Coloured pencil and PanPastel. Beautiful!

Listen, like every Canadian, I REALLY BADLY want #TeamCanada to beat #TeamUSA at hockey tonight. But win or lose, when the game is over, Canada will still be a great nation standing up to a lying, corrupt and fascist American president attacking allies & hurting his own people. #4Nations #GoCanadaGo

I... do not understand this new construction of masculinity? it's not athletic. it's not stoic. it's not handsome. it's not accomplished. it's never been intellectual. it's just rich white loud dudes on the TV who look like they don't wash their genitals? is that it?

I'd just like to express my undying gratitude for all the engineers, scientists, lawyers, doctors, airline experts, world-health specialists and lawyers who take the trouble to come onto this site or others to refute the crazy tide of misinformation we're currently living with.

Canada would be well served if it boosted its vaccine research and production.

BREAKING: France, Germany, Poland, Italy, Spain & UK sign a joint statement vowing to protect Ukraine’s sovereignty & demanding a role in the peace talks. This is leadership. It’s also unprecedented. A western alliance is having to form against a new, twin & united threat: Trump & Putin.

Sobeys today: The main sign said the gala apples were a product of Canada. The sticker on each of the apples said U.S.A. Read the fruits themselves. I am sure they will need to get rid of American fruit before it goes bad. The more you know... #buycanadian #supportcanadianbusiness

The Original Indigenous Names for the Great Lakes: Superior: gichi-gami (great sea) Erie: erielhonan (long tail) Michigan: michigami (long body of water) Ontario: Ontarí'io\kanadario (great lake\beautiful water) Huron: karegnondi (fresh water sea)

Honestly, this guy. He’s so upbeat, so genuine, so optimistic. A bridge-builder. And this video shot in the snow is visually stunning.

Has anyone else noticed that Elon Musk hasn’t hired any women for his Dept. Of Gov Efficiency? I assume that’s because he’s a male chauvinist pig.

No Thanks, Musk. We'll Direct Our Readers Elsewhere via @thetyee.ca thetyee.ca/Tyeenews/202...

Okay everyone we can relax, alert Trump, our Fentanyl border czar Bonhomme is on the job:

Bye Amazon. Bye Netflix. Bye Tesla. Bye Shopify. Bye Facebook. Bye National Post. Bye Toronto Sun. Bye Ford. Bye Smith. Bye Poilievre. Buy Canada. 🇨🇦

Pete McMartin writes eloquently about losing the US as a friend, which I've felt for a decade now. vancouversun.com/news/opinion...

All the liquor store shelf space freed up by removing American products should be reserved for new out-of-province products. I'd like to see some Ontario wines in BC, and vice versa.

Interesting stats:

🤣

Going to tell Trump this is Canada’s Fentanyl Czar.

Getting out of the immediate moment of crisis was always a prerequisite. But we're a very dumb country if we allow this Sword of Damocles to continue to be hung over us. Keep buying Canadian, keep diversifying trade, keep thinking about a world with a less reliable America. Let's learn something.

So Trump hurt America's relationship with Canada and made markets wobble all to "get" Canada to do things Canada had announced back in December in coordination with the Biden administration, do I have that right?

Nothing’s changed. I’ll still be making every possible choice to shop local/Canadian/not USA. Our country now has 30 days to sort out interprovincial trade and support each other. And we have 30 days to bolster trade relations with anyone not USA. Fool 🇨🇦 once… you won’t get to fool 🇨🇦 again.

So, a 30-day "pause" on tariffs. I have very mixed feelings. On the one hand, I want Dotard and his morons to feel the full pain of Canadian tariffs (auto sector, lumber, aluminum, steel) and on the other hand, I am glad for the reprieve. If only to allow more Canadians to make preparations.

We should be done buying American and continue to boo their anthem regardless of whether bone Trump throws today as he slow walks his retreat. Fucking America. The world doesn’t have to live in constant chaos because they voted to. We have options.

If you can grasp satire & subtext, @thebeaverton.com is more informative than some of that Postmedia drivel

If Provincial liquor outlets can remove American products I see no reason why retail food stores can't do the same. Right Galen Weston Jr., et al I'll shop at the first food retailer to do this... #Tariff #Canpoli #tradewar Why create a made in Canada list? Just take the shit off the shelves.

Banning American beer is a more of a public service than retaliation.

Trump has nothing of value to say, so he blames the crash on Obama, Biden, and DEI.

This wins my laugh of the day 😄

endlessly furious at the US Democrats for how their cowardice delivered to the world not only the continuation of the genocide they abetted, but brand new ones on top of it
