Just your typical left-wing, pinko socialist, feminist, trade unionist, anti-oppression accomplice. I love humans in theory, although not so much in practice.

Members of Parliament are back in Ottawa today for a fresh session of clip farming in the House of Commons.

An omnibus bill that labour leaders warn will weaken Canadian workers’ right to strike, and that environmental groups say will bulldoze nature:

Carney is not Captain Canada.
Right. It's hard to justify pipelines if people find out what is going to happen when they're built.
Environmental groups say there’s a reason why the federal government quietly released its latest climate report, which finds that average temperatures in Canada are set to go up by at least 3.5 C by the end of the century.

I remember Canada saving a bunch of Americans and getting them out of Iran out of the goodness of our hearts.

GOP have always had short and selective memories.
The GOP has always cheated...and harmed Americans in order to gain and hold power.

It can't be Lake America.

That won't fit into the lyrics of The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. It doesn't even rhyme with "below."

Sorry, Donald, but that's how it is according to the Rule of Gordon.
Lake Ontario will never be called Lake America. Grow up, Donald Trump.

In Ontario, the Coalition for Better Healthcare is having a day of action on Tuesday September 1st at noon. Happening at an MP's office near you. Find out where and join the people fighting to protect your healthcare.
Canada, understand this clearly:
1) Doctors didn't build publicly funded healthcare. You did
2) Most of you can't afford private, profiteer healthcare
3) Doctors aren't going to fix this. We follow the money, just like you
4) Only the public can save publicly funded healthcare

I have been saying this non-stop since he announced the talks broke down. Gloves are off, elbows are up, and that tax should be filling our Federal coffers.
I never thought I'd say this but I agree with the BQ.
The Bloc Québécois says the Liberal government should bring back the digital services tax on tech giants and keep Canadian content financial contributions for streamers.

Hey so this is exactly why im critical of unearned majorities and it doesn't matter if it's your prefered party or not.
Laws should be passed through genuine consensus, not whichever party wins a handful of swing ridings.

Proportional representation creates a vital check on threats to the rule of law by requiring true multi-party agreements, rather than the whims of a single party. www.thestar.com/politics/pol...

When I read the nonsense that liberals write on bluesky, I understand why the fascists have gained power in the US.

Most liberals wouldn't know a progressive thought if it bit them on the ass. You uphold the barriers to equality while patting yourself on the back for not supporting Trump.

Just go to an older cemetery and take a look at the stones for children around the turn of the 20th century. Take a look at the women who died in childbirth after being attended by physicians who went from autopsies to births without washing their hands.

THAT'S what happened. We didn't survive.

Very cool Carney is going to drive the Southern Resident population of this species to extinction so we can appease Alberta separatists with an oil pipeline that will never be profitable (unless the world decides to embrace a climate catastrophe)
