I’m an American-Canadian who believes in the preservation of democracy. I’m looking to connect with voices of reason to help me sort through the mess and make decisions about action I can take. Voting matters to me.

Associate Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson will end up being one of the heroes of this era if ever there are historians in the future who write about the fall of the United States
She will almost never be in the majority on a major ruling, but she will have been the conscience of America

Mark Carney: We will never roll back rights and freedoms. We will protect a woman’s right to choose what she does with her own body. We will protect LGTBQ+A rights and will never use the notwithstanding clause to limit rights.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

Reminder that removing GST on a good that we both export and import, that is unreasonably tariffed in the United States is effectively getting a subsidy from ALL Canadian taxpayers for your personal car purchase.
Worse, it makes good on Trump's promise to "make other countries" pay.

Senator Sanders cuts right to the heart of the cruelty of these decisions.
Trump and Musk are going after Social Security, Medicaid, the VA, and public education.
In what universe, in what world, in what religion is it morally acceptable to cut programs for hungry children in order to reward the wealthy?

Voted today in Ontario. When we told them that we haven't received voter cards yet, they said that very few had. ID was quickly verified and we voted no problem. Don't fret if you haven't received your card in the mail.
