The reason why we are in this pickle with Billy Bishop airport is because banker bros can see the airport from their office or condo windows. #nojets

✈️ Fun Fact: Airlines can’t do heavy plane overhauls at #BillyBishop. Island space constraints, noise bylaws & short runways make deep repairs impossible. Work flies out to Ottawa/Halifax. The Ford gov’s big expansion proposals ignore these physical limits—it's magical thinking.

Who's behind the massive lobbying campaign to expand the island airport? What I discovered should worry us all trib.al/3EPUcXX

73% of Edmontonians would vote against the referendum on a referendum, 58% in Calgary, with rural a split at 48%. Older rural men are the group most likely to vote in fabour of separation

I need answers

The "europoor" discourse migrating from terminally online Twitter to the WSJ op-ed is actually a big tell. When a narrative stops being a meme and becomes establishment messaging, it means the establishment needs it. You simply don't reach for "but Europe is poor!" unless your domestic numbers have become very hard to spin for the citizenry. Millennials and Gen Z have no memory of American prosperity - you can't revive the American dream, because they never lived it. And if they ever compare their median household situation to, say, Denmark or Belgium, the math is simply not mathing. Just go with the truth (for once!) and admit the U.S. has been run as an economic extraction zone for a narrow class of people, and the bill is now coming due. Pointing at Europeans won't make average Americans grocery bill or insurance premiums go lower.

Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) covers approximately 4,600 to 4,613 acres of land or the equivalent to nearly 12,500 hockey arenas. Billy Bishop Airport is on ten acres. Doug Ford really needs to step down so someone competent can do the Premier job.

This is like when a toddler demands blueberries, so you meal prep blueberries only for him to announces he hates blueberries. Except the toddler runs the world’s largest economy, and the blueberries are a close ally’s trading relationship.

And there you have it. Venezuela appoints Maduro’s VP/right hand man as acting President - because that is how their laws work. And so the Maduro regime lives on and the US achieved nothing via an illegal action. Great work everyone! 🙄

Lol you guys think Chevron is just going to walk in there tomorrow morning and put a straw in the ground and take Venezuela’s oil directly to Texas? And the guerrillas in the jungles of Venezuela are just going to sit there and play with their thumbs?

More examples of Trump's tariffs being a tax on American manufacturing - AND a subsidy for tariff exemption lobbying wsj.com/economy/trade/trump-… "Right now, the tariffs look like this is a negative for the robotics industry and manufacturing in general for the U.S."

That’s so weird. Catturd promised me back in April that this wouldn’t happen.

I'm not actually *that* pro-union I just really fucking hate Air Canada

Look I know the NDP wants to make hay over the Air Canada strike - but no one knows (least of all FAs) who Don Davies or Avi Lewis is other than some dipper dweebs.

It’s all so fucken depressing

Yeah, this is a highly unusual all-hands-on-deck meeting that wouldn’t be happening if Alaska was productive. 5 European leaders, the head of NATO and the head of the EU don’t just drop everything and fly to DC.

Far left and right chuds that I never see on my feed are coming out of the woodwork because of the Air Canada strike feeding on each other. Centrist me:

The Air Canada flight attendant strike wouldn’t be so serious and get everyone’s back up if we didn’t have monopolies. AC holds about a 45% market share - no American airline has anywhere close to that market share. A country of this size shouldn’t rely on one airline.
