How often does a rock concert stop to sing the national anthem? I’m not sure the orange blob realizes what he’s done. He’s turned our country into a family. ❤️🇨🇦 #CanadaProud #TrueNorth #StrongAndFree #IAmCanadian #WeAreFamily #WeAreCanadian #UnitedWeStand

Saw this on Reddit earlier and I couldn't get it to work. Then it was only for parks near the border. But yep, now it seems Google is listing provincial parks as state parks. I'm going to Hanlon's Razor (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanlon%...) this one for now but will be following up, for sure...

CBC trying to explain how a "conversation" about whether Canada has a right to exist as a nation will be good because they have asked an American DJ to co-host. Like asking Ukraine to join a "conversation" with Russia about their borders. But don't worry it will be done with "care."

This is how tomorrow’s planned Sunday Checkup on CBC, simulcast with NPR is being promoted in the U.S. “President Trump’s proposal”. And CBC is giving the whole idea merit by even agreeing to “discuss” it.

Apart from being a traitor to 🇨🇦Canada, piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre is a gutless little high school debating dweeb who’s afraid to speak with real journalists and answer their real questions.

A funny meme "to add some levity to a tense situation" as Adrienne Arsenault would say !

Brilliant front page

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

There is currently a petition in the House of Commons to revoke Elon Musks Canadian citizenship. 33000+ signatures so far: www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en... #Canada #cdnpoli

“The CBC shouldn’t ignore Donald Trump’s annexation threats, but as a foundational element of Canadian culture, they have a public responsibility to fight it with extreme prejudice at every opportunity they get.”

womp womp Here’s the Ontario version. Covid caused a lot of death that wouldn’t have happened otherwise

Albertans are slowly waking up to the depths of the scandal enveloping the UCP government. A lot of folks are wondering how to explain what's going on to people who haven't been tuning in. Here's the what, so what now what, and what's next of the situation. 🧵

“A reminder to believe nothing you see or hear on CBC.” Because if you did, they’d keep the power to hold Pierre to account for the things he says and does! And god forbid anyone does that!! Chickenshit, autocratic rhetoric from a guy who keeps boosting bootlicker media

Oh.

Please read my latest reflection. There are lies we tell to comfort ourselves. Like Democrats who say we just have to wait two year and Trump will lose control of the House. Like those in Germany who promoted Hitler while believing they could control him. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-reichs...

No wonder he doesn't want us getting vaccinated

Update on AB Billboard promoting Canada as 51st state: Reddit activists are contacting every business on Spot Ads' website and politely informing them what a piece of shit business they're associated with. One by one, these businesses are requesting to be disassociated from Spot Ads inc #abpoli

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

If you didn't know... • Exxon • Moulton/Coors • Walmart Have funded Heritage Foundation (#Project2025) for YEARS #Boycott

Hey @minibubbly.bsky.social , can you help get the word out to your Canadian followers? 👇🏼

@ianhanomansing.bsky.social & the CBC: Who is making you think this is the most responsible way to address a threat to Canada’s existence as we know it? Why are you not instead doing a show on the reality of what that might mean and all the reasons we DON’T want to be 51? My dudes 🤦🏼‍♀️.

Hello @eby-david.bsky.social , Starlink is not a partner we in BC should have on BC Ferries or anywhere else in Canada!

Well past time for BC Ferries to toss Starlink overboard. Deep-six the pilot program!

Another shakedown: U.S. negotiators pressing Kyiv for access to Ukraine's critical minerals have raised the possibility of cutting the country's access to Elon Musk's vital Starlink satellite internet system, three sources familiar with the matter told Reuters.

Canada can not rely on Starlink. What is the status of the deal in Ontario?

"What brought them to Ottawa in 2022 wasn’t love of their country but hatred of the government in charge of it, which helps explain the very conspicuous presence of American flags, Trump flags, and even Confederate and Nazi flags." #cdnpoli

"During the meeting, Ukraine was told it faced imminent shutoff of the Starlink service if it did not reach a deal on critical minerals, said the source, who requested anonymity to discuss closed negotiations." Astonishing betrayal of an ally. www.reuters.com/business/us-...

DITCH HIM 🇨🇦🇺🇸

This alone should be grounds for terminating Ontario’s contract with Starlink immediately.

No we ain't going anywhere. But if they need some players to help get them back on their feet after tackling Team Canada we might be willing to help. Maybe.

This is the guy Doug Ford wants to do business with via Starlink. With our money and our security at risk

Danielle Smith is tap dancing now, but Alberta Health Services’ scandal is not going away. Smith has tried to lay low but she has been forced to surface by relentless pressure from critics and supporters alike. #Opinion
