We are now advising Canadians to avoid all non-essential travel to Cuba. Canadians are urged to leave while commercial flights remain available.

I just voted to cancel Trump’s reckless tariffs on Canada. This is a major victory for the American people and for Congress reclaiming our constitutional authority over tariffs. And, it's a defeat for Trump and Speaker Johnson, who for months blocked the House from taking this vote.

NEW from me today:

Tumbler Ridge is mourning a horrific loss. But how the shooter's identity is being talked about online, and the dangerous links being made to trans people at large, will have resounding and dangerous impacts in the months and weeks to come.

If @Harvard University is serious about severing ties with late serial pedophile Jeffrey Epstein once and for all, it would cut ties with this Epstein enabler. Please share if you agree! share.weareultraviolet.org/s/QlEUiQyZ

I’m trying to limit my consumption of bad far-right conservative takes on the horrific shooting in BC but I’ll just say this: if you’re using this awful event to justify your hate of Trans people instead of practicing empathy for everyone affected by the crimes committed then you are truly evil.

Now is the time for unity, empathy and compassion for a devastated community and families that will never be the same.

Sadly, we are seeing some people trying to exploit and weaponize tragedy to promote hatred and division.

Unspeakable violence is never caused by a person’s identity.

Gallego: Lutnick knew he did something wrong because he lied about it. So clearly, you did something wrong. You knew you were doing something wrong. You should not have been associating with this man — and yet you did.

And now we’re supposed to believe everything you say when you’ve already lied?

It is impossible to overstate the degree to which the entire national political media's coverage of the 2024 presidential campaign, especially once Harris won the nomination, was deeply, fundamentally, shamefully unserious about the stakes & the candidates.
I can still recall all the tut-tutting from the media when Harris made this argument.
Kamala Harris at her closing campaign rally:

"Donald Trump intends to use the United States Military against American citizens who simply disagree with him."

Can't deal with a nation you know will tear up any agreements within 24 months.
As Churchill noted, "You can't reason with a tiger while your head is in it's mouth." Same here. They are a deeply unserious partner and we need to get as far as possible from the wreck before the suction pulls us under.

Who cares? Rump had no intention of negotiating anything.

If I'm reading the temperature of my fellow Canadian correctly, will do whatever is necessary to protect our sovereignty. "We will fight them on the beaches....."💪is a common theme.

Of course Trump is thinking about ripping up the trade deal with Canada.
He sees us as an enemy.
Canada must consider the cost we are willing to pay to protect our democracy and independence from an aggressive and authoritarian regime.
It's time.

Thanks to the good folks at @thetyee.ca for republishing my piece from today
The response to the #TumblerRidgeShooting from far-right media, online commentators and even an elected official in Canada is another dark example of how pervasive anti-trans misinformation has become, even in Canada.

That's what I keep saying. I'm sure she's connected to Epstein's sweetheart deal.
Pam Bondi's unhinged performance in Congressional hearing today was not because she was protecting Trump. It's because Bondi is protecting herself. She's clearly implicated in the Epstein scandal because she served as AG of Florida from 2011 to 2019 when Epstein was raping children but did NOTHING!

Trump is threatening to block construction of a publicly owned bridge connecting Detroit and Canada, despite supporting the project in his first term.

A billionaire who privately owns a competing bridge met with Howard Lutnick just days before Trump announced his opposition.

Funny how that works.
