#Canada strong & steady, must to stop reacting to the fickle president & act in the long term best interest of our country. Time to get our house in order. Tearing up free trade agreements = generational opportunity to regain autonomy over our resources & re-tool for a sustainable future. #tradewar

Tomorrow, February 28, let’s disrupt the status quo by spending ONLY at businesses that uplift our communities.

That means:
🚫 No gas from corporate giants
🚫 No fast food chains
🚫 No big-box retailers (Target, Walmart, Amazon, etc.)

Bluesky is a great place to find them.

Here's a starter pack of folks I'd recommend in climate.

As long as the media & world leaders continue to allow current US antics to dominate the narrative, this circus will continue. Every teacher and parent knows to not feed destructive & harmful behaviors.

Our family just cancelled a 7 day ski trip in Washington State for political reasons. We will not visit the #USA until a post - #Trump America.
