Big Tech oligarchs, from Zuckerberg to extremist-clown-slash-Twitter-owner Elon Musk, have made clear they are no friend to democracy. Yet Canadian politicians, institutions and media outlets continue to reward their companies by using their platforms.

Justin Ling: It’s time Canada logged out of tech platforms owned by Donald Trump toadies
If our institutions acted, they could hasten the ongoing exodus from services peddled by allies of the Trump administration.

Click on your state on this map. Take note of how much trade your state does with Canada. Then call your congress creatures and governor and ask them wtf they're doing to stop this. Or, do nothing - it's so much easier😞

Not an April Fool’s! At age 39, I have finally learned how to ride a bike. Just had my first cycling lesson and managed to stop and start and ride without falling over, which is more than I expected. Don’t know if one can simultaneously feel proud and embarrassed, but I’m buzzing!

World leaders need to look to Spain right now. I am so exhausted hearing about polite, calm diplomacy in the face of two countries starting illegal wars, lying about it, murdering children, and committing genocide in plain sight. It's shameful. I can't stop thinking about the Iranian girls' school.

1) Le Parc La Fontaine rempli de monde par un beau jour de l'été 1960. Voyez comme ils sont tous bien habillés. Peut-être que c'était un dimanche, à la sortie de l'église ? L'histoire ne le dit pas. Mais, au-delà des beaux habits, ce que j'en retiens, c'est que l'essence des parcs, c'est la réunion.
