Three horrible links make a post
Today, some of the many things that outraged me:
Venezuela had a coup, which is not too surprising given how things were heading there. Now, Maduro is an asshat, to be sure, but he is an elected asshat (albeit in sketchy circumstances, but no sketchier than the US electoral college). What is shameful here is that Canada is among the countries following America's lead and recognizing the un-elected opposition over the elected government. Sure, it's not going to actually change facts on the ground because it's not like we could have stopped the US doing a coup in Latin America—that's kind of what they do—but you don't need to encourage that sort of behaviour.
After a stacked vote that nevertheless narrowly affirmed Pride's ban on paid, uniformed cops marching in the parade, confirmed heterosexual John Tory decided to opine anyway. Why the straightest walking sweater vest to ever exclusively be attracted to women gets to speak publicly about who marches in Pride is probably a question best left to Pride sponsor TD Bank, I guess.
Finally, closer to home, our loathsome regime, having destroyed student unions in a test case to see if they could ban unions altogether, is now talking about eliminating the already ridiculously high class caps on kindergarten and primary school classes. Small people can be stacked horizontally to fit more of them in a room.
