I can't really convey how it feels to be stabbed in the back by the US and the UK after Canada has *always* stepped up for them whenever they've needed us, up to and and including fighting and dying at their side. Betrayal doesn't begin to describe it.

Too many multinational businesses use offshore tax havens to own their patents, trademarks, and copyrights and divert their profits.
For what it's worth, I've been yelling about this as an American. And will keep yelling about it.
Threatening to invade our neighbors is deeply not OK.
Vimy, not Vichy 🇨🇦.
The omission of Canada in all political discourse by these 2 allies is disheartening
And yes, they can make basic statements of support for Canada/against annexation while also focusing on Ukraine. BOTH
That said, California is routinely ignored by these guys, since we voted against Trump about 60-40.
(For what little it's worth, our business has made an 'anti-tariff' discount and pegged the exchange rate, for Canadian customers. It's a bit of a token, for sure, but it's a gesture at least)
Trump is ending that.

Starmer is a politician. He knows there’s no point getting into a public argument with the demented orange idiot - as Zelenskyy found on Friday.

While you sit conscious behind the eyes of the zombie, unable to stop the lurching body you now inhabit.
All it takes is clear statements and moral clarity at this juncture to prevent Canada from becoming the next Ukraine, which is a real threat
PROACTIVE ACTION NOW, not act when it's too late, & never appease
BOTH Ukraine and Canada could be triggers for WWIII
BOTH
People not taking Trump seriously is how we all got here in the first place
