“Canada’s tourism sector generated a record-breaking amount of revenue of between May and August, reaching $59 billion…”
So much winning!

Opinion: This is what the opening move of the U.S.’s attempted annexation of Canada could look like
A Trump annexation effort would likely start in the North. It’s time to take the possibility seriously and have a hard conversation about Canada’s maritime Arctic sovereignty

Don't be suckered in by Poilievre's campaign to launch a campaign over Canadian Christians suffering "persecution." He is running the same playbook as the AfD in Germany, Trump in the States and Farage in the UK.

Ladies getting things done in my home province. The small community of Branch, NL has had an all-woman town council since 2013. They were just re-elected with more than 95 per cent voter turnout out! 😁

Makes an old fart feel like a college kid again knowing that so many young Canadians share my (extremely) negative opinion of Pierreasite Poi-LIE-vre.
Now, hopefully, I don't do something foolish like jumping out of a swing or racing my dog to celebrate my newfound connection to young Canadians. 😉

“73% of young Canadians say they have a negative opinion of Pierre Poilievre.”

Truth and Reconciliation Day is an opportunity to acknowledge that Indigenous Peoples continue to face systemic racism, cultural erasure, and the generational trauma caused by residential schools.
Honour these truths and assume responsibility for our role to make sure that it never happens again.

On 9/11, flights on the way from Europe to the USA were diverted to Canada. 38 flights holding almost 7000 passengers landed in Gander, NFLD, a town of under 10,000. The Plane People were welcomed with open arms. They were strangers who became family.
