MEUSER: You've got Trudeau saying how the president is making a dumb move. That's bad diplomacy. SANCHEZ: I'm not sure how it's good diplomacy to say that a neighboring country should be the 51st state and that you're gonna impose economic hardship to achieve that goal.

Canada is nothing like the US. Today proves it ... again! US: Trump ambushed a loyal ally, presumably so that he can soon make a deal with the dictator of Russia to sell out Ukraine. 😡 CANADA: Today Canada extends temporary visa application window for Ukrainians. 🍁💙💛 #CdnPoli #CanadaIsNotForSale

I voted. Did you, Ontario? If our voter turnout is less than 50% again, we all deserve whatever we get! Democracy is literally under threat right now, so if you haven’t already exercised your right to vote, do it before the polls close!

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I think what we're going to see is the conservative numbers in Canada drop because people are looking at the destruction that Trump is unleashing and Canadians are thinking, 'If this is what MAGA looks like, there's no damn way we're going to vote for it in Canada.'

We need to fight to save the CBC. Following in the footsteps of Elon Musk and Donald Trump, Pierre Poilievre plans to shut down the CBC and silence independent media if he wins the election. Let's fight back together. Sign up here to get started: forwardcanada.ca/protectcbc

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

If you're going to threaten Canada with tariffs under the pretence of a war on drugs by preventing 0.2% of fentanyl that comes into the country, it's likely best if you don't pardon the fella who oversaw the sale of hundreds of millions of $ in drug sales via the dark web.

Thank you @albertandp.ca for bringing science to the forefront. We've had enough of misinformation. And such a clever, interesting ad as well. Bravo. We need more of this. #scisky #science #cdnpoli #abpoli

MAGAs will pass “Stand Your Ground” laws to justify killing anyone who encroaches on their land & justify running over anyone standing in their way—then turn around & tell brown people suffering genocide they should succumb to those who committed genocide & leave their ancestral homes. Smh barbaric.

1. Forced displacement is ethnic cleansing, and a component of genocide. 2. Trump admits every building is leveled, which confirms once more Netanyahu committed war crimes with indiscriminate bombing. 3. The "US taking over Gaza" is a violation of international law This exactly is fascism in 2025.

#econsky The Truth About Fentanyl from Canada In 2023, U.S. CBP seized just 4 pounds (1.8 kg) at the U.S.-Canada border, less than 0.1% of the national total. I speculate #Trump may be using #bordertensions to extend the national emergency and bypass votes with executive orders.

Literally did a spit take as the CBC political correspondent speculated about cutting the power during the Super Bowl "so that suddenly New York and Michigan can't watch the Chiefs and the refs take on the Eagles."

🧪 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

We did not have a FAA administrator to respond to the tragic crash last night in DC. Why? Because Elon Musk pushed the head appointed under Biden to resign after he fined SpaceX for failing to follow safety license requirements. www.theverge.com/news/603113/...

just stumbled on a real jaw-dropper of a line in an essay -- “The corollary of being interested in a great range of things is to have sympathy with a great range of outlooks” -- and that, my friends, is why reading is so important.
