RESIST. We need to continue the boycotts on billionaires and we cannot let up. The power of the people can overcome oligarchy and fascism. Even without an election we vote with every dollar we choose to spend or withhold. Keep applying political pressures however you can.
That's how people usually respond when confronted by a hostile other, who wants to inflict pain on you.
I cannot relate to Americans what-so-ever, any more.
Which is why PP, the Professional Politician, has fallen in the polls. Under Carney the Liberals may have a real chance. Carney, as a successful business man, has to be very clear about his blind trusts and personal wealth disclosure. PP doesn’t have that issue, never having held a real job.
It’s not all won already. The PP people WANT TO BE THE 51st STATE and they understand the bullshit game and they will play along, just like MAGA. They are Nazis.
Dems do not know how to fight or message. They spend time on cable news with constant handwringing but remain disorganized and ultimately drop the ball.
Over and over again..
@schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social the democrats need to wake up to the fact that we want representatives who are going to fight for us. If you and other elected Dems aren’t up to this fight, why not resign now and save us the trouble of having to primary you next year?
They have not been nor will be up to this fight.
This particular fight- the trump coup-has been going on since 2015. Dems have done NOTHING to stop it. But they sure have rat-finked on those of us who actually have tried to do something over the past 10 years.
All I have left for them is 1 big 🖕🏼
Reminder: We built Amazon, Facebook, & Tesla - we created the oligarchy. There are MANY online & EV alternatives. Economic blackouts are waves that can be ridden-CHANGE vendors! Without purchases & ad clicks their revenue, stock prices, and wealth will crumble. We can do this!
IT( t***p) IS weak and stupid. I can’t apologize enough for what this country is doing to 🇨🇦. While you and I know A lot of 🇺🇸 don’t support this, that doesn’t change the fact that this threat is real. Continue to unite and defend your country and freedom. Do what u need to do… Keep fighting!! 🍁🍁🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Thank you for saying that. I've received some strong push back after speaking out even on this platform. If you look closely at Canada's tariff response you'll see we are specifically targeting red states. Thank you so much for your support. 🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸
I did notice that. Full transparency, I was born and raised in a blue, pro democracy state and currently live in a red pit of hell run by magat loyalists😡 Red states and IT deserve All the pushback and Resistance that 🇨🇦 can give💯💯 You know this but IT is a little b**ch and Weak. Keep up the fight!✊✊
Understand that Americans are not getting all the facts. Canada's TARGETED tariffs are a great strategy. They are focusing on the states controlled by MAGA-Fascists in line with Trump. The Administration is conveniently not relaying this, just "Canada BAD" over and over.
Thank you for that. I believe this is true as Canadians don't feel the need to be loud and proud. We have always been quietly proud of who we are but we don't hesitate to stand up for what we believe when threatened as the US is beginning to find out.
I really do. I survived a plane crash in Philadelphia, where so many people should be dead. That’s divine intervention! I can’t get fucking eggs! I know why God wants another Carter as President a J Carter that’s me. Bet Trump has eggs that fucker!! Haha
Canada has been under threat from America for a few centuries now. It's not our first rodeo. We want to be friends and allies. We didn't ask for this, and will defend ourselves in ways America isn't expecting.
#CanadaStrong
We need to replace both The House and as much as we can of The Senate in 2026.
We don't have time to waste, we need recognizable names that have been in the fight long enough to be trusted to do the job that needs to be done. People like you.
The difference is we 🇨🇦know the facts and truth. Most Americans do not..eliminate the far right media that has taken over your country. All owned by far right rich guys who are manipulating what all Americans think. You’re govt has been taken over by the enemy!!
When Americans see the destruction that our elected officials are perpetrating, we stand up for justice. Turn off the lying FauxNoys propaganda media, and seek the truth. Decades of corporate brainwashing has replaced civic responsibility for a daily grind that leaves little room for free thought.
Why don't you understand the Canadians have nonbiased mainstream media? Please attack the US Media who goes along with authoritarians and would blame only Democrats for the government shut down. The Media bashing will surely sway the dimwitted voters in the middle again and help Trump again.
Yes #SenSchumer and to the others of the 10, of the #Democrats, that's a great clue for you to understand, or get. ⬆️ or ⬇️ These are NOT business-as-usual type of months! There are actual nazis in the white-house. Open eyes Mr. Schumer. Wash out your eyes.
The United States often views politeness as a weakness. Nevertheless, in any conflict, we're confident in our resilience and our ability to emerge even stronger.

Carney is a Harvard and Oxford graduate..... he knows his stuff. The big question is why doesn't Polievre have security clearance? What is he hiding and where are the investigative journalists on this?
Hey George.
