The best stat is Canadian median wealth is over $30,000 HIGHER. That's in USD too.
US GDP per capita is 30% higher, but it doesn't trickle down to regular folks like you and me.

Rob Reiner was a true patriot, a champion of democracy who understood the risks we face and strove to ensure that future generations of Americans would live in a free country. May his memory be a blessing.

What a fucking gut punch it is to hear about Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele. The man made the gold standard of damn near every genre he approached. Coming of age movies all try to measure up to Stand By Me, mockumentaries to Spinal Tap, rom-coms to When Harry Met Sally.

This is cringe tankie politics that makes no reference to Russia's repeated invasions of neighbouring countries, but rather echoes Russian propaganda lines. Deeply unserious.
The moderate left needs to challenge this kind of nonsense. NATO is a diminished alliance that is finding its feet at a critical moment – pushing back against an actual imperialist power.

I spoke again with Gideon Sa'ar to recall our understanding on aid flow and made clear that IDF must stop killing people at distribution points.
All options remain on the table if Israel doesn’t deliver on its pledges.

An artist who first accused Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell of sexual assault almost three decades ago has told the New York Times that she had urged law enforcement back then to investigate powerful people in their orbit – including Donald Trump.
The artist, Maria Farmer, was among the first women to report Epstein and his partner Maxwell of sexual crimes back in 1996 when, according to a new interview with the Times, she also identified Trump among others close to Epstein as worthy of attention. Continue reading...
