That book was mostly about how the Québécois should work with black folk and other colonized people with solidarity and poo poo. The author really really regrets the name now.

Singh and the NDP are going to put forward a motion in the House today calling for a ceasefire and recognition of a Palestinian state. So expect a bunch of people to show their whole rear end this afternoon across news and social media.

Yeah I mean she's a cop so who cares. She did make the only actual good decision that day when she blocked the bridges over the Shubenacadie River so gold star for that incredibly obvious move. Also lol the carbine officers, like that one pair of Mounties that spent the day of the massacre shooting up an emergency evacuation centre and then almost opening fire on some Halifax city cops And none of the actual day of decisions matter anywhere near as much as the fact that the Mounties knew Whorton, knew he liked beating women and owned 1000 guns, knew he was obsessed with cops. It's a joke, a smokescreen to cover for the horrendous incompetency and apathy of the Mounties that allowed Portapique to happen. And nobody has learned anything lol, nobody cares about the recommendations in the big report (reform is a scam anyway but you';d expect libs to care), the only result has been charging a victim with aiding the massacre and cops from coast to coast getting bigger budgets and more guns. HGell yeah

Mayor of Vaughan Steven Del Duca considers bylaw that prohibits protests within 100 metres of places of worship. Couldn't imagine what this is about, no sir.

Femtosecond posted:It's pretty amazing that we had a Big Change election that got those guys a full majority and they immediately just shifted into neutral and are utterly maintaining the status quo and doing nothing. They're still in the early term when they should be spending political capital on things they want to do, but yea apparent that they don't actually have any ideological goals and so they're already in the mode of doing irrelevant vanity projects like adding a big Vancouver sign for tourists and trialing a scooter share program. The mayor also chugged a beer once

Empty void of a person is right Wortman was a police informant and they didn't want to reveal this for some reason, or even warn people about exactly what was going on, so they let all those people die instead. Your life is worth less than some very minor state secret. Good to remember!

he's right though. politics is the means through which we actually affect public policy. protesting can apply pressure but any real gains have to be achieved by capturing direct political power and wielding it. protesting is just another filter we've added to democratic governing that dilutes class tensions. this is actually easier to achieve in canada than in most places because of our fptp system means you only need ~35% of the popular vote to have a majority which lets you do whatever you want for four-five years.

DJJIB-DJDCT posted:I believe there's a Heritage Minute about that one. yeah, look at this quote. "Asked in 2006 about the protest he led on that snowy Saturday in January 1946, Bob McEwen reflected, “I think you’d be slapped in jail pretty quick if you did that today.” Crazy. I was talking to some old british dude when i was lifeguarding once and he told me some story of him getting arrested at a protest and the one cop just let him go because he kind of believed in what they were protesting, and that he didn't think that would happen these days. Although i did get stopped at a austerity protest whilst wearing a mask (it's pretty funny to me that you could be arrested for wearing a mask in a crowd and then covid happened) and i attempted to appeal to the fact that the police themselves were wearing their own pants as a protest against austerity themselves and he just sent me home, so maybe i'm just lucky.
