A man, near the White House, who describes himself as a "retired disabled combat veteran," after burning an American flag tells bystanders "I am being detained because I expressed my First Amendment rights."
This is the kind of courage that is embarrassingly absent in the ranks of U.S. Republican lawmakers
One can only hope that the brave few who *have* spoken out will soon be joined by others...before it's too late
Because I'm shocked at the pace with which things are getting out of hand in the States

Millions of Canadians are struggling. Yet the Liberals are demanding sacrifices from workers, while handing out billions to the wealthiest individuals and biggest corporations. New Democrats have a better plan: positive, constructive policies to build a stronger, fairer Canada.

Happy to join in the 70th anniversary celebration of Via Rail and The Canadian passenger rail service at the Vancouver terminal.
Rail builds our country, connects our communities and is just a fabulous way to see and experience our beautiful nation.
NDP wants much more passenger rail in Canada!

So apparently this is fine but Canadian governments using advertising to share views with Americans about trade is completely inappropriate.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.
