Mayor Mamdani and a child play with Legos while looking very serious and concentrated. The child is impossibly adorable and wearing tiny blue glasses.

No interruptions, please. We’re building universal child care.

Will Canadians follow Mark Carney's example and travel the world in search of new business relationships? He has not stopped since he became Prime Minister. I'm grateful for the hours and miles he is putting in to help turn our ship away from reliance on the US.

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

The lack of media coverage about the bombing of the girls elementary schools is shocking.

Something to think about when Canada is deciding to commit to buying F-35s from the US. #cdnpoli

Either you believe Trump's threats against Canada are just a negotiating tactic or you believe he is serious. I believe he is deadly serious. I hope more Canadians realize this, stop the wishful thinking and rationalizations, and remain united and focussed.

Yes. This. Except unsupervised = unsupported. Alone = no chance for help. Help that might save a life or change a life. There should be support across the political spectrum for this lifesaving approach.

Do car-free zones hurt disabled people? We asked experts. City planners and advocates are seeing "accessibility used as a political football."

“…disabled people are actually less likely to drive than nondisabled people and more likely to get around by walking and rolling and taking transit. Car-heavy cities are also disproportionately dangerous for disabled folks…”

He can’t speak: “It should frighten us that there aren’t parents who can buy their own kids lunch.” Huh?? There are NO parents who can buy their kids lunch?

He doesn’t understand we don’t want Canadian children to go hungry while he uses tax $ to cuddle up with Vance in Washington, lunch included

The amount of money this would save is negligible. It's a crass attempt to court the xenophobe vote. The Canadian Conservative party is despicable.

It makes sense in a weird sort of way that a Conservative MP, the party that coddles Canadian MAGA and fascists, would want to root out anti-fascists. I hope we all are anti-fascists.

Toronto councillors grilled the CEO of Circular Materials on its troubled recycling rollout. Here’s what he said Allen Langdon appeared at a committee meeting at city hall Wednesday and left councillors frustrated.

Remember Doug Ford's plan to make producers responsible for recycling?

It was predicted to not go well.

Here's another article. It isn't going well and we're only talking about collecting recycling. Wait till we talk about RECYCLING what is picked up.

Hey, you know that terrible Doug Ford idea that will definitely lead to a lot of people dying unnecessarily, all for cheap politics?

No, not that one.

The one about banning speed cameras that are proven to save lives and reduce damage and injuries.

Turns out it’s terrible for other reasons too.

US farmers are rejecting multimillion-dollar datacenter bids for their land: ‘I’m not for sale’ Families are navigating the tough choice between unimaginable riches and the identity that comes with land

Last month, a Pennsylvania farmer rejected $15M from data center developers to sell his farmland.

Another in Wisconsin turned down $80M.

America's farmers and others across the country are pushing back on Big Tech.

This is what integrity looks like.

CBC airing the State of the Union address pisses me off and is also so embarrassing.

I wish Canadians understood that "Everything the US does, impacts us" has become a self-fulfilling prophecy where we rely on them for everything and are therefore, constantly being impacted by their BS.

Kudos to Team USA for winning Olympic hockey gold, but that was some serious loser behaviour after the men's final.

By 5 PM on Feb 23, 2026, more than 500 people rode past this daily counter on the 5 St SW cycle track in Calgary.

It was -17C to start the day and -10C by 5 PM.

Calgary is a winter bicycling city.

The US women’s hockey gold medal winners refusing to go to Trump’s White House, and the US men’s hockey gold medal winners enthusiastically going to Trump’s White House, would actually say an awful lot about the broken state of the United States right now.

The 2026 US Men’s Olympic hockey team is going to be a legendary case study of snatching defeat from the jaws (aftermath?) of victory. And by all indications, they deserve it.

Former ICE agent:

On my first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a judicial warrant.

Canada’s Conservative Party not only has no idea how to govern… they also have no idea how to competently criticize the actual government without sounding small and moronic.