Let's never forget the Canadian Actor that you worked with. The nicer one
James Doohan (Scotty)a real life hero, Canadian Infantry and a participant in the D-day invasion of Normandy.
No retreat, no surrender, this is our Hill.
Two months ago, here in Canada, we were resigned to the fact that the dreaded conservatives were going to win this election. It was over. It would take a miracle to stop them. Well, thank you Donald Trump, miracle delivered.
The American flag, once a unifying symbol of freedom, resilience, and justice, has been hijacked by MAGA extremists who use it as a banner for their warped version of patriotism. Just like the red hat, it has become less about love for country and more about blind loyalty to a political cult.
Chuck Schumer and every Dem that voted for the trump budget did serious damage to their party. If the Democratic party wants to see it's numbers rise swiftly, they will replace Schumer and condemn their cowardice.
Yes but their conservative party is still winning. Canada has their own growing right-wing movement (not the one in 1st place) as does every democracy in the world.
Oh and Elon Musk is pouring money into Canada, just like the US and Europe to elect Nazis to office everywhere.
Senate Democrats always. Always. Want someone else to do the hard work for them. Would appreciate some suggestions on who best to replace Schumer at the top. Must be a strategic street fighter or two amongst the 45. Yes?
‘Let’s only fight a few of Trump’s worst nominees.’ Why not all the bad ones? Why not block votes till Trump blinks?
‘Let’s wait till the fall to make our stand—when surely the Republicans will be less popular & we’ll be less likely to anger…. ‘ Who? Who do they fear angering?
The difference between Canada and the US is it's people stand united in their boycott of US. We have 48% who like the Trumpet and another large block in the it doesn't affect me so shrugs group. It's left to the rest of us to go WTF.
Modern authoritarian regimes rely on people "going along", focusing on their individual lives, not on the trauma around. The valid response is exposure and action.
Reminder: We built Amazon, Facebook, & Tesla - we created the oligarchy. There are MANY online & EV alternatives. Economic blackouts are waves that can be ridden-CHANGE vendors! Without purchases & ad clicks their revenue, stock prices, and wealth will crumble. We can do this!
The others 9 Senators who voted “yes” for the Continuous Resolution need to be primaried, defunded, booed, yelled at & made to be pariahs in the Democratic Party.
Trump is treating Canada as if it is a business. He's not trained or educated in DIPLOMACY or POLITICS. A company CEO may cower or panic. A Country doesn't.
Thanks for reposting this by Neera. I missed the original and it makes a point that EVERY Democrat politico needs to learn. Moving to the left is a winning strategy. Not the extreme left; but enough to be noticeable yet sellable to the public.
Yes! We built Amazon, Facebook, & Tesla - we created the oligarchy. There are MANY online & EV alternatives. Economic blackouts are waves that can be ridden-CHANGE vendors! Without purchases & ad clicks their revenue, stock prices, and wealth will crumble. We can do this!
Same in my household & community. Everyone is checking labels and refusing to buy USA products. Canada is, well WAS, the largest export market for the USA. Not after this.
We cancelled Amazon prime, music, audible and are now examining EVERY purchase decision to avoid supporting fascism.
#elbowsup
Especially corrupt authoritarians who only care about taking all of our tax dollars for their pockets! Musk is probably one of the biggest beneficiaries of our tax $ but he wants more. & why is he able to direct firings of our public servants that our representatives voted for! Remove the Grifters!
The advantage that Canada has is that candidates can win an election without a majority (>50%) of votes. That makes more than two parties viable. America's 50% requirement locks us into a two-party system.
TreasonousTrump and his MAGAt crazy belief in Project 2025, and his being next in line for the American throne are driving many Canadians away from the CONS led by Peter Parlezvous to the Liberals. Prior to TreasonousTrump's election, the CONS were going to win. By a lot. Now that is in question.
And you can’t run on ‘Canada is broken’ and sell that you will stand up to Trump. He boxed himself in with the narrowness of his platform and now he’s got nothing. Bye, PP.
PP aka angry Milhouse is probably the angriest Canadian politician, I have ever seen. I get bombarded by his ads on YouTube. I’ve pressed “pass” on him a long time ago. I’m not going to vote for him ever so I just let it play through so they have to pay for it.
Naw, Americans in general. Dems aren't a lot better, they just don't say the quiet part out loud. Do you see them doing nothing right now? Two wings of the plutocracy bird.
I see AOC, Bernie and others doing something. I see your average American who didn't ask to be part of a 20th century empire collapse trying to hold onto their beloved identity. Censorship isn't blocking everything from us..
I see reports about at least four protests every night - I think the max night covered 12 or 16 different protests around the US that day. That's 20-30 protests a week.
