Kevin O'Leary to @ianhanomansing.bsky.social on Cross Country Checkup, rough quote: "The Canadian dollar has dropped 40% against the US dollar under Trudeau." Fact check: the CAD has dropped 34% from the 2011 peak, but just 4% of that drop happened under Trudeau. The big drop happened under Harper.

Fucking hell. Ian Hanomansing just suggested people should "do fact checking online" after the program. This is journalistic malpractice. I can't. The only thing this broadcast has illuminated, information-wise, is Hanomansing's narcissism. #CrossCountryFuckup

I will forever support the existence of the CBC as it is an important tool for maintaining free press that supports the interest of Canada and Canadians. That being said, whoever planned and supported this whitewashing of Canada's annexation should be looking for employment elsewhere as of tomorrow.

obviously this is just my subjective experience, but i truly don't think Canadian politicians and media have caught up to how angry the country is. everyone i talk to wants Canadian unity and they want us to hit back at the Americans as hard as we can

Well, that sucked. That was absolutely terrible. This was terrible radio, atrocious journalism and I am stupider and madder for having listened to it. Cross-country Checkup is never very good but this really just take a new shit cake.

Why are they filling time with US streeters? Where are the Canadian streeters? Or did they know that they'd only get one opinion which would be "what the fuck are you asking me?"

I, personally, only want to hear from war criminals and Sharks Den hosts about the existential threat facing our country right now.

So Cross Country Check-up seems to think that people who were on their own TV show, who have no real loyalty to Canada because they're capitalists above and beyod everything else, are the experts to talk about US annexation? What a fucking joke.

David Frum has, more than nearly all other Canadians, done more to destroy Canada's sovereignty. He was one of the biggest pushers for free trade and for deep economic integration with the US. This guy has NOTHING CREDIBLE to say about US annexation, unless it's a mea culpa.

The media owes a duty first to truth, then discourse. I'm not sure it owes any duty to "debate", but if it does, the framing of that debate should be neither misleading nor stupid.

If you live in Ontario, a concrete thing you can do to protect Canadian interests from American encroachment or straight up invasion is to vote out Ford. He is on the record as happy that Trump was elected and has given $100 million contract to Elon Musk. Vote him out!

He is so stunningly, uniquely terrible at posting that it immediately stands out even in an offline context like this. The absolute worst to ever do it. In a category by himself. Singularly anti-talented in a way we will talk about for decades if not centuries. The Wayne Gretzky of bad posting.

Exactly. Musk is an evil, sociopathic piece of shit, to be sure, but he’s also bone-stupid. Extraordinarily dumb. Like Trump, his main superpower is shamelessness to an almost surreal level.
