There is no need to strip away people's constitutional rights in order to build things in this country.

Interested in the history of feminism and social democracy in Quebec? Check out my podcast that tells the remarkable story of Thérèse Casgrain. She was a wealthy socialite from Montreal who became the first woman to leader a political party in Canada!

The Alberta Referendum is a Danielle Smith project, designed by the Alberta government, foisted upon Albertans at a time when they are seeing rising costs, a crisis in healthcare and in classrooms, and real serious worries about the U.S. perspectivesjournal.ca/alber…

Unless Canada realizes that it must look beyond numbers and into the needs of its prospective immigrants, as a human right rather than an economic benefit, any policy “reset” will continue its failures, argues Themrise Khan.

The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is about action. For the Broadbent Institute, this means fully implementing the rights and title of Indigenous peoples and supporting their goal of achieving self-governance as a Broadbent Principle for Canadian Social Democracy. Learn more at nctr.ca

All the federal government’s use of Section 107 does is bypass parliament and the democratic process of debating a Bill to achieve the same result slightly quicker. It’s a very cynical tool. perspectivesjournal.ca/c39-l…

Danielle Smith is shifting the blame for Alberta’s policy failures on to newcomers who were just celebrated for their contributions to Alberta’s life and economy. It distracts from the real failure of this government’s agenda of privatizing health care and education.
