STORY, updates to come: Edmonton former journalist Duncan Kinney has admitted to spray painting a bust of Ukrainian World War II leader Roman Shukhevych with the words "actual Nazi," then writing about it, claiming he didn't know who did it. edmontonjournal.com/news/cri…

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say Kory Teneycke isn't a fan of Jamil Jivani

If my advance directive says "please give me MAiD when my dementia gets to the level that I'm a burden on my loved ones", them the answer is you give me MAiD, not respond to my delirious protests. If you don't know how to "interrogate delirium or confusion", you shouldn't be a doctor. There is NOTHING HARD about this scenario, except if you don't understand how brains work.

When it comes to mental illness, serious concerns remain about whether MAID requests can be assessed safely and consistently. For that reason, Canada does not intend to move ahead with the scheduled expansion of MAID for mental illness.

When your pilots are trying to kill you, maybe you need to wake up to how the world sees the crimes facilitated by your society? And actually ... do something?

Had the pleasure of interviewing @mattyglesias for @TheHubCanada. He's an American that knows a disturbing amount about Canada. We discussed Trump’s conflict with our country and why the President might just be doing it for the "lol"s, why average Americans are not coming to Canada's aid, and why a Democratic President might keep the Cdn tariffs in place. We get into the rise of Mark Carney and the Liberals. He says Carney is running "what seems to be clearly the most successful centre-left political party in the world right now." Yglesias examines how the Liberals have gone from the party of historical reckonings to one that has claimed the mantle of Canadian patriotism. We also get into the struggles of the Democratic Party. Yglesias asserts left-wing parties need to embrace patriotism to win. Finally, we talk about the rapid rise of the Democratic Socialists of America (now the largest socialist organization in U.S. history). WATCH: youtu.be/ny3eqbpY50Y?si=W_Nf…

It must be fun being Robyn Urback because there's gotta be a degree of comfort in assuming everyone around you is a fucking idiot

NEW - CBC News has learned a deal has been reached to merge CentreBC with the BC Conservatives. Lorne Doerkson will lead the party, and candidates will run under the Conservative banner. An announcement is expected shortly. #bcpoli

Embarrassing that Robyn has such a huge platform to engage in this bad-faith defense of Israel through trying to make politically toxic to engage in any acknowledgment of the ways ISRAEL conflates its actions with Judaism (and legislates an apartheid ethnostate in their name)

Tonight Yom Kippur begins, the most sombre moment of the Jewish calendar. It’s a time of atonement - a time to grieve those who have been lost, a time to acknowledge and take responsibility for harms we have caused, individually and collectively. For Jewish people, the personal has always been political and the political always personal. This year I'm reflecting on the fact that we failed to do our part to stop an ongoing genocide committed in our name. There are many other fronts where I have to do the work of repair. But nothing on this scale.
