Look how much Canadians hate the United States now It’s not just about the trade war. Nearly half of America’s neighbors to the north now think the U.S. is a bigger threat to world peace than Russia.

A revelation to some, but not to others.

Canada is now the first non-European country to be granted a membership in SAFE. This is a gamechanger program that means Canada can rearm our Canadian Armed Forces members more effectively and scale up our defence industries with more contracts overseas.

Bud Cort, star of Harold and Maude, dies aged 77 Actor best-known for role in Hal Ashby’s black comedy also appeared in films by Robert Altman and Wes Anderson

Bud Cort has passed away at the age of 77 after a lengthy illness.

I loved his work in Harold & Maude, released in 1971. I saw it dozens of times when it was being screened at reperatory cinemas during the 70s. It remains one of my favourite films to this day.
