Canada vs the USA, GDP per capita. Why is Canada falling so far behind? "a substantial share of Canadians who would rank among top earners in Canada have emigrated to the United States—roughly 40 percent of potential top 1 percent earners and 30 to 50 percent of the next nine percentiles." - Charles Lammam Canada is effectively exporting its most productive and talented to the USA. They gave up on Canada and left. The brain drain simultaneously lowers Canada's average income while raising American income, accounting for a significant share of the persistent GDP gap.

Julian Assange: The goal of war in the Middle East is "to wash money out of the tax bases of the United States, out of the tax bases of European countries... and back into the hands of a transnational security elite." "The goal is to have an endless war, not a successful war."

Euthanasia is routinely offered to Canadian seniors unsolicited. Muriel says she was offered MAID: •By her family doctor •By a specialist •By a funeral home  “This is almost being advertised and promoted,” she told me. How do you think this makes seniors feel?

🚨BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: MAGA billionaire donors are about to MELT DOWN as Senator Mark Kelly unveils a plan to ELIMINATE federal income tax for Americans earning under $46,000 - and slash taxes up to $161,000. And here’s what rich Republican donors don’t want you to see: It’s fully paid for by people making over $1 million a year. Not working families.
Not the middle class. The millionaires and billionaires sitting on more wealth than they could ever spend. Kelly laid it out to CTA Media Network’s Joe Gallina: "billionaires…have more money than they… can spend in multiple lifetimes while we have people (who) can't afford a place to live and can't send their kids to college and never go on vacation. It’s just not right.” This isn’t a tweak. This game-changing bill takes a sledgehammer to a broken system - and forces a reckoning with the affordability crisis Donald Trump made worse.

@DanKnightMMA We should be discussing human rights and foreign interference with America and Israel.

So let’s get this straight. Mark Carney stood in front of cameras and assured Canadians he raised human rights and foreign interference with Beijing, said it plainly, repeatedly, confidently. And now his own government quietly admits… he didn’t. It’s almost impressive, the speed at which “clear-eyed” turns into carefully avoided. Canadians get the speeches about democracy, climate change, and human rights. Beijing gets the silence, the deals, and the smiles. And somehow we’re all expected to pretend those two versions of reality don’t exist at the same time. #FFS #cdnpoli

Today I$rael tried to kill me in a targeted airstrike in southern Lebanon as I was reporting on was the targeting of bridges and the forced displacement of 1 million people, an ethnic cleansing operation on a larger scale than the Nakba I have absolutely no doubt that this was deliberate. Despite claims there were no warnings ahead of the strike and no notifications sent to the Lebanese Army who allowed us to film As we have seen in Gaza they want to silence journalists who document and report their war crimes It is the western powers who provide political and military support for I$rael, arming it to the teeth to carry out genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing here in Lebanon. They are not simply complicit, but active participants and should be held accountable for their actions. But if I$rael thinks today’s strike will silence us and keep us out of the field they are very, very mistaken

Iran hanged a 19-year-old wrestler on the eve of Nowruz. His name was Saleh Mohammadi. He won bronze at the 2024 Saitiev Cup in Russia. He turned 19 one week before the rope. The charge was moharebeh, waging war against God, for his role in the January protests that swept Iranian cities after the currency collapsed and bread prices doubled. Amnesty International said Mohammadi was denied adequate defence, forced to confess in proceedings that bore no resemblance to a trial. Iran Human Rights described the execution as an extrajudicial killing and warned that hundreds more face capital charges. The Norway-based organisation said the hangings were designed to create terror and suppress dissent during wartime. Two other men were hanged alongside him in Qom on March 19. All three were convicted of killing two police officers during the protests. The trials were fast-tracked. The confessions were extracted under what rights groups describe as torture and coercion. The executions were public. Consider the timing. In the four days before Mohammadi was hanged, the regime lost its intelligence minister, its Basij paramilitary commander, its most senior security official, and its IRGC spokesperson. Four generals killed by precision strikes that the regime could not prevent, could not detect in advance, and could not retaliate against with equivalent precision. The same government that cannot protect its most senior officials from American and Israeli munitions can still hang a teenager from a crane in a public square. The disparity is not incidental. It is the regime’s operating logic. The war it is losing in the sky is compensated by the war it is winning on the ground against its own citizens. Every JDAM that kills a general creates an internal security vacuum that the regime fills with executions. The hangings are not despite the war. They are because of it. A regime under existential military pressure accelerates domestic repression precisely because it cannot project strength externally. The rope replaces the missile as the instrument of state authority. Mohammadi was an athlete. He competed internationally. He travelled to Russia for the Saitiev Cup and came home with a bronze medal. The same Russia that is now reportedly hosting the Supreme Leader for medical treatment. The same Russia providing Iran with targeting coordinates for American warships. Mohammadi competed in a tournament named after a Russian wrestling legend, returned to Iran, protested his government, and was killed by that government while it begged the same country for hospital beds and satellite imagery. The January protests were the largest in Iran since 2022. Millions participated. The regime responded with what Human Rights Watch documented as lethal force, mass detention, and internet shutdowns. Thousands were arrested. Now, three months later, with the regime’s military capacity being degraded hourly and its leadership being eliminated weekly, the judiciary is processing those arrests into executions. The war provides cover. The world is watching Hormuz. Nobody is watching Qom. A bronze medal and a noose. A 19-year-old body that was trained to compete and was used to demonstrate. The regime that cannot protect its IRGC spokesperson can still kill its wrestlers. The war will end. The executions will not. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…
