    • Far right fraudster Mark Carney looking to kill right to strike, wants to use essential service designations as “strike bans.” What a cruel greedy lying con man, pimp for America, polluters and the rich. Yup, it’s a cult, worse than liar Pierre Poilievre’s and Smith’s bible-thumping Alberta separatists. May 21, 2026
    • Hosting Trump-worshipping Nazi FIFA will cost Canadian taxpayers more than $1B. Nazifying the masses while families struggle to buy food and many are homeless. Never mind the ICE horrors. The hideousness of Homo naziens never ceases to amaze me. BOYCOTT FIFA! PS Will it bring Ebola to Canada? May 20, 2026
    • Did Nazi Elon Musk, his soulless DOGE boys and the Trump Regime he bought cause the current Ebola outbreak? Will it spread to and in USA? May 19, 2026
    • Genocidaire Mark Carney’s gov’t ramping up legal harms against First Nations fighting to get safe water. FFS, the racist goon gives hundreds of millions of public dollars to American military, American AI, American mineral miners, and American oil and gas companies (they’re the ones doing most of the polluting of our drinking water). Lawyer Clayton Leonard: “It’s litigate or go home. I think that’s the only thing that will force the government of Canada to ensure First Nations have access to clean drinking water.” May 19, 2026
    • Excellent Jenny interview with High River Mayor Craig Snodgrass on Smith and her separatist UCP betraying Albertans helping Australian billionaire Gina Reinhart destroy Grassy Mountain, zip royalties for Albertans, few jobs, much air, water pollution and health harm, no matter what fancy new fangled lies they spew “committing” to reclaim the mine and treat the water. 22 more days to sign Corb Lund’s petition.

    • “When Genocide Wasn’t News” and “Copaganda”: Anti-Palestinian Racism and Pro-Police Bias in Media. Joshua Sealy-Harrington: “Israel has killed over 680,000 Palestinians in Gaza during its livestream genocide.” That genocide is connected to policing in USA and Canada (gives Jews safety over all others, violating spaces and expression). “Police are just lying all the time.” “The use of antisemitism to attack Palestinians is prevalent. … even saying the word genocide is antisemitic.” Free Palestine! Stop Israel! May 17, 2026
    • Mark Carney’s ecological betrayals. “For this government, the environment has become a footnote.” May 16, 2026
    • Supreme Court recognizes new tort of intimate partner violence. Majority calls it “a pernicious social ill deserving of the full attention of the law.” Something ought to have been done decades ago. May 16, 2026
    • Mikisew Cree First Nation sues Canadian and Alberta gov’ts over decades of harms/impacts caused by the tarsands, including carcinogenic contaminants (six in 10 of the nation’s households have been affected by cancer), metals, arsenic, PAHs in the land, water and wildlife. Chief Billy-Joe Tuccaro said this equates to the failure of the federal and provincial gov’ts to honour rights set out in Treaty 8, signed in 1899, six years before Alberta was created. May 16, 2026
    • Urgent! Mark Carney is deregulating pesticide use. Sounds like Bayer-Monsanto (glyphosate/Roundup), the forestry industry, Croplife (is that Cropscience, which is Monsanto Canada operating as Bayer CropScience?) and farmers wrote his pesticide policy. It’s “worthy of the Trump administration.” Pesticides need more regulation, not less. FFS. Where’s Elizabeth May? Oh, right, she’s a conservative too. May 16, 2026
    • Deregulation by Harper’s Carney hits Nova Scotia May 16, 2026
    • Kitimat BC: LNG Canada continues “spewing unregulated toxic chemicals into residential areas” has done for over a year, at the expense of human health and the atmosphere, aided regulators and Carney. May 15, 2026
    • Carney announces environment to be eliminated as cost-cutting measure; Premier Smith took to the podium, explaining how Carney’s budgetary move represented a massive victory in Alberta’s long-standing war against the environment. Worse than Harper PM Carney aiming to undo the tanker ban with his plan to eliminate targets extinction protections for endangered killer whales off B.C. coast? Religion, in all its supreme ugliness. And, powering the grid with leaking toxic frac’d gas? Fucking insane, most water injected to frac is lost permanently to reuse. Humans deserve to go extinct, other species do not. May 14, 2026
    • Supreme Court of Canada appears to love oil and gas companies that kill, destroy, sicken and pollute, and companies that serve them. CP remains unpunished after 47 killed in Lac-Mégantic rail disaster shipping highly flammable explosive frac’d Bakken crude. May 14, 2026
