“Many Americans don’t take Trump’s threats to Canada seriously — or seriously enough — and dismiss them with the same exhausted shrug that too many of Trump’s words inspire…. In Canada, he doesn’t sound like a troll. He sounds like a threat.”
What Canadians Heard—and Americans Didn’t
The Canadian federal election, on Monday, which culminated in Mark Carney’s retention of the Prime Ministership, was won by defying Trumpism.

Madeleine L'Engle; this is why they want you illiterate
![[“The first people a dictator puts in jail are the writers, the teachers, the librarians—because these people are dangerous. They have enough vocabulary to recognize injustice and to speak out loudly about it. Let us have the courage to go on being dangerous people.”]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hppum4l25hcczzffastsicpq/bafkreig3dcwrzxtvuj2hkgj2mg3rgwactm77awp4ygvxjuje5q67yact7m@jpeg)

Thanks! I needed this today!
While joy emanates from within, managing external influences is crucial for maintaining it. This doesn't mean turning a blind eye to global issues— it's about disconnecting regularly to reconnect with our inner selves. Joy is precious. Nurture it before time slips away.

I've just called my MP and MPP and asked them to cancel all dealings with Elon-owned companies. Ontario just bought $100 million worth of Starlink services to service the North and I want out province to have no dealings with this ... fine gentleman.
I ask all Canadians to do the same, please.
