We spent months digging into Bliss and Wisdom, the Buddhist group buying up land in #PEI. Here's our story about money, deception and the fight over the island's future, with Jimmy Huang and @HoserLibrarian theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…

A gallon of baby formula cost $154 but cost $0.31 to make. A gallon of IV fluid cost $178 but cost $0.28 cents to make. A gallon of insulin cost $123,000 but cost $0.68 cents to make. I’m concerned with making these as affordable as #gas at $4.32 a gallon. #perspective

Russia has already been cut off from CNN, Pornhub and Facebook. The US is now working on depriving Russians of MacDonalds and CocaCola. If they keep going with these sanctions, Russians will soon be among the healthiest, well adjusted and best informed people on the planet.

Everything I know about the Ukraine’s strategic geo-political importance was learned playing RISK at the cottage. w/ @StuartHickox

It's only being arrested by gunpoint if you're being arrested by the gunpoint region of France. Otherwise its a sparkling shakedown.

Glad we’ve set the legal precedent for invoking the Emergencies Act against Indigenous land defenders resisting settler colonialism! Will I be punished for having donated to Unist’ot’en next time they blockade a railway? Who knows! Great job team, love that we’re cheering this on

Censorship is a weapon of the powerful, not of the marginalized. The marginalized are, by definition, always its targets. The core purpose of censorship is to shield majoritarian sentiments from being questioned or challenged. Only power centers have the capacity to censor.

Not even writing an entire book about how to mitigate covid can inoculate me from people on Twitter accusing me of wanting covid to run wild. People are funny.

Trust of MSM journalists seems to be at an all-time low, and the fact that media begged Trudeau for a bailout and now depend on bailout money to exist is a factor. Nothing is for free.

Protestor 1: All these honking trucks are pretty annoying, but is there a way we can up our game? Bagpipe guy: Hold my beer….

I deleted an earlier Tweet that referenced some commentary from protest leaders because friends pointed out the troublesome history of those quoted. Still @rupasubramanya has an interesting perspective on the rally that might allow for some nuance.

Covid is like the longest Netflix series in history where you only keep on watching because you think it will get better and eventually have a happy ending. But it never does. It just keeps on being shit and the plots become increasingly ridiculous.

You know one of the reasons why ICU beds are full throughout Canada? Austerity. In 1976, Canada had 6.93 hospital beds per 1000 people. In 2019, we have 2.52 per 1000 people... in 1995, beds dropped from 5.41 to 4.7, continuing on a RAPID decline from there.

Here's a graph you should be sick of seeing by now. It's been shared non-stop by media to show why we are where we are. ... .... It has been shared, right? This is something you've seen, right? This critical piece of the story is being referenced all the time ... right?

Nice basic income argument here... ”Reality is there are no magic bullets for our demographic challenge. But one component of any potential solution is to remove the punitive nature of EI that rewards lack of initiative over enterprise and initiative.”

Disappointing to find out shareholder information is becoming less transparent. Interesting thread.

No, bike lanes are not a “gift” to the 1% who cycle. Bike lanes are *actually* a gift to: - the local economy - the environment - vulnerable road users - the health system - the marginalized And the 99% who want to cycle but are scared it’s too dangerous to try
