Happy May Day! The history of International Workers’ Day dates back to the late 1800s when workers held general strikes & won the 8hr work day. More than 150 years later, workers are still fighting for dignity & respect. #CanLab
"In 2024, only 16% of Quebec francophones aged 18 to 34 identified as mainly sovereigntist. This proportion is lower than those for older generations today and lower for this same age group two decades ago. Millennial and GenZ Quebecers are less sovereigntist than their GenX or…

Mr. Netanyahu, antisemitism is a vile and disgusting form of bigotry that has done unspeakable harm to millions. Do not insult the intelligence of the American people by attempting to distract us from the immoral and illegal war policies of your extremist and racist government.
What everyone younger than Gen X doesn't know is how deeply bored we were a lot of the time, even at things like this. Every Gen Xer has read at least 1000 cereal boxes and shampoo bottle labels beginning to end out of boredom. And that is literally not an exaggeration.

For decades, social science has 'known' that women are more religious than men. However, if you track the religiosity of young adults - something really interesting happened. Women are more likely to claim no religious affiliation than men. It started around 2016.

CCA says the average cost of owning a vehicle is more than $10,000 per year. The average purchase price of a new vehicle is more than $50,000. Yet when you advocate for people who walk and bike (and this case own small business) you are the ‘elitist’. I like visionary though!
This encapsulates the attitude of the urban visionary elitists: - - Pedestrians not getting their noses out of their phone as they cross lanes and intersections is “victim blaming” -The complications of a fire station a block from a proposed pedestrian criss-cross is “nonsense”
What's cool about looking back at the history of college protests is that 19 year old students have been right about every single American war, and the esteemed Harvard educated opinion writers at the New York Times have been wrong about every single American war.
No big deal, the cops just nearly beat a history professor to death at WUSTL today.

If any kid is hurt tonight, responsibility will fall on the mayor and univ presidents. Other leaders and schools have found a safe, de-escalatory path. This is the opposite of leadership and endangers public safety. A nightmare in the making. I urge the Mayor to reverse course.

“Fuck the rule of law” as a policy is a bold and dangerous choice. This is not how the Charter works, popular opinion (and not even the notwithstanding clause) makes a law constitutional.
