Alors que j'apprenais la nouvelle aujourd'hui ici en Colombie-Britannique, la fumée des feux de forêt obscurcit le ciel, nous pique les yeux et notre enfant se plaint d'un mal de gorge. Et nous sommes des chanceuses et chanceux. 🧵 ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle/227...

As I received this news today here in British Columbia, the wildfire smoke blankets the sky, our eyes are burning and our kid is complaining of a sore throat from it. And we’re the lucky ones. 🧵 www.cbc.ca/news/politic...
1/ More than 99% of CUPE cabin crew workers at WestJet voted in favour of a strike mandate. We've seen what Mark Carney does when workers legally exercise their rights. The Liberals have used Section 107 multiple times to stamp out worker power, forcing them back to work without a fair contract.
Don DaviesToday, my colleague @leahgazan.bsky.social and I wrote a letter calling on the Minister of Jobs, @pattyhajdu.bsky.social, to refrain from violating WestJet workers’ right to strike.
1/ This is the third time in six months that Benjamin Netanyahu has flown through Canadian airspace. Contrary to the GAC spokesperson’s claim, he does not have the freedom to make that decision. Foreign leaders are required to seek permission before doing so. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...
Today’s decision is the result of a massive effort from the Ontario NDP, organizers on the ground, and the people of Toronto who said: No Jets TO. It was collective power that made this issue impossible for the Carney government to ignore. When we organize, we win! shorturl.at/SDIBf
1/ Les personnes aux Canada méritent mieux que de se faire dire qu’il faut choisir entre la lutte contre les changements climatiques et une baisse du coût de la vie.
NPD1/ L'urgence climatique est à nos portes. Des villes sont étouffées par la fumée, des familles sont déplacées et des communautés entière partent en fumée Les Canadiennes et Canadiens méritent un plan qui s'attaque de front à la crise climatique. C'est la tout l'enjeu du Nouveau pacte vert.
Canadians deserve better than being told we must choose between climate action and affordability. The Green New Deal is a blueprint to tackle both: lower energy costs, reduced emissions and one million good-paying jobs across the country. Join us to learn more and how we can fight for it together.
NDP1/ The climate emergency is at our doorstep. Cities are choked in smoke, families are being displaced and entire communities are burning. Canadians deserve a plan that tackles the climate crisis head-on. That's what the Green New Deal is about.
