The journalist in Poilievre’s viral "apple" video feels "a substantial degree of satisfaction that Pierre Poilievre lost." "Canadians saw through his three-word grade-school rhyming, and his toxicity and bullying nature which points more to a tearing down, not a unifying of our country."

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you. Senator Van Hollen lives this attitude – and planted hope in hopelessness. (I’m not crying, you’re crying.)

These early 1960’s go carts that my dad and his friends were racing look like absolute hell on wheels. I believe he once told me this was near Smiths Falls. #gocarts #vintagegocarts #1960s #deathtrap

Couldn’t get a good picture but I saw this odd coloured wild turkey this afternoon amongst a flock of the usual colour pattern. I thought it was albino or perhaps interbred with domestic turkeys, but apparently it’s a rare recessive gene that causes it, they are called “Smokey grey phase” turkeys.

Sunday hike. Rogers Pond loop trail in Marlborough Forest. Easy 5km, flat, mostly dense cedar bush. 1/3 was badly post holed, the first section was deceptively well packed. Beautiful blue skies and 3 degree temps. Lots of tracks, especially deer and coyote, but all I saw was 1 squirrel.

Booing the Star Spangled Banner at sporting events is lame (in my humble opinion). 167 million eligible voters in the US did not vote for this. Why offend them? Kill em with kindness and keep the moral high ground! And besides, there’s no easier way to demoralize the American players on your team.

They say that 1939 Britain stood alone against a despot. That's not true. Canadian kids were signing up in the thousands. We were there to defend British skies. Now Canada stands alone in the face of despotism.and there is crickets from our European allies. But we've got this. Canada. #strongasfuck

Fuck Donald Trump. Any self respecting Canadian that still supports this clown should take a long hard look in the mirror.

I studied the Nazis at university, taught the history of Nazi Germany on two continents and wrote for major newspapers about Nazi Germany. I am internet famous for fact- checking chuds on the history, ideology and policy of Nazi Germany. That was a Nazi salute.

Absolutely beautiful night sky tonight. If you are lucky enough to live where there isn’t a lot of light pollution do yourself a favour and go look up at the stars for a few minutes, it’s good for the soul. Multiple planets clearly visible too.

While Trump is trolling Canada about annexing it, Canadians are in Los Angeles tonight dropping water on the Palisades fire. He’s a disgrace.

So I'm standing in the grocery store parking lot and it's freaking cold. A very classy old woman sees me and walks the entire distance across the lot. "You give that man shit," she says. Then walks away. That's Canada. The criminal might buy off porn stars. He will never force Canada to bend.

Trump has promised to pardon Jan. 6 rioters. Experts warn that such a move could trigger a renaissance for militant extremists, sending them an unprecedented message of support — and making it all the more urgent to understand them.

"In the 80s there was this movie released about a Vietnam veteran who was so haunted by his trauma and so mistreated by the police that he was driven into a violent rampage." "Oh wow. How did that go over?" "We turned it into a Saturday morning cartoon for kids. Sold action figures." "What?"
