Even the music is a bit North Korean sounding.

And now that it is said - they will not be beaten again. It would take nothing to teach ChatGPT about chess.

US Catholic priests are a different sort of Catholic. I’d like to see them take Pope Leo’s direction.

There should be a question on law enforcement apps: “3 unarmed men are running to avoid deportation for being poor. Do you shoot them?” If they say yes—rubber stamp REJECT, add to national watch list, and revoke their right to carry anything sharper than a crayon. 🚫🖕 #AbolishICE

How can anyone respect that?

We have now to rely on the people to do the right thing! Our Conservative premieres can’t.

They are in a war zone - they have to make do with what you got. War on children - great elementary school, war on faith - great - a church.
Have they commandeered a Subway yet?

They’re counting on fear keeping you quiet. But fear doesn’t mean powerless, it means aware. If the “front lines” remember who they swore to serve (👋 not fascism), maybe history doesn’t have to rhyme that hard. Holding the line, with love 💛 from 🇨🇦 to the resistors.

I wish all dissidents safety! The world needs more hero’s like Jason, and you, David.
If you aren’t on a “list” are you doing your part?

Almost 50 yrs ago 🇨🇦 gave us the “baby bonus”, monthly support based on income, kid count, & age (babies = 💸). It’s now the CCB & still helps families thrive. We didn’t need a Trumpy savings account PR stunt - we just invested in children like they matter. Novel, eh? #PolicyNotPerformances

The best I can hope for now is that he holds the provinces accountable to providing a livable wage to the unemployable. AND removes the barriers to the CDB.

We want sovereignty and we are stuck between a rock and a hard place. Defense from coast to coast to coast.
CBC has to see that the entirety of NATO is raising its spending to make up for the volatility of the US.
Times? They are a changing’.

“Can’t afford A/C? Then die.”
That’s not policy, that’s eugenics with a hydro bill.
The poor aren’t a blight, your lack of compassion is.
And if expecting basic humanity from humans is insane, then maybe government is the one that needs therapy. 🧊🔥đź§

Our parents paid into a safety net.
What we got? A shredded hammock held up by bureaucrats with scissors.
People aren’t being supported—they’re clinging to the scraps, hoping not to fall.
This isn’t how a country takes care of its own. 💔🇨🇦

Absolutely fuming and I will stay that way. If you voted for DOFO just because he stood up to Trump…congrats, you empowered a toddler in a premier’s suit. PM Carney said it best: it’s Canada first now. 🇨🇦 Minerals? Ours. Future? Ours. Doug? Not ours. 🖕 #BuildCanada

Stand your ground. Do not obey in advance. You can change what happens next and history will remember.
