#Ukraine is the shield. They’re bleeding so we don’t have to.
Unfortunately, that’s why countries send aid - not to be nice. It’s the cheapest way to prevent a far worse war, where eventually their own soldiers and citizens are caught in the crossfire.
Only ones who should be “thankful” are us.

Canadians have spent our whole lives pushing back against being lumped in with the US. Not because we have anything against Americans, but because we take pride in being distinctly Canadian.
That defiance has become part of our identity 🇨🇦

The US has “light shale” oil. Canada has “heavy crude”. Aviation, agriculture, construction, shipping, manufacturing, and energy all rely on diesel, jet fuel, asphalt, ship fuel, lubricants, and industrial oils from heavy crude - not light shale.

Dear Trump,
You claim not to need us, but you’re acting kinda possessive and desperate. Big time giving us the ick. Now listen… I know rapists don’t like taking no for an answer, but this isn’t us playing hard to get. We’re just not interested.
Not yours (truly),

If you’ve been feeling a strong sense of Canadian pride over the past few days, you’re not alone. We are united and strong - this is who we are at our core.
Remember that when you’re at the polls and see the name of the guy who spends every opportunity talking about how ‘broken’ #Canada is.

If I were Canadian PM I would immediately:
1. Create a new $15B science fund
2. Offer any credentialed US scientist funding for lab startup and replacement of NIH grants if they move to Canada
3. Immediate permanent residency
4. Citizenship after 2 years
Overnight a science superpower

Can we start calling it what it is? #CriticalRaceTheory explores how laws & policies (education, housing, jobs, justice) have created inequality for BIPOC, over time. This imbalance has stemmed from our history of colonialism/slavery, and these are facts - not an attack on white people. (1/2)
