Freeland: Anyone who needs to fill their car up with gas is going to be hit. You are going to be putting tariffs, a tax on the oil and gas and electricity that we sell you. Totally absurd.

Trump and Musk share a vested interest in Ukraineā€™s precious metals, including titanium, lithium, and rare earth elementsā€”critical for defense, aerospace, and EV industries. Securing control over these resources strengthens geopolitical influence and reshapes global supply chains.

The upcoming election in Canada could not be more consequential for our country. One thing for sure. Poilievre would sell us out to his right wing buddies in the US. We need a Prime Minister that will fight for Canada and Canadians.

I will keep repeating it. Elon Musk is the most dangerous man in the United States. He is a clear and present danger to every American citizen. What he's doing will make you sicker, more exposed to extreme weather, and more likely to die. He is a dire threat to your life.

Dusting off my old Oxford English Dictionary and consulting carefully, I could not find "attack friends and submit to enemies" as a definition of the word "strength."

That press conference was the most disgraceful act of betrayal Iā€™ve ever seen.

Zelenskyy is what courage looks like in these times. This is what it is to resist Donald Trump. Trump has no place as part of the next G7 meeting in Canada.

Slava Ukraini šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡¦

Make no mistake: Ukraine is leading the fight for democracy. A just and lasting peace requires Ukraine to be at the negotiating table, and its victory will make all of us safer. Ukraine must win. Putin must lose. Slava Ukraini.

The disgraceful behaviour in the White House is not about Trump or Vance. It is about the complicity of the entire political class of the United States and the American media. It is about the very soul of America. They either stand up for democracy or they stand for tyranny. The world is watching.

If the SCC can come to this (obvious) conclusion, I wonder when most of Canada's politicians and journalists will. 'X' is not a conduit to disseminating truth or creating reasonable discourse, it's a profit-making cesspool of disinformation for Elon Musk. If you're on it, you're part of the problem.

Doug Ford celebrates majority win by demolishing closest hospital

Well, on the bright sideā€¦ If you subtract the $200 cheques the private Ontario Place spa only cost us $200 each.

The Supreme Court of Canada is ditching its "X" account. www.ctvnews.ca/sci-tech/art...

I think we'd be served OK with either Freeland or Carney as leader. I hope whoever wins will involve the other with the path forward.

Doug Ford needs to cancel Ontarioā€™s contract with Starlink now. Absolutely solidarity with Ukraine but also to avoid it being used as a bargaining chip by Musk and Trump against Canada. Right now, Premier Ford.

Since Jan 6 our world has turned upside down. Canada is under threat like never before. There are still 8 months left in this parliament. We can put aside our fights and come together for Canada. These are my thoughts on how normal politics is no more. charlieangus.substack.com/p/no-return-...

Canadians, I just heard a preview of today's Cross Country Checkup show. Among the guests giving perspectives is Kevin O'Leary, that traitorous scumbag who wants to give Canada to the US. Write in protest to get this show cancelled. [email protected] [email protected]

You're in the business of communication so if there's a gap, your audience isn't to blame (as you imply). Problem is there's no way to turn annexation into a polite radio chat. There's no "just asking questions" on a threat of war. You're doing the authoritarian's work for him and we can see it.

If you want to share your concerns with CBC about the ā€œ51st stateā€ Cross-country Eff-up, Iā€™m told the emails to use are [email protected] and [email protected] for the ombudsperson and editor in chief respectively

Donald Trump says Canada has no right to exist. I take the threat seriously. With our sovereignty on the table I support a national discussion on next steps. But CBC thinks it would be fun to have an American DJ co-host whether we should exist as a nation. Fuck that @ianhanomansing.bsky.social

Starlink, Space X, Tesla and X are both economic and political vehicles created not just to enrich but empower their owner. He is an ignorant, racist, rogue, narcissist who supports America's enemies and an anti-democratic, white supremacist agenda. Supporting those companies in any way at all...

Elon Musk is a bandit. And Doug Ford just signed $100 million deal with him. Meanwhile he and Trump are trying to crush the people of Ukraine. Doug Ford says it's the "best bang for the buck." No Doug, this is what vichy collaborators do. Slava Ukraini

This evening, Iā€™m voting in an advance poll. Iā€™m doing my part to get rid of Doug Ford in Ontario. Exercise your right to vote. I donā€™t want to hear anyone complain about the government if they couldnā€™t be bothered to vote.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

It matters that scientists speak out against what is being done to US science. Staying silent is neither "objective" nor "staying out of politics". Silence now *is* political - it supports the status quo, says "nothing to worry about". We need to sound the alarm. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Donald Trump is threatening our democratic right and values. The boycott grows and goes international. Everyone can play their part.

I have been pushing Elections Canada to take steps to protect our democracy from American/Musk interference. We have only to look at Germany to see how the Trump machine will undermine democracay to promote the far right. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

Living under the rule of a narcissistic megalomaniac who fancies himself a king requires vigilance, resilience, and unity. Citizens must navigate the delicate line between resistance and self-preservation, safeguarding truth and liberty beneath the shadow of tyranny.

I entered this race because Iā€™m ready to get Canadaā€™s economy back on track ā€” to make us the strongest economy in the G7. Today, I shared my plan to do that: Spend less, invest more. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMmF...

75 years of diplomacy, hard work and a commitment to liberal democracy has just been flushed down the toilet by Trump, Vance and their MAGA idiots. Here is my final dispatch from the NATO meetings: Where Canada and Europe goes from here. substack.com/home/post/p-...

The boycott is working on both sides of the border. Keep it up. Do not bend to the oligarchs.

We are approaching a time of testing--not just for the country but for each and every one of us. That's the subject of my latest "Need to Know" Substack. Please read and share. open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...

The new world order is exactly what it looks like. Are we too frozen with fear to name it? | Zoe Williams

Know why you only see movies about dystopias after the dystopias are up and running? Because the beginning is not entertaining. I am an authority on this. So are you.

Massive protests in the US as the country faces an ongoing coup dā€™Ć©tat by the Trump regime and his oligarch cabal headed by Musk. Countless people are standing up to fascism proving the US will not go quietly. #3E #USprotests #fiftyfiftyone #Feb17 (šŸŽ„ @vuralelibol.bsky.social )

Oligarch owned media will downplay any protest or movement it sees as hostile and try to control the narrative or scope of your goals. This is a tired tactic. They claim thousands are hundreds and call you mere ā€œanti-Trump criticsā€. Donā€™t let that discourage you, your voices are louder. #3E

Canada, Greenland, Denmark, Panama, and Gaza could not immediately be reached for comment

I am at the NATO meetings in Brussels. Trump and Putin are plunging the world into dark chaos. Here is my dispatch from day one of the meetings. I decided that it was time to go over the boards for Canada. Please read and share. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Your good new story for the day. I just received a message from a landlord in Florida. He has lost over $30,000 in rentals since Canadians began the boycott. Canadians are doing their part. LET'S TAKE THE BOYCOTT INTERNATIONAL. We invite allied nations to boycott all things American.

One of Canadaā€™s sagest public figures, Bob Rae is absolutely correct. We are now in the fight of our lives, and not just Canada. Whatā€™s left of the free world.

American institutionsā€”from the media to Congressā€”continue to underreact to the unraveling of our democracy. Overseas our media would not hesitate to call what weā€™re living through a full-blown autocratic coup. Here's my attempt at the story they should write: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-trump...

Canada has never been more united
