Think about building a bomb shelter for the day Trudeau tweets "Ask your wife" at Donald Trump. Honestly, truly, I think there's like a 15% chance of that happening in the next month. The tweet, I mean.

Lots of thoughtful social media criticism of our question for Sunday's Checkup and we listened. The new question: what do you think of Trump's comments about Canada becoming the 51st state? The show's being simulcast on more than 100 NPR stations. It's a chance to make your voice heard.

20 years ago Vancouver might have had 10,000 pages of news in print per week (with dailies and weeklies). I’d be surprised if it’s 500 now.

PSA: ‘Emotional Support Animal’ scratches the same linguistic itch as ‘Spirit Animal’ without being weird and micro-agressy.

Under every post about a Trump threat is someone saying something like: ‘no chance, we’ve got the Commonwealth’. I can’t fathom the precise, niche level of awareness where you know of the Commonwealth, but think it’s a defence pact.

The thing about this video with Trudeau & Miller is that you know that no such video of Poilievre exists, or ever can exist. I'm a f*cking Indian, I have serious issues with this country, but I'll never hate it as much as PP does. This is home, and I can't hate someone who sees it the same way.

That game was so stressful, I went for a walk and listened to it on YouTube. I was walking past my grandpa's grave when they scored (no profound reason - it's on the way to Church's). Funny coincidence... unless they lost, then it'd be a curse I'd tell grandkids about. #FourNations

This statue? Instillation? This massive Native art piece down at 1133 Melville here in Vancouver, blew me away. It’s the globe eye that does it.

When Tories are asked about Trump and what they’ll do to fight back - they’re split down the middle. Imagine if Canada were in a fight with China or Iran and NDP poll numbers look like Tory numbers do right now. www.ekospolitics.com/index.php/20...

In November Poilievre smugly dismissed trade diversification away from the US as a ‘fantasy’. If the coach doesn’t believe you can win, you need a different coach.

I love that my people are such assholes. I found this description for a Sto:lo cultural sites tour. This is the light option, fit for "S’téxem" aka “worthless people”. That's our term for, I guess the nearest equivalent would be 'serfs'.

Once you read about the Dark Enlightenment and the Neo-Reactionaries (NRx) -- everything Elon Musk is doing makes waaaaay more sense. Worth a Google search.

With everything going on—why is Canada’s navy pissing off China in order to help America? This doesn’t seem to be in the national interest. www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/2/...

This is what I've been saying. This is everywhere in Indian Country. Canadians suddenly think they're tough and ready for this fight - we're the descendants of the people you couldn't kill - we're tougher. After all, this is our Holy Land. Like in 1812, there is NO saving Canada without us.

Poilievre's Indigenous policy looks a lot like a threat. This is him saying the feds will cut funding for ISC, replace it with tax room - and if we allow resource development in our territories, we can tax it to replace the money the feds took. I.E. let the pipeline through, or no drinking water.

I want to share this story again because I think stories are incredibly powerful. In it, @rjjago.bsky.social notes that Canadian nationalism could very well push some Indigenous Nations into the arms of Trump. rjago.substack.com/p/unceded

Snow's almost gone, and back where it belongs - on the mountains. It's neat where there's that line up there. Also, finally got in to Dante's to try their sandwiches. Lived up to the hype; I could never wait before because the line was down the block. Only saw like 5 flags today BTW.

I did a call with an American friend, a newspaper editor in Indian Country, and this is exactly what she predicted - she said if this all happens, Rez will be set back 200 years. rjago.substack.com/p/appropriat...
