You suddenly get a narrator describing your life and there’s no way to turn it off - everyone can hear it. While shopping, at work, at home, with friends - the voice narrating your every move goes on. Who do you hope is the voice of this narrator?

🧵 Dear Republican lawmakers, Canada has the largest intact boreal forest on the planet. An increasingly hotter world due to #ClimateChange makes longer dry seasons, far larger wildfires & yes, more smoke. No amount of "raking" fixes it. The scientists warned of exactly this for a very long time /1
I knew this would happen when Canada ended the 1 year of mandatory forest raking service when you turn 18! In hindsight, the plan to pay beavers to do forest management was ill-conceived. /s

Dear Yanks, Unfortunately, we have become aware of an orange rodent, likely carrying syphilis and other communicable diseases, living in our basement. We are trying to smoke it out. Once the syphilitic rodent and its companion vermin are removed, we will turn off the smoke. From, Canada

"Private-public" partnership. The public will pay the full load. The oil giants get all the profit. We paid $34 billion for TMX pipeline. The companies balked at having to pay their share through the toll rates so the public has been subsidizing 50 cents on the barrel. #astheplanetburns
When you’re talking about my home, you better show some respect. Cuz up here we take care of our own So let me give you some advice, mister, you might have too much on your plate. Go’n load us up with tariffs, but we’ll never be the 51st state. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyyF...

Great read on a Canada Day… but sad to see Viola Desmond and Tommy Douglas passed over! They must be #11 and #12, obviously. 😉
Since it is Canada Day, I thought I would share my personal choices for the Top 10 Canadians. This is just my own opinion, nothing more. Everyone will have their own Top 10 and that is what makes our history so great :) Hope you enjoy my list! 🧵 1/12

Socialism for the oil industry but capitalism for AISH recipients in Alberta.
Seriously - there is nothing wrong with the premise of this game, but predators have absolutely targeted it as an avenue to access kids.

The Canada Health Act is clear: care is based on need, not on your ability to pay. The UCP's healthcare scheme is breaking that fundamental promise to Albertans and creating a system where money talks louder than medical need. youtube.com/shorts/UihB8...
