Canadians across the country are rallying behind a petition to revoke Elon Musk's citizenship. He wasn't born in Canada. He represents profoundly anti-democratic values. In Canada citizens can present these petitions to Canada’s parliament. I support them. charlieangus.substack.com/p/musk-doesn...

"It's almost impossible to believe he exists. It's as if you took everything that was bad about America, scraped it off the floor, put it in an old hot dog skin & taught it to make noises with its mouth" #PRESIDEMENTIA

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."

We kicked holocaust denier Ernst ZĂĽndel out of Canada. Why the hell would we let Elon Musk have any claim on Canada? He is a fascist threatening the people of Ukraine. I am proud to be helping drive this asshole from our shores. www.ctvnews.ca/canada/artic...

Well, the facts ARE pretty clear. #climatechange

All the media outlets treating Trump's threats to annex Canada like a fun thought experiment is a great example of my belief that many people covering politics think politics are a sport where every outcome is just a different jersey, rather than serious issues that affect real people.

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

Already left X. Don't understand why Legault would sign a deal with Starlink at a time like this. Divest from everything Musk and keep him the hell out of Canada. And burn your fucking Cybertruck. It's ugly and it has no traction.

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

Attention birdwatchers! - When you see a rare bird that’s far off its course just know you are looking at the dumbest individual from that species

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...

Canadians never bend in the face of tyranny. This is our story as a nation, and I am so proud to be part of that story today. Across Canada and the United States the resistance will come from ordinary people. Keep kicking at the darkness until it bleeds daylight. www.youtube.com/watch?v=es5q...

Climate change is real. There are only three options: 1. Reduce climate-damaging pollution 2. Adapt to unavoidable climate impacts 3. Suffer. By denying and misrepresenting the science and by cutting science and disaster funds, Trump and the Republicans have chosen the third option.

Trump did not even acknowledge a hockey game was played today and those goofs (including Matthews) who called it an “honor” to receive his call were discarded as soon as they didn’t win.

Go to sleep to news that one of them was wielding a chainsaw on stage, wake up to news that one of them did yet another Sieg Heil on stage, at what point do people with the power to do something start treating them like they actually believe in the things they're very clearly saying and doing

Bullshit euphemisms. "questionable salute" "controversial salute" "provocative gesture" Say it. These are Nazi salutes. Why did Bannon seig heil? Because he's a Nazi and because the press let Musk get away with the same thing by not calling it what it is. www.thedailybeast.com/bannon-does-...

Trump’s vicious attack on President Zelenskyy is an attack on democracy. Zelenskyy has shown the world what heroism.Trump is a convicted pervert and felon. Trump and Putin are gangsters. We are now in a global fight to defend the democratic order. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRsf...

The 10 percent? Please just move, you traitors. GTF OUT!

If Hangman would have always listened to veterans, he’d never be who he is. Veterans are important, but when you do something original and novel, you have to break away from traditions. Same for the Bucks and Kenny. You don’t get them following conventional wisdom. Same for Toni. Harley, etc

Very grateful I have lived a full life in a peaceful time. My condolences to the younger than I to be in such a troubled time with your lives fully in front of you. I will be fine. I am satisfied. But genuinely worried for you all. 51st state means tanks and bombs and bending the knee. Peace.

I have been pushing Elections Canada to take steps to protect our democracy from American/Musk interference. We have only to look at Germany to see how the Trump machine will undermine democracay to promote the far right. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

Don't think single people get enough credit for doing life alone. Rent/mortgage is double, household responsibility and life admin is down to one person, you're your own emotional support, holidays are more expensive, you've to trap and transport human sacrifices for the solstice bonfire solo, etc.

That would, of course, depend on how many dead Canadians there were, but sure haha.

The opposite of DEI is NOT "color-blind, hire-the-best-qualified." It's "continue to hire the incompetent white male just because he's a white male." And the entire Trump administration proves that point.

A teacher emailed me & said "My scientist didn't reply to me. My scientists ALWAYS reply to me! What the heck!". I was like "Well. Science is kinda crumbling. Friends/colleagues are losing their jobs or at least funding, & some are being told to cease all outside communications". She hadn't heard.

"A war criminal and a convicted felon are deciding the future of Ukraine. If we are silent in allowing Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin to carve up Ukraine it is a repeat of Munich 1938. We cannot allow this to happen.” - Charlie Angus, NATO meetings Brussels www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_hq...

The boycott is Canada's first line of defence in a long and hard fight against gangsters and fascists. When American politicians see the mounting job losses they will start getting rattled. My message to the world is to join the boycott of all things American. No pasaran. Canada #strongasfuck

75 years of diplomacy, hard work and a commitment to liberal democracy has just been flushed down the toilet by Trump, Vance and their MAGA idiots. Here is my final dispatch from the NATO meetings: Where Canada and Europe goes from here. substack.com/home/post/p-...

I’m okay with being a “loner” and having a small circle. I enjoy my own company and I only want to be around people that genuinely enjoy being with me.

The day will come where Uno contacts a big name to come in and they demand to have a silly little match with me. My bets are on it being Ospreay

We’ve got a new paper out today about hummingbirds and game theory. One of my co-authors, @kevinzollman.com, has written a very nice explainer thread here. 🪶

At the NATO meeting a loud US republican saw my CDN flag pin on my lapel and reached for it saying, "Hey Canada." I stopped him. "Don't touch the Canadian flag." "Just joking," he said. "You'll die before you touch our flag," I said, "not joking." He scrambled out of there. #notfuckingaround

Remember Doug allowed his associate Minister to deliver the message about the future for women in Ontario #onpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

We do have to also consider that the American players do understand completely and think they have every right to invade Canada.

A message to my peers: The day is coming when you are going to have to answer to your conscience; not your wallet. Don’t miss that moment. History will not be kind.

A Canadian NHL hockey player looks at his American teammate and is forced to live with “this guy wants my country to be invaded.” We got a real problem here that we are truly still ignoring.

So the threat of annexation motivates Team USA and American players, but when it’s Pride Night or booing the American anthem, we're told to keep politics out of hockey… www.thedailybeast.com/us-hockey-te...

So Bill Guerin and all of USA Hockey can eat literal shit forever www.thedailybeast.com/us-hockey-te...

We are totally inspired by the idea of invading, subjugating, and killing you, but nooooo don't boo our special song :(
