@garyvee@veefriends I'm 25. I own the biggest comic store in Canada. I've done nothing but sell comics for 10yrs. Your content inspired me to not get a regular job. I started my company with $3k and now we sell over 1000 books a day. https://t.co/Bu9q2zX3Hp
Canada Post’s union is nuts. With the corporation already bleeding hundreds of millions, the strike is causing small business - one of the last reliable customers - to make permanent changes towards alternatives for mail based payments, shipping and marketing.
Many of these customers will never return, preventing Canada Post from meeting any of the union’s demands.
My read is that the union is acting only for those at or near retirement age (already a huge group) with zero thought to the future for newer employees.
Whatever the stripe of the next govt may be, it will need to cut Canada Post back to the bone in order to have any hope of salvaging the mandate of even basic services for all Canadians.
This is a disaster.
DOGE will soon begin crowdsourcing examples of government waste, fraud, & and abuse. Americans voted for drastic government reform & they deserve to be part of fixing it.
The rumors were true! The rumors weren’t true! To find out what’s really true about my next steps in service to the mission that launched my campaign, in my own words, please watch this video of my press conference today.
America is lucky it’s not in a civil war right now, yet we are in a kind of cold civil war. What is this experiment we call America? Let us look back and remember who we are, and how our greatest leaders—like Abraham Lincoln—comported themselves in the face of civil war. We must realign ourselves with the founding spirit of our nation. Are we ready to reach across the divide? I am, and that is what my campaign is about.
This is Robert F Kennedys Jr’s VP. Even though she has never served political office, she understands foreign affairs more than anyone who has. If we pass up these candidates this year, our country will regret it for a very long time.
Bobby and Nicole are here to serve the people, not the corporations.
Timeline of Events
Sunday
•Joe Biden drops out.
•Kamala Harris announces campaign with Biden endorsement.
•Kamala Harris says she is going to work hard to earn the nomination.
•Kamala Harris makes calls to party delegates.
Monday
•Kamala Harris continues making calls to party delegates.
•Kamala Harris makes two public speeches.
•AP announces Kamala Harris has secured enough delegates to be the Democratic Nominee (Monday night).
•Kamala Harris releases this statement, noting she has worked hard to “go out and earn this nomination” as promised (Monday night).
A 24-hour process of talking to party bosses is not democratic, nor is it a process Democrats should be proud of. We do not live in a dictatorship. Delegates are not oligarchs.
Installing Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee and an unknown vice president without any public voting process would make the modern Democratic Party a party of hypocrites.
We call on the @DNC to create a process that allows for public participation in the nomination process, not just a nomination by party delegates.
#BREAKING In a world where online platforms have become critical for the distribution and consumption of news, the Canadian government has made a perplexing move. The recently passed Bill C-18, also known as the Online News Act, requires Google to pay for merely displaying links to news content. Google's response? They've announced they will remove links to Canadian news from their Search, News, and Discover products once the law takes effect.
Why does this matter? Well, first, let's examine the nature of the internet and the way we consume news. Online platforms like Google have democratized access to information, breaking down barriers and providing a global platform for news publishers to reach audiences they never could before. By requiring payment for links, Bill C-18 undermines this fundamental principle.
The Canadian government, led by Heritage Minister Pablo Rodriguez, seems to have overlooked the fact that these links, which they now want to tax, serve as gateways to the news sites themselves. Google, or any other search engine for that matter, does not host the news; it simply points users in the right direction. Now, if those directions are removed, how are users supposed to find their way?
What's more, the notion of a "link tax" exposes Google to uncapped financial liability. This isn't just a business concern; it's a dangerous precedent. If governments can impose fees on the facilitation of information access, what's to stop them from extending this principle to other areas?
Rodriguez and the Liberal government claim that this bill is meant to support Canadian journalism. However, what we see is a government caving into the pressures of the news lobby, rather than considering the wider implications for its citizens. In this digital age, Canadian users have become accustomed to the ease of finding news through platforms like Google. Removing that capability does not support journalism; it creates barriers.
We need to question the competency of a government that views the throttling of information access as a win for its people. Sure, the news industry has faced challenges with the rise of digital media, but the answer is not to cling to outdated models and penalize innovation. Rather, it's to adapt and evolve.
Bill C-18 is not just a misstep; it's a step backward. Instead of fostering a more connected Canada, this legislation risks leaving Canadians in the dark. That's a loss for everyone. The government needs to reconsider its approach, for the sake of its citizens and the future of news consumption in Canada.
