This is the shit humanity has created, and the animals pay for with their lives.
Manitoba’s premier recently expropriated a care home that was set to shut down, even after exhaustive meetings to try and come to a deal.
I am so gd glad we’ve got Wab Kinew leading us. He’s got morals and recognizes that Manitobans need good leadership after the shitshow PC Brian Pallister created.
Continually whinging about a source instead of accepting the story has been reported in multiple sources makes me think you’re playing games.
I agree we’d feel some hurt. But we wouldn’t be starving to death.
For me it’s an easy choice.
Why kidnap JT? Carney is our PM now.
tRump wouldn’t be able to do a regime change here, and as far as sanctions go he’s already doing that.
The fuck we should be sitting around watching him do shitty things to a nation who has done sfa to him. Bullies need to be brought to their knees, not coddled like a small child.
We should be screaming from the rooftops about our gov’ts lack of action here. At the very least we should be sending a few Hercs down to Cuba laden with food, water and fuel … and not saying one fucking word about it to the orange scumbag.
If you’ve never seen a laser shoot an aircraft out of the sky, the experience can be unsettling. The weapon fits comfortably into the trunk of a car. It makes no noise and emits no light, not even the glowing red beam that’s so familiar from the movies. When a team of Ukrainian soldiers and engineers took me to see their prototype the other day, it seemed easy to use. Almost too easy.
The operator set up the laser cannon on the roof of his pickup truck in the middle of an empty field. It resembles a hobbyist’s telescope with some cameras affixed to the sides. For target practice, one of the engineers launched a small drone, and it flew a few hundred yards away from us, hovering in the gauzy winter sky. The laser swiveled as its cameras followed the target. The operator shouted, “Fire!” Within seconds, the drone began to burn as if struck by invisible lightning, then fell to the ground in a fiery arc.
The Ukrainian model, known as the Sunray, is not the world’s first laser weapon system. The U.S. Navy has one called Helios, which Lockheed Martin developed as part of a $150 million contract signed in 2018. Four years later, the first Helios laser was installed on a U.S. destroyer to defend against enemy drones. The creators of the Sunray, whose existence has not been previously reported, told me they built their laser in about two years for a few million dollars, and they expect to sell it for a few hundred thousand dollars.
O.O
Holy shit! Ukraine has been kicking ass and taking no prisoners with their wartime weapons’ development.
A review of 52 deaths in ICE custody by independent medical experts for a 2024 study found that 95 per cent of cases could have been prevented if the detainees had received appropriate medical care.
“Medical and mental health care in immigration detention facilities was failing people – especially the most medically vulnerable – even before the Trump administration,” said Eunice Cho, senior counsel at the American Civil Liberties Union and one of the report’s authors.
“Under this administration, things have gotten markedly worse.”
First Nations people have been on this land for 25,000 years.
When they tell you who they are, believe them.

it was really fucking weird and kinda unnerving as to how much they know.
The original info-sharing deal - called Beyond the Border Action Plan - began with Obama and Harper in 2011 and included actions like Addressing Threats Early and Cross-Border Law Enforcement.
The CBC has written extensively on its implementation.

How long was it?
It was the earliest source available that showed Musk’s actions.
While I don’t support Musk, I did want to verify that he acted in good faith on this one thing.
Starlink units have supported Ukrainian forces throughout the invasion, but Russian forces have also captured many of the units as a result. Musk’s company had been working to block Russian forces from utilizing the captured devices, and Ukrainian officials now say they are working to prevent Russian access long term.
Betcha Druggies rich buddies will be the ones who benefit the most from this ‘deal’.
