Please people think critically — the survival of Canada’s orcas depend on it.

[Rachel Gilmore @atRachelGilmore]

The government legislation affirms they know they’ll kill these orcas.

Why else would they need ministerial abilities to ignore laws that prevent projects from driving a species to extinction AND to ignore conditions put in place to protect orcas from THIS port expansion?

[Rachel Gilmore @atRachelGilmore]

Straight up if these orcas die, I will never forgive this government. It’s genuinely devastating to contemplate — and make no mistake, the west coast pipeline and port expansion WILL kill them.

We have to draw the line somewhere and these orcas deserve to have us fight for them.

[Rachel Gilmore @atRachelGilmore]

The changes in this new bill are “without precedent in Canadian law and they’re without precedent even amongst our trading partners in the G7.”

“It provides the complete and unlimited discretion to the federal minister to decide who gets to go on strike and who does not.”

Is Brad inflating his popularity online using AI-generated comments? 🤔

Bradford is the first confirmed in Canada to use Israeli-based Victory App, which offers rewards to his supporters for sharing their contact lists and posting AI-generated content 🧵

Carney is moving ahead with the sale of airport concessions.

In Australia and Greece where airports were sold—prices for travellers went up, jobs were cut and service levels went down.

We have built and paid for our airports with our taxes and passenger fees. Now Carney is giving them to the private sector so they can generate a profit off of us.

Earlier this week, Prime Minister Carney announced his plans to privatize Canada’s largest airports.

So, I went to YVR to ask Canadians what they think (spoiler: they don’t share his enthusiasm).

Today US-backed Israel is murdering children again.

They do it every single day.

FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸

[Avi Lewis @avilewis]

There's a reason previous Liberal governments looked at privatizing airports and didn't go through with it.

Private investors don't want a stake in our public assets to make them better. They’re in it to make as much money as possible for themselves - while passengers and workers pay the price.

Doug Ford has:
1. Increased hydro rates
2. Cancelled energy projects
3. Sold/outsourced services
4. Cut/privatized health
5. Cut education
6. Broken promises
7. Nearly doubled debt
8. Increased municipal taxes by cutting/downloading
9. Increased waste
10. Lined pockets of donors

[Avi Lewis @avilewis]

As we said from the moment this idea was first floated: privatizing our airports benefits no one but corporations out to make a profit.

🇵🇸 All of Ed Sheeran’s scheduled supporting acts have quit his Loop tour after Macklemore was removed for declaring “Free Palestine” and condemning Israel’s genocide during two MetLife Stadium shows.

➤ Finneas, the Grammy-winning American singer and producer best known as Billie Eilish’s brother and collaborator, withdrew from six South American dates: “Artists must not be silenced when they speak up for the oppressed. I stand with Palestine and its people.”

➤ Dublin singer-songwriter Aaron Rowe said Irish people know “genocide, forced famine and violent occupation.” He accused billionaires of silencing opposition to Israel’s genocide and “the savage murder of children.”

➤ Danish pop band Lukas Graham, known for the hit “7 Years,” said: “Money doesn’t give you the right to own the conversation. Nobody’s bank balance should decide who gets to speak.”

➤ Beoga, the Northern Irish folk band that collaborated with Sheeran on “Galway Girl,” served as his touring band and helped found Irish Artists for Palestine, said playing venues that silence advocacy for a free Palestine was “simply not an option.” The group accused “the Zionist lobby” of trying to silence artists.

Sheeran says he is “not complicit,” as promoters and stadiums made the decision to remove Macklemore. Macklemore noted that billionaire Robert Kraft rallied venue owners to threaten the tour with cancellation if he remained.

Double-tap strike on a child trying to rescue a rescue worker. During a “cease fire.”

This comes as Israeli media and politicians are calling a documentary about this sort of attack a “blood libel.”

[Chris Glover @chrisglover]

Billy Bishop is the perfect example of why we shouldn't privatize airports.

J.P. Morgan is losing money on their investment, so they lobby Ford and Carney for a $5 billion taxpayer bailout to expand the airport for jets and destroy the waterfront.

If we privatize our airports they no longer serve us. Corporations increase fees and reduce service to maximize profits.

Ms Rachel is dragging Ed Sheeran and I’m here for it.

[Prem Thakker @prem_thakker]

Ms. Rachel:
"Ed Sheeran had an opportunity…Instead he caved to people who refuse to accept what the world knows."

"If more than 20,000 white children were killed…everyone would be shouting…Treating some children's lives as less worthy of outrage is racist."

[Craig Mokhiber @CraigMokhiber]

What is the price of a man’s soul? Ed Sheeran, who has accumulated hundreds of millions of dollars, when pressed by a few racist billionaires, sold his for access to a few money-making venues. And just like that, his legacy is forever tarnished. He will always be remembered as the guy who, from a position of extraordinary comfort and privilege, chose complicity over courage in a time of genocide.

[Drop Site @DropSiteNews]

According to Macklemore, Ed Sheeran told him that the words “Free Palestine” and the image of the Palestinian flag were hurtful to people Sheeran had spoken with. Macklemore, who was dropped by Sheeran as the opener in his U.S. tour, said Sheeran ultimately “couldn’t get past his public facing, ‘I don’t take sides.’”

Twitter accounts surfaced videos of Sheeran taking a side in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, including playing a benefit concert for Ukraine.

👇🎥 Ed Sheeran: “Firstly, I just wanna say to all Ukrainians that I love you. I stand with you, and I’m so proud to be playing this fundraising event…”

Everyone should watch this speech.

"The irony of accepting an award for covering a genocide in the very country that enables that genocide should not be lost."

AJ Faultlines documentary, Kids Under Fire, won "Outstanding War or Violence Conflict Coverage" at the 2026 News #Emmys in New York City yesterday.

Josh Rushing dedicated the award to journalists killed by Israeli forces.
