They should be on Mastodon, but that transition seems quite unlikely this election cycle.

Aslo wanted to note, the federal NDP is on BlueSky, although they aren't as active as they should be. There's some provincial accounts too, although that varies from province to province.

Here's a few of their handles for those looking:

I admit, I had to look up Liz White. I'm not sure why you bothered to include someone who manages less than 250 votes while ignoring the dozen other party leaders with similarly limited support.

She has an interesting perspective but, like other micro-parties, the Animal Protection Party is not likely to meaningfully contribute to a minority government (even with proportional representation)

This seems a little far out there, but if they move ahead with it hopefully they'll lay down an internet trunk line too. Right now, the vast majority of Canada's internet traffic runs through a trunk line via the US.

I also wonder if it might be more feasible to explore developing some sort of battery-tanker that can just be pilotted across, plugged in, and the pilotted back for recharge...

It's worse than you think.

The author criticizes national-level projects by proposing projects that are entirely handled provincially (or even municipally, specifically in Toronto & Ontario). Yes, this is TVO, which is Ontario-specific, but confusing the responsibilities and capabilities of two different levels of government is not beneficial.

This shouldn't be an either-or situation, but more of let the nation focus on one, and the province on the other. That said, bolstering the judicial system and adding some doors isn't really going to do much for the economy...

Do you happen to have any links/info? I figured there were others in the works, but I have no clue where.

So, from my understanding, the bill dies, but the petition persists. Thanks for clearing that up!

Once the election is officially called on Sunday, will the bill be considered dead and have to be reintroduced in the next parliament? In effect, don't petitions also die when the bill associated with them dies?

It may as well be delayed until the bill is re-introduced with the next government, as it may not even be re-tabled in the House with its current deficiencies.

This is true (about an hour before any official policy was released), which means it was published as a half-informed leak instead of news of actual policy. However, claiming an (inaccurate) leak as released policy remains misleading.

Like most USian news sources, the article is misleading. Ford said he will add a 25% export tax on electricity IF tariffs persist. He did not provide a timeline on exactly when he might do it. He referred to this as "keeping the powder dry"

Definitely a big day. With the launch of NSL this year, hopefully we'll continue to have a selection of great players to keep all our women's teams near the top of the rankings for years to come. Definitely looking forward to the next WWC.

Just a quick note that one (1) current CPL player is on the list:

Jimoh, Shola // York United FC ​

This one is behind a paywall, but it is easily bypassed at https://12ft.io/

Moncton would be fun, and is likely the only other option in the Atlantic. Newfoundland could perhaps manage something in St. John's, but travel is always a big issue.

I think we'll see more of a Halifax - Moncton rivalry materialize in League1 Atlantic, with an eventual upgrade to bring the rivalry to the top tier once a club has more solid footing.

The real shame is the continued absence of any side in Quebec. Montreal and Quebec City are necessary additions to the league, and the fact that they aren't top-2 for 2026 remains concerning.

This sounds cool, but it doesn't look like it's intended to ever go to market.

Maybe there will be a pivot with the current political situation state-side, but that doesn't seem to be the purpose of this project.

Still, a project worth rooting for! I just signed up to receive updates straight from their website: https://projectarrow.ca/

;)

Are we just going to copy/paste the rules from Reddit, or are we devising a different way to launch the Model Parliament?

If I see any, I'll be sure to let you know!

[email protected] is actually the 2nd or 3rd oldest city-based community on lemmy.ca . It's not very active, but should definitely be added to this list.

Also, [email protected] would be a good community to add to the soccer category.

For team-specific Canadian-based soccer teams, there's [email protected] of the MLS (US-league with 3 Canadian-based teams). Other MLS sides include Vancouver Whitecaps and CF Montreal, which I don't think have a community created.

None of the 8 Canadian Premier League teams, nor any of the numerous League1 Canada sides have taken steps to establish their communities yet (as far as I know).

Peertube is the Fediverse equivalent. It needs more content, and more instances to host said content, but it's a good start.
