Congratulations Mark Carney, Liberal Party Leader & Prime Minister of Canada! I'm an Organizational Psychologist & Retired Professor of Business. Leadership scholar & educator, strategic & human resource management specialist. Activist/Dancer/Gardener. 🇨🇦🍁

Appreciate being included in your starter pack, Jesse. Just so everyone who follows me is clear. I am not American but I follow US politics closely. I am Canadian & am boycotting the USA until 47 is gone. I'm married to an American & am here for democracy, news & politics. This is not a dating site.

The whole meeting between Putin and his puppet hasn’t been very transparent. After reporters asked Putin if he would stop killing innocent children, 47 told his goons to remove all the press. And 47 as fanboy is horrible. Follow and 47 is not presidential.
This is what wise leadership looks like.

The other 🇨🇦🍁 provincial & territorial premiers should be taking note.

The EU supports the sovereignty of Denmark and the people of Greenland. Threats from the US do not contribute to dialogue and security in the Arctic.
The measures threatened by Trump's administration this weekend will not improve security in the Arctic, but may have the opposite effect.

Two very important images about Greenland. First showing the magnificent northern lights observed lately over the island. And the second showing its true size. Unfortunately cartography is tough to comprehend for certain kind of people.

Canada preparing for an invasion by US. I’m ashamed. I went to school up there. I love Canada. Elbows up.

HNY! #IRCC invited a whopping 8,000 candidates under the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) of #ExpressEntry today. The minimum CRS score dropped to only 511 points -the lowest score since 2024! Learn more in our blog:

“Just as in his first term, Trump has worked to rehabilitate Russia’s standing on the world stage, treating Vladimir Putin not as a terrorist, aggressor, destabilizer, and architect of a genocidal war but as a legitimate negotiating partner”

If Someone Wanted to Destroy America, What Would They Do Differently?
When Trump first came to power in 2017, I repeatedly and publicly asked a question that has only grown harder to dismiss over the past decade: if someone deliberately set out to destroy the United Sta...

Why am I a proud Canadian?

Leadership at it’s finest 🇨🇦
I’m in Davos, Switzerland, to secure new trade and investment partners for Canada.

Because Canada has what the world wants — we’re an energy superpower and a reliable trading partner, with the most educated workforce in the world.

What a massive failure!
Trump promised to Make America Great Again. In reality, he is Making China Great Again.

By bullying allies like Canada and Europe with tariffs, he forces them to deepen ties with Beijing to survive.

He is handing global influence to China on a silver platter. Sadly

Adopt the hard line this time. Stop importing goods from the US. There are plenty of European alternatives. Make it mandatory to label US products so customers are aware and can make an informed choice. The Danish system works and there are already apps to help.

UN’s Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese:

“I truly hope that people will stay calm, will not panic, and will remember that the international community is made of 193 states, and this is the time to give the US what it has been looking for – isolation!”

Canada isn't turning to China because they want to. They are doing it because Trump gave them no choice. Europe is ignoring his China policy for the same reason.

When you treat allies like hostages, they start looking for an exit.

This is a massive strategic failure

This is such a cool illustration of how the Mercator map distorts the size of Greenland, which looks as big as the whole continent of Africa on that map but is actually the size of Mexico.

There’s a familiar way of looking at US–EU tensions: the US as senior partner, the EU as the junior one. Flip the lens: a different picture comes into focus — one where Europe’s strengths don’t just irritate Washington, they threaten it. Not militarily, but symbolically, economically, normatively. 🧐

It's unfortunate that Canada reduced the # of international students in recent years, in response to lack of affordable housing for Canadians. I taught thousands of international students in my career as a professor of management & business administration. Today I would advise against going to USA.🧐
The scale and speed of state censorship of campus really is amazing.
More than half of America's college students attend institutions in states that have passed laws censoring higher education since 2021.

Territorial integrity and sovereignty are fundamental principles of international law. They are essential for Europe and for the international community as a whole.
