American owned paper in Canada presents us the "spokesman" to break up our country.
Tadda: he's a former US marine.
They can't even find a real Canadian to be MAGA's quisling puppet.
Piss off back to the States dude and take your marine oath of loyalty with you.

I don't normally have much time for floor crossers but I have a lot of respect for MP Chris d'Entremont. He was one of the few non-toxic members of Poilievre's Conservatives.
He was by far the best speaker in last session's toxic parliament.
Good for you Chris.

Yup. It’s about to be November and we’re in Canada. Especially because we won’t be snowbirding this winter! Or any time soon. F*** that orange turd.
The frost is heavy in the morning. We are going into the dark season of winter.
Need to get the snow tires on and pick up the tools in the yard. The wood stove is on.
Getting ready to hunker down.
