8/ None of these giant changes make our country more secure, independent, or stable. None of them directly address the cost of living crisis. All of them promise corporate welfare for the billionaire class, and more hardship for the 99%.

7/ The message to Canadians is crystal clear: the C-suite asks, and Ottawa delivers. If you're a powerful corporation, you go to the front of the line. If you’re struggling to pay rent, feed your kids, or find a family doctor, you’re told to wait.

Gas prices should be a wake up call to everyone that non-fossil fuel energy is a necessary evolution of our society, now! yesterday! The continued dependence on fossil-fuels is making us poorer and ruining our beautiful environment.

idk why people see Carney as strong. To me this is abject weakness and simpering capitulation to capital. We need an electrified transportation system in our country. If capital doesn't want to do it, seize the means of production and fucking do it!

The President of the United States is openly threatening to commit genocide against 90 million people. Prime Minister Carney: if there was ever a moment to denounce this illegal war, withdraw your support, and call for accountability for war crimes—it’s now.
Screenshot of a post from Donald Trump: A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don't want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!

So what I've read about the G7 so far is Trump told everyone Putin should be allowed back in, left early to go help facilitate the next war in the Middle East, and then lied about Canada saying we would pay for his Golden Dome. God he'd make such a great Real Housewife, if he weren't such a fascist.
