Western governments claim to oppose Israel's occupation of the West Bank and uphold international law, but our undercover reporters reveal how donors based in the West are funding the expansion of illegal Israeli settlements and their security apparatus.

Not only does Argentina assault whoever they’re playing repeatedly, they run to the referee and throw a fit and play act every time they’re lightly touched by the other team. Just horrific to watch and it’s really a shame that they’ve been enabled like this.

This @fordnation MPP also spent over $81,000 on rent for their constituency office last year.

That's more than any other MPP, even MPPs with offices in downtown Toronto where, surely, rent would be higher.

Has anyone visited? Must be a nice space!

[Kate Dupuis @DrKateTO]

Last year, this @fordnation MPP spent more than $32,000 of our money on this "free" BBQ.

$32,000.

While I'm all for community connection and fun, in the words of Stan Cho, that's a big party with taxpayers' money! Surely there should be a limit on spending?

The Ontario @fordnation government budgeted less for wildfire management across the entire province in 2026 ($150M) than it plans to spend on a parking garage in Toronto ($200M).

That's it. That's the tweet.

Ontario & Canada want a $40B mining project in northern Ontario they call the Ring of Fire.
But First Nations leaders who live there have spent days under fire smoke and what they call unacceptable communication & service.
"Protect Ontario? What is that?"

Video shared by Namaygoosisagagun First Nation shows extensive damage after a wildfire tore through the community this week.

The videos were shown at the Assembly of First Nations yesterday as chiefs adopted a resolution urging the feds and province to step up with more support.

[Jon Thompson @JonSThompson]

BREAKING: For the second day, Canada & Ontario could make no aircraft available to help Eabametoong (Fort Hope First Nation) elders and vulnerable evacuate as forest fires surround the community.

(Sorry. This old pic is all I have. It’s ash raining down in this spot with mist)

[Avi Lewis @avilewis]

Outrageous and unacceptable. The Namaygoosisagagun First Nation wasn’t warned of the blaze that burned their community to the ground and were not given supports to evacuate.

The federal government must recognize Namaygoosisagagun’s status, reimburse them for the services they should have provided and give them the resources they need to recover from this disaster.

in Q1 2026, Brad Bradford spent more taxpayer dollars through his office for his ward than Mayor Chow's office did across the entire city.

Most of this cost is $15,371 that he spent for a 1hr telephone town hall in February regarding the budget.

Pat Tillman was murdered by his own men after making it clear he no longer supported what the American military was doing in the Middle East. He planned to come back and expose everything and the military had him killed for it. His family has repeatedly asked that the Army not use his name or photo for recruitment posters or propaganda yet they have continued to do so.

He did not support the crimes of our military and would be appalled to see his name has continued to be linked to it.

Northern Ontario forest fires have burned over 213,000 hectares, more than the entire 2024 season and outpacing the 10-year annual provinical average of 210,000 hectares.

Here's how to donate to First Nations that have been forced to flee their homelands due to the widespread wildfires.
Please share!

We are wearing masks outside in Toronto today, while Indigenous communities in the North are burning. The Canadian state prefers to spend money on militarization, kill children there and here, rather than provide urgently needed social services, care for the people and the land

[zupa grochowa @Grochowa2]

everything is an app, everything is a subscription, everything is owned by private equity, everything, every type of service, is worse. It’s the enshittification of life

DYK: Canada cut the rural emergency radio station

Multiple communities have said they had little to no warning to evacuate and many lost internet and phone access long before they lost power.

@MarkJCarney must reverse his cuts to emergency comms.

[Avi Lewis @avilewis]

Incredibly brazen for the Prime Minister to boast about the “lasting benefits” of expanding fossil fuel production on a day like today.

Record-breaking heatwaves. Toxic smoke engulfing cities and towns. Out of control wildfires forcing entire communities to evacuate.

This government is spending billions of dollars in public money to expand the very industry that’s causing climate breakdown — at a moment when renewables are cheaper and more available than ever before.

No more climate-wrecking corporate welfare. We need a government that protects the people and places we love.
