This needs to be required reading. Check your racism. No, seriously, check it. Then choose to be better. Choose option 5.
This is a long read, but, especially if you're a white person in Canada, PLEASE read it. The most devastating life of racist attacks on someone 'not white' that I've ever read.

🚨Bravo! She mentioned everything #Canadians needs to be aware of @PierrePoilievre & more before the next election. Ppl who’ve been paying attention are thinking the same as her. #PierrePoilievreisLying

Shocking to hear the Finance Minister failed to consider the $225M price tag to accelerate beer & wine into corner stores. Millions of taxpayer dollars at the expense of ON’s healthcare, education system & infrastructure. This is the definition of fiscal irresponsibility. #onpoli

By now you've probably seen the video.
For days now, bullies in Ottawa have been spewing hate and harassing Canadians who don't agree with them.
An Indigenous woman being called a Nazi. Staff being harassed. Journalists being yelled at.
That’s the country Pierre Poilievre wants.
Me? I believe everyone should feel safe walking our streets.
I believe we need to stand up to bullies and shut down hate.
Canadians believe in lifting each other up. Not tearing each other down.
Stand with us.

Today Nunavut MP Lori Idlout has called for an emergency debate in the House of Commons regarding the six deaths. A short 🧵:
"Mr. Speaker, I am writing to you to give notice under Standing Order 52(2) that I will be seeking leave on Monday, Sept. 16th, 2024 to propose.."

Fun fact
Germs travel a lot when flushing a toilet.
This video shows how far and how rapidly the invisible plume is ejected from a lidless public cubicle.

1. One of the main drivers of inflation in the US is skyrocketing rents, which are up 30%+ over the last four years.
So, it's surprising that the recent FBI RAID on a corporate landlord based in Atlanta has received little attention.
The raid was part of a federal probe of an alleged CRIMINAL CONSPIRACY AMONG LARGE LANDLORDS TO JACK UP RENTAL PRICES

It's not a line.
It's a measurement.
A measurement of commitment.
A measurement of sacrifice.
A measurement of discipline.
A measurement of integrity.
A measurement of fortitude.
A measurement of effort.
How do you measure up to 'the line'?

Horseshit. MLSE is there to fleece the fans with high prices on tickets, food and merchandise while putting a mediocre product in front of them.

'A former Shoppers Drug Mart franchise owner has filed a proposed class action lawsuit against the Canadian retail pharmacy chain, and its parent company Loblaw, alleging the companies imposed "unsafe and unethical" corporate practices on franchise owner pharmacists to increase profits.

The claim was filed in Ontario Superior Court last week and intends to cover both franchise owners whose agreements have been terminated since 2014 and current franchise owners in Ontario.
"When you put policies on the associate owner that require [them] to breach their professional obligations at the risk of losing their franchise ... you place them in a conflict of interest between their obligations to patients and their obligations to the business," said lawyer Aly Haji, from Ricketts Harris law firm, which filed the proposed class action.'

A sitting Premier, going along with the conservative trend of inviting far right figures to this country, smiled and chuckled while a disgraced American provocateur made disparaging remarks against the LBGTQ community.
We should be ashamed. If not that, we should be angry.

I live in fear of COVID in the same way I live in fear of wild lions.
I don’t think about it every day, but when I think I might encounter it/one, I make sure I use my brain and protect myself.
Not sure why this is hard.

The CPC continues to be a tire fire and has now been completely owned by the Liberals for three straight weeks.
