Murray Sinclair was a great Canadian, a great Manitoban, a great Anishinaabe.  His career stands as a legacy of public service and a deep commitment to truth, fairness and dignity for all people.  He was the first Indigenous person to be named to the Manitoba provincial court and the Court of Queen’s Bench of Manitoba. He was the first, but he will be remembered as one of the best.  He was appointed co-commissioner of the Aboriginal Justice Inquiry, which laid bare systemic racism within the justice system and is considered a foundational perspective on the system’s relationship with Indigenous people. He led the Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Inquest and his report spurred systematic change in the delivery of pediatric cardiac care in our province.  The penultimate moment of his career was his work as chair of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada. He approached a process that could have been divisive and instead transformed it into Calls to Action for the future of our country, helping all Canadians to learn to walk together into a future of respect and understanding where we live up to the phrase residential school survivors taught us – Every Child Matters.  It will be a long time before our nation produces another person the calibre of Murray Sinclair. He showed us there is no reconciliation without truth. We should hold dear in our hearts his words that our nation is on the cusp of a great new era and we must all “dare to live greatly together.”  On behalf of the people of Manitoba, I extend my condolences to his family and to all Canadians for the loss of Mazina Giizhik.  A sacred fire will be open to the public on the north side of the legislative building grounds until Murray Sinclair’s funeral later this week.

America needs you to take a stand, President Bush. Donald Trump is now encouraging violence against Liz Cheney, the daughter of your own Vice President. He isn’t afraid to stand up to Donald Trump - why are you? RETWEET if you think George Bush should endorse Kamala Harris!

BREAKING: Nikki Haley admitted Kamala Harris has a large lead among women voters because Donald Trump and JD Vance have been remarkably offensive. Retweet to make sure all Americans see Nikki Haley bash Trump and Vance.

Can't stop thinking about how Starbucks can afford to give its new CEO $113 million & a private jet, a $10.6 million golden parachute to its departing CEO & a $60 million golden parachute to the CEO who left in 2022, but still can't sign a first contract with its union workers.

Clarence Thomas ruled in favor of Citizens United. Harlan Crow and his family's political contributions then went up 862%. Then we later find out Thomas let Crow take him on lavish trips, buy his mom's house, and help fund his wife's conservative nonprofit. See how this works?

Clarence Thomas reportedly failed to disclose more private travel provided by conservative megadonor Harlan Crow. This is on top of recent reports that Thomas has received more than $4 million in gifts over the last two decades. I stand by my call for him to resign.

I don't think this has gotten enough attention: Trump keeps saying he'll cut funding for schools that require vaccinations. pbs.org/newshour/show/…

The @PsychoPAC24 just put this new billboard up outside of Mar-a-Lago. Well done 👏

Doug Ford @fordnation and his crony government make decisions about the health of the citizens and voters of Ontario by doing the bidding of lobbyists who used to work for him, and crossed over to #BigPharma . theijf.org/ford-pushes-fo…

John Deere announced another round of layoffs last week, impacting hundreds of workers. But the company reported a profit of over $10 billion in 2023. Its CEO received $26.7 million in compensation. And it spent over $7 billion on stock buybacks. Textbook corporate greed.
