Winnipeg’s favourite plutocrat-in-residence, Gail Asper, strikes again. The Museum is a Crown corporation. She doesn't own it. “One-sided” is the Zionists' attempt to censor Palestinian voices and perspectives. Rich people's donations always come with tax breaks... And strings attached.

The Winnipeg family that led the effort to build the Canadian Museum for Human Rights will not provide support going forward, philanthropist and honorary board member Gail Asper says.

Again, what right wing Republicans and Democrats call "socialism" is the sort of regulated capitalism that was consensus for much of the 20th century. They pretend it's anti-market when really it's only anti-oligarchy

I find the mere sight of Trump crony Pete Hoakstra offensive. He has no idea what he's doing and no business being in Canada. Encourage our gov't to expel this asshole. Sign in the link below. Takes 30 seconds. Let your voice be heard.

Fuck this guy forever. Hundreds of thousands of the world's poorest people have already died because of his casual cuts and so many more are doomed. He is one of mankind's most evil figures.

‘I got carried away’: Elon Musk expresses regret about Doge and wading into Trump’s orbit

This story is crazy. It would appear Trump admin officials rigged their nationally televised high school civics contest to keep a young man from a Sikh family out of the finalists. www.notus.org/national/ame...

Suspicion and Doubt at the National Civics Contest

America’s finest young scholars competed to mark their country's birthday. It led to a disputed finish in the age of mistrust.

Oh, and stop using the stupid "elephant versus mouse" metaphor. Canada has the 11th largest economy in the world. We're no mouse. If we started restricting oil and potash, the US would feel very real pain. We can hurt these fuckers. We *should* hurt these fuckers. Too bad our PM is a coward.

Trump's new 50% tariff to hit even CUSMA-compliant goods | CBC News

U.S. President Donald Trump is moving to impose tariffs of 50 per cent on a wide range of Canadian exports, a dramatic ramping up of his trade war against his northern neighbour.

20 years ago OTD in Blue Bombers History July 20, 2006. Bombers are down by 3 to Eskimos with the ball on their own 10 yd line and time for one last play. Kevin Glenn and Milt Stegall play pitch and catch as Stegall scores a 100 yd touchdown to give the Bombers a 25-22 victory.

Hey Wpg Jets fans. Guess who owns Thomson Reuters? Pretty fucking disgusting. Employ a sexual assault covering up GM, owned by an ICE loving owner. But go ahead and keep chanting "True North"...

NEW: DHS plans to pay Thomson Reuters $125 million for access to its databases which includes peoples’ names, addresses, Social Security numbers, ethnicity, social media posts, and geolocation information — to help ICE investigate “voter fraud”, according to documents reviewed by 404 Media.

Calgary... Pass it around. Someone might know this "mulleted douchenozzle". A few days ago, I did see a TikTok that people found his SM, and he went dark. Needs to have a FAFO moment.

Someone remind why this type of exciting play needs to be removed? What’s the reason again?

The City of Winnipeg is one step away from chopping $1.2 million from its tree planting program to fill a separate budget gap.

Canada better join this. Russia should not be allowed to ever compete anywhere as long a single Russian soldier remains in Ukraine (including Crimea). Yes others should be banned as well (such as Israel), but there's still absolutely no reason to allow the Russians back. #BoycottUSA #BoycottLA2028

Gord Miller 🇨🇦 🇺🇦@gmillertsn.bsky.social · 4w ago

The initial reaction from senior sports federation officials in Europe is that reinstating Russia while the occupation of Ukraine is ongoing will likely lead to a mass European boycott of the LA Olympics, and there will be pressure on Canada to join it.

Can you imagine if Winnipeg seriously pedestrianized a street with nightlife, instead of just a dead zone down a section of Graham with no fronting businesses?

Rodney 🚧🚇@chanface.bsky.social · 2mo ago

It’s surreal seeing it come full circle. The people stuck in the crowded Church Street sidewalk are now free to roam the streets! (At least during the 2 month pedestrianization pilot) Streets are for the people!

Haven’t even gotten to biggest elephant in the room that too many folks are conveniently ignoring, though.

What is so hard for Carney to understand about the fact that the American fascist regime cannot be worked with? Stand up for Canada, like you promised to do to get elected! Hoekstra should never be allowed into Canada. Ever.

"The short answer is no," says PM Carney when asked whether U.S. Ambassador Pete Hoekstra should be asked to leave after sharing a post from President Trump reiterating a call for Canada to become the 51st state. "It's an administration that we have to work with." #cdnpoli

Manitoba has no legal obligation to subsidize any automaker, much less one from a country waging a tariff war against us, and certainly not one whose CEO attacks democracy and champions fascism.

Winnipeg Free Press@winnipegfreepress.com · 2mo ago

Tesla’s Canadian subsidiary is asking a judge to overturn the Manitoba government’s decision to exclude the automaker from a taxpayer-funded rebate for electric vehicle purchases and leases.
