This is the Russia-Ukraine story again. I'll let you guess who's who in this one.
Jaw-dropping revelations in The New York Times on the most recent Trudeau-Trump calls. Report says that Trump, alongside rehearsing familiar list of grievances against Canada, told Trudeau he wanted to revise the US/Canadian border. He offered no justification.

Here's a snippet of the story linked below from the Halifax Examiner's Morning File (in case you're not a subscriber). Why are we still refusing blood/tissue/organ donations from gay men? What is the actual, medical reason? Oh right, it's homophobia. www.halifaxexaminer.ca/morning-file...

Left X over a year ago and finally decided that Threads might not be enough or the right place for me so here I am once again trying a new platform. I see so many familiar names that I’ve missed while entrenched in Bookstagram bliss. I love the bliss, but also excited for the discourse again!
