lol fucking Carney rubes thinking he was 'defending Canada' with military spending He was always and only interested in making capitalists richer.
My latest article...Canadian army cutting reserve military jobs, cancelling some training. Defence Minister David McGuinty's office did not provide comment on the cuts. ottawacitizen.com/public-ser… via @ottawacitizen

The funny thing about Carney bringing in his neoliberal ideas is that when they fail to improve material conditions, people will switch to the Conservatives, who will bring in even more neoliberal ideas.

The Prime Minister is pushing massive expansion of AI, but data centres come at a cost to our environment, our communities, and our electrical grid. When I ask how the government will protect Canadians, the answer is always, "Don't worry about it!"

AI-enhanced faces can falsely implicate innocent people. Upscaling does not recover missing facial details. It fabricates them. Do not circulate AI-generated faces as evidence. Share the original image. A false identification can destroy an innocent person’s life.

It quietly uploads advertising IDs, nearby Wi-Fi signals that pinpoint your location, and usage analytics to manufacturers and advertisers for tracking. Most of that never got a clear yes from you beyond the fine print.

Les 40 milliardaires du Canada ont vu leur fortune augmenter de 95 milliards de dollars l’année dernière. À une époque où les inégalités de richesse atteignent des niveaux sans précédent, il est inacceptable que ce budget ne prévoie aucune nouvelle mesure visant à faire en sorte que les plus riches paient leur juste part. C’est pourquoi nous avons réclamé la mise en place d’un impôt sur la fortune des plus riches, qui pourrait rapporter jusqu’à 40 milliards de dollars par an.

Late stage capitalism: A supermarket throws perfectly good food in the dumpster, pays its workers so little they can barely afford groceries, then asks customers to donate to the food bank at checkout. And we're supposed to admire how fucking efficient this system is.

This is true. – at Calgary, Alberta
They will send your son to die in a war. They will tell him it is for "freedom." For "democracy." For the "rules-based international order." For values. He will go because the economy in his town collapsed and the military offered healthcare and a signing bonus and a sense of purpose, and because generations of cultural conditioning made him believe that service was honor and that his country's wars were just. He will go. And while he is gone, the people who sent him will be at parties. The parties will have young women at them. Some of those young women will be of unclear employment and unclear age. Some of them will not be there entirely by choice, in any meaningful sense of that word. The names of the people at those parties are in files. The files are sealed. Your son is not in the files. Your son is in the desert. When he comes back, if he comes back, there will be a flag ceremony. There will be a "thank you for your service" at the airport. There will be inadequate mental health resources and a benefits system that requires him to fight bureaucracy for years to access care. And the people who sent him will be at other parties. With other young women. With the files still sealed. This is the "free world." This is what it looks like from the inside.

Because all money trickles upwards and giving handouts like the GST rebate only goes back upwards to the rich who then use that money to speculate housing and raise the price of food. A public grocery store would be competition and put a downward pressure on price.

It's systemic. Without a doubt there are other Epstein Islands that we don't know about. They've learned from their mistakes and operate in the shadows. – at Calgary, Alberta
Let's be precise about what the Epstein network actually was. Not a "sex scandal." Not a tabloid story about a weird billionaire and his famous friends. Not a trafficking case in the sanitized, clinical language that makes it sound like a logistics problem. It was a blackmail infrastructure for the ruling class. Epstein didn't accumulate powerful men by accident. He accumulated them by design. The private island. The private jet logs. The hidden cameras. The underage girls. This was an intelligence operation. A systematic, decades-long project to compromise the people who run governments, banks, media companies, universities, and courts. And when he was arrested the second time, when it was finally impossible to make it disappear: He died in federal custody. Suicide, they said. In a cell where the cameras malfunctioned. With guards who had both fallen asleep. After his previous suicide attempt had already put him on watch status. The medical examiner hired by his brother found evidence consistent with homicide. The official medical examiner ruled it suicide. And the name list, the full, unredacted list of everyone Epstein brought to that island and those houses and those parties, remains sealed. Protected by the same judicial system that is supposed to protect you. This is not a conspiracy theory. The documents, the flight logs, the depositions, the testimony, all of it is real, much of it is public, and what it shows is a power structure that protects itself from accountability at every level. The people on that list run your country. They run your media. They run your courts. They are still running everything. And they will call you a "conspiracy theorist" for noticing.

some comments are missing that Americans didn't just reject Trump, they rejected Carney-style policies 1. They rejected Data centres which Carney supports 2. They rejected rapid AI expansion which Carney supports 3. They rejected The Iran War which Carney supports 4. They rejected tax cuts on the rich which carney supports

Avi Lewis is running on a bold socialist program It's time to reject Carney's right-wing bullshit
One thing I know about Canada is that it is a follow-fashion country. NDP, get to fucking work.

The same guy who was caught fixing the price of bread for years now claims that the big grocers have no control over prices. Give me a break. Canadians aren’t stupid. We see Galen getting richer and richer as grocery costs skyrocket. We know we’re being ripped off. It’s time to break up the Big Grocery Cartel and drive down costs with a national network of public grocery stores that Canadians can actually afford to shop at.

The American CEO who bought Stelco is openly admitting that he purchased the company to sabotage it. This is why the Liberals should have never approved Stelco's sale in the first place. When you give away ownership of a critical industry like steel, your economy is forever under another's thumb. There is only one solution that will save these jobs and put Canada back in the driver's seat: we need to nationalize Stelco.
Cleveland-Cliffs CEO: I bought Stelco because I could not afford anymore having Stelco flooding the market here in the United States to the detriment of my own company. David Cochrane: Am I understanding you correctly there? It was a defensive acquisition?
