Here's what we have to say to all the boneheaded buffoons who insist all Zelensky has to do for peace is accept whatever shit deal is thrown at him: All PUTIN has to do for peace is LEAVE UKRAINE.

Sharing a request from the Kitchen Table community of @moriartylab.bsky.social Dr.Tara needs time to care for herself, after spending four years taking care of #Canada Will you help or share? @dfisman.bsky.social @deonandan.bsky.social @nilikm.bsky.social @nicktsergas.ca @jvipondmd.bsky.social

@ianhanomansing.bsky.social YES!! This caller now, John from BC, finally saying it! That this is an illegal proposal and that it would only happen by force. That it’s outrageous to talk about it without talking about the aggression.

@ianhanomansing.bsky.social Kevin O’Leary is NOT a Canadian in any real way. He doesn’t live here!! He doesn’t have any govt role here. He’s not a political expert. He’s a TV personality! Why invite him on?? Why does his opinion matter?

The past ten years has just been the same clutch of morons and apologists insisting that Trump would never cross that line and then shuffling along with him to insist that he would never cross that next one.

Has Gretzky clarified which team he is cheering for tonight?

Canada beats Russia once again!! #Summit/FourNations

I hope people understand what we are seeing here. 1) Trump and Putin are preparing a common plan to dictate to Ukraine. 2) Ukraine will surprise them (at least Trump) by refusing. 3) The War will continue. 4) The role of Europe will be decisive.

Justin Trudeau has been a good prime minister. Not perfect. But he has been a steady hand during a tumultuous decade. He certainly does not deserve the hatred & vitriol directed at him. On the contrary, he deserves sincere thanks from a grateful nation for his honourable service.

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

But shall this crazed old man be tamely suffered to drag a whole ship’s company down to doom with him?

A fake billionaire is letting a fake genius destroy America because a bunch of fake patriots are too stupid, too entitled and too hateful to understand the difference between what is fake news and what is fact.

‘U. S. President Donald Trump’s tariff threats and talk about making Canada the 51st state have made Canadians angry — very angry…a whopping 68 per cent of Canadians surveyed think less of the United States as a country.’ globalnews.ca/news/1100688...

Absolutely spot on from Rory Stewart

Today Trump is targeting Canada and Mexico Yesterday he targeted Colombia. Tomorrow he’ll target the European Union He’s already musing about *invading* Greenland and Panama. Elon Musk is already interfering in British and German politics We should be building new alliances to stop Trump and Musk

Canada and Denmark share a 1.2 km long land border on Hans Island since we ended the Whisky War in 2022. So technically we could join the European Union.

A reminder - don't use Amazon, but go to bookshops, which play a far more vital role in promoting literacy just by simply making books more visible, and allow you to find things by chance rather than by what the algorithm decides.

The media called Musk's salute, which Neo Nazis celebrated, a "hand gesture." Why won't they acknowledge exactly what we all saw here? As someone who worked in national newsrooms for years, let me explain why the media is allergic to meeting the moment in times like this. youtu.be/D9UNmoFEtDQ

I really recommend watching this. This is the first time I have seen him outside of a Liberal/Financial/Academic setting and he has a personality! I think there is something to work with here in a general election. #cdnpoli
