Russia’s shadow fleet is the only group that sabotages NATO countries’ undersea cables regularly. Canada should help monitor & defend against this as a matter of national security, and coordinate with the Baltic NATO counties who are fighting the same thing. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors. I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.

Whoa. Pierre Poilievre started a press conference with a question from the truly trash True North, has taken a question from Rebel News...and between every question you can hear a someone yell in the background that he's not allowing all reporters to ask questions. He's ignoring them.

I heard a report on CBC this morning that the Delta passengers and crew in the Toronto crash helped each other free (hanging upside down) and out of the plane very quickly, despite being in shock. People can be incredibly good and kind. I hope those injured survive and recover completely.

🇺🇦🏅 Zelensky: “Invictus Games” have ended in Canada, where the Ukrainian team was represented by 35 veterans. They won 32 medals: 12 gold, 11 silver and 9 bronze. This is the result not only of months of training and rehabilitation, but also of the Ukrainian character and spirit.
