The momentum is shifting in favour of Ukraine. You can sense Trump's desperation as he pressures Ukraine. Do not give up! Destroy Russia once and for all. The collapse of RuSSia is near. If not for USA, this would likely have already happened. Slava Ukraine! America is the enemy #Ukraine

Fuck the Olympics...
Some things are worth standing up for over a little bit of sport and entertainment.
I support Ukraine and I cannot accept what the IOC is doing, so I will not watch a single minute more of these games.

It's almost like we do not have winter here in Canada 10 months of the year... I'm impressed with Italy, Norway, and Sweden this time...Canada...not so much. I hate to say it. But it has been disappointing.

The truth is that aside from how it impacts our lives, most Canadians have enough issues without worrying about Americans or their politics
Please stay there. Please do not come here to visit or some bs like you're going to move here because your granny was Canadian.
All of you did this.

America is out there celebrating Olympic medals...like they have something to actually celebrate.
Same folks droning on and on about the Superbowl...
Who cares? You should be more worried about fascism and child abuse that sporting distractions.
It's pathetic. No one is cheering with you.

Camaguey, Cuba. 2019. One of the little shops off the main plaza was very proud to celebrate that the Bidens had once visited...imagine.
Now, the Cuban people are suffering. Trump will not help but hinder them even further (just like Iran). Yet another group of people victimized by Trump.

Don Lemon did a journalism = arrested.
Ice thugs did a murder = silence.
13 shots fired into protestors merits a much greater response than arresting someone for reporting on a protest.
How does 1930s Germany feel, America?

Regardless of what the loss of Arlene and Amber means for Gander (and it is speculation at this point) the important thing is that Gander will hopefully break our dependence on Facebook, X, perhaps even Blue Sky. It is important not to read too much into this development.

Anyone, Canadian or American, who meets to discuss Alberta separatism needs to be arrested for treason. Enough. FAFO.
Americans are self-destructive exceptionalists, let's not let this cancer spread north of the border. Remove anyone who says otherwise. Stop being nice about this FFS.

This is akin to the things you say to Grandpa when he is lying in hospice and the light in his eyes is beginning to fade...you echo the good things he has done..but in a different direction: The reality is that this cabinet meeting is like a glory hole at the 7/11.

There is a lot of talk in the news about the GM layoffs in Oshawa and how the auto sector wants to renew CUSMA. I think they are out of touch with reality. CUSMA is likely dead or at best, subject to extortion and blackmail. Don't waste our time.

This will be the great irony of the 21st Century: If Nato and the United States had actually assisted Ukraine, we would be looking at a very different geopolitical world in 2026 then we were in 2022. In fact, the USA might not be facing chaos and withdrawal on the world stage.
Russia IS losing.

The attack on Ilhan Omar is directly the result of Donald Trump's mad midnight raving and bogus conspiracies. There is a pattern here that leads directly back to the attack on the capital on Jan 6th. This is the true real danger of Trump, inspiring his masses to do his deranged bidding...

I'm looking at buying a new car. We were interested in the Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid.. until we found out its made in Alabama.
I will consider a RAV4 (made in Canada) or a smaller Nissan Kicks (Mexico) or the Volvo XC40 (made in Belgium) before I will ever consider American-made. #CanadaStrong

Albertans, do you see the carnage in the US? #DanielleSmith is bent on having her own police force? Do you understand that America needed to speak out and stand up a long time ago, that when citizens are getting killed and beaten and disappeared, it's already too late?
We need to stop Smith NOW.
