David Frum calling Indigenous Rights and Title, entrenched by the Royal Proclamation, acknowledged in law both before and after 1982, "petty veto rights" on the House this morning. Nevermind the Federal Government's legal fiduciary responsibility toward Indigenous communities.
This is a bespoke response to the genuine problem of American streaming domination that would only benefit Bell Media. Why should the Competition Bureau require just the HBO content library to be sold to a Canadian buyer? www.theglobeandmail.com/business/com...
Opinion: A Netflix deal for Warner means curtains for Crave unless Canadian regulators step in
Acquiring HBO assets would hollow out the offerings on Canadian streamer

Social trust, the glue that holds the people together, plummets when people believe society is deeply divided. And that lack of trust feeds the political machine. Read the latest from Evan Fields for Lincoln Square: www.lincolnsquare.media/p/please-sto...

Some call for austerity measures for the fiscal challenges before us. Take a data-driven look with senior economist @iglikaivanova.bsky.social at BC’s fiscal health to challenge these austerity narratives with more sustainable policy solutions. Sept. 17, noon PT. bcpolicy.ca/events/
Born in 1975, I represent the one generation of women who had rights. I’m fighting for my daughters and granddaughters. Fuck this shit.
By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference. But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.
Waiting for the big outlets to put two and two together and realize that police whose identities are secret and facilities are secret are secret police.
The point is that the King (or Queen) is the Commander-in-Chief of the Canadian Military. That's the reason for the uniform a while back, and the throne speech. I understood this immediately. When fascism takes over, they are the last line of defence.

What might Team Canada look like? Give the NDP & Greens party status. Let Poilievre into the House as leader. Work together where you can. Electoral reform before the next election. There is a shiny report sitting there with excellent recommendations. FPTP divides us. It's time to end it.
Alberta is going to repeal a Notley NDP law and once again allow corporate and union donations. It will also increase donations and overall spending for candidates, parties, leaders, and third-party advertisers. It all just smacks of conflict of interest and interference in elections.
Poilievre and the CPC continue to assert that there is no such thing as gender diversity. At all. They want to repeal “Commissioner’s Directive 100, which allows male offenders to be housed in women’s prisons” (CPC Platform for Change, page 12).
There is almost as much sanctimonious sneer in most Canadian political podcast journalism as there is in Pierre Poilievre. Can't wait to not listen to either of them. Although, I may have to shut off my radio if he wins.
1/Lost in the Conservative vitriol over CBC are the thousands of artists, musicians, novelists, poets, and other creatives and journalists uplifted by the public broadcaster. If understanding the power of the arts is not enough, these are jobs. This is economic activity.
Tommy Douglas is as relevant today as ever. Perhaps more so. Tommy Douglas, among other achievements, brought in Universal Health Care in Sask. Now, we watch its slow dismantling because the cats never wanted it in the first place. They fought it then and are slowly privatising it now.

You are brainwashed! No, you are brainwashed. No, you are! Your media choice is brainwashing you. No, yours is. I'm fighting for human rights! No, I am! Meanwhile, media giants smile all the way to the bank, our country is destabilised, and we keep fighting each other.
