Canada has the longest coastline on Earth. We are an ocean nation. That’s why we’re backing front-line conservation efforts with more than $1 billion to protect them. Our oceans shaped the Canada we know today — and how we treat them will shape our future.

McDonald's is now reportedly pressuring franchisees to use AI to price food. Its CEO raked in $20.6M last year, over 1,000x the median McDonald's worker pay of $19,020. And they remain one of the largest employers of Medicaid and SNAP recipients. I'm not lovin' it.

Sure, the 2024 election was one too, but 2026 might be the clearest intelligence test ever presented to the American electorate.

In March, Washington State passed a tax on millionaires to fund public education, childcare, and expand its earned income tax credit. Now, special interest groups backed by the rich are trying to trick voters into repealing the tax by claiming it will apply to non-millionaires. Don't fall for it.
