#China / U.S. #trade truce in trouble (with entanglement of #tariffs) #ICYMI www.cnbc.com/video/2025/0...

Don’t Believe Anything You Hear When it comes to #tariffs, no one should take any statement at face value as we’ve learned time and again over the past few months. bilello.blog/2025/the-wee...

@mark-carney.bsky.social PM #Carney as I understand it tax cuts come from #Parliament. Couldn't this order be defeated in the House of Commons? BTW I don't care for the actionable likeness of "Trump's Executive Order* signing in front of cameras. Not quite the Canadian way.

Trying to understand why Lutnick was able to get away with his remarks 'socialist regime' belittling the value & importance of #Canada? I walked away from a 20 year friendship when this recent US citizen off-handedly referred to her birth country, Canada, as being #socialist where Nazis lived.

Trump can then continue to use this donated plane after his presidency term! Explain this to me 🥺 The plane will then be "donated" to President Trump’s presidential library when he leaves office, the official said, allowing him to continue using it as a private citizen.

Up here the frost warnings are still in the air. My garden's artistic scape is delayed for a wee bit so, I'm reflecting back to previous years. #Anticipation is a wonderful pleasure to embrace! #Paeonia #Peony #gardens #photography #BloomScrolling #flowers #floral

I'll take an unfazed @stephruhle.bsky.social over a neurotic Donald J. Trump any day! I try to watch her every night as she encapsulates the day's happenings behind the scenes.

I also know @stephruhle.bsky.social and she sure as fuck has what it takes to explain this Trump chaos money tariff nonsense.

Ahead of Trump-Carney meeting, US commerce secretary, Loosenut aka #Lutnick, says #Canada's 'socialist regime' has been 'feeding off of America' PM #Carney won't take the bait and I hope he will gracefully exit the oval if any sign of disrespect is shown. tinyurl.com/bdhhy7rp

Winnipeg Jets!!! Yes! Congrats 🎉✈️🎉

Amazing honour to see this #parade in the Netherlands where people lined the streets to thank these #Canadian Veterans, some over 100 hundred years old. Thank you Netherlanders for showing such love & gratitude.❤️ 🤗 As a Canadian I truly appreciate you doing this. youtu.be/pK9-WYtSnso?...

#Buffett said Trump's #trade policies have raised the risk of global instability by angering the rest of the world. “It’s a big mistake in my view when you have 7.5 billion people who don’t like you very well, and you have 300 million who are crowing about how they have done,” Buffett said 1/2

A strong, independent, and free press both defines and defends our values as Canadians. Now more than ever, we need to protect our public forums and defend strong and reliable Canadian voices. #WorldPressFreedomDay
