You know who was pretty quiet today regarding the masked white supremacists mobilizing in Kamloops with residential school denialism on the eve of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation? @PierrePoilievre. Here he is posing with the group's founder.

Thx @thewalrus for a great article exposing the ‘big lie’ of Alberta victimisation weaponised by Smith’s opportunism. Our report with @ABFedLabour documents how it’s not Ottawa, but the greed of business @ its UCP backers, that explains Albertans hardship: https://t.co/IAhfCZyvQ4

The AFN strongly condemns the display of racism and hate by white nationalists today at Tkʼemlúps te Secwépemc. We call for a full investigation and for governments and Canadians to join us in pushing back against racism. There is no place for this in today’s society. We must stand together against ignorance, racism and lies, and stand up for First Nations rights, for truth, and for reconciliation.

Putin’s “aspirations” include invading and conquering all of Ukraine. Hard to carve out a win for him here, Jared. Painful to watch these guys.

As a Canadian let me say that Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner don’t speak for me in any way. They are a fawning, incompetent embarrassment. They are also a walking, talking never ending conflict of interest,

It's clear that the ban on American booze is working. U.S. booze stays off the shelves, until Canadians get a fair deal.

Hébert: "Increasingly what you're hearing from Conservatives in public, not in private, is that they believe he will never be PM. And for sure, what you see on the ground, anecdotally, is that Canadians have tuned them off. They've turned off the radio. And when you turn off the radio on the leader of a federal party, you are doing it to the entire party."

"Thirty minutes after that social media post, Pete Hoekstra sat down with Global News for an exclusive interview and defended the president's threats."

Canadian media insisting on platforming Hoekstra are complicit in sanewashing Trump's attacks on Canada, and it needs to stop.

Bellavance: "Every time [Trump and the Republicans] make those disparaging comments about Canada, they make the rupture with Canada more profound. I think it's going to take generations for us to forget what this president did to Canada."

BREAKING: New Emergency Resolution passed today re: Alberta Separation:

The Annual General Assembly of the Assembly of First Nations (AFN) has passed a landmark resolution to protect Treaty Rights from threats posed by a separatist movement in Alberta. The emergency resolution was put forward by Sunchild First Nation and Confederacy of Treaty No. 6 First Nations Grand Chief Joey Pete and Proxy Chief Matthew Coon Come, Cree Nation of Nemaska, Quebec. It states that no province has the legal authority to alter, diminish, or extinguish Treaty Rights or the constitutional relationship between First Nations and the Crown.

Nations from across the country have expressed their solidarity with Treaty First Nations in Alberta in opposing this threat. First Nations rights are not negotiable and continued cooperation among First Nations will be essential in protecting Treaty Rights for future generations.
