@MikeHun1644 @PatriotInSF @GovTimWalz You are on the wrong side of history when you support fascists like Putin and Dubinsky. Trump is an embarrassment. President Zelensky is a hero.

[Carol Sweeney (she/her) @MaconEchoDrive]

@CraigSmpa I am watching you speak on CBC News and you are lying. Trump and Vance blatantly bullied a true hero who is actually fighting for democracy unlike you who is supporting someone who is siding with Putin.

@CilComLFC Cillian you are dishonest and manipulative.

Teachers, beyond Orange Shirt Day, be sure to also teach Indigenous resilience and excellence year round.

Our existence is resistance. 🧡🪶

Let’s me remind you. Surrender means Russian occupation. Russian occupation means torture, sexual violence, enforced disappearance, denial of your identity, forcible adoption of your own children, filtration camps, and mass graves.
Occupation is just another form of the war.
