Guest Column: How to Take Sides on the Intervention in Iran By StΓ©phane Dion, Diplomat in residence at the University of Montreal

Not much to disagree with in this analysis by StΓ©phane Dion. -- don't use UN as the metric - Our allies are roughly doing as we're doing, for the same reasons. and "I understand that reasonable people may come to a conclusion different from mine."

Just fed the nuthatches and chickadees crumbled raw cashews here.
Deluxe treats.
To get them through the last weeks of cold as they wait for the snow to melt.

#MeTooPelvic Content notice: sexual assault, unconsented pelvic examination

TW.
This is gutting.
Mindless, 'automatic' or 'routine' care is so dehumanizing. And far too many women (practitioners) have internalized misogyny. There should be no place for this in clinical practice. #MeTooPelvic

Tell Carney: Oppose Illegal Attacks on Iran As Trump and Netanyahu drag the region into war, Canada is shamefully cheering them on. Canada should be a voice for de-escalation, not a booster for US-Israeli aggression. Join us in emailing Prime M...

PM Carney you must explicitly change your position on this illegal war. And the continued war crimes unfolding in plain view. Canadians do not support your initial stance or this war.
Canadians - share your voice. Sign here...

BC just decided to go with Permanent Daylight Savings Time. This is so wrong.
Time change twice a year is bad, yes.
But we should stay on Standard Time.
We need to end DST, not make it eternal πŸ™„
Read the research folks. Don’t follow this news like sheep πŸ‘ demanding your province do the same.

I appreciate this is intended as humour but a war with Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ will have serious repercussions. It will be lethal. Read the reports πŸ€”.

Canada Feeds the Crocodile This morning, I keep thinking about Winston Churchill, and the powerful allegory he used to warn that the appeaser is the man who feeds others to the crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.

Aliya Rahman, woman who was dragged out of car by ICE in Minneapolis: "I've spent the last month learning the names of the tendons in my shoulder, because both of my shoulders are torn -- cartilage and tendons. But what I haven't learned is the names of the people who did this to me."

If the USA Women’s Hockey team wants a real celebration and invite ,,, I’ll host them in Las Vegas. Do some nice dinners and shows and good times.

I’m sure I can get a hotel and airline to help me out here and celebrate these women for real for real. πŸ‘πŸΎπŸ‘πŸΎπŸ‘πŸΎ

I Caught POLITICO and the New York Times Laundering Pink Slime "News" How the sexist backlash to AOC and Gretchen Whitmer at the Munich Security Conference led me to a scammy "local news" outlet pushing a coordinated right-wing narrative

Interesting post about the coordinated anti-AOC smear campaign. It's 2016 again! Fake local news outlets on Facebook getting picked up until eventually it winds up in the Washington Post.

While disappointed in the gold medal hockey result, watching how the US administration and hockey team conducted themselves in the aftermath makes me even prouder to be Canadian today.

We are the greatest hockey team, on and off the ice. We will lose some games, but we'll never lose our class.
