Really incredible to have CTV, an entire broadcast news outlet, say they 'don't have the bandwidth' to deal with the type of harassment that Rachel Gilmore deals with as an individual journalist all the time.

Today the Globe & Mail revealed that every disastrous decision made in wasting $70M+ on Turkish Tylenol was made directly by Danielle Smith & the Health Minister. Not AHS - the UCP. They chose the riskiest option on the table as part of a political stunt & left Albertans with the bill. #abpoli

Canada must speak up against the arbitrary detention of travellers. Canadians and other nationals have been kidnapped by ICE. These are not the actions of a democratic nation. This is the creep of fascism. I am calling on Canadians to avoid all travel to the USA. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lt_q...

This is why there's no going back. There' no 'let's just survive the Trump era'. American democracy is dead. Any Canadian leaders still talking about a close relationship with the US in the future are a threat to Canada's security, economy, and sovereignty.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford is urging his Alberta counterpart Danielle Smith to consider an export tax on energy exports to the U.S. He describes it as a "trump card" and that Americans will "lose their minds" if gas prices go up. #yeg #yyc #ableg

As a proud Canadian-owned and operated company, we want to do our part to support Canadians. As a family we have decided to absorb all immediate increases in our costs due to the Trump-tariffs for the rest of the year to maintain our prices. We will continue to reinforce our Canadian-first policies.

"Involuntary", you say? Sounds a bit like a vaccine mandate. Can't wait for all the truckers to drive to a mass protest in Alberta. Oh wait, they live there.

“The combination of forced treatment legislation, along with the potential for these new facilities to be in private hands, shows this govt is more interested in creating a profitable market for private recovery businesses than providing compassionate, evidence-based addictions care to Albertans.”

The boycott is Canada's first line of defence in a long and hard fight against gangsters and fascists. When American politicians see the mounting job losses they will start getting rattled. My message to the world is to join the boycott of all things American. No pasaran. Canada #strongasfuck

www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti... I read the affidavits on the injunction yesterday. I am no lawyer, but the evidence looks pretty flimsy. I mean I also receive hateful phone calls, emails, and mean tweets, but have not hired security. And no evidence that Nate is urging that type of behaviour.

Your good new story for the day. I just received a message from a landlord in Florida. He has lost over $30,000 in rentals since Canadians began the boycott. Canadians are doing their part. LET'S TAKE THE BOYCOTT INTERNATIONAL. We invite allied nations to boycott all things American.

Vance's attack on democracy in Munich is a dangerous breach. Canada has never been more alone and more threatened than now. But Trump is overseeing the divided States of America. We are more unified than ever. We will defend democracy from gangsters. charlieangus.substack.com/p/jd-vances-...
