Seit über 3 J. sitzt Hanna Ablab in Belarus in Haft – nur wegen gewerkschaftlichen Engagements. 2021 wurde „Rabočy ruch“ als extremistisch eingestuft, danach wurde sie verhaftet und zu 11 J. Haft verurteilt. Ich setze mich als ihre politische Patin für ihre Freiheit ein!

Alberta has welcomed 200,000 permanent residents in the last five years.
But budget changes have caused three organizations to stop offering language courses, forcing thousands of newcomers to either pay out of pocket or stay in low-paying jobs their language skills afford them. 💬 #ablab

Alberta’s UCP fears it will trigger further youth unemployment if it raises Alberta’s minimum wage, said affordability minister Nathan Neudorf last week.

What are some of your family idioms that make no sense to anyone outside of the clan / household? We have:
- 'going rubby-round', when a cat rubs up against your legs because it wants dinner
- 'don't tell John', a generic name for cat treats that are human food e.g. ham
- 'osbidge', meaning a horse
