It’s clear that the primary interest of the US in “peace negotiations” is to create opportunities for Trump, Witkoff, their family members, business partners and cronies to make billions from business deals with Russia, and Ukraine is just the annoying nuisance in the way.

Last night I slept uncharacteristically poorly as I was awoken by constant nightmares. Reading Victoria Giuffre’s story was traumatic and I’m a psychologist! These child victims deserve justice and other children deserve protection from such abuse! It’s on us to act.

Cognitive psychologist, here.
Trump is not describing IQ tests. He is describing taking measures of cognitive decline from dementia.
Those aren’t hard. All the questions should be easy. I hope he passes, but worry he isn’t.

Trump: AOC is low IQ. If you give her an IQ test, have her pass like the exams that I decided to take when I was at Walter Reed. Those are very hard…
The first couple of questions are easy. A tiger, an elephant, a giraffe..

The Blue Water Bridge has linked Point Edward, Ontario to Port Huron, Michigan since 1938. My first photo shows the Canadian side and the second shows the US side. Both sides are flying a Canadian flag and a US flag. Why are right wing politicians seeking to destroy our friendship?

After living in Kingston for decades, we finally visited Bellevue House. Canada’s first Prime Minister, Sir John A. MacDonald, lived here in 1848. Don't you just love that green bathtub? BTW Shout out to Parks Canada for their balanced treatment of Sir John A.’s legacy.

I have many thoughts about this list of books but for now I’ll just say contact your MLA, the premier, the minister of education and your school trustee if you are also mad.
Well, the list of books being banned from EPSB is appalling. And it's very likely that an author on this list will get their other works pulled too, especially in the absence of teacher librarians.
There are books on this list that changed my life. This is what the UCP is taking away from kids.

Despite generating crises in the US and abroad, Trump claims he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize
Next up, a love affair with Putin without any input from Ukrainian President Zelenskyy.
Who expects him to be a fair arbitrator?

The fact that the President of the United States posts a fake video of a kneeling Barack Obama being handcuffed and we’re supposed to pretend it’s perfectly normal, everyday stuff shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

Today we had a spectacular boat tour of Lake Maligne in the Jasper area. The drive back to the hotel was complicated by two groups of Albertans who insisted on crossing the highway without following the traffic rules 😂 😂 😂
