Walking down the street this morning when a black SUV screeched to a halt beside me. The back doors flew open & a person in head to to black popped out. My brain was all “What is happening?!” I have watched too many movies. It was the kitchen staff at the restaurant I was next to, coming to open 🤓

What he said ⤵️ #CanadiansDontPlay

Was chatting with my (American friend) who lives in the UK. We were talking about the recommendations for giving babies their first foods. I said ours were exclusively breastfed for six mos before they got Pablum & she asked me what that was. #TIL that Pablum is a #Canadian invention!

What a terrible day. I am mortified that people with absolutely no medical training think that they are able to legislate someone’s gender.

This, from someone who was compared to iceberg lettuce

The Federal Government just dropped this messaging. #ChooseCanada

As someone who is waaaaaay left of centre, I’m just gonna leave this here:

This aged badly

O’Leary is such a wingnut that PeePee seemed the more sane choice to the Cons. Dani Smith - even she is trying to bury her WildRose campaign platform. Scott Moe is no different except he wasn’t invited to sit with the cool kids on the bus…

In promotion of the #BuyCanadian movement & in keeping our collective #ElbowsUp, I’d like to encourage you to purchase from the originators of the brand/logo all the way from little Yarmouth NS

Canada is everything.

Those of us who prefer to #BuyCanadian or at least, #notAmerican have been sharing resources online. I have always gravitated toward French perfumes but am looking into more local brands:

History repeats itself. When will people learn??

Even when we are on social war footing, Canadians believe in the importance of being polite. Considerate shoppers make sure to spare the next shopper from having to determine if a product is from the USA.

Here is the speech I gave at the taste of Ramadan celebration in Mississauga. I speak of Canada's incredible diversity and our determination to defend our values and country. #elbowsup time for all Canadians. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzsw...

Can someone explain how not a single education program applies to Canadian workers in the same union? theedfund.org/education-an...

There is no shortage of good ideas for disentangling Canada from the U.S. and investing in more resilient alternatives. What all of these ideas have in common is a foundational belief in and commitment to the public interest. New from me: www.policyalternatives.ca/news-researc...

Another North American clean energy first for Canada. This one — gigantic wind turbines in Nova Scotia. @dariussnieckus.bsky.social reports www.nationalobserver.com/2025/03/04/n...

The USSA is no longer a democracy. I am the furthest thing from a conservative supporter, but this makes sense to do

The message hasn’t changed. Last time the USA picked a fight with us, we burned down the white house - don’t mess with Canadians.

A patient dropped these off for us today. So nice to be supported! #BreastCancer

Fantastic article from our friends down under. #BoycottUSA #TravelCanada
