  I, a Canadian, would like to hear from some scientists about what is likely to happen when a forest fire reaches an oil pipeline. @thenarwhal@mstdn.ca

  Awwwww yeah, my postcards and stickers have arrived. Artwork by @deborahh@cosocial.ca, used with permission. Who should I write to first? I'm thinking maybe the environment minister. #ThisIsNotFine

  The same printer has three different aliases on the same computer. When the printer just had one alias, it refused to take instruction from the computer. But now I send one document to print at all three different aliases at once, and then the printer races with itself to comply.

  I couldn’t be the captain of the enterprise because every time someone did something cool I’d say “right the fuck on.”

  RE: https://mastodon.social/@TheBreach/116777031929770705 I found this interview frustrating. The government is clearly determined to use its weight to trample workers' rights and the unions are like "it's okay, we'll just democratically discourse until they change their mind." USE YOUR WEIGHT.

  "Despite meeting multiple times each month since September, the union says the main sticking point with the airline is the approximately 35 hours of unpaid work it says flight attendants are required to perform each month. According to CUPE, many flight attendants in Canada are generally not paid their regular hourly wages during boarding, pre-flight safety checks and other delays." https://www.ctvnews.ca/business/article/westjet-flight-attendants-escalate-contract-dispute/

  RE: https://fosstodon.org/@shawnhooper/116953435299354556 Idea for federal public servants, while you're breathing on each other on public transit and being held hostage and advertised at downtown: Start talking to each other about *at least talking to your unions about* non-compliance. Your time has value. Take it back.

  RE: https://ottawa.place/@Cassandra/116907184953118397 This is an example of a thing people in Canada could send postcards to parliamentarians about. A far cry from the outdoor paradise portrayed in tourism ads. #ThisIsNotFine

  23 and rainy > 32 and sunny, so I went for a walk. Learned that some Bank of Canada people have been on strike for 17 days, and the employer brought in scabs, and the CIRB said "no, you have to get rid of the scabs," and that's expected to happen in the next couple of days. Also apparently the people on strike have been allowed to work from home. The person I spoke to seemed annoyed about this because it meant fewer Canadians were aware of their action. But I wondered if this...

  Fry some onions, and some garlic, and maybe some mushrooms or zucchini, in a large skillet. Dump in some diced tomatoes and some beans and some taco seasoning and stir and simmer for a while. Done!

  In case of interest, a Parliamentary committee is hearing extra witnesses from 3:30 - 5:30 today on Bill C-22 ("lawful access"), because privacy advocates and tech companies and regular Canadians made such a stink about what the majority Liberals planned to do. Witnesses include the Canadian Bar Association and Signal. #CanPoli #FediLaw https://www.ourcommons.ca/DocumentViewer/en/45-1/SECU/meeting-40/notice

  “Federal figures suggest only 26 per cent of Canadian adults were vaccinated for COVID in 2024…” Maybe because governments pushed so hard on the narrative that the threat was over? https://www.cbc.ca/news/health/hospital-rates-vaccine-illnesses-9.7165119

  People are racist and transphobic at the NDP, the NDP calls them out for it, the Speaker of the Manitoba legislature bans words including “racist” and “transphobe.” https://www.brandonsun.com/local/2026/05/05/speaker-bans-five-unparliamentary-words-strikes-blow-for-decorum-in-manitoba-house
