Citizens United says corporate money and spending equal speech. Well, then, you can make YOUR spending speech too. Donโ€™t buy from those destroying our democracy. Put your money where democracy is.

Mahmoud Alsaqqa, Oxfamโ€™s food security lead in Gaza, tells Al Jazeera that โ€œthe whole world, unfortunately, is contributing to or participating in starving the children in Gazaโ€ by not taking any action against the blockade that started more than two months ago.

You've always stood up for democratic reform, Nate Erskine-Smith, and your voice matters more than ever in a minority Parliament. This is the moment to use your freedom and leverage to push for proportional representation. Let's fix the system so every vote truly counts. #cdnpoli

Trumpโ€™s team built a snitch site targeting Canadian doctors. Not US doctors. Ours. It asks people to report gender-affirming care. Every province was listed. That's not some code fluke. It's a political threat to scare Canadian health workers into silence.

Incredibly powerful investigation in Dutch newspaper NRC: Seven of the worldโ€™s leading genocide scholars โ€” including renowned Holocaust experts โ€” describe Israelโ€™s actions in Gaza as genocidal. And according to them, nearly all of their peers agree.

This is offensive. Our values and our culture are under attack. We must defend Canadian care workers from the culture that sees caring as weakness and human diversity as a bug and not a feature. America can keep its bigotry to itself.

First-past-the-post means Canadian politics is built around winning suburban GTA swing ridings. Proportional representation means politics would be built around earning support from every voter, no matter where they live. #cdnpoli

And remember also dear public that was a 0.6% cumulative increase in the price level over 6 years (from 2019 when the carbon price started), so about 0.1% per year. The carbon price didnโ€™t cause inflation, and itโ€™s removal wonโ€™t end inflation.

Does anyone care we have a raging drinking problem in Canada. Just read the news. Spend a few hours in an ER. It's the cause of untold suffering. While I enjoy a beer, we are out of control. For many it's a big joke to guffaw over. Others have to pick up the pieces of lives.

What really needs improvement is our democracy-distorting electoral system, which lets governments elected with a minority of the vote force through their agenda with unaccountable majorities. Demand proportional representation. #cdnpoli

Of course. If there's affordable housing, people will buy or rent that instead, and REIT investors don't want that. Duh. Almost all our politicians are landlords and real estate investors, so they are incentivized not to "solve" the housing crisis.

Norway elects its government using proportional representation. Proportional representation is superior to first-past-the-post in handling finances, saving for the long term and staying the course. Alberta Manitoba and indeed the entire country would be better off with

Am I the only one who finds it galling that premiers are pitching major projects to an open-eared prime minister right now -- including pipelines -- as a province burns around them and people are forced to evacuate???? As a result of wildfires, exacerbated by climate change???

So we're really going to welcome Donald Trump to Canada in the midst of his long-planned attempt to extinguish US democracy? Never mind his attacks on our economy, or his threats to annex this country. We're going to roll out the red carpet for the wannabe dictator of America at

A Crown agency built under an outdated first-past-the-post system just scrapped a visionary rail partnership with Deutsche Bahn, from a country that uses proportional representation. When the system is stuck in the past, so are the decisions it produces. Canada needs PR.
