As some Canadians organize "No Kings" rallies in solidarity with their American friends, perhaps it is time to organize something at home, where King Carney continues his domestic and global blitz of authoritarian policy imposition, never missing an opportunity to avoid consultation and accountability.

‘With all hope, New Mexico won’t long hold the distinction of being the nation’s only jurisdiction offering early childhood education for all.’,

Oct. 13, 2025

The state is setting a powerful example with its first-in-the-nation plan. But the policy has support across the US

For four years, New Mexico has been on a distressing losing streak. The state has consistently ranked last in the nation for child wellbeing, as determined by factors including household income, educational outcomes, and child mortality. And over the past decade, whenever New Mexico hasn’t placed 50th, it’s been 49th.

There will be no peace in Gaza. Only the temporary absence of war.

There is no shortage of failed peace plans in occupied Palestine, all of them incorporating detailed phases and timelines, going back to the presidency of Jimmy Carter. They end the same way. Israel gets what it wants initially — in the latest case the release of the remaining Israeli hostages — while it ignores and violates every other phase until it resumes its attacks on the Palestinian people.

While global renewable electricity installations will grow at a slightly slower pace than modellers previously expected between 2025 and 2030, total capacity is still on track to double by decade’s end, with solar leading the way, the International Energy Agency says.

Ultra-Leftism Won’t Help Free Palestine

Interview with Bashir Abu-Manneh & Hoda Mitwally on how US activists can more effectively support Palestinians. Two years after Oct 7, public outrage against Israel is widespread, yet grassroots solidarity nowhere near as powerful as it needs to be.

While Trump’s ceasefire plan might provide relief from Israel’s genocidal onslaught, Gaza has been decimated, and the proposed deal would codify a vastly deteriorated situation for millions of Palestinians.

Over 90 per cent of Canadians agree that trade is important to the economy. Yet less than half can accurately identify how much our gross domestic product actually depends on it, according to an Ipsos poll. That knowledge gap doesn’t mean Canadians are uninformed; it shows how technical and complex trade really is. And complexity is fertile ground for distortion.
