This is so so sad. Heartbreaking!

Can this be true? 👇

As the United States launches an imperialist trade war against Canada and Mexico, it’s time for countries to come together to form an alliance against the US — and that includes rapidly curtailing their dependence on Silicon Valley. The US can’t be allowed to get away with this.

"I'm burning America down and making it illegal for you to complain about it."

Trudeau: I want to speak first directly to the American people… your government has chosen to do this to you. Your government has chosen to put American jobs at risk. They have chosen to raise costs for American consumers on everyday essential items…

Wonderful ad!

I’m with Joe Walsh on this one.

I’ve been wanting this for so long!

HOLY SHIT!! Rep. Kamlager-Dove: “It is total corruption for an unelected unqualified billionaire like Elon Musk to…take control of our government to have access… of the information we use when we are trying to get a motherfucking tax return.”

This is worth watching for anyone needing an economics explanation with regards to our country vs the US!

🧪 If I were Canadian PM I would immediately: 1. Create a new $15B science fund 2. Offer any credentialed US scientist funding for lab startup and replacement of NIH grants if they move to Canada 3. Immediate permanent residency 4. Citizenship after 2 years Overnight a science superpower

The US has worked for decades to persuade Latin American countries to jettison deep local traditions of statism and protectionism. "Join the US-led world trade system! You'll be richer, freer. We won't abuse trade for crass political purposes. Trust us." They did. Whoops.

Wishing everyone everywhere peace and inspiration. Come what may, let us stand strong for all that is right and just. Let us defend those who are being mistreated, and live with kindness and respect as Martin Luther King hoped we would . Our task is clear. ❤️

Many were looking to access my recent Toronto Star piece - I've posted it here: www.climateandnature.com/media/opinio...

To be clear, the fight on climate isn't over whoever is in the White House or PM here. The climate crisis is only getting worse while the solutions are way cheaper & more accessible. The energy transition is inevitable - but speed & scale matters. Everyone who cares just has to keep on fighting. 💪

When making a MAGA cabinet, it's very important to strike a careful balance between billionaires, sex criminals, Russian assets, anti-vaxxers, and just plain unpleasant people.

All churches should be taxed. Repost if you agree.

MAGA’s embrace of RFK Jr’s “Make America Healthy Again” is so funny because these same people CRUCIFIED Michelle Obama for daring to suggest that American kids should have access to healthy lunches in school.

Well, this gets it exactly right, doesn’t it?
