ok. There is no reason for anyone to know this (unless you figured out I have an #EvilDead feed on bluesky) But I am a huge #BruceCampbell fan. He is iconic for those of us who love horror comedy, and B-movies. So saddened to hear this news.

ISC data shows Jordan's Principle will face a $90M funding gap Last week’s $1.55B Jordan’s Principle funding announcement falls tens of millions short of previous demand, ISC data show.

Internal records show Ottawa’s funding plan for Jordan’s Principle falls short of the program’s recent needs by tens of millions of dollars.
Denials doubled under Jordan’s Principle in 2024-25, while approved services also declined by millions #indigenous #cdnpoli #https://www.aptnnews.ca?p=284501

A ‘Tiny Minority’ of Social Media Accounts Drive Canadian Conspiracy Content | The Tyee Researchers found conspiracy claims spread widely, but only some people believe them.

Yet another reason to avoid that other social media platform. This is @jenstden.bsky.social @thetyee.ca

Across all the platforms the researchers analyzed, X hosted the highest volume of conspiracy claims and had 70 per cent of engagement in the form of “likes.” #cdnmedia

It's not the first. The first out of the gates was by Lauren Southern and Keane Bexte was kind of a guest star. That was published days after the announcement on Kamloops. There is also a book, and weirdly, an institute for ... I guess you could call it, and an anti-TRC institute?

Child Welfare: Government reform verses First Nations control Chiefs have pitched a child welfare reform plan that divests control from government and gives power to new First Nations led institutions.

Two competing plans on child welfare: Government reform vs First Nations control. The Canadian Human Rights Tribunal says it’ll end discrimination in the system; they must choose the chief plan, the government plan, or find some path in between. www.aptnnews.ca/nation-to-na... #cdnpoli #indigenous

Davos live: Trump rules out taking Greenland by force but calls for ‘immediate negotiations’ Rolling coverage of the World Economic Forum in Davos, where the US president delivered a speech to world leaders

#Trump on #Greenland It will allow the US to “create a power that will make it impossible for the bad guys to do anything against the perceived good ones.”

That's a laugh. The US can't even distinguish good guys from bad guys within their own borders
So, like, no.
