If I was an ally of the United States right now - I would be really examining the relationship. Particularly countries that depend on US defence, could now have to worry about a shakedown from the USA when they need them to help. In diplomacy, reliability is the most important currency.

How bad does your account have to be to get banned under Elon’s reign? The platform has loosened its moderation policies so much that getting suspended now seems almost impossible. But here's Tim Thielmann and Ian Ward. DAMN.

NEW - Finance min Brenda Bailey says B.C. has cancelled affordability rebate promised in NDP elxn platform. “It’s no longer the right time to make a new big expenditure.” Says “impossible to predict” US tariff situation for March 3 budget. “We are hoping for the best but planning for the worst.”

Why is the @bcspca.bsky.social selling these pins in their thrift shop? I asked them in person 1 week ago and they laughed it off. I’m back in the store and they are still for sale.

This is what holistic safety and wellbeing looks like. Our city-funded bike valet has drastically reduced bike thefts, and therefore costs and safety concerns for riders. www.timescolonist.com/local-news/b...

Let’s put into perspective how much Kendrick has murdered Drake’s career. He’s touring arenas in Australia and New Zealand right now to avoid the Grammy awards and the Super Bowl.

I love CBC. Truly — and I'll fight to the death to keep it. But this week of all weeks, if I turn on the radio one more time and hear some interview with a washed-up playwright about the tulips they planted in '82 I will throw my radio, and then myself, into the sea.

This is so good.

"Let's not lose track of the fact that this was never about fentanyl" - David Eby

Costco & Amazon - cancelling your memberships to both are two very easy and visible ways you can show solidarity with Canadian businesses. If their bottom line is affected then they will make big changes quickly.

@bctransit.com this would be a great time to start using this account :)

Surprisingly powerful speech from Trudeau. Only silver lining I can see from this absurd bullying and chaos is the prospects of pulling the country together, along with undercutting the momentum and rationale for the Conservatives.

MFer I grew up before NAFTA. I didn't have an avocado until I was 15 years old. I ate lunch in a Zellers cafeteria. I thought Robin Hood was just a guy who made flour. I was made for this moment.

Canada’s so united at the moment there’s even snow in Victoria. #cdnpoli

Does the United States Congress even matter anymore?

It’s time for Canadians to drop their Amazon memberships, stop shopping at Costco, Wal-Mart m, Starbucks etc.. and fight against this madness.

do you have any idea just how badly you have to fuck up to get Canada mad at you

If any of this BS was actually about fentanyl, the US could propose a joint partnership that no one would be opposed to Trump invokes “tariffs” as a rhetorical device, not as an economic tool, because he wants his supporters to see him as someone who strongarms others into giving him what he wants

Kid: “I took some pictures of the snow with this old fashioned camera!” The camera in question, 12MP digicam

I'd love to connect with someone at Point Hope Shipyard about photographing some of their work. Do I have anyone in my circles that works there?

Get in, friends.

I ended up at the blues jam on Sunday at Wicket Hall. It was lots of fun hearing everyone play but also seeing all the blues and swing dancers it attracted. Can’t wait to go back! #yyjmusic

I was up at 4am with both my kids so we went for a walk and watched the sunrise along the Gorge waterway. The water was like glass and gave a near perfect reflection of the skyline.

I’m starting to think way too many people were cheering for the Empire in Star Wars.

preceding post is a warning for after I become King. all your franchises are going away. you get one sequel that's it. then you have to actually come up with a new fuckin idea. no more ten trillionth batman reboot. new ideas or kick rocks

Tim Walz needs a podcast to help get us through the next 4 years. Do you agree?
