My latest Substack is this Canadian's take on how Prime Minister Mark Carney is dealing with Trump. Please feel free to weight in and share. duncanmatheson.substack.com/publish/post...
Elbows Up, or Elbows In?
Standing tough against Trump felt good. Playing the long game may matter more.

Only 4 pre-approved questions a day, the majority from party friendly outlets, and no follow ups.

Time to pull this one out again.

Following audio of the appeals court hearing on MSNBC on the deportation flights. The Trump lawyer is sure squirming.

Nazi Musk calling Senator Mark Kelly a 'traitor' is laughable. Kelly is a Navy combat pilot, NASA astronaut, and U.S. senator who served this country. Meanwhile, Musk parrots Russian propaganda and diverts resources from the American people. The real traitor is the billionaire robbing our country.

Just watched coverage of Trudeau and numerous European leaders doing their news conference after meeting on the Ukraine situation. An awful lot of renewed pledges and commitments of contuined and increased support for Zelensky on the heels of Trump switching to the dark side.

I don't watch much football, I'm more of a hockey guy. But I got caught up in the hype so settled in to watch the Super Bowl. Maybe it's just me, but this is boring.
