So Business Insider, The Conversation & Forbes all have articles about Canadians boycotting travel to the US You know what all three didn’t mention? Trump’s threats to annex Canada. They frame it as a ‘trade dispute’, tariffs Do better, cowardly media. Tariffs are the means to an end #ElbowsUp 🇨🇦✊

In Tottenham, UK. I read that it was crowd funded.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

“the future of cars”

Today Donald Trump attacked me by name in a speech at the Department of Justice. Of course I am worried, but courage comes from acting in spite of being worried. I have made my choice: I will continue to speak out, I will continue to litigate, I will continue to stand tall. I will never bow down.

@normeisen.bsky.social, @weissmann11.bsky.social, and @marcelias.bsky.social must be doing something right to get under Trump’s skin. I am proud to know them all. They each have more integrity and legal talent in their fingernails than all of Trump’s doj appointees put together.

We won’t forget. #FAFO #SheShed

The first rule in fighting tyranny is to never capitulate in advance. You broke that rule. You are not up to the moment as a leader.

[if Chuck Schumer replaced Liam Neeson in Taken] CHUCK SCHUMER: [on phone] I don’t know who you are or what you want, but I will find you and I will help you kill my daughter

Resign

I’m calling for new leadership in the Democratic Party. So many democrats want to do the right thing, but leadership is stopping them with the unspoken threat of refusing to give them leadership positions down the road. NEW DEM LEADERSHIP NOW!! #NewDemLeadership

Chuck Schumer says he has achieved peace in our time

Can’t thank the Americans enough that are speaking out against Trump!! Brovo👏👏👏👏👏👏

For the democrats saying “we can’t let the govt shut down” you’ve already lost. It’s not on you. Republicans control everything, didn’t come to you for anything except your vote. Where else can you force changes? You can’t… you’re a willing participant in Republican majority

I can't sign, but maybe some of my Canadian friends on here can, and help pass it along as well. Let Elon know he's not wanted anywhere!

#RepJohnLarson does a masterful job here ripping his GOP colleagues on their support for destroying Medicaid, and moving all government services toward full privatization. #ElonMusk #neoliberalism youtu.be/4WmWZ0pZpyQ?...

Fetterman is just a worse dressed Sinema. And that’s hard to do.

I don’t buy much from the US, iPhones and Levi’s. If I lose weight I can get back into old Levi’s for the next four years. Some small food things I can now dodge. Gradually easing out US podcasts and finding UK, NZ and Canada ones instead. We can all cancel one US thing.

Americans: We’d like to afford basic necessities, keep vital programs, and not lose our retirement savings. Trump: Best I can do is a car commercial for the richest man on Earth.

JD Vance says Canada should spare him our "sob story" about being good allies. We sent so many young Canadians into Afghanistan to help the United States in THEIR war. A war THEY lost. We paid a huge price and will never forget the sacrifice. J. D. can go lie on his couch. Canada is #elbowsup

This country’s founders knew that “treason” was a claim so vulnerable to abuse that they took the trouble to define it narrowly in the constitution: “Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.” /1

The department store chain, founded in 1670, can't pay its debts and says the pandemic, inflation and now trade tensions have hurt its financial future.

To my American friends who are surprised we are so freaked out by the USA: think about your reaction to the Soviet expansion of the 50’s and 60’s: a 50 year freak called the Cold War. Yes, like that. Exactly like that. 🇨🇦

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau. For your hard work, for your leadership, and for your great service to our country.

Breaking News: Mark Carney, a banker, will replace Justin Trudeau as Canada’s Liberal Party leader and the country’s prime minister. The party chose him to take on President Trump amid a generational crisis in Canada’s relationship with the U.S. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/09/w...

Mark Carney wins the Liberal leadership race with 85.9%!

Campbells Soup is trying to pull a fast one. Their soup hasn't been made in Canada since 2018, but they have printed a Maple Leaf on the label, representing it is. The Maple Leaf is not an official Canada label. This is a marketing ploy! Beware!

Is there a reason why Danielle Smith is traveling to Florida on taxpayers’ dime to participate in a far-right talk show that routinely has its content removed for hate speech? www.forbes.com/sites/antoni... #ableg
