This guy, Josh Johnson, is funny af. He’s been on the #DailyShow this season, and is gonna host it next week. Here’s a 45 min clip of him doing a gig in #Canada on why Canada won’t be the 51st state. Spoiler: Canada’s favorite sport is hockey. Also, a guy in Florida robbing a liquor store, with an alligator. I’m gonna be spending the next few days watching all his clips. #Recommend. https://youtu.be/5TSmBUl0sPY?si=1WjkkEJQgGBdzkAB

This went on for over 100 years and most people do not even know the details of residential schools.

Superman's Canadian Roots

Superman, the iconic superhero, has Canadian origins! Co-creator Joe Shuster was born in Toronto and based Metropolis partly on Toronto and the Daily Planet newspaper on the Toronto Daily Star where he worked as a paperboy. These Canadian connections influenced many visual elements of the Superman comics when they first appeared in 1938. 🦸‍♂️

Canadarm: Canada’s Robotic Arm in Space! 🇨🇦

The Canadarm, a series of ingenious robotic arms, was vital for the Space Shuttle program. It deployed satellites, maneuvered payloads, and even captured damaged spacecraft. A symbol of Canadian innovation and engineering excellence reaching for the stars! ✨#CanadianInnovation 🇨🇦 #Canada

The head of PM #Carney's new housing agency is former #Toronto Deputy Mayor and failed mayoral candidate Ana Bailao.

Bailao also did a stint for one of Toronto's larger slumlords the target of rent strikes by the York South Weston Tenants Union.

Affordable housing? Nah. A grift for developers? Absolutely.

#Canada #CanadianPolitics #cdnpoli #housing

= YSW Tenant Union @YSWienants - 6h
This says it all about Carney's "Build Canada Homes" agency. Bailao's
bosses are the big developers/landlords, the ones who evict the most
tenants, the ones who use Al to inflate rents, and the ones going after any
public land they can get their hands on

YSW Tenant Union @YSWienants -
It's no surprise. Developers are desperate for land & deregulation. That's
why @CMHC ca (shilling for developers) publishes a report on rent controls,
claiming that rent control could lead to more crime & lazy tenants.

The shadow war on libraries.

“investigation by The Fifth Estate has found there is a shadow war in Canada against libraries and books. Its leading political actors, from small towns to large political parties, are linked to a broader grassroots movement. Steeped in conspiracy theories, this movement has stoked fears about gender identity education, child abuse and teachers.”
