On a day meant to celebrate our nation breaking free from the rule of kings, Donald Trump and his court jesters in Congress are acting like them.

Anyone else worried that, because Canadian voices are less than 4% of BlueSky, we are so distracted by the louder voices from 🇺🇸 that we are neglecting the rise of fascism at home?

We may not be buying American products but Canadians are buying antidemocratic ideas.

America, I wish you all a fierce, defiant, cacophanous, and irrepressible fourth of July.

Roar.
Roar for justice.
Roar for truth.
Roar for the anger. For the disbelief.
Roar for the anguish. For the dreams and the dreamers who are lost to you.

#MarkCarney continues to be the target of deep fakes & disinformation.

Also alarming is that 🇨🇦 has to not only contend with this type of information warfare from the likes of Russia, India, China & Iran, but the US is also a key origin of these assaults. #CdnDisinfo #cdnpoli #cdnmedia

I've heard people that say *when this is over*....To me it will never be over. This is a lifestyle change. It's opened my eyes to just how many Canadian products are available and yet we never knew of them because of the amount of American products on the shelves.

LOL @ the Cons for non-stop yapping about “change” but then desperately trot this monster out for the last six days of the campaign. If this face doesn’t scare all progressives to vote Liberal, nothing will.

#FAFO when dealing with one of the world’s finest economic minds…our PM Mark Carney.
Carney is doing some serious horse trading with the EU to get us into a customs union with them. And if he can do it, Keir Starmer, says Hutton, wants a Canada-style deal with the EU, as do the Aussies, Kiwis, the Japanese and more. Carney is waking the world up to the need for a new super rules.
New trading bloc will enrage Trump and split Republican party

Sen. Booker just broke the record for the longest floor speech in Senate history—a record set by Strom Thurmond trying to block the Civil Rights Act. The irony ain’t lost on us. From fighting against justice to fighting for it. This is what courage & being on the right side of history looks like!

Danielle Smith asking the US to interfere in our election to benefit Poilievre may not meet Elections Canada's threshold for "foreign interference."

But it exceeds most Canadians' tolerance for actions bordering on treasonous.

Trump's only move. Blackmail. He's doing it to everyone: law firms, companies, colleges, states, Canada, NATO, Ukraine. He was impeached in the first term for it. It's the only "art of the deal" he's ever known: strongman mafioso extortion. He'll re-run the same play forever until America collapses.
Trump says he will withhold federal tax dollars to Maine colleges unless the Gov of Maine personally apologizes to him.

A new Prime Minister provides a chance to reset discussions on how we can improve Albertans' lives. Instead, the Premier chose to make demands and insult him.
