They took away Medicaid from my 82 year old mom. They don't answer the phone and when she showed up in person, they refused to talk to her and told her to go home and call them. She got her low income senior housing because she qualified for Medicaid.

We've all heard how corrupt Ken Paxton is. But he is also incredibly stupid if he thinks this "well, he served 60 whole days" excuse for releasing Adam Hoffman, who sexually abused a boy over a three-year period starting when he was 8.

Back to top
The Westray Bill or Bill C-45 was federal legislation that amended the Canadian Criminal Code and became law on March 31, 2004. The Bill (introduced in 2003  in the 37th parliament, second session) established new legal duties for workplace health and safety and imposed serious penalties for violations that result in injuries or death. The Bill provided new rules for attributing criminal liability to organizations, including corporations, their representatives and those who direct the work of others.

NOTE: The Canadian federal government reuses bill numbers.

The Untold Story of The Elaine Massacre of 1919
This week marks the 107th anniversary of the Elaine Massacre of 1919, where white mobs hunted and killed Black sharecroppers who simply wanted fair cotton prices.

By

Angela Wilson

Published

September 28, 2026

HELENA, AK – SEPTEMBER 29: On the 100 year anniversary of the Elaine racial massacre, a memorial dedication is held for the public on September 29, 2019 in downtown Helena, Arkansas. In 1919, hundreds of African Americans were murdered after local cotton farmers tried to collectively sell their crops for a fairer price in New England. Many locals in Elaine want a memorial to be built in the town where the massacre happened, not in the local county seat where it was plotted. (Photo by Andrew Lichtenstein/Corbis vi.a Getty Images)
