1/ Canadians are getting clobbered by the cost of living, turbo-charged by food and fuel hikes thanks to the horrible, illegal US/Israeli war on Iran. Meanwhile Big Oil is laughing its way to the Big Banks – with $90 billion in wartime profiteering expected this year alone.

I offer my sincere condolences to the loved ones of TPS Constable Marc Pinizzotto and OPP Constable Tarun Bali. I'm thinking of their families, colleagues and communities who are in mourning today.

✊🏻 NO JETS T.O.! Federal New Democrats stand with the Ontario NDP and the people of Toronto against Doug Ford’s destructive Billy Bishop scheme. The Prime Minister has the power to shut this down once and for all. Protect Toronto’s waterfront, reject Ford’s Wall Street giveaway!

The cost of living is already out of control. Corporations don’t need another way to rip off Canadians at the checkout. The federal government needs to do the right thing and ban surveillance pricing before it drives up prices even more.

1/ Les libéraux ont finalement reconnu les dangers de la tarification de surveillance, après que le NPD ait tiré la sonnette d'alarme concernant l'utilisation par les entreprises des renseignements personnels pour vous facturer plus cher. Mais ils refusent toujours de s'engager à l'interdire.

@votetanille.bsky.social has been making this point with great passion and clarity for years. The first nation building should be First Nation building!

When the system is rigged for the rich while the 99% struggle to afford the basics, public ownership is how we take back the economy.

BREAKING: As people in Canada struggle with gas prices & the cost of living, 60+ unions, civil society orgs, Indigenous & faith groups have signed an open letter to PM @mark-carney.bsky.social calling for an excess profits tax on oil & gas companies. Read it here: 350.org/ept/ #cdnpoli #taxbigoil

2/ Tax the excess profits. Use the money to ease the everyday emergency of just trying to get by. We're calling on PM Carney to act. It's simple: do the right thing.