I think the world is waiting for Americans to gather by the hundreds of thousands in DC.
Other than "bleached blonde," "loud," and "plastic." That little brunette who was giving her escort a handjob in the theatre is a rare dark-haired one.
I have friends in the states - none of them are blustering, lying idiots.
I know folks like that exist - they seem to exist everywhere - but it's the "We're Number 1" American "exceptionalism" and "manifest destiny" that makes them unrelentingly obnoxious.
Hello George, thanks for all you do here and elsewhere to fight for our democracy. I am trying to get this out. Don't have a lot of clout but maybe you could pick it up. Hope so. Thanks
The liberal party is old school corruption. Cronyism and socialism. We can give with that. Completely undermining democracy and truly handing Canada over to corporate rule we can not. A Liberal minority government with the NDP support was mostly good for Canada. The Cons can't and won't win
The liberal minority with the NDP support was the best version of governance we've had in a long time, getting a lot done for us citizens.
But Singh had to be a fool and shiv Trudeau in the back. I predict he will be rewarded with catastrophic numbers for the NDP in the next election.
I agree the NDP will see low numbers. But not for ending support of the Trudeau gov but for ineffectual leadership from Sing. I don't hate Trudeau like the truck nutz Bois but he still would have tanked the fed Liberals and he had to go.
His departure may prove to be the miracle LPC needed. Singh preemptively tearing up the agreement will be the NDP's downfall. He's been lacking good political instincts. Charlie Angus would be a much better leader.
I think I would personally like Jagmeet Sing very much. He is a standup guy for sure. And he did a good job for the NDP and Canada but he isn't taking the party forward. Charlie would or Heather Macpherson
At least 2 of them have already announced they’re retiring.
Schumer isn’t up until 2028 & he’ll be 78 then. Doubt he’ll run again.
Durbin is up next year & he’ll be 82. He’s probably retiring.
Angus King is an Independent. He’s 80 & just won another term so he’ll be 86 when his term ends in 2030.
Doubt he’ll run again. Gillibrand isn’t up until 2030. Fetterman is in a state that just elected Trump & a Republican senator so his constituency is very swingy.
Canada is open to negotiations but not disrespect such as calling us the 51st state or our prime minister a governor; we will also not accept tariffs without reciprocating. I wish someone could explain how the tangerine tyrant thought he could simply violate trade agreements without consequences.
They’re not dealing with a criminal malignant sociopath with a cult in Canada…their govt isn’t under attack from within…Dems already impeached him twice and the American electorate rewarded him by putting him back in office…Dems aren’t cowering the American electorate that voted for this stain did!
The Republican rally cry used to be: “The USA will not negotiate with terrorists!!” Trump is the domestic terrorist - which has been the highest warning threat for nearly a decade. The Republicans got conned by Putin.
If by some miracle the Dems control the House and Senate in two years, things will be a lot different.
They could have shut down the government- but it would not have stopped Trump and Musk. And eventually the court’s funding would run out so no TROs etc.
LOL. Sure. 🤦♀️.
Have you been introduced to Pierre Poilievre…..The most unlikeable, disingenuous, nasty, snarky person who has ever run for office in Canada. Conservatives are too much like republicans.
did I say I was a fan of him? please stop interpreting what I say to your own detriment. I just said the Lieberals were a bunch of crooks (and they are). didn't say anything about anyone else.
We have been fighting for our sovereignty since February. We are very, very angry. We won't stop until the Felon leaves us alone.
We'll fight right to the end. Come what may. We've dug in. It's what we do, we've always have. It's in our genes
Can you do something no! He is a disgrace and how any person voted for a convicted felon is beyond my comprehension, to give more to the rich than the poor is insane. I feel it in my whole being he is falling and fast! He is not a good man!
I really hope they don’t expect me to fight if things were to come down to a draft.
I live up north and have been to Canada plenty, and have them stop by my work place lots and have no ill will whatsoever.
and Mark Carney leaves today for England and France for talks. Returning Tuesday. No word on his intentions to contact the USA. I hope he sticks to his guns when he says he will talk to the US when the US is respectful.
What's there to negotiate? Your President is giving us an ultimatum: capitulate to annexation or face consequences. You can't negotiate a backstab like that.
you cannot negotiate when there are no issues or terms; he did this to rally his base at home because they need an enemy to hate and he will only be able to blame the economy on Biden for so long; since the whole world is retaliating to tariffs they will have lots to hate: magas love to hate
Went to Super C yesterday for tomato soup. The whole display was filled with American Campbell's, discounted at 99¢, big flashy signs to grab the attention. Hidden in the lower corner was Aylmer, regular price 99¢. Shame on the grocer.... I bought the Aylmer of course.

We have all the power.
