Drained, Chester sat down and waited for the police to arrive. Staring at Alan’s still-warm body laying among the empty shells, he felt no remorse. There were two sacred rules. You didn’t touch another man’s wife, or another man’s nuts. His ears perked up as the sound of sirens rose in the distance.

So proud 🍁🍁🍁🍁🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 Thank you!!❤️

Thanks to Trump, we are closer to World War III now than we were before Jan. 20. Europe & Canada must establish a military alliance as an alternative to NATO. Moreover, Canada should join the European Union, asap. Trump & Putin will inevitably come for the Canadian Arctic.🇨🇦🇪🇺

Let’s go Canada!🇨🇦 Raise a flag on Saturday 🍁🍁🍁

I've said it before... killing the CBC when the U.S. is using U.S. owned media to propagandize for the destruction of Canada would be smashing all the fire alarms when an arsonist has threatened to burn your house down.

As Canadian business leaders meet today to discuss trade there is a clear preference going forward for Canadians in terms of who will be best to deal with our economy in the age of Trump threats. Mark Carney for PM makes total sense. #CanadianSky 🇨🇦 www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art...

RIP Marianne Faithful. You were written off by so many and came back with one of the most powerful, defiant and kick-ass feminists comebacks of all time. You were a powerful and unique voice. Go to the angels. www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0Nx...

“Online foreign interference and rampant populism have created groups who’ve made hating Justin Trudeau their entire personality. No former PM has had to deal with this level of toxicity, vitriol and deliberate disinformation.” An editorial by @mtltoula.bsky.social.

When the day 24 of #Januarty theme is “sweet” and you can’t find anything appropriate so you resort to mice again…✍️

Don't let Elon Musk interfere in our elections. Here is my letter to Elections Canada to protect our electoral process from interference by the X algorithm. www.charlieangus.ca/_files/ugd/5... If you are worried about Musk's extremism please send an email to: [email protected]

Serious times require serious leadership

MARK CARNEY 🇨🇦 - “Canada is not Broken… You can’t stand up to Trump, when you’re working from his Playbook... Pierre Poilievre has been a politician his ENTIRE life – and in all that time he hasn’t fixed a THING...” #cdnpoli #peipoli

“Traditional Conservatives should support Mark Carney in Canada’s next election. Let the Elon Musk Conservatives support Pierre Poilievre or the PPC. Carney’s economic record makes him the best choice to steer Canada through the second Trump presidency.”

Something lovely for the weekend! A 1,800 year-old Roman glass flask shaped like a little mouse 🐭😍 📷 by me www.metmuseum.org/art/collecti... #Archaeology

I'll just leave this here #cndpoli

Canada is facing 4 years of economic unrest and attacks. Maybe, just maybe, we DO need a PM with full domestic and international monetary experience & understanding. Maybe we need a Mark Carney? #cdnpoli #peipoli

We need a provincial government that will stand up for Canada and for our sovereignty and our economy. We have to take a Team Canada approach that looks out for the best interest of every Albertan. It’s time for us to fight for Canada! Danielle Smith, are you listening? youtube.com/shorts/NHB-b...

Extremists target Justin Trudeau and Canada. Far-right extremism, foreign interference, pose threats to Canadian democracy, national security. #cdnpoli #peipoli www.thewhig.com/opinion/extr...

"What we've been witnessing in the past few weeks is a guy, a billionaire that owns a very influential platform, meddling in other countries' elections and politics, and he's doing it in Canada," St-Onge said. "We know that we cannot trust these platforms as sources of information."

Heard on The Daily Show, former governor of the Bank of Canada Mark Carney telling John Stewart what he thinks of Trump's desires about Canada:

Liberal MP Mark Holland 🇨🇦 - "If you're against abortion, and you're against contraception, and you are against sexual education, then I'm sorry, you are against women's freedom altogether." If you're against all that, then you're a conservative. #cdnpoli #onpoli #peipoli

"The vitriol that Trudeau has — often inexplicably — been on the receiving end of came mostly from those who've been fed a steady diet of disinformation, and whose grievances often stem from suspicion of science and a constantly changing world they can’t keep up with.”

“Canada should quickly convene a meeting of the leaders of Denmark, Panama, Mexico, as well as with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, to formulate a plan for fighting back these threats.”

Donald Trump was just convicted of a hush money deal to a porn star. And he thinks Canadians are going to give up our birth right as a nation to join him? Here's my response as succinctly as I can put it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=q52o...

"Over the last decade, Prime Minister Trudeau has led with commitment, optimism, and strategic vision. The U.S.-Canada alliance is stronger because of him. The American and Canadian people are safer because of him. And the world is better off because of him" #cdnpoli www.ctvnews.ca/politics/u-s...

Con Pundits: “The comparisons of Poilievre to Trump are ridiculous. Just Liberal fear mongering” Reality:

Conservative pundits: “Poilievre and Conservatives won’t privatize healthcare. That’s just Liberal fear mongering” Reality:

Good morning!!! Three thousand year old cute to start the day. A hedgehog from the Acropolis museum in Athens 🦔

Mark Carney is absolutely right ...

Dear Donald, Thanks for including us in your deranged Christmas message. Being Canadian means free health care and limiting access to assault weapons. In your 51st state our kids would get shot at in school and CEOs would be shot for denying health care. So no. Now piss off. Your northern neighbour

Merry Christmas🎄🎄🍷🎄🎄

Clearly tired...Once again, reiterating my call for Jean Charest to join Bluesky. His comments are spot on 👇

A bust of Marie Antoinette done from life when she was 15 in beautiful Austria. Good morning.

My favourite photo. Taken by my grandfather near Toronto in 1908. Note he is in the air.

Well good morning to a nicer site 🦋

Welp. It looks like Poilievre was caught lying in a huge way. He’s not pro-choice. If media ignore this, we know they’re completely in bed with him because this goes against everything he and his party tried assuring Canadians about. Complete liars.

Here we go 🎄🎄🎄

#TimHorton made history today 💙👏

The Con obstruction and arrogant wasting of Canadians’ time in the House of Commons was summed up succinctly by Michele Cadario in less than 30 seconds today.

The earliest surviving quality photographic portrait of an identifiable person was taken this month in 1839. A self portrait by Robert Cornelius. It's the world’s first successful selfie.

Great work, @davidwcochrane.bsky.social ! You nailed it.

Did Neanderthals have mantelpieces? Maybe!
