If you're wondering about the vibe in Canada right now, I just got served this ad for a brewhouse that is just a portrait of the White House being burned down. No text, just a bigass picture of the White House burning and a link directly to their menu lolol

Easy to lose this in the noise of the day, but the prime minister of Canada just said the US president, leader of the global hegemon, wants to soften us up economically so he can annex us. That is one of the most remarkable statements, and realities, in our history.

If we're being honest, they absolutely could have used tariffs to drive wedges within Canada, across regional and political divides. But the approach they actually took, with no coherent demands or real off-ramps, basically forces us to band together and fight back.

trump take beer

Hahah my friend is making me watch the WWE pay per view, which is in Canada, and the crowd is absolutely booing the Star Spangled Banner into the ground. And then erupts for O Canada. My dad was like “Good for them. Good for them”

why the UP train so damn wobbly

To frame a discussion around the term “51st state” immediately cedes ground to Trump and his propaganda. That’s the whole issue here. People are not upset about the topic, they are upset at your choice of words. Call it “Trump’s threat to annex Canada” and not “51st state comments”.

The fascists were evil but also goofy the first time, too.

HELL YEAH BROTHERRRRRRRR

lmfao holy shit we're reaching new levels of "fuck the yanks"

Just a class act, fantastic video youtu.be/MBgXMLC3djc?...

CANADA SCORES!!!!!!!

time to open up the nightmare rectangle and get a recap of the day’s horrors and also like some photos of pets lookin cool

Yeah I’ve seen stuff like this as well. Trump’s annexation threats got through to a broad swath of Canadians, far beyond the typical too-online political types. Another example, I’ve witnessed multiple people being loudly annoyed about US products while shopping in the grocery store.

god help us

lmao, an absolute classic JJ moment right here

I wrote about Musk and this bureaucratic coup as plainly as I could. There's reporting in here & the particulars are overwhelming but what's happening is so clear: He's not trying to run the federal govt like a software company He's trying to turn it into a political weapon. (gift link)

Begging the American media to quickly figure this out and start yelling it loudly: HE WANTS TO ANNEX US. HE WANTS TO TAKE OVER THE COUNTRY. We are your most reliable ally and trade partner, and he wants to end our nation's existence. That's literally it, please start talking that way.

It is going to be much harder to negotiate a way out of this situation because unlike with Mexico, Trump's ultimate aim for us (which he isn't even hiding at this point) is annexation. The stakes are entirely different for Canada.

Canada is a country worth fighting for against anyone who’d roll up and sock us in the kisser, goddamn them. I will still stand up for my country and our right to decide for ourselves how we want to live. www.davidmoscrop.com/p/confession...

NEW: In response to Trump tariffs, Doug Ford statement: “Every year, @LCBO sells nearly $1B worth of American wine, beer, spirits and seltzers. Not anymore. Starting Tuesday, we’re removing American products from LCBO shelves.” #onpoli

We're in so much trouble and absolutely nobody knows what is coming next.

In a shocking turn of events, it turns out there was really no way to prevent the Trump tariffs. Those who engaged in ridiculous navel gazing and self-flagellation about how tariffs were somehow Canada's fault AND preventable - please jump into the nearest great lake and start swimming south.

Can’t be said enough: the right in Canada bleated on for years about patriotism & people not being proud of Canada, of wokeness, reconciliation, statue removal, etc as the problem. Then they are first to lay down in front of a foreign strongman who makes them half chub horny. It was all bullshit.

The recent CD Howe study arguing to push people out of big cities and into midsized cities had obvious, serious errors. Now it's been picked up by the most shameless anti-growther in Canadian media. vancouversun.com/opinion/colu...

We’re facing an existential threat to Canada that is unprecedented in modern history, and this dude can’t do anything except blather on about the carbon tax

It is darkly funny that Project 2025 (!) of all things says that the president should not impose tariffs, and that imposing them with be a net negative for America. static.project2025.org/2025_Mandate...

Fuck. This is so fucking stupid.

Toronto getting roasted on Rednote/ Xiaohongshu. The video description: "14年,成都沧桑巨变,多伦多反倒还少了条地铁" In 14 years, Chengdu massively changed, while Toronto lost a line.

Goddamn bike lanes

Happy Q1 2025 carbon rebate day
