.
My heart goes out to Tumbler Ridge, B.C. Devastating news.

What monsters.
bitcoin might be the only thing in the world where its cultural value could go up if the people who loved it the most never opened their mouths
There have been moments in this NDP leadership race that have honestly given me hope.
How respectful - even if we disagree on certain points - each candidate has been, reminds me of a time when we had respect in our politics.
There is hope in this wild world of ours after all lol.
We in the NDP can’t lose sight of Indigenous issues.
Our plan would:
☑️Close the infrastructure gap on First Nations
☑️Uphold the principles of free prior and informed consent
☑️ Deliver funding for community policing
☑️ Fully fund Jordan’s Principle

"A tax plan for the 99%" in bold text above a flag reading "LEWIS for leader" on a yellow background.
There are fountains of wealth being generated in this country. But that wealth isn't trickling down to working people. It’s all stuck at the top.
Our 'Tax Plan for the 99%' takes on the corporate hoarding class – to redistribute wealth and raise the floor for all of us.

My dream for Ontario: Avi in the Fed, Marit in the Prov. 😎
Fed. wealth tax + wealth redistribution policies to feed the working class.
Massive funding for pub. ed/health/housing provincally.
Ontario, let's fight for OUR future together! 🚫 to oligarchs!
@maritstilesndp.bsky.social @avilewis.ca
Economics of the kitchen table.
THIS is what we need a lot more of.
By tackling food insecurities and grocer oligarchs, we can no doubt improve the lives of Ontario's working class.
More of this from the ONDP, @maritstilesndp.bsky.social!
That‘s the spirit.
Canadian Hearing Services has discontinued all employment supports in Ontario.
The alternative is a Canadian subsidiary of an Australian for-profit org.
Privatization will worsen poverty for the vulnerable in our society.
Down with Doug Ford.

You can't reform ICE.
It's an agency designed for explicitly for cruelty and dehumanization.
You wouldn't try to reform the Stasi or the SS.
You would break it down brick by fucking brick, and prosecute each and every son of a bitch who ever so much as touched one of those badges.
A free press is hostile to regulatory capture and capital; it might even support scary ideals like wealth taxes and wealth redistribution during a new gilded era.
This is why the billionaire class despises free press and investigative journalism.
Solution: No more billionaires.
“Children were in the crowd screaming.”
Jamie is a great example of a fantastic MPP in Northern Ontario.
Folks were stuck outside in -39C. Still no HART centre built.
We need a government that looks after people, not friends and monied political connections.
The North needs action, not hollow promises.

Sing your songs of anguish, your ballads of dust and of broken promises. Folk music always finds its voice when the forces of fascism sharpen its knives.
It feels like we're on the edge of a folk revival, not out of nostalgia of a now-dead world - but out of a new necessity to reclaim our voice.
Piss-ant Pierre survived his review.
No surprise there.
The Con Party is effectively captured by private interests, foreign influence, and is the mouthpiece of an elitist class that wants workers divided so there is no meaningful change in 🇨🇦
No policy, only hate. No goal but division.
