For years PeePee told us all that Canada was 'broken'. Over and over. We were bust. Kaput.
Now he wants to change horses and claim that we are strong.
Which is it, you lying little Trumpie? Which version of you should we believe (for now)? Depressed whinger or baby Trumpie?

Election call is coming Sunday apparently. April 28 is e-day. Elbows Up, Canada. We aren’t going to get a second chance so we can’t fuck this up like they did in the states.

To Poilievre's friends.

Lay off Carney's kid. Stop being a bunch of bullies and jerks.

It's not okay.

Hearkens back to Fahrenheit 451.
More than 130,000 government pages have gone dark in a purge that one scientist likened to a “digital book burning.” A group of librarians and archivists are fighting back.

Can librarians and guerrilla archivists save the country’s files from DOGE?

Absolutely superb facilities and attitude by everyone.

I just love science. REAL science.
So, um, I share this totally sciency factoid.
THANK YOU Jonathan for your in-depth research.
The Earth is 75% water and that water is uncarbonated.

So technically the Earth is flat

The Convicted Felon has never honoured or respected Vets. John McCain was surely not the first.
All this hate from a little shit with sore feet.
Poor baby.
Now he is ruining and wrecking America. The America which USED TO BE respected and admired.
No longer.
Fucking ludicrous. What happened to respecting our vets? Everything now has an asterisk next to it that reads: *straight white cismen only.

I hate all of this. I want to see more people out in the streets protesting.

Good lord ... Paola on a grand scale.
Apparently, Trump is making CEOs of tariff affected businesses pay him in order to meet with him at MarALago to plead for their businesses to be exempt. A million dollars a meeting. Trump has no incentive to stop the chaos because he's making a lot of money.

A recent study found that cervical cancer deaths in young women have plummeted since the introduction of the human papillomavirus vaccine.

THANK YOU for standing on guard every day, Prime Minister.

Herr Convicted Felon and his friend Musk will make sure through their choices that they build and reinforce eternal hatred in Europe, Canada, everywhere in the world for their choices to support dictators rather than leadership chosen by people on the ground.
These two are anti-democratic terrorists
Both Trump and Musk are Putin’s bitches.

Congratulations and THANK YOU !!
Try to never let the distrustful, poorly-educated, far-right troops of the Convicted Felon win anything. He hates America.
The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025.

This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.

Canadian tax season and crooked practices.
Too long to post here, so see this link; cbc.ca/newsinteractiv…
Remember, H & R Block, and Intuit, are both American.
Get a REAL tax accountant and avoid fraud like what happened to these people.

I am Canadian and I WILL NEVER AGAIN BUY AN ORANGE FROM FLORIDA OR A DROP OF FLORIDA ORANGE JUICE!

FYI, Oasis orange juice is a Canadian brand that sources oranges from Brazil. BUY OASIS! 🍁

VERY foggy tonight in Toronto.
From our 14th floor apartment the mist is blowing between the building with wraith-trails lifting into the dark-gray.
The centre of this great city flicks into, and out of, existence as small glows of lights hazilly appear then are devoured.
Calm sufusses each home.
