The Canadian time bandits behind Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie Matt Johnson and Jay McCarrol’s film is a lovingly crafted riff on Back to the Future

I cannot adequately convey how much I loved Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie. Read what @hertzbarry.bsky.social has to say about it - and then go see this movie Feb 13 when it opens. Elbows up, laugh your head off, go Canada. NTBTSTM is so, so great.

Opinion: A trial unfolding in a B.C. courtroom shows journalists are more important than ever How much more easily might authorities control the story if journalists aren’t allowed to do their work?

Journalists - and Canadians concerned about journalistic freedom: Photojournalist @amberbracken.bsky.social and @thenarwhal.ca are taking the government to court over Amber's arrest while covering a protest in 2021. The trial is underway in Vancouver now.

It’s day 12 of our press freedom trial against the RCMP.

β€œIf anyone needs proof of how essential it is that police actions be documented, we are seeing it in Minnesota,” writes @marshalederman.bsky.social for The Globe and Mail.
