There are more people in California (just one state of the entire US) than the entire country of Canada. If we can stand up to the school yard bully, then so can you!

Overwhelming majority of Canadian citizens have no interest in becoming members of the United States. Musing about the USA committing war crimes against Canada isn’t a ‘fun thought experiment’.

We're tired after everything that's transpired in the last month & we know that we're not alone. Please give people the opportunity to process everything in their own way & be respectful. We want to say thank you for doing what you can & that it's okay to take breaks. How's everyone doing? 💙

Someone is hellbent on poking all the bears as fast as possible. Can only assume an excuse to declare martial law is the endgame. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Starting trade wars to make it easier to take over the government was literally the plot to the Star Wars prequels.

Billy got snowpants! Our boy has sensitive feet that don’t do well with salty city sidewalks. Today was his first time trying them on. A few sessions and generous helpings of treats should help him adjust. Big sister is pretty much a furry snowplow. No winter attire necessary. #dogsofbluesky

“First we mourn. Then we work for change." December 6 is the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. Remembering the 14 women killed at L'Ecole Polytechnique. Most of these women were engineering students preparing for graduation. As a woman and an engineer I miss them.

Wasn’t sure what to expect from a liqueur whose tasting notes spoke of “electric blue freezie”. Happy to say that snozzberries are delicious! #adventcalendar #sonsofvancouver

A lot of nostalgia for old typewriters seems to centre around famous writers, but I love them more for their history as machines used primarily by women, mostly working as secretaries. #typewriter #oldtechnology

Introduce yourself with your worst feedback from school: I’m Renee and I’m a complete idiot for wearing a dress to mechanical engineering lab. Class had no safety related clothing requirements, just a TA (she/her sadly) who considered looking ‘girlie’ while training to be an engineer to be wrong.

My fellow Canadians… Voting is open to choose a name for our new lunar rover! Am a smidge disappointed Canadian Space Agency didn’t have ‘Rovey Mac Roverface’ among the options, but am sure whatever name does win this plucky little bot will do us proud. www.asc-csa.gc.ca/eng/astronom...

Happy ISS launch day! This is why much of the International Space Station was built on 486 computer era technology. Only well established tech should go to space.

Messy middle. Trying to find the balance between silly and looking like I have no idea what I’m doing. Story of my life.
