Ending the night with this. *Get your hankies* A D-Day veteran called a gracious and humbled Zelenskyy a hero.

I didn't think I could admire Zelenskyy more until today. There was only one world leader in that room.

We apologize to our Ukrainian supporters. We are embarrassed by how our president and vice president have behaved. We are fighting to redeem the soul of America. 🇺🇸

I'm surprised Trump's tone and approach aren't working better. I mean, it worked so well on a scripted and staged TV show designed to make him look like a genius...

The world has witnessed the most disgraceful political tantrum of all time. Trump is not the leader of the "free world." He is convicted felon who doesn't deserve to be in the same room as President Zelenskyy. There is no going along to get along with this thug. Canada needs to stand with Ukraine.

Anybody else watch the English Liberal Leadership debate? Honestly, I hope they are all on the team in some capacity after the vote. Baylis was the weakest IMO because I don't believe running a government like a business works but he made some good points. /1

Didn't listen to CCCU on #CBC. I have BP issues and needed to put health first. I assume it went well? BTW, Fuck O'Leary. Without even listening, I feel safe in that position.

Ok here you go. Here's what I wrote to the CBC Ombudsman. - As an award-winning Canadian journalist, I am writing to express my profound disappointment regarding the upcoming radio program hosted by Ian Hanomansing, which aims to discuss the idea of Canada becoming the USA's 51st state. 1/

CBC's Cross Country Checkup promises to foster discussion between Canadians who think we should become 51st state, and Canadians who think we should surrender to different countries

I'm not up on Ontario politics but is Doug Ford moving forward with starlink so that Elon can extort us for mineral resources in the future, like Ukraine now? And he still leads in the polls?

CBC: Trump wants to make us the 51st state. Call in. Let us know your thoughts. Canadians: WTAF? CBC: We heard your concerns. We’ve changed the topic. Canadians: We’re listening. CBC: Trump 𝓼𝓪𝔂𝓼 he wants to make us the 51st state. Call in. Let us know your thoughts. Canadians: WT… #Never51

Guarantee it was all part of the plan. Plant an obvious Con wolf in silicon...er...sheep's clothing. Break the rules. Get kicked out for it. Deny it and claim the Libs are dictators. Just watch. She will be a Con candidate crying about freedom next to PP within the next 3 months.

The green sign guys are out at Albert and Vic again #yqr. I gave them the finger. I'm not proud of it.

Should I spoil the ending? It's a manpower issue? Having hope that a building will solve a manpower issue isn't the inspiring position he hopes it is. Check out how the UCC in #yqr predictably cut back hours right after the election.
