By helping call Putin’s bluff, Putin is now calling his bluff back: Trump doesn’t want to add sanctions against Russia. Trump manoeuvred himself into a corner he could have directly avoided in the short-term by letting the Europeans run with their 30 day deadline to Putin.
Zelenskyy has called Putin's bluff. The Kremlin does not want peace: 1) Putin rejects a 30-day ceasefire, & 2) neither Putin nor Lavrov will participate in the Istanbul talks. Time for more Western pressure on Russia & more arms for Ukraine.

Gee, I wonder what country has offered to supply the EU with gas from now on. Canada, I’m looking at you. Pipelines ready? #elbowsup #Alberta #LN #cdnpoli #Canada #Carney www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Poilievre Bragged That He Has Never Changed His Mind. That’s the Problem that Kory Tenycke is pointing out to Conservative organisers. He’s highlighting that Ford built the template on how Conservatives can easily win Ontario seats but Pierre won’t use it. Shocking.

All successful companies separate operational and capital expenditures in theory budgets. Thank you, Mark Carney, for aligning the Canadian government’s budgeting practices with the world’s gold standard of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. #cdnpoli #canada #elbowsup
There is a difference between bad debt and good debt
Trudeau was a pro at bad debt - borrow and give it away no longterm tax revenues
Carney will balance operational budget and borrow for capital projects
Capital projects will create jobs, improve trade, and increase tax revenues

Protecting a rules-based order means defending marginalized kids, adults, communities, and countries from being dominated by their bullies. This isn’t just the job of governments. It starts in your own home, school, community, and country. Don’t accept bullying at any scale!

@mattgurney.bsky.social Dude, I’m a Canadian who has lived abroad 25+ years. You have a super strong Canadian accent. You’d be sussed out in a Texas bar the moment you started breathing your accent.

As a leader of the Conservatives, Smith celebrates paying 10% tariffs on Alberta oil sold that now also has lost over 10% of its market value since Trump’s Liberation Day. The Progressive Conservatives were at least coherent. #CdnPol #Canada
Just 12 hours after U.S. auto tariffs came into effect, Stellantis temporarily shut down its Windsor, Ont., assembly plant and laid off thousands of workers.

PP claims he doesn’t want his clearance so that he can speak out against what he isn’t cleared to find out. This is senseless. That kind of logic is unfitting for a Prime Minister. #LPC #Canada #cdnpoli
After 931 days as Conservative leader, Pierre Poilievre still refuses to get his security clearance.
The choice is clear.
