It’s a beautiful day in Canada. 🇨🇦

Once we’ve taken some time to breathe, our next job is to put serious pressure on our government to do more to combat misinformation. Those PSAs during the hockey games aren’t cutting it.

Pope Francis was a bright light in an increasingly dark world. If part of Francis’s legacy is a movement toward capitalism with a conscience and PM Carney is at the forefront of that, that’s all the confirmation I need that I voted for the right party this weekend.

May Francis rest in peace.

For those not watching the post-debate coverage: the CBC is reporting that “right-wing people” accredited as journalists by the Debate Commission have started confronting working journalists in the media room to the point the post-debate scrums with the leaders have been cancelled. #Debate2025

Yeah, because the reason I stopped going to Starbucks is totally because the barista was wearing a pink shirt and definitely not because a hand-crafted coffee costs $8 now. 🙄

According to CTV News, the majority of Canadians want PM Carney to disclose where his assets were held before they went into blind trust. But the point of the blind trust is that he literally has no idea whether he’s still holding those assets or if they’ve been moved elsewhere. So, why the uproar?

It’s shocking we even need to discuss this, but: if you were born after 1970, get your measles immunity checked if you’re not sure you got two vaccines doses. I did it, it was easy, and the whole process is covered under OHIP if you’re in Ontario. Measles is no joke — be safe!

Disappointing Buy Canadian experience today. I bought some Habitant Soup thinking it was the most Canadian soup ever. Label has a Canada symbol and says it’s from Mississauga. But if you look closely, the symbol says “designed in” above it and below it says Product of USA. Check labels carefully!

An unintended consequence of Canada’s 100% import surtax on Chinese-built EVs?

The 2026 Volvo ES90 — an appealing Model S alternative from an established brand — is built only in China and therefore isn’t coming to Canada. Was this the intended effect? My guess is no.

The ES90 is built only in China, so Canada’s 100% import surtax on EVs from that country will keep it out of our showrooms

My gut reaction is 🙄. The flip-flopping is nearly as damaging as just going through with it. And it certainly doesn’t convey strength of position.
