The Canadian parliament has so many stupid rules that stymie its effectiveness..
and that an unscrupulous opposition can easily take advantage of.

Do you remember why you left #X / #Twitter? 1/2
I remember first learning about mastodon and other federated media from other people's tweets announcing their #twittermigration. That's why I'm here now, it's a better model, and I want to be part of the early days of a better web.
But now I think back, I can't remember which of #elonmusk 's actions were the last straw for me.. maybe his treatment of his employees? What about you?

FYI: Stay away from Breaking The Chains. They are a scam operation with no vet experience in treating animals, and they steal funds.
The Sulala Animal Rescue in Gaza stopped dealing with them, mid-Genocide, as they are stealing funds and not helping with any expenses.
Sulala has been operating in Gaza for over 20 years.
Stay away from UK-soldier run Breaking The Chains.

A screenshot of a social media post with text that criticizes a charity organization for their actions. The text says that the charity, BTC, has not donated money to the organizations it claims to be helping in Ukraine and Serbia. It also mentions the organization's involvement in Gaza. The post concludes by expressing sadness for the animals of Gaza and the people who donate to BTC, who may be unaware of the organization's real activities.

A good man
Sérgio lives on the edge of Brazil’s Atlantic Forest – a crucial but often overlooked ecosystem compared to the Amazon. Like much of the land in Brazil, Sérgio’s property had once been cleared of trees to make space for cattle grazing. Realizing that he can make a difference, Sérgio decided to restore the forest in his own backyard.
Fast forward 10 years and Sérgio has planted more than 11,000 trees.
Thanks to the Ecosia community and our local partner, Instituto Espinaço, he hasn’t only restored his own land, but also brought life back to a small piece of Brazil’s forgotten forest.

Open letter from Elizabeth May (leader of the Green Party of Canada)
"As the leader of the Green Party of Canada, I feel myself first and foremost to be a servant leader, to the Greens, as an employee of my constituents, and - hoping not to sound too goody-two shoes about it! - to the people of Canada. In that role I have probably never felt the need to put Canada first, and my party second, as I have had since the issue of foreign interference started to dominate the headlines...Now we are immersed in an even more shocking series of revelations that a foreign government has actually murdered Canadians on Canadian soil."
