We've been hoping for a patriotic hamberder to do its thing since 2016.

This pattern of behaviour is why no country will consider any agreement with the USA to be trustworthy ever again.
The disaster was that the immigration policy wasn't matched with any meaningful policy to create more housing at an affordable price. Immigration is something Canada continues to need, but on housing politicians are torn between the demands of those who can't afford housing and the demands of the corporations that build and own property, plus (to a lesser extent, because the gains aren't real) homeowners who want their property to keep increasing in value. And as usual corporate interests tend to win out.
But maybe there could be corporate pressure for Canada to do something about housing, if it helps other (non-housing) corporations attract skilled workers from the USA and elsewhere.
Maybe because it's too unethical towards artists and pays vast sums of money to MAGA propagandist Joe Rogan.
Can we get this in a non-image format?
So there was a deal with Iran which Trump ripped up, and now he's threatening Iran with war if they don't make a deal with him like the one he ripped up?
The Trump administration has been trying to brand anti-Tesla protests that damage cars as "radical left Terrorism."
It could actually be a good thing, since it opens up the possibility of unsnoopable channels of communication, using encryption that would be disrupted by any attempt to intercept it.
Canadian mining companies are some of the most ruthless, oppressive and damaging organizations in the world. It's not surprising that they're entirely willing to work with the fascists.
It's good to see an effort to keep track of this. It would be great to have something like this for all the people kidnapped by ICE, not just the academics. But that would be a huge project, and many have probably been snatched and whisked away without the case becoming public at all. Is there a database behind this that people could contribute to if they know someone who has been abducted by the government?
Also, I wonder whether just listing the stated reason gives too much credence to it. They're all labelled terrorist sympathizers, and it's usually a lie or a very spun way of saying "they objected to Israel's genocide of Palestinians." Maybe the format could be updated with a link to some more balanced information about each case - a media article or a wiki page?
Still, it's significant that only 32% of Republicans support Trump's genocidal policy.
I'm not sure there has been a single documented case of a trans person causing trouble in a restroom. Assholes, by contrast, cause plenty of trouble.
