    &quot;#Canadian #mining and oil companies in #Ecuador are linked to serious #humanrightsviolations, including poisoning freshwater sources and trampling #Indigenousrights. Ecuadorian communities have spoken loudly and clearly: this free trade agreement will exacerbate existing concerns. 3Canada must listen and ensure rights are protected.&quot; https://miningwatch.ca/blog/2026/5/7/canadian-civil-society-leaders-say-no-canada-ecuador-free-trade-agreement

    &quot;It is remarkably rare that a news story about #climate impacts actually mentions #climatechange. Rarer still are the stories that pinpoint #fossilfuels as its primary cause.

    Young people are mad and so too is every #Canadian sweltering in the heat, fleeing their homes and communities due to floods or fires, overcome with wildfire smoke or rising waters, threatened or having been burned out by #wildfires, faced destruction by tornadoes, or any other #climate disaster.

    &quot;#Poverty in our wealthy society should not only be regarded as a monstrous #socialinjustice. It also poses a threat to all workers and should be challenged by the entire #labour movement. As #publicservices and the workers who deliver them come under attack and as employers look to impose the burden of the present trade crisis on workers and communities, we must understand poverty and #homelessness in this context.&quot; https://canadiandimension.com/articles/view/the-war-on-the-poor-is-es...

    &quot;the #datacentre boom is zeroing in on one province: #Alberta. The prairie province accounts for 93 per cent of all planned data centre capacity in #Canada, in large part because of its cheap natural gas-powered electricity. Plus, Alberta’s #UCP government has been courting the AI industry, offering corporate tax incentives to data centre builders and exempting them from otherwise routine #environmental impact assessments.&quot; https://breachmedia.ca/inside-the-rising-country-wide-movement...
