Kory Teneycke is going after Poilievre. 🍿

And:

"Multiple Conservative sources describe a shambolic central campaign with an isolated leader."

This is a scathing article. ⬇️

Captured this view of last week’s lunar eclipse. No post-processing or filters—this is literally how it looked coming out of the telescope.

Strikes me how many in this story are biologists or forestry workers. You won't find a more dedicated group in the public service. These are literally dream jobs we have trained decades for.

Canadians are the biggest group of foreign nationals who travel to the United States. Trump's hateful comments and his tariffs are likely to destroy America's tourism appeal to Canadians, costing billions of dollars www.npr.org/2025/03/06/n...
As Canadians cancel trips due to Trump, the U.S. tourism industry could lose billions
The Trump administration's attacks on its northern neighbor have been met with confusion and anger by some Canadians who are now cancelling their trips to the U.S. in protest.

Worse than tariffs, that’s a laugh.
It’s worth remarking that Ontario is able to do this because its liquor distribution and retailing agencies are government owned allowing them to act in the public interest. Public ownership is vital. www.bbc.com/news/article... #onpoli #cdnpoli
Jack Daniel's maker says Canada taking bottles off shelves 'worse than tariffs'
Some Canadian provinces have removed US-made alcohol from shelves in response to US tariffs.

Trump will not make America great again (whatever that means) and will instead fail spectacularly, delivering harmful policies while focusing on distractions. Sadly, these failures will be acknowledged, with Trump inevitably blaming and castigating outsiders for his political ineptitude.

Hardly a surprise that Trump failed to mention climate change even once during his inaugural address, despite referencing N. Carolina hurricane and LA wildfires. So regressive. This failure to act is already proving to be so costly across multiple domains, including human lives.

Fairly confident Musk will come to regret a trade war with Canada given Tesla's reliance on Canadian nickel and other critical minerals like lithium and cobalt for battery manufacturing.

I feel nothing but disgust and disdain for everyone in the room yesterday who cheered when Trump said "there are only two genders," and that a person's gender can't be changed. Shameful.
