Made plans to see a follow Nova Scotian when I visit CDMX next month, and it turns out my hostel is one block away from his new apartment. Leave it to two Maritimers to make Mexico City feel small.
My column has been updated with some new details, by the way — including the news that American engagement in nuclear talks with Iran were all a lie. www.thestar.com/opinion/star...
The United States once again used negotiations as a cover for the attacks it intended to carry out regardless.
It is a declining empire determined to drag the rest of the world down with it — and Western allies are its eager lapdogs, despite all their invocations of international law.
Every month the United States provides even more reason to boycott its products and companies — the strikes on Iran being just the latest.
In light of that, it’s a great time to ditch the products and services of US tech companies. I made a comprehensive guide to help you.

“The children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe; and I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this may be incapable of morality.” - James Baldwin
Yipeng with a group of children in a refugee camp in Syria.
I’ve been thinking a lot about these words from James Baldwin. Every child has the right to life and health. Don’t let anyone convince you otherwise. Every child deserves protection and safety. The children are always all ours.
Maybe we could have both if we taxed the oligarchs instead of funding their losses at the expense of the public purse.
Harrison Faulkner: Hockey programs should be more heavily subsidized across the country. The cost for Canadian kids to become goalies is far too high. Rink fees are outrageous and ice time needs to be seriously reconsidered. Pricing kids and Canadian families out of the game while bulldozing historic hockey rinks is insane. Ripping the heart of hockey culture and demonizing Hockey Canada to score political points has a detrimental impact on the country. It should be a right for Canadian kids to play hockey, not a privilege.
Canada's Olympic hockey defeat is driving right-wing influencers into the arms of socialism
Mayor Brandon Johnson announced “Abolish ICE” as the winner of a citywide snow plow name contest. He had earlier given it a “full and complete” endorsement.
I want the monarchy abolished but will accept arrests for now
One important enabler of car-free (or car-light) living? Access to car share!
In Montreal’s central neighbourhoods, between 20 and 43% of households are members of Communauto — the oldest car share service in North America.
But the more suburban boroughs are seeing high growth.
Car culture helped bring about Nova Scotia's projected $1.4-billion deficit and congestion crisis. The province's response is to dump more money into highway widening while transit stares down service cuts (despite high ridership) and the loss of bus lanes (to car congestion).
My friend and I had a blast watching this in theatres 😁
It’s funny to hear this report list all the ways Chinese data collection could be a threat when the US does the same things and poses a much greater threat given Trump’s 51st state comments. There’s only a brief acknowledgement at the end that the US isn’t trustworthy either.
Does everyone have a favorite correlational data set or just me? For me it's this one, the decline in passenger car sales mirrors the decline of Halifax's road quality.

The government is giving a loan to a Crown corporation that should just be a public service that we pay for because it provides an essential task that Canadians depend on.
We don’t provide loans to the health care system or schools; we just pay for them.
Agreed!!
Let Black history month serve to remind us that the living legacy of slavery is the carceral state- policing, prison, immigration detention, and border enforcement. Abolition now.
Winter lays bare all the ways our communities fail anyone who is not in a car
Anne Frank died of typhus at Bergen-Belsen
Policies that "protect neighbourhood character" or "keep neighbourhoods stable" rarely achieve that goal. While the outside of neighbourhoods remains the same, everything else changes.
Neighbourhood characters make up the neighbourhood character.
We will miss Cinta Ria!!!
Alison Luchs, who has worked at the National Gallery of Art for 47 years, agreed to learn Gen Z slang and make videos because she wanted to raise interest in the museum’s art.
She never expected to slay. https://wapo.st/45BXc3S
Tonight while in the gym changing room, I realize I forgot my headphones. Annoyed, I go start my workout. Much later I realize I don't have my phone on me and that I'd left it in my locker. I was raw dogging my workout no phone no music for *forty* mins. Am I so over or are we so back?
