Fuck everyone who ever voted for, apologized for, or supported this guy in any way.

Trump: "We have to take care of our law enforcement."

The largest purchaser of wine is the Liquor Control Board of Ontario. The shelves of Kentucky whiskey, American beer and California wine are now empty. The LCOBO was doing a brisk business - good news for Canadian, French, Spanish, Australian, Chilean. Sucks for Kentucky and California.

If you're wondering about the vibe in Canada right now, I just got served this ad for a brewhouse that is just a portrait of the White House being burned down. No text, just a bigass picture of the White House burning and a link directly to their menu lolol

thank you duckduckgo

I knew this would happen, but it's still surreal to hear another nation's leader talk to us in a televised address the way US presidents have historically spoken to the citizens of countries led by dictators and despots.

Damn that’s crazy Tommy. Btw what state does The Girls’ Team Of All Boys play in, what sport do they play, how come I haven’t seen a billion stories about it after conservative media outlets covered the one (1) allegedly trans volleyball player like she was LeBron and Jordan combined

This is a lie. It's so funny that these men who hate women and women's sports act like other cis men have some kind of wild desire win at women's sports, the thing they degrade and lie about whenever they get the chance. Every piece of this is so warped.

Anson Carter wins for Best Dressed #PWHL #WoHo

In London metro

Mike Myers, Canadian legend, on SNL tonight.

The fact that the USA has banned visas for trans people but welcomed rapist Andrew Tate shows how all this "defending women" stuff is total bullshit

Voting day in Ontario. Get out and vote! Let's not sleepwalk into another Doug term.

Last provincial election, only 18% of registered voters in Ontario voted for premier Ford. Get out in that snow, trudge through that slush and vote today. Help stop the waves of conservatives who are gutting our country of everything we say we stand for.

My honest opinion of the Liberal Party Leadership race, which has smart people, is that this isn’t a leadership race anymore. Carney has established himself as the candidate capable of defeating Poilievre and then contending with Trump. Others are trying out for key cabinet roles on #TeamCanada.

You first.

Agree.

Let's be very clear that Pete Hegseth absolutely has his job because he is a white man.

let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”

Canadians on here actually being like "I can't believe how bad things are getting in the US" without acknowledging Alberta just passed some of the harshest anti-LGBTQ+ laws and are about to vote Doug Ford back into power. Wakeup because the far right are in inside the building

Normalize calling Republicans Nazis.

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

Horrifying Canadian higher ed news: York University, one of the country’s major R1s, is apparently suspending admission to a number of key programs (including GWS, languages, classics, and enviro biology)—very likely auguring cuts. This appears to be straight out of the West Virginia playbook.

The Sceptres have all the help they need: defector.com/the-sceptres...

going on-record like this is pretty brave imo www.youtube.com/watch?v=wT4u...

Protests beget more protests as people see that its ok to express frustration openly.

I've been able to brush off most of the erasure of trans people from government websites, but this one is REALLY getting under my skin. It's just complete revisionist history. How fucking dare they Old vs. new

The National Park Service has removed "T" and all mention of transgender people from the Stonewall National Monument. Trans women were some of the most influential activists behind the Stonewall movement and what followed. 3 articles of clothing laws were why raids happened. Erasure.

Separating responsibility from masculinity has been so destructive. Healthy masculinity is about being strong enough to care about, and for, other people.

A Bluesky tag at the Toronto Sceptres game last night!

RENATA FAST CALLS GAME! 😲 In an epic finish, her goal secures @pwhlsceptres.bsky.social's first OT victory this season.

Here it is in a nutshell: 1. Trump is an authoritarian. 2. With the GOP controlling Congress, courts are key to protecting democracy. 3. So far, courts are doing a good job on #2. 4. GOP will next attack election rules like they did in 2021. Don't let the cynics convince you not to fight. FIGHT!

Liberal Progress vs Pierre Poilievre

I feel compelled to re-up this today: There is no scientific data to support transgender bans. The cruelty is the point. www.usatoday.com/story/sports...

"The extent to which the United States is embroiled in a major political crisis would be obvious and apparent if these events were unfolding in another country."

"”The start of a tariff war with the US is changing voters' moods. It's harder to talk about a broken Canada when there's a growing sense of patriotism," another Conservative source said.” Hunh. Who would’ve guessed the CPC would be frustrated by Canadian patriotism.

The tariff threat has passed for now, but living next to Donald Trump is a Canadian crisis, and it might be making us realize that this beat-up, imperfect country is damned well worth fighting for. Because it sure as hell is. www.thestar.com/politics/fed...

"Fentanyl" re Canada = "Weapons of Mass Destruction" re Iraq = Manufacturing consent of the American people via lies. Please, Canadian media, stop mentioning it without analysis and basic fact checking. #cdnpoli #cdnmedia

Last year, law enforcement intercepted about 19 kilograms of fentanyl at the US-Canada border. At the southern border, agents seized 9,600 kilograms. The idea that Canada is a major source of drugs is a lie, and this admin is hoping you’re stupid enough to believe it.
