The Paul McCartney Got Back was amazing! How I admire the strength & dedication of this man. At 83 y/o, he held a marathon, song after song, not even a 5min break!
There was a baby boomer man sitting next to us, crying the whole time! His wife was dancing though 😆

As a new Canadian, I read the comments & quotes and I’m reminded how different is the life of Canadian-borns compared to me that none of these “concerned” and “enlightened” individuals know CBSA agents act however they want and not based on a hidden political agenda. Last year my friend was kept…

What a stupid headline. I feel like Canadian reaction was “absolutely unbothered”. It’s like the way an abused stops feeling more pain after a point, and gets clarity that this is an abusive relationship. The recent Trump tantrum was an abuser falling into old habits. We have to get out.

I don’t understand why suddenly Trump’s deal was hailed as “The one!” I grew up watching US presidents on TV making “deals” with Israeli & Palestinian sides of the conflict, thinking “This is it!”
It never is, because there’s no enforcement mechanism, no punitive measures, specially for Israel.

Secondly, there should be ZERO barriers much less financial to anyone seeking preventative vaccines.

How come in the next poll only 45% are sure about the safety of MMR vaccine then? Such a weird poll 😐 Like 55% of people aren’t sure about the vaccines or are against them, but 75% think vaccines should be mandatory for children? Doesn’t make sense.

They’ve gone up, but 1,1130$ in 2019 for two bedroom doesn’t sound right to me. In 2017, we were paying ~1100$ for a one-bedroom in Longueuil. We actually had to move out of Montreal to find a deal like that. We were both PhD students at the time, so any apartment was fine if we could afford it.
Asking rents in Montreal have literally doubled since 2019:
“Rent for a two-bedroom apartment in Montreal has grown from $1,130 in 2019 to $2,272 in October 2025.”
