Canada has its own leader, and it’s not #DanielleSmith. Undermining Canada’s solidarity, leadership, and its citizens is unwelcome. Focus on provincial matters—you’re barely managing those. Don’t neglect the needs of #Alberta citizens. We need more doctors, not private healthcare.

Warships massing in the Caribbean. Could this be a prelude to striking Venezuela—crippling oil output or seizing control? Some speculate it’s more than geopolitics: a manufactured crisis to invoke emergency powers and delay the U.S. election. #Venezuela #Oil #WarPowers #Election2025

Warships gathering in the Caribbean. Is this a show of force—or the prelude to a strike on Venezuela’s oil infrastructure? Whether to cripple production or seize control, the implications are global. #Geopolitics #Oil #CaribbeanTensions

The #AnchorageSummit was a glaring example of #Trump’s failure to lead on the global stage. Despite the low expectations, he still managed to underdeliver—offering no progress and reinforcing his reputation as a #Putin proxy rather than a credible statesman #uspoli #cndpoli #EU #GOP #MAGA continued

So the #VonTrumps want #WashingtonDC cleared of its homeless citizens. Fair enough—but where exactly do you plan to place them? In #AlligatorAlcatraz?

After two years of increases, homelessness drops 9 percent in D.C.
The latest results of the annual Point-In-Time count come as the District faces increased pressure from the White House on homeless encampments.

This is exactly why many #MAGA supporters voted for #Trump — to see $200 million of America's money spent like this. Thank goodness for the taxpayers; without them, this project wouldn’t have been possible. #uspoli

This human falsifier accuses some unknown entity of possible fear-mongering and causing division in #Alberta. When her actions are already well ahead of the curve. It's time to dethrone this quasi Dictator wanna be.

#Alberta, regardless of citizens' feelings about referendums or voting, will have no choice but to show up or risk being overlooked The threshold to move forward with a referendum has now dropped from 20% of the population to just 10%, a shift reminiscent of American gerrymandering

To all those fine people on both sides. The question of #tariff . Here is the everyday person. Traveling on an everyday route to their everyday routine. Does anyone know what tariffs are? #Maga you have rights but now you have lost them along with your wallet. #uspoli #world #cdnpoli
The secret behind who ultimately pays tariffs often isn't as straightforward as it may seem.

Trump posted on his social media: “THE OPERATION IS OVER! THE PATIENT LIVED, AND IS HEALING. THE PROGNOSIS IS THAT THE PATIENT WILL BE FAR STRONGER, BIGGER, BETTER, AND MORE RESILIENT THAN EVER BEFORE. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!”

Can you believe we have a president that posts shit like this?

"Impossible. She came to see us in Quebec in 1995 to tell us that she loved us, and since then she has despised us. I do not like this woman who leads a province that will become poor if she continues to rely on her oil. The era of hydrocarbons is over. You must understand."

Impossible. Elle était venu nous voir au Québec en 1995 pour nous dire qu'elle nous aimait et depuis ce temps elle nous méprise. Je n'aime pas cette femme qui dirige une province qui deviendra pauvre si elle continue à miser sur son pétrole. C'est terminé les hydrocarbures. Tu dois comprendre.
