quite obviously, the Oval Office debacle with Zelensky was a set up, and he fully expected it, he comes out as the winner, the authority and trust of the US tanked
it has cemented the public disdain over tariffs, people now expect harsh retaliation against Trump - in Canada, stop the oil, stop […]

@anthonyfloyd joining with Canada could be more a trade, border and security deal - currency will be an issue, because if that route happens I can see Trumpists cutting the seceding states off from the Fed

@anthonyfloyd actually, I do agree - there is a Cali movement to cede, actual ballot question for 2028, and so much could/will happen in that time

@anthonyfloyd well it won't be the United States, this keeps up, I seriously can see the western states ceding, aligning with Canada

now I and our son are sick, and we sent him to his day program today so he was likely spreading whatever this is to a number of extremely vulnerable people and staff (not Covid, tested twice)
this is the fuck up with unmasked, unmitigated health care, staff spread to families, who spread to […]

this is why Ian, and the idiot CBC editors have to go - when a Gen Z journo calls him out on 'listeners need to fact check', you know the audience gets it, and our national broadcaster is fucking tone deaf
I adore the CBC, grew up with it, want them to do better, they need a good slap down to […]

having had 2 people defend the show, let me double down: it was never meant to be balanced, because you simply can't balance a direct threat: the fact Ian Hanomansing, the editor, NPR even set this up calls into question their journalistic practices
Canvassing SoMe, 1000's have protested, the […]

Having Kevin O'Leary and David Frum on as Cross Country Checkup guests on Canada becoming the 51st state is a new low for CBC. This isn't balanced or a nuanced discussion, the entire topic cannot be nuanced, it's a threat and should be treated as such
So […]

apparently Cross Country Checkup 'discussing' the 51st state threat is already the expected train wreck
Ian Hanomansing truly has to go, he is singularly diminishing the CBC

@chris seriously?!! the fact CBC and Hanomansing even think this topic is worthwhile is singularly idiotic, and CSPAN with that headline only means Trump trolls will push the phonelines
The entire idea is a non starter

https://cbc.radio-canada.ca/en/ombudsman/contact
and contact Cross Country Checkup as well

Let them know how absolutely stupid the whole […]

adding, Canada should put in dedicated border crossing lanes 'Reproductive and Gender Care' the MAGA freak out would be so huge Canada could happily walk away from any cooperation unless on our grounds - call the GOP and Christian Nationalists for what they are, fascists - we fight, don't […]

Dear orange nut job to our south - STFU with your 51st state nonsense or invade already
We have absolutely no desire what-so-ever in becoming Americans
Thank you kindly - all of Canada

@chris the fact that Stephen Harper's IDU is largely behind almost all of this, bringing together the various RW factions, frankly disgusts me as a Canadian - our former prime minister is a fucking traitor to humanity

@chris which is pure irony as the same right wing groups and parties are also anti-EU - it's pure double speak
