Can we please not forget to mention that safety and moral opposition are also major factors in Canadians staying away from the USA

Why would anyone need to ask, unless something happened that they are worried about coming out?

I doubt tRump has made many of his own decisions in decades. He's been manipulated by smarter players all his life.

This is exactly what I foresee happening too.
Also, the MAGA base doesn't idolize Vance.

Not so sure. He doesn't have the cult leader influence tRump has. Without DJT, MAGA will fracture.

So sad. 😥 absolutely heartbreaking.💔

When you remember he's part of an American regime that wants to undermine Canada's legitimate government to take control of it, it makes perfect sense.

And opening the ostrich farm owners up to civil suits for willfully threatening the livelihoods of other farmers who follow the rules. There has also been defamation.

I've been predicting November. By then all the bad decisions will be hurting almost everyone and they'll be freaking out about having nothing for Christmas.

And having done nothing to contaminate the site! People and animals continue to be exposed.😳

Meanwhile, over 60 million domestic birds were culled this year in the USA due to avian flu. I wonder if he's going to put a stop to that.

Also: Decontamination protocol is required at a site that has had an outbreak. The virus can linger on surfaces including soil for up to several months (per CFIA documentation).
It's scary how many ppl and animals continue to be potentially exposed at the farm as we speak!

I'm not so sure this is true. All organizations have equal access to public grants. They simply need to apply. It's usually a committee that reviews applications and decides the successful applicants.

You may be right. I'm glad he did regardless. We need all hands on deck for this issue 👍👍👍

This is why it was confusing to me that Carney waded in to the housing issue. I was surprised he took it on as a federal plan.
More collaboration is always great but yes, it mainly lies with provinces & municipalities to solve.

That's exactly why I finally got serious about my veggie garden this year. Everything started from seed to save money.
Since I have the space it seemed like no excuse not to.

Vance is dangerous but since he doesn't have the cult following of tRump, when the Orange Menace dies, I think it's unlikely Vance will be able to keep any unity. There will be immediate in-fighting and probably violence among factions.

Just gave several more million people another reason not to visit the USA.

There is literally no valid research connected to this farm. There is no clinical facility, no accredited researchers, no controlled environment. This makes any so-called research down the line invalid. They simply provide biological material.

"News deserts" 😔. Yes, guerrilla marketing style tactics are needed to reach these areas.

They are all currently gathering in Edgewood, BC to protest the ostrich cull order. Will be interesting to see if the site becomes a vortex of measles or human bird flu 😞 www.grandforksgazette.ca/news/convoy-...

Now ask them why they refuse to show warrants

I've roped hesitant ppl into helping out on important campaigns. Even just small things to start. Once they see the passion and hopeful spirit of other volunteers, and they meet ppl in the activist community, it often gives them the motivation and confidence.

Oh yes! Thievery Corporation, Nightmares on Wax, Kruder & Dorfmeister, St. Germain...so much good music at that time

Love this so much! Maybe someone can persuade Lamb to make more music too 🤞

Love this so much! Now if we can also persuade Lamb to make new music 🎶❤

Finally, a media outlet fact checks the scientific claims that have been repeated everywhere on this issue. Thank you #TheTyee

Rebel News (Drea Humphrey) is taking up temporary residence at the farm to cover the cull. Local sources report they are providing gas vouchers to help protesters get to the site.

We need to seriously look at why they continue to protect PP, despite his massive failure and unlikeability. I feel like there is something we don't yet know.

For $7.4M you could also send approx 6,200 children to daycare for a year.
