PSA: Canada is co-hosting the 2026 FIFA Men's World Cup. It is being incorrectly shared that is is the "first" World Cup held in Canada. WRONG!
Canada hosted the 2015 Women's World Cup.
You're welcome.
This is utterly abhorrent. Just two days ago, I attended a town hall with hundreds of local residents who strongly oppose the takeover of the Toronto Islands and the expansion of Billy Bishop Airport. @fordnation does not give a shit about local democracy!
NO support for students (OSAP gone) NO academic achievement whatsoever. NO Canadian University would do this for "Captain Canada" NO support for our education system
NO to Doug Ford
I will never understand how so many of y'all were hoodwinked into believing the government should not use the money YOU PAY IN TAXES to create a social safety net that benefits YOU.
Ford is literally saying "fuck you" to all of us. He is saying "all the illegal shit I've done, and all the illegal shit I'm gonna do....poof"
WE ARE NOT MAD ENOUGH
#BREAKING: Democracy dies in darkness. Doug Ford just passed a law to hide his phone records and 40 years of public records.
Honest governments don't change the law to protect them from the truth. As Premier, I will roll back these changes and restore transparency, trust, and faith in our democracy.
Doug Ford is crying about being scrutinized
BUDDY. You’re blocking FOI requests with legislation!
We WISH we had the power to scrutinize you and get your bloody cell phone records.
Jeff Bezos has $222 billion.
If he paid my wealth tax this year, we could fund insulin in America for everyone who needs it plus free school lunch for every kid in Texas—and have plenty of money left over.
And Bezos would still have $215 billion dollars to spare.
Not a word yet from @MarkJCarney and @AnitaAnandMP on Trump’s genocidal threat against Iran. This rhetoric presents the ultimate test for Canadian foreign policy, asking just how much illegality Canada is willing to tolerate. Failure to act would itself be an unlawful omission.
JUST IN: Maine is about to become the first US state to ban new data centers.
And 10 other states are right behind it.
Maine wants to freeze massive construction projects until late 2027.
The bill passed the Democratic-controlled House (with Republican support). The Senate is expected to follow. Gov. Janet Mills backs it.
And right now, at least 10 states are advancing similar bans.
AI runs on electricity. MASSIVE amounts of it.
One large data center uses at least 20 megawatts of power. That's enough to light up 15,000+ homes.
And someone always pays for that power.
Right now? You do.
When data centers flood a state, power demand spikes. Utilities raise rates. Homeowners get the bill.
Data centers need land. They need water. They need MASSIVE amounts of electricity.
What happens next will affect AI development timelines.
The next 18 months will decide whether the AI energy problem gets solved or gets worse.
