1) post a trimmed video (leaving out Good telling the agent who would kill her "I'm not mad at you")

2) despite ample evidence to the contrary, assert that Renee Good "definitely ran (the ICE officer) down."

No, those posts were *reposted* by Adrienne Batra, the Toronto Sun's editor in chief.

"The America you grew up in"

was a lie.
an incomplete myth.
a partial idea about equality that was never honestly implemented.

All this was in the America we grew up in and you were taught not to look.

We stand with Greenland. 🇨🇦🇩🇰
Greenlandic and Canadian Inuit share the same Thule ancestors, who migrated across the Canadian Arctic to Greenland about 1,000 years ago. Despite modern borders, the language and culture are so similar that many Inuit can understand each other across the sea! 🇨🇦🗣️🇬🇱

NEWSNATION: There's new video of a woman in MN saying she's trying to get to a doc appointment & federal agents bust into her car. Is it fair to say some of these operations are going too far?

Greenland PM Jens-Frederik Nielsen:

"If we have to choose between the US & Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark. We choose NATO. We choose the Kingdom of Denmark. We choose the EU."

"Greenland does not want to be owned by the US. Greenland does not want to be governed by the US" he later added.

🚨 If someone opens the door and simply steps aside, even out of fear or confusion, ICE agents can legally enter. This is the pressure point they exploit. The law assumes consent unless it is clearly refused. DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR! Demand a warrant signed by a judge. #ICE

Many areas here in the Western Cape have had rough week with fires.

100,000 hectares have burnt. It’s been extremely dry and hot and the winds have been intense.

This was all predicted to intensify as we cross 1.5°C of heating.
