Collins First Nation can’t be assured of federal help because Canada systematically discriminates against Indigenous people in too many ways to name. This time, Minister of Indigenous Services says the community “exists in a policy gap”. JFC. www.winnipegfreepress.com/canada/2026/...

Fire-ravaged First Nations community accuses Ottawa of denying it federal aid

OTTAWA - A small First Nations community in Ontario that was burned to the ground by a raging wildfire on Monday is being deprived of the help it needs because the federal government doesn

Please give if you can, and share widely. Neither Canadian federal nor provincial govs care to prevent these fires, they don't care about these people and wildlife who have lost everything. These folks can't wait for help, we as humans need to step up and take care of each other.

So here's an interesting thing I'm seeing in these conversations about "Canadian wildfire smoke." Some Yanks are saying the wildfires are because Canada outlawed Indigenous traditional burning practices. This way, Canada remains the bad guy for oppressing Indigenous Peoples - which is true. 1/5

The core function of white supremacy culture is division. AI is being used to divide legal system decision makers from their decisions, making systemic racism more efficient to perpetrate. It's not a coincidence that AI and white supremacy culture are expanding at the same time. #cdnpoli

Ontario's jails are using an artificial intelligence tool that disproportionately places Black prisoners in maximum security The government anticipated its tool AI would produce biased outcomes, but used it anyway My latest @breachmedia.ca investigation breachmedia.ca/black-prison...

All Protocol Observed Welcome to Issue 245 of The Continent. What happens when a liberation movement delays succession for too long? Muhoozi Kainerugaba is more than an Uganda's chief internet provocateur and the president’s son. He's the heir apparent, maybe. bit.ly/245_TC

This is the cover of The Continent (Issue 245, dated 18 July 2026) featuring a satirical illustration of Uganda's General Muhoozi Kainerugaba reimagined as the Joker. The headline reads: "The heir apparent, maybe."

Muhoozi lounges casually in a large presidential-style chair beneath the Ugandan coat of arms. He wears an exaggerated Joker-inspired outfit: a purple suit, bright green shirt, oversized green bow tie, purple gloves and a light green military helmet instead of the Joker's trademark green hair. His face has been painted with a wide, unsettling red grin and heavy eye makeup, giving him the Joker's manic smile while remaining recognisably Muhoozi.

He reclines with one leg draped over the arm of the chair, projecting supreme confidence. In one gloved hand he casually twirls a revolver with a white flag tied to the barrel reading "BANG" in red letters, referencing the Joker's trick weapon. In the other hand he fans a set of playing cards, another Joker motif.A poster with a warm cream background features the words "Reading is resistance." in large, bold black lettering at the top.

Below the text is a colourful illustration of a person lying on their stomach reading a newspaper. Their elbows rest on the pages while their head is propped up in their hands. They wear a pink shirt and a cap, with a pair of shoes on their raised feet behind them.

The reader is sheltered beneath a roof made from the open pages of a giant book. The book is supported by two oversized upright books on either side, creating the shape of a small house or tent. The books are illustrated in soft blues, purples, greens and yellow, giving the image a warm, inviting feel.

At the bottom, the poster invites people to subscribe to The Continent for free by messaging a South African phone number on WhatsApp, Signal or Telegram, or by emailing read@thecontinent.org. The Continent appears in bold black type at the very bottom.

Over 850 wildfires are burning across Canada, engulfing several First Nations in smoke. In 2023, @emmapaling.bsky.social spoke to Indigenous activists who had one piece of advice for governments on how to halt the now-annual fires: stop building pipelines. breachmedia.ca/first-nation...
