Yesterday Andrew Scheer threw a Canadian reporter to the conservative wolves and today Pierre Poilievre is quote tweeting JK Rowling on the subject of fundamentalism and authoritarianism.

Quiznos? Cosi? Subway? Jimmy John's? Jersey Mike's? Any sub shop I visit from this day forward will be judged not only on the taste & value of its sandwiches, but their weight, velocity, & stability of their wrapping.

1,440 cases of measles in Ontario this year. It's a disgrace as only 70% of school age children are vaccinated. It's time to get rid of the "philosophical" and "medical" opt outs.

I'm done distinguishing between good Americans and Republican/Trump/Musk types. The existential threat has diminished my ability to tell which ones would invade, and which ones would stand by throwing their hands in the air while mouthing "sorry".

In the last 100 years there have only been three times where a powerful democracy swung towards authoritarian rule and threatened to annex its neighbours: Germany, Russia, and now.

Here, America, is the *real* response to Trump’s address to Congress tonight you need to hear. Circulate it as widely as you can among friends, neighbours, workmates, members of your church. Circulate it especially among Trump voters, so that they can know the needless viciousness of what he’s done.

The federal government needs to place an immediate export tax of 50% on potash. In a month, cut it off. The feds should buy it from farmers and sell what we can elsewhere. They can't get that much from elsewhere.

Pierre Poilievre says Canada is broken.
What's broken is Pierre's campaign to degrade Canada
and give it to Trump. He is the enemy from within.

If you want to know more about why the company sucks, I wrote about it recently — though the story could already use an update with things that have happened since.
Shopify executives are vocally opposing the Canadian government — and now they’re being openly praised by the Conservative Party leader.
They’re trying to extend Silicon Valley’s right-wing project to Canada — and need to be stopped.
