Gosh if only the US hadn't tariffed and bullied the entire globe. And ridiculed past allied military support and sacrifices. I must be too dim to see the 4D chess being played.

Someone posted that once you see that image as an American flag it's hard to unsee it.

Again with this crap? Our PM is too gracious and smart to respond to juvenile bullying but it further cements a nation's ire towards a former ally. USA first means all alone.

Despicable to say this ahead of conceding the US bombed a girls school. His soul is shriveling before our eyes.

I have seen nothing to counter my opinion of November, 2024. Trump seems to have been chosen by God - for the harrowing of the USA and the world.

Fox ran older footage but labeled it as happening Saturday.

Of all the cruel and obscene things done by this administration it's the horror of Musk and the Doge boys gleefully sentencing millions to their death that most grieves me.

Quietly, calmly and forensically, BBC just dismantled the Trump communications shitshow on Iran.

No hyperbole, just laying out an unprecedented military, diplomatic and reputational shambles.

Worth a watch.

If you're thinking of moving to Canada the one thing we will judge you on is the use of "u's". Colour us neighbourly otherwise 😊

For me it's competence deepened with wisdom and sanity. Foreign friends have shared that Carney is saying things they are hungry to hear from their own leaders. And they'd take Carney as their PM in a heartbeat.

I'm surprised there hasn't been a subversive effort to destroy the various banners that are crying out for mischief.

Not only does he threaten our economy, he threatens sovereignty, he glories in corruption and cruelty, and killed the rule of law. Most recently he extorts a bridge we paid for, all for a bribe. No visits, no purchases from our house.

Hard to believe the GM of Minnesota Wild is so tone deaf to the harm being levied on his state by his buddies.
