@JesseBrown @atRachelGilmore This was the “Walk for Israel”, not the “Jewish Pride March.” The people that chose to be there support Israel. The revulsion is not performative, because genocide is bad. This was not a celebration of Judaism. It was a celebration of colonialism. Not a great look as Canadians.

@patagleason @NYCMayor The “spoils of war” being the homes they were expelled from? That makes sense Patricia, astute analysis

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed.

Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us — one of home, tradition and memory over generations.

It’s time to build affordable homes, a national network of public grocery stores, electric buses and an east-west clean energy grid. Not massive corporate AI data centres unleashed without any democratic debate.

There's also no real data sovereignty in an AI ecosystem dominated by U.S. tech giants. Telus may be Canadian-owned, but it has already transferred 14 petabytes of Canadian data onto Google Cloud as part of its AI strategy.

This is a technology that will bring sweeping changes at a scale and speed never seen before. Canadians deserve real oversight and a robust regulatory framework before we rush ahead.

That’s why we’re calling for an immediate pause on the construction of any new AI data centres until strong federal guardrails are in place.

We can’t sit back and let Big Tech billionaires decide our future for us.

@IAmClintMurphy @krystalball @kthalps @MicahLasher Agreed Clint, targeting places of worship is a bullshit move. Holding signs outside of them leaves them standing though

Canadians are lucky that our most prominent right-wing public figures happen to be both inherently unlikeable and possess instantly off-putting voices, regardless of the words themselves. You can’t appeal to bigots if you sound like a dork (Poilievre, Peterson, O’Leary, etc)

To put this moment in American terms: imagine if MTG announced she was now a Democrat and was greeted warmly by the entire Democratic party. That happened in Canada yesterday

[Supriya Dwivedi @supriyadwivedi]

guys maybe we should all re-read Values, it’s possible we all missed the part where Carney said we don’t need to actually have any

[WakeTheDrones @WakeTheDrones]

@CdnComrade They’ll just walk across the floor one at a time instead though

[WakeTheDrones @WakeTheDrones]

@fp_905 This energy is good because by the next election the CPC will be just Pierre yelling at clouds, the anger at the Liberals will also apply to Conservatives who crossed the line, and the NDP might actually be able to capitalize on the situation under new and competent leadership

@addammy1 I fear the tent has become much too big

[WakeTheDrones @WakeTheDrones]

@MoondogGord @fp_905 5/Making that shrivelled up d*ck hard and that’s not your fault it’s someone else’s for being hot and existing? To summarize - f*ck you

[WakeTheDrones @WakeTheDrones]

@MoondogGord @fp_905 4/Were told to makes you an awful person. As a gay man wearing makeup I experience maybe 1/10th of the nastiness and casual hate trans people have learned to live with. But how dare you be asked to use a different pronoun I guess? Or question why a non-BiOLoGiCaL FeMaLe is

@SamanthaTaghoy @Laurieluvsmolly Context: S.Guzzman is a superior journalist by asking Grok for more info. Please keep the racism inside your own borders, Canada is attached to one crumbling empire already we have enough going on at the moment

[WakeTheDrones @WakeTheDrones]

@MAGACult2 I think it’s time for you all to stop worrying about spreading democracy or freedom or whatever and look inward. And maybe read more books or something idk. Corporations aren’t people and billionaires don’t care about you.

@AJCNeilson @Calibism1234 @RiseOfAlberta Like Puerto Rico? Will they get to vote?

[WakeTheDrones @WakeTheDrones]

@Calibism1234 @M3RKCrash8 @RiseOfAlberta Yes I would love to pay exorbitant amounts of money to access hospitals. And more school shootings please. I wish the wealthiest among us had the freedom to pour money into our political system. Education should be much more expensive. Not enough police brutality. USA! USA!
