Today, we celebrate each other. Because Canada is a nation of kind, compassionate, hardworking people — as remarkable and diverse as the landscapes we all call home. Happy Canada Day, Ottawa!

Back from a period away from the app to share my out there dream of one day having a bilingual tv news station in Canada that doesn’t translate English or French. I want to hear the person speak in the language they were speaking. And sure, change languages mi-phrase. #Canada #ottawa

A common refrain I see on social media is that if you can't boycott perfectly, why boycott at all? After all I'm still on Bluesky which is American! A boycott doesn't have to be perfect to be successful. Collective action works one purchase at a time. And we're still going #elbowsup #Canada
