To those few loud people on this hellsite, claiming to be pro-Palestine but now performatively attacking Abdul El-Sayed for welcoming a much-needed endorsement from Kamala Harris (it’s a swing state, he only won half of the Dem primary vote and needs the other half to win the general, and he especially needs Black voters), and thereby increasing the chance of pro-Israel, pro-war Mike Rogers winning in November, I can only say this:

In my house, we’ve spent the evening looking at images coming from of Summerland, BC and our friends in the interior.

This is what summer is now, for the rest of our lives.

There’s nothing inevitable about making the situation worse. We could change course tomorrow.

[Tyler Meredith @tylermeredith]

I repeat: now is always a good time to treat climate change as a serious issue and move at speed and scale not seen in a generation. The cycle will repeat itself. We know this.

[Alberta NDP @albertaNDP]

Danielle Smith called for a massive $130 million separatism referendum knowing Elections Alberta doesn't have the resources to run it.

This is going to be a mess with long voting lines. Request your mail-in ballot NOW!

“I don’t see there’s any need for the provincial gov’t to chime in.

…I think police were just doing their due diligence to highlight there’s an avenue where police may or may not play a role in terms of if it’s a crime or not.”

@sisuvanhell @yomeeks Omg this is downright hilarious
I have fairly severe complex chronic illness and I can still use 15lb dumbbells for…well whatever it is he is doing here. I can also maintain a thing we call form. LOL. Will laugh about this all day

This is not just racist — it’s a lie.

Indigenous men & women helped build Alberta. Many went to war & died for Canada.

My grandfather, a residential school survivor, built a business, raised a family, and paid taxes his entire life.

Shame on anyone who defends this hate.

[Jared Wesley @DrJaredWesley]

If folks in La Crete want fancy things like hospitals and bridges, maybe they should work harder and pay for them themselves instead of expecting taxpayers in Edmonton and Calgary to subsidize their lifestyle.

Am I doing this anti-equalization thing right?

[Shannon Phillips 🇨🇦 @SPhillipsAB]

@internetuserf12 Just want to thank you for this - I’ve been playing around with it a fair bit and while I keep up with the literature it is still very helpful and I’ll be passing it on to my specialist as well. Appreciate the work you’ve done.

The 20% who lived in the most pro-Trump places suffered 70,000 more COVID deaths than the 20% in the most pro-Biden places. Red America obeyed those who told them not to mask, not to vaccinate. They died for it. No, Fauci is not the villain here. https://t.co/7hxuP9yOfi

Weird I thought it was the genocide.

I’ve noticed Americans commenting on Troy Jackson’s accent (hi, @Lis_Smith!)

He’s from northern Maine and it’s very, very close to a Nova Scotian accent. Super Canadian. You love to hear it! #cdnpoli

[Troy Jackson @TroyJackson207]

Billionaires have excellent representation in Donald Trump and Susan Collins. For everyday working class Mainers, it's a different story.

[Tyler Meredith @tylermeredith]

Note for corp directors: your duty of care and duty of loyalty are not the same. You have a responsibility to shareholders — esp if you’re independent — to be skeptical of management when crises like this arise.

Tobi’s behaviour isn’t just errant comments. It’s a wilful disregard for boundaries and the responsibility he holds to all Shopify stakeholders in how he conducts himself.

Shopify’s Board admitting openly that they provide nothing and serve no purpose.

[Tyler Meredith @tylermeredith]

If I were Joe Natale - the lead independent director at @Shopify - I am not sure this is a headline I’d be all that comfortable with in Fortune Magazine.

@RobWust @NatureComms Huge appreciation for your expertise and effort on this issue. There are many of us in the patient population who are very grateful.

This is completely antithetical to democracy. You'd probably be pissed if we made it so rich people don't vote because they already made their fortune.
I served in the CAF to protect democracy for all Canadians, not just the ones you see as worthy.
Fuck all the way off.

Guy who just retired from @TD_Canada after 30 years: hey, what if we just didn't let poor people vote?

[James Christian Parsons @Dred_Tory]

But...but...wait.

I'm told by @Sean_Speer, @KatlynHarrison, and all the other right wingers who went apoplectic over Coyne's latest piece that mainstream conservatives are mega-patriots and that any suggestion to the contrary is Laurentian gibberish.
