No matter where we live or what language we speak, we’re in the same boat: trying to get by in an impossible economy.
Quebecers are hungry for progressive solutions: bold, clear, and based on solidarity.

The Ontario NDP, Greens, and Liberals should be promising a full investigation of Ford and his lackeys (the Ontario PC party) and not ruling out the possibility of criminal charges.

Cringe as they may be, don’t assume Canada’s radical far right is going to fail, warns high-profile social media commentator
Available now to teachers everywhere and developed in Ontario Canada.
A Fair Vote? Rights, Responsibilities, and Decision-Making in a Democracy is an exciting new resource for Grade 5 Social Studies teachers, which was developed by the Elementary Teachers of Toronto and Fair Vote Canada.
This resource supports Strand B of the Social Studies curriculum on the Role of Government and Responsible Citizenship. The curriculum resource invites students to consider alternatives to our First-Past-the-Post voting system. Consisting of three lessons with accompanying slideshows, it concludes with students holding a mock Citizens' Assembly to determine what changes could be made to our voting system.

Doug Ford and Mark Carney are making big moves on housing — but tenant groups and housing experts are raising an alarm.
Economist Ricardo Tranjan joins Desmond Cole to discuss how the emerging policy heavily favours corporate landlords.

Despite promising a “generational” and “transformational” budget, Prime Minister Mark Carney is doubling down on resource extraction, militarism, and corporate handouts—appeasing Donald Trump and Canada’s corporate class, but doing little for working people.

We are working towards making Clean Air, indoors and out, a shovel-ready project. Please take a look at the previous posting and send your email to the NRC and Codes Canada team, and explain why you think ASHRAE 421 should be included as part of the Canadian Building Code. The last meeting is on Nov 12, 2025, but if you can't get it in before, send it anyway. There is a letter template with addresses in a recent Heliox episode "The Air We Share" on Substack.
One way or another, Pierre Poilievre’s leadership of the Conservative Party of Canada is over.
What happens next will be critical for the party going forward.
Given the current electoral system, a reorientation to the mainstream - the moderate middle - of Canadian political society is critical to its success.
As people go hungry and desperate, and anger grows towards both American political parties, how soon (days?) will it take for people getting out on the streets?
When they do, civil unrest will be inevitable. Trump and his minions will call upon the military. The military will respond, either supporting the #TrumpRegime or #TheConstitutionofTheUnitedStates. In either case, the #ReserveCurrency Status will collapse and the #TreasuryBond tanks; Debts come due.
Hopefully, I am wrong, and there is still time - mostly because I do not think #Canadians and #MarkCarney's Liberals are ready for #America's chaotic collapse.

#DougFord was given literally BILLIONS of Federal dollars during the early days of the #COVID19 pandemic (Spoiler Alert, we're still in it )
He spent almost NONE of it on Health Care.
He should be impeached and jailed for that alone.

Your view is similar to that of the #GuardTheLeaf person on YouTube, who also thinks that this is not going to immediately return to the status quo ante when #DonaldJTrump and #PresidentVance are gone.

The U.K. has a similar problem with #Brexit. It lost a lot of goodwill and trust with other countries, and that isn't going to be coming back for years.
