Imagine Bryton and Tyler showing up at your workplace in the middle of a crisis to take selfies and tweet about how they fixed your problems.

Racism is always so stupid.

For anyone skimming by who doesn’t want to rtfa: Edmund Greggains’ objection to Skippy’s Canada First rally speech is that it had too many not white foreign-sounding names in it. Like Patel and Mohammad.

And here he is in a different rant on the same site getting frothy and self-defensive about coolie labour building Canadian railroads, black folk having to escape slave owners and other racist white industrialists even after escaping to Canada, Sikhs existing in Alberta… And here he is again upset about Brampton.

Basic aggrieved white subject using a precious imagined Canadian White Identity to feel important and embattled; upset at Poilieviere and Danielle Smith for not being racist enough. Trying at the end of OP’s linked article to equate the Yankee threat of annexation with all those foreign-sounding names somehow taking over his Canada.

Only through acknowledging this will we be able to fight off mass immigration, restore our hereditary culture, and safeguard the future of a Canadian people and state.

Is this question rhetorical?

Charlie Angus is doing some heavy lifting. Respect.

We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to transition official government communications away from Twitter/X to more secure, community-regulated platforms that prioritise public safety, accurate information, and accessibility. We encourage the government to explore publicly accountable alternatives, including decentralised networks, to ensure reliable and responsible communication with Canadians. - 5359

We, the undersigned, citizens of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to:

1. Ban the social media platform X on all government agencies’ communication channels;
2. Ban political candidates at all levels of governments to campaign, promote, disseminate, and share contents or messages under public or official capacity; and
3. Publicly encourage private Canadian entities and users to use alternatives to communicate and interact with their audiences. - 6378

Enough signatures means a petition HAS to be presented in the HoC and a government response MUST be tabled. The “revoke Elon’s citizenship” petition that got popular is the most symbolic gesture of these 3, but I think they’re all for the same main purpose: make our elected reps talk openly and on the record about the seig heil in the room. If they legislate deplatforming his main propaganda arm, that’s just gravy imo.

Wish there were actual punishments for misinformation instead of cost-of-doing-business fines.

From OP’s link:

Undermining [local autonomy and community ability to veto major projects] with sophisticated, well-funded astroturfing campaigns is a common denominator linking several similar efforts that are taking place in Canada right now. Recent investigations have revealed a pattern of astroturf organizations, directed by individuals connected to conservative parties and/or the oil and gas sector, running “concerned citizens campaigns” in Regina, in Saskatoon and in Crowsnest Pass, Alberta.

These campaigns poison public discourse by flooding the proverbial “marketplace of ideas” with false and misleading information, to the point that it becomes effectively impossible to have a meaningful public conversation.

Leaving this link here in case anyone wanted a quick scroll of the Manning Centre approved media that amplifies all their shit.

Oh cool! https://www.globaldayofunplugging.org/

Thanks for the heads-up OP.

Peat bogs are really important as far as global warming is concerned. Don’t throw hazardous waste on top of them.

the Quebec minister of natural resources and forests introduced a bill to force the city to sell the land to allow the expansion to go forward

That’s so fucked in the head.

“We are not the trash can of the United States,” Ruba Ghazal, an opposition member of Quebec’s parliament, said at a press conference. She said it is unacceptable for Quebec’s ruling conservative party to “expropriate a city to give it to Trump’s United States”.

20 months is incredibly lenient, given the givens. And it’s with time served. AND there’s a possibility of him serving some of that time here in Canada. The kid’s been treated with kid gloves.

Thanks for the heads up about fisherman brand. Never heard of them!

I remember Green Beaver’s lip balm being decent, but they’re not a stick like Burt’s. Just searching with you:

The well site turned up this gem.

Attitude brand looks promising too.

[edit to add scentuals. I haven’t tried their lip “conditioner” but have used other products from them in the past and been happy with em]

Meanwhile, our ACTUAL PM is saying things like:

“The most important thing right now — more important than anything else — is for Canadians to remain united. This is a time for us to pull together.”

and

Tariffs are the USA’s plan to “see a complete collapse of the Canadian economy. Because that will make it easier to annex us, is the second part of his thought. That is never going to happen. Canada will never be the 51st state”

But that doesn’t make good accelerationist bluster for headlines, so all the Yankee media will ignore it in favour of Canadaman Dougie.
