As we said from the moment this idea was first floated: privatizing our airports benefits no one but corporations out to make a profit.

It’s time to break up the grocery monopoly. There’s a clause hiding in grocery store leases that keeps your bill high, and most people have never heard of it. It’s called a property control, and the giant chains use it to block competitors from opening anywhere near them.

I wrote to Doug Ford today: recall the legislature now so we can pass emergency protections for Ontario workers and businesses.

If you’ve ever wanted a T-shirt repping a racist Canadian group pushing for mass deportations, your purchase is just a few clicks away — all thanks to Shopify. When I reached out to them, they said "we don’t remove merchants over objections to their worldview.” Wow. My latest for @thetyee.ca:

The $250 billion Canadian company has repeatedly found itself in controversy over its support of ‘free speech.’

That's right folks -- the Dominion Society sells merch, and it's powered by Shopify. The store is still up after I brought this to the e-commerce giant's attention. The company actually has a track record of helping some seriously unsavoury characters profit. I expose it in this piece.

Shopify's CEO, Tobi Lutke, publicly mused about taking away the right to vote from the poor and pensioners. He's been increasingly involved in efforts to influence Canadian politics. Now I'm exposing how, through its e-commerce services, his company helps unsavoury characters line their pockets.

...might be some weird artifact, but this is fucking EKOS, they called Poilievre's fall months before anyone else Anyway Stiles is doing fine right now but I'm wondering if this is downstream of Lewis' efforts to put the federal NDP back together

2/ Canada’s participation in this spectacle puts progressive Canadians at real risk. It’s outrageous, and the Prime Minister owes Canadians an explanation as to why he’s involving our country in this ugly episode.

1/ Trump is fuelling a new McCarthyism that is both delusional and dangerous. It’s clearly intended to crack down on Americans who are resisting his anti-democratic agenda. It’s also a serious escalation of violent authoritarianism from our next door neighbour.

This government is spending billions of dollars in public money to expand the very industry that’s causing climate breakdown — at a moment when renewables are cheaper and more available than ever before. /2

Incredibly brazen for the Prime Minister to boast about the “lasting benefits” of expanding fossil fuel production on a day like today. Record-breaking heatwaves. Toxic smoke engulfing cities and towns. Out of control wildfires forcing entire communities to evacuate. /1

PM Carney is once again supporting U.S. violence and impunity. Canada can’t control Trump’s chaos. But we can take a clear stand for lives, livelihoods, international law and global stability. New Democrats say: stop the war. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

The spring economic update was a missed opportunity to address the crushing cost of living crisis. In a country as rich as ours, there is no reason life has to be this hard.

The government should be protecting our public airports, not selling them off for parts. History is littered with examples of the failures of privatization. It drives up costs for the public, quality suffers, and workers always end up paying the price.

The DOJ violates the Epstein Files Transparency Act on the daily. So I'm suing Todd Blanche. As a journalist, I cannot report accurately on the Epstein Files if I cannot even read them. I am represented by @brendanballou.bsky.social & we seek to hold the DOJ accountable for its noncompliance.

Premier Wab Kinew is on the file. No American liquor in Manitoba until Trump drops the tariffs and releases the Epstein files.

I've asked the Ontario Liberal and Green leaders to join me in calling for a full Auditor General investigation into Ford's $30M jet disaster. The good people of Ontario are looking to us to be united in pursuit of accountability and transparency.

To every volunteer, donor, organizer and NDP member who helped power this history-making movement: thank you. We are building a new foundation for our party, and we are ready to come roaring back on the Canadian political stage. Let’s get to work!
