No amount of executive orders can make us cease to exist.

Too mean? 🤷🏼‍♂️

When people see the maple leaf, they see possibility. They see freedom. They see a helping hand. They see Canada, and the best of our values. Happy 60th to our flag. 🇨🇦

Vladimir Putin, like Donald Trump, is a criminal. I truly support Volodymyr Zelenskyy not trusting either one of them.

"Canada has the longest total coastline in the world, therefore we are well within our rights to rename our major oceans. Henceforth, the Pacific Ocean will be known as Poutine Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean as Hockey Ocean, and the Arctic Ocean as the Gulf of Brian Adams." - PM Trudeau

On this day in 1965, the new Maple Leaf Flag was raised at Parliament Hill for the first time. But getting to that point was very difficult. It was a divisive debate to create the flag, that went on for months. Let's learn more about how Canada got its flag! 🧵1/16

I'm sharing an image a day to celebrate the vibrant and unique culture and history of Canada. Today, it is this image of a group of children getting ready to play hockey on an outdoor rink in 1956. #ProudlyCanadian 📸LAC 4948936

President Donald Trump’s newly announced tariffs — a blanket duty of 25% on all steel and aluminum imports — are expected to negatively affect the nation’s craft brewers by driving up the cost of critical materials used to brew, house and serve their beer.

Here’s an actual advertisement in Canada following Trump’s tariff threats.

Good morning, Bluesky💙🌞

A trade deficit is not a subsidy. It is a trade imbalance. It simply means you buy more from us than we buy from you. It is not loaned money or something owed. Yes, he is this dumb. What’s worse, he’s using nonsense to declare war on Canada. Call him stupid loudly. - A Canadian #USPolitics

PLEASE SHARE.

She speaks truth.

I think what’s most disappointing about the fall of America is how utterly easy it was. It wasn’t terorrists. It wasn’t espionage. It wasn’t WWIII. No. It was a bunch of barely legal edgelord dipshits lead by a Nazi-loving South African destroying our institutions.

A beautifully illustrated installment of Prince Valiant by Hal Foster from February 5, 1939. Well, they are all beautifully drawn, but this one especially so...

Andre Ill "Trey" Howard, 10, saved his younger sister from the plane crash in Philadelphia. While sitting in a car with her, the plane crashed nearby throwing debris everywhere. He yelled "get down" and grabbed her.

I am formally putting my name forward to be our nation's Canadian History Czar.
