🇨🇦🇺🇦 Canada will provide Ukraine with 5 billion Canadian dollars ($3.7 billion) from frozen russian assets as part of the G7 initiative. Canada was the first country to advocate the use of these funds to support Ukraine. Thank you, dear Chrystia Freeland, for your great commitment. Together we have done a lot to make russia pay. We are grateful to @JustinTrudeau, @cafreeland and all the Canadian people for their steadfast and unwavering support for #Ukraine. _____ 🇨🇦🇺🇦 Канада надасть Україні 5 млрд канадських доларів (3,7 млрд доларів США) за рахунок заморожених російських активів в межах ініціативи G7. Канада була першою країною, яка підтримала використання цих коштів на підтримку України. Щиро дякую Христі Фріланд за значні зусилля. Разом ми багато зробили для того, щоб росія заплатила. Вдячний @JustinTrudeau, @cafreeland та всьому народу Канади за постійну та беззаперечну підтримку України.

An election distraction: what TV show you've seen in, say, the last five years has ... a) most exceeded your expectations, and b) fallen farthest short of your expectations. Feel free to offer multiple answers. (Sadly I have way more for B than A.)

@dave_wakeman @drvolts C from A is always great and occasionally stellar. The dog kennel episode was pitch perfect.

We're letting Enbridge get away with using public land for free. Other provinces have figured this out. They let municipalities charge gas companies to use the land beneath our feet. This lets municipalities raise money to build infrastructure, improve services, and provide supports for the homeless. @AislinnClancyKC and I introduced the No Free Ride for Fossil Fuels Act today to allow municipalities to force these billion dollar gas companies to pay their fair share. They can afford it. Visit gpo.ca/green-over-gre… to learn more and join the call to end fossil fuel greed.

I wonder if undecided voters would be swayed to learn that Jeffrey Epstein was trump's closest friend for 10 years, and why is THIS nugget largely going unnoticed days before the election? I know Elon is suppressing THESE tweets, but he can't suppress the cable news, right? Lordy, there are fucking tapes.

Further evidence (as if any were needed) that the fossil fuel industry is plotting a coup of Earth's climate if Trump is reelected. theguardian.com/environment/20…

No one is talking about it but there's a documented, detailed conspiracy to shred our bedrock environmental laws. It's all in writing - in Project 2025. The media won't cover it - they're distracted by Trump fellating microphones - so we'll share the details here 🧵(1/20)

Years ago, while I was doing consulting work for the City of Sydney, Australia, there was an INFAMOUS day where a particularly bad state minister of transportation was stuck in traffic, and saw bike riders zoom by his limousine in a safe, protected bike-lane. He had a petty temper tantrum, and ordered that the bike-lane be ripped out. Those were people safely riding who would otherwise have been inside cars, making traffic even worse on that street. They were saving public money, improving their health (and public health costs), reducing pollution and emissions, improving their happiness and quality of life, enhancing their affordability, reducing noise, supporting businesses, reducing traffic congestion, and making more space for better streets and cities for everyone. That transportation minister didn’t understand urban transportation. He didn’t understand geometry. He sure didn’t understand the public interest. Or he did understand, but didn’t care. There were plenty of studies and evidence proving that bike-lanes in Sydney weren’t causing congestion. The bike-lane hadn’t even replaced a lane of car traffic! It replaced street parking, which ironically can contribute to street congestion. He wasted public money, put lives in danger, made the city less healthy, undermined the economic development success of the city, increased pollution, made congestion worse. and a lot more. All because he was petty. It was pretty much one of the dumbest, most damaging things I’ve ever seen a bad politician do. And that’s saying a lot. And now we have what’s happening with the Ford Government in Ontario, with his war on evidence-based decision making, bike-lanes and better cities. Sound familiar, Ontario? The good news? That Australian politician actually didn’t last very long in government.

Before the next Federal election, I want every voting Canadian to take note of this CIVICS lesson…confirmed by Mike Moffatt, Smart Prosperity Institute Senior Director of Policy & Innovation. So who do you think is responsible for housing?

Those of us who remain on this hellsite and do not share the owner's values are the #Xdissenters. We will keep pushing back against the liars, the racists, the misogynists, the fascists. Never let the far right push you out of any space. And wear the label with pride.

Who voted for their taxes to go directly into the pockets of millionaires and billionaires like Galen Weston? Housing, healthcare and cost of living - all more expensive because of the Ford govt. Instead of cheques for billionaires, people want a home they can afford, access to a doctor and an emergency department that is open.

@kevinmyoung or before.

After Madison Square Garden, it is clear that the Republican Party has ceased to be the defacto “Christian Party.”

Donald Trump would really hate it if you RTed this HISTORICALLY huge standing ovation Michelle Obama is getting in Michigan right now! So you know what to do…

Better late than never!

Beyonce has more courage than two centuries old newspapers combined.

A few days ago the Alberta gov called my colleagues and I a bunch of « eco-radicals » for asking 🇨🇦 to regulate the country’s largest polluters - oil and gas companies.🧢 I don't have 7 million in taxpayer dollars for a PR campaign. But what I do have are some facts. 👇 #cdnpoli
