Mother of three beautiful children two of which, left far too soon... ZERO tolerance for racism, bigotry, chauvinism, misogyny, xenophobia, ignorance.

Today should be Harrison's 16th bday, July 8th. It's no secret that Harry was a mischievous, flamboyant & creative soul who definitely had his own mind when it came to clothing. It was difficult for Ed to accept Harry's love of clothes but dress by dress, Harry won him over.

[Jenn Neville-Lake @isda1979]

My darling sweet Harry,
I made you a cupcake you will never taste for your bday.
This hurts so badly. Hard to believe i only got 5 bdays with you & now it's triple that plus 1 without you.
I wish I knew who you were growing up to be.
Maligiyang kaarawan, Harry.

An independent review revealed that Danielle Smith "hindered firefighting efforts" during the devastating July 2024 Jasper wildfire. The report states that provincial officials disrupted local command lines by aggressively attempting to take control and flooding fire leaders with political inquiries during an active blaze.

What the hell was she thinking?😡
Danielle Smith is incompetent.

Airbnb owners, if you’re charging me a cleaning fee, I’m not cleaning anything. Hotels don’t charge a cleaning fee, and I don’t have to strip the beds, take out the trash, load the dishwasher, or wash the towels.

Why are you charging a fee whilst making me an employee?

Angus: One of the first things that happened under PM Carney's watch was they banned the Irish hip-hop group Kneecap. So if they can ban Kneecap, why the hell would they have Kristi Noem deal with anything to do with our mineral sector?

@McAllisterBruce Shame on you, Bruce McAllister, shame on you... Uninformed, racist, bigot and in desperate need of therapy... shame on you.

[ForMYCanada @ForMYCanada]

Fine, let's address that.

The Prime Minister doesn't even live at 24 Sussex. The official residence has been deemed uninhabitable for years, and the temporary residence used by the PM doesn't have a full kitchen capable of supporting official functions and security requirements.

Meanwhile, the opposition leader lives in a taxpayer-funded official residence with taxpayer-funded staff, security, transportation, and operating costs.

If we're going to debate public spending, let's do it honestly. Focusing on meals provided during official travel while ignoring the publicly funded perks enjoyed by all senior political leaders isn't accountability. It's political theatre.

Canadians deserve facts, not outrage bait.

This is a portrait I painted of one of many heroes of mine from the Civil Rights movement. The Rev. James Zwerg, circa 1961. He was one of the Freedom Riders, along with John Lewis, William Barbee, Catherine Burks, and many others, who pulled into Montgomery, AL on a bus May 20, 1961.

He volunteered to step off first.

The mob was waiting with baseball bats, chains, and clubs. They beat him until three of his vertebrae cracked, his nose broke, and every tooth in his head was fractured. They beat him unconscious on the pavement. A Black stranger in coveralls walked up and said, “Stop beating that kid. If you want to beat someone, beat me.” And they did. He saved Zwerg’s life.

White ambulances refused to take him. He lay in the street for over an hour. That is the moment I painted. Bloodied suit. Head bowed.

At Martin Luther King Jr.’s urging, Zwerg later went to seminary and was ordained in the United Church of Christ.

Rev. Zwerg is now 86 and lives in Tucson, Arizona. His courage and conviction, alongside that of countless others, helped save this nation. These are the people I celebrate as we near our 250th anniversary as a nation.

Trump is desperately trying to get this video removed from social media!

You know what to do! 🤣🤣🤣

[Melinda L Anderson 🇨🇦 @l_melinde]

@USWPColby You and all ‘trump’ minions are truly shameful human beings and some of the most dysfunctional. So much chaos, damage and uncertainty you spew onto the world. SHAME ON YOU, SHAME ON YOU…

[Brett Chapman @brettachapman]

The Black Hills are the most sacred place in the world to the Lakota people who fiercely resisted the foreign invasion of their land by vandals who ruined their sacred mountain by carving ridiculous giant heads of foreign leaders on it. It is so ugly and looked better before!

@FrancesWiddows1 @LeahGazan SHAME ON YOU, SHAME ON YOU...

[Melinda L Anderson 🇨🇦 @l_melinde]

@francoislegault Shame on you @francoislegault, shame on you... Exploiting the deaths of two very young human beings whose deaths could have/should have, been prevented. Expend your energy and direct your anger at the incompetency of USTC more specifically, trump and his corrupt admin.

[Melinda L Anderson 🇨🇦 @l_melinde]

@ztisdale Then leave… shame on you.

@Gerry39464526 If you don’t like it then leave… shame on you.

[Brett Chapman @brettachapman]

This was one of the worst crimes of the United States. All to shift control of Native American land and natural resources to white hands—bad!

[Jenny Kwan @JennyKwanBC]

The RCMP’s "Native extremism program" is a jaw-dropping betrayal. Wiretaps & secret dossiers were used to target leaders fighting for their rights—not security threats.

I’m calling on the Public Safety Minister to release all files & hold public hearings. Accountability now. ⬇️

@TaraArmstrongBC Shame on you, @TaraArmstrongBC, shame on you... I don't know how you look at your image in a mirror and feel satisfied... that you are a decent human being. Shame on you...
