El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

My 🇨🇦 is diverse. My 🇨🇦 is inclusive. My 🇨🇦 is welcoming. My 🇨🇦 is supportive. My 🇨🇦 is kind. ❤️

Trans people need more support than ever. There's no such thing as a silent ally. #protecttranskids #RealMamaBears #youareloved #transgender #beyou #MomsForEquality #mamabear

Here you go. Come to Canada, where healthcare is healthcare. Forget about gunshot wounds and insurance papers. Practice in communities coast to coast where doctors and healthcare workers are needed and you will be welcomed.

This means nothing. Useless. Empty words, zero action. Boycott his events. Refuse to cover his photo ops and propaganda signings. He’s addicted to coverage and hates being ignored. Until you band together and do something, these statements are utterly pointless & pathetic.

The 50501 Movement has planned protests at all 50 state capitols and the U.S. Capitol on Presidents’ Day at noon. While mainstream media isn’t covering it, many YouTubers have stepped up to provide coverage.

1 acre wide flag on lake www.castanet.net/news/Kelowna... This is fantastic! 🇨🇦

This speech was so encouraging to hear. Thank you, from 🇨🇦 AND for our neighbours to the south.

The best evidence that buying the press pays off.

I wonder if Musk hates Canada, & Trudeau, ‘cos Trudeau’s dad, also Prime Minister, called South Africa out for Apartheid in 1981 & threw our doors open for immigrants. When Trudeau died, I had a Black South African cabbie who had been crying & said he’d always thought PET was a friend to them.

🚩: A billionaire or a tech bro thinks it’s good. We need to oppose this and call out any politician that’s trying to toe the ‘Build Canada’ line.

This photo + the comments = best start to the day

Please sign. And if you already have, thank you. ❤️🇨🇦

Love this!

Canada is ready. We will fight. I thank the Prime Minister for his powerful statement in response to the thuggish attacks by Trump. We are unified as a nation. Our American cousins are divided. We will kick at the darkness until it bleeds daylight. www.thestar.com/politics/fed...

I’m honoured to add my signature.

So true!

I don’t understand why older voters get mad when we say leaders should stop being in their fucking 80s. The people in charge don’t understand hacking, web security, crypto, climate science, green energy technology, and more. THESE are the things shaping the future. They’re DUPED by tech bros.

Massive rally in Berlin against against far-right fascism. 🙌🙏💪👏👊👇

Thousands in Germany have taken the streets protest the rise of the Elon Musk and Kremlin supported neo-Nazi party AfD, ahead of the general election.

Love this!

“Deport them all”, “White lives matter”: messages on signs in St. Albert this weekend held by losers making N*zi salutes. Don’t minimize this, Alberta. Call this shit out. Every time you see it. That means our political leaders too. I’m looking at you, Danielle Smith.

❤️🇨🇦❤️

Donald, you stood at the inauguration with a man who gave a Nazi salute. You should be ashamed of yourself. For all the people who suffered under the Nazis, for all the veterans who stood up and fought to make people free. And you stand with Elon Musk? Disgraceful. www.youtube.com/watch?time_c...

Dung beetles use the Milky Way to navigate. I use hope and pure luck.

A big misconception about Greenland is that since it’s labeled a Danish colony, its residents are just a bunch of white dudes named Kristian—which is extremely harmful and inaccurate. The population is 85% Indigenous! It belongs to the Kalaallit people, not to Denmark and CERTAINLY not to the U.S.

NOW: More than 98% of #Costco shareholders have just rejected an anti-DEI measure The attempt to force Costco to audit their #DEI work was by an anti-inclusion lobby group: "The proponent's broader agenda is not reducing risk for the Company but abolition of diversity initiatives." - Costco Board

Thank you! I’m sending one from Kelowna, Canada.

Agreed!!!

Very confused by the sudden followers. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Tried to follow back if you’re human and seem interesting. I’m mainly here to read what everyone else writes. I’ll rarely post. I’m a sucker for a 🧵.

It’s time to bring out the trusty old ad from the 1990s my generation loved so much. We’re Canadian. We love being Canadian.

Growing up we were never taught the real history of our land. We weren't told about the struggle to bring forward justice and rights. The reality is that the oligarchs have given us fuck all. What we have, people fought for. And they often paid a heavy price. That is a legacy worth defending.
