We had an amazing time playing MINE-O-POLIS at CONTACT Gallery yesterday--thank you to everyone who came out and for your invaluable feedback on the game. We look forward to finalizing it and making it available to all on our website 🎲

DYK? Toronto is the global capital of mining - nearly 60% of mining companies are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX)! Join @mininginjustice.bsky.social TODAY at TSX to protest the world's largest mining conference. Here's a sneak peek of what we have in store for PDAC this year. #DisruptPDAC

La mayoría de las empresas mineras en el mundo tienen oficinas en Canadá y casi el 60% cotiza en la Bolsa de Toronto (TSX, por sus siglas en inglés)."

Half a million people in London right now. Jewish activists in New York last night. Polls in both countries overwhelmingly support a ceasefire in Gaza. Cannot imagine this level of support even five years ago. Whatever happens, the Palestinians are no longer alone.
