Quietly enjoying those I follow. Learning, agreeing (most times) and maybe someday adding my voice too. Respectfully observing from downtown YOW in the meantime :)

Just spit ballin here, but, in light of this new geo-political landscape most all adults recognize as real, in an effort to help enhance Canada’s ability to become a more self-sustaining sovereignty, maybe this isn’t the best time to be blowing $10B-plus on a f*cken make-work highway tunnel.

We can build walls or we can be more ambitious — and build something better, stronger, and more just.

I'm old enough to remember when the leader of Canada's official opposition party congratulated Trump for invading a country last week.

Carney's speech today had me wanting to snip quote after quote and post them, much as I would have done when I read Churchill's speeches. It will have a reach beyond Canada but I hope Canadians do read his words and rally around both the reality and the vision he laid out for middle power countries.

The ambassador should be called to the carpet on this. No canadian should set foot in America. This is an escalation.
This post to Truth Social requires an immediate response from the international community and either impeachment or invocation of the 25th amendment by Congress. Republicans, you are sleepwalking the world towards an entirely preventable catastrophe.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's speech today is one of the most insightful, albeit sobering, political speeches in a long time. Carney tells it as it is: "If you're not at the table you'll be on the menu."

Kristi Noem doesn't want anyone saying Jonathan Ross's name.

So, please refrain from using Jonathan Ross's name.

It would be really unkind to keep using Jonathan Ross's name.

So yeah, that's my skeet. About Jonathan Ross.
BRENNAN: Tell me about the officer, Jonathan Ross

KRISTI NOEM: Don't say his name! I mean, for heaven's sake, we shouldn't have people continue to dox law enforcement

BRENNAN: His name is public

NOEM: I know, but that doesn't mean it should continue to be said

It does the public a disservice giving incumbent mayors a platform to celebrate the findings of a website that has dodgier sourcing than a Wikipedia article or a D-grade high school essay

In 1919, the League of Nations was established and Canada became a founding member.
Membership brought Canada its first official contact with foreign governments on its way to establishing itself as a sovereign nation in the British Commonwealth.
This is the story.

On Jan. 9, 1967, the Confederation Train began its journey.
For the next 12 months, it travelled Canada. In each car of the train was a museum dedicated to our history. The horn even played the opening notes of O Canada.
This is the story of the train.

With everything that's going on - a reminder.

Guerilla warfare is foremost a political war, a psychological war, and war is only won or lost via hearts and minds.

#Canada loses when we lose the will to resist. When we choose comfort over agency, justice and self determination.

So resist.

The provinces and territories of Canada have some truly beautiful flags, which honour their history, landscapes and cultures.
They also have some great history too!
This is the history (not the symbolism) of each provincial and territorial flag!

2026 is upon us, and this year will see some important milestones from Canadian history.
I decided to take a look at some of the famous events that happened 25, 50, 100, 150 and 200 years ago.
This is a rundown of 2026 milestones!

Love their products which I discovered when living in Ontario for 5 years.
Now Safeway (owned by Sobey's) in Vancouver carry some of their products. I recommemd their sour cream which is much better than Dairyland's sour cream.

It is really scary that Doug Ford is in charge of Ontario.
Don't let the name "Park" fool you, there is lots of logging going on in the Park.
"Algonquin Park has one of the highest concentrations of old-growth forests in eastern North America"
More about logging 👇

354-year-old forest found in Algonquin Park
Old-growth forests that have been alive since the 1600s were found in a logging zone, placing them at risk, according to researchers and advocates.
