MISINFORMATION ALERT: CBC
Regrettably, CBC has been regurgitating Air Canada's press release. This is inaccurate.
1) Under the APPR, AC must rebook passengers on competitor airlines if it cannot rebook them on their own.
2) The Carriage by Air Act provides more protection.

@seanorr well done shifting the conversation to a class analysis and humanizing the people of the downtown eastside. too often we're focused on the "impact on business" and property values instead of the intense human cost of poverty

NEW: Spotify CEO Daniel Ek is worth almost $10 billion, and his co-founder Martin Lorentzon has a net worth of $15 billion.
Artists report making, on average, only $0.003 to $0.005 per stream on the platform.
Streaming has reshaped the music industry—at the expense of artists.

BREAKING: Warren Buffett moments ago at the 2025 Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholder meeting just came out against Trump's Tariffs in a major way:
"There is no question that trade can be an act of war. It has led to bad things — the attitudes that it has brought out. In the United States, we should be looking to trade with the rest of the world. And we should do what we do best and they should do what they do best. That’s what we did originally. We were good at producing tobacco and cotton 250 years ago and we traded it. We want a prosperous world but eight countries with nuclear weapons, including a few that I would call quite unstable, I do not think it’s a great idea where a few countries say ‘hahaha we won,” and other countries are envious."

Danielle Smith has one card to play: picking fights for the sake of fighting. If she doesn’t make an enemy out of the federal government, she’s left with no one to blame but herself.
Albertans are proud to be Canadians. We know better than to play games when our nation’s sovereignty is threatened.

We combed through the records and found that Poilievre has voted against workers over 500 times. One throwaway line about workers doesn’t undo that record. It’s not a slip-up, it’s a strategy. Poilievre’s platform shows he’s determined to leave workers behind. #Elxn45

In 2012, at the World Economic Forum Stephen Harper cut our healthcare funding and raise the retirement age to 67 years, cutting off pensions to seniors. The Liberal Party reversed the damage of Poilievre and Harper. Let's not go there again. Vote #CarneyForPM #WEF

Now is a good time - as Canadians en mass are seeing the hateful tactics of far-right outlets like Rebel News and True North - to remind everyone that these are the *same* outlets leading the residential school denialism movement, platforming hate and monetizing misinformation.
