Fiver Trois Spotlight : Nate Doucet on the drums. If you listen to this guy speak you understand what rhythmic latitude this musician requires of anything he emits. Grammatically circuitous, he extends time while echoing back his own interpretation with a flare. ..

My record is out today. It's called Cleaning House. Market logics would have me tell you what it's about, but I'm an actual songwriter, and I believe the song should be understood through itself. After all, I did sing it for you. I literally already pitched it.

This story I wrote for @nationalobserver.com won gold at the Atlantic Journalism Awards last night :,) I'm proud of this one, it was the last story I wrote in Atlantic Canada before moving to Toronto. Thank you to @jameswsthomson.com for editing it, and to the Isthmus for being beautiful. ✨

Thanks to Tim @halifaxexaminer.ca for the reprint - my first one at the fabled outlet! On the IG post for this story, I plugged in @fiverfines.bsky.social’s new track R.J.D., which I’m obsessed with. You’ll wanna check that out here while reading the story: fiverforreal.bandcamp.com/track/r-j-d

Out in the Cold, Part 1: Surveillance, smearing, and shutdown of a harm-reduction shelter by Euan Thomson @drugdatadecoded.ca

An Indigenous comedy troupe apparently pranked Lindsay Shepherd, a former BC Conservative staffer who was fired after she complained bitterly about having to view any symbols of Orange Shirt Day (In Canada, Orange Shirt Day commemorates experiences of residential school survivors)

"I found out recently that I was deceived by social activists in an elaborate scheme dating back to January. A production group with what I now know has a fake name and fake identities gave me a friendly interview about my book A Day with Sir John A, and about Sir John A Macdonald, back in Feb. They connected me with a fake company called Heritage Figures Canada with a fake website and "hired" me to perform consulting work for them. We had what I now know were fake meetings, fake documents, fake commercial shoot, fake prototype of a Sir John A collectible. Then in a second filmed interview last week, they turned on me, and it was revealed to have all been a setup in order to demonize Sir John A and smear me. It turns out this is a taxpayer-funded CBC and APTN project. There is so much more, I will make a video. They also deceived @FrancesWiddows1"

🧵 Why are we suing the Calgary Police? It’s hard to describe what happens to you physiologically while being smeared in public by powerful people. It’s a mix of uncertainty, fear, frustration, rage, indignation, and anguish, on a thick layer of pity — for self and others you know are in it, too. 1/

a song with one uncleared sample can be a legal nightmare for an artist. a song made with AI models trained on millions of unlicensed songs? increasingly acceptable. my latest for maisonneuve on generative AI music, ownership + who actually benefits. maisonneuve.org/article/2026...

Penny for Your Bots

Music companies and organizations are racing to work with AI tools, but they risk further marginalizing artists and creativity.

I guarantee you there is a private-sector proponent behind each of these policies ready to profit off people they make vulnerable. It’s the UCP way.

Jared Wesley@jaredwesley.ca · 5mo ago

To recap: Danielle Smith's UCP want to: 🔴 force you to undergo involuntary addictions "treatment." 🔴 prevent you from securing lifesaving gender-affirming care for your child. 🔴 severely restricted your access to medical assistance in dying. Takes the compassion and care out of compassionate care.
