Well, we certainly can't have kids learning about a different time and place from their daily reality! That would be terrible.

I wanna encourage allies to make donations today. Every sexual assault centre in the country has seen an uptick in calls *just* from the trial, let alone today's verdict. I'd also encourage you to support the most effective rape resistance program in the world (based here in Canada!)

This was just posted by @tbretc.bsky.social on another platform. The Chicago Sun-Times obviously gets ChatGPT to write a ‘summer reads’ feature almost entirely made up of real authors but completely fake books. What are we coming to?

Despite the horrific SA trials happening in both Canada and the U.S. today, and all the testimony given by Cassie and E.M., women will still continue to be mocked for choosing the bear. But the bear would NEVER. Survivors are not okay today. #BelieveSurvivors

'Tis the season for my "sun hives" to return. Anyone else with a UV allergy have tips to share? (Aside from the obvious one of staying in the shade, where I already spend 90% of my time.) Best sunscreen recs? Remedies for some relief? Help. #SummerProblems #SunSensitivity #ClimateImpact

Very pleased to see @editorscanada.bsky.social make this move!

Geez. My sixth grader's teacher can't even convince the kids to use the communal deodorant spray, let alone litter-train them.🙄

Greg Abbott is pushing the “FURRIES Act” claiming schools are giving litter boxes to students who act like cats. But when I asked the bill author, he couldn’t name one school providing litter boxes to kids. This is all part of Abbott’s smear campaign against our public schools.

With all sincerity, Elections Canada is a national treasure. - Voting typically takes less than 15 minutes - We make it easy for citizens to vote, without cumbersome registration hurdles - We have every reason to trust that ballots will be counted fairly, and results reported swiftly

All the Americans in my feed: Phew, good job Canada! Rest easy! All the Canadians in my feed: many stressful things are happening on several fronts

This is STILL TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT. Canada may appear to be more progressive than the U.S., but don't be fooled: far too many people have voted in favour of division and exclusion. We aren't immune. #CDNPolitics #CanadaVotes

OMFG! Specifics TBD, but we seem to have done the good and smart thing. So thankful. @ctvnews-rss.bsky.social projects a Liberal win! #CDNPoli #CanadaVotes

Grateful that gardening is legal in 🇨🇦, because the stress of this election day is truly next level.

Let this be your daily reminder that dystopia writers are not predicting the future. We are merely looking at the present and using critical thinking skills to figure out the dumbest possible way things could go wrong

Voting ends soon. Check the voting hours in your area so you don’t miss out. And if you’re in line to vote, stay in line.
