A delightful diversion parodying the political musings of our time concerning Alberta, Canadian affairs, and the tumultuous intrigues of American governance! Such an endeavor, when graced with the keen wit and sparkling irony of Miss Austen, is a treasure.

So, then?

The 2500 marines that got deployed to the middle east are going to secure Kharg Island for use as an American military base?

β€˜Cheese slipped off the cracker’: Ford calls for apology after U.S. ambassador hurls β€˜insults and swore’ at Ontario trade rep U.S. Ambassador to Canada Pete Hoekstra lashed out at Ontario’s trade representative at an event in Ottawa on Monday, according to two sources in the Ontario government.

Maybe a reduced diplomatic capacity is a good thing as what is left probably will just end up screaming Trumpisms at other nations, anyways....

Canada’s Conservative leader needs to make inroads with Trump. Is it too late? Why Pierre Poilievre has few friends in and around the White House.

Lack of trust that stems from situations like where you arrange meetings with Trump's staff and then you can't "remember who they met with".....

"No quarter, no mercy for our enemies."

So, did Baltimore's medical exam expose degenerative damage to the bone in Maxx Crosby's knee and onset osteo-arthritis?

You know, given Crosby's insistence on playing with damaged meniscus in his knee last season.

Wouldn't that be a shame?

That's it. That was the plan.

Other questions that elicit no worry from Trump.....

Do you worry about the closure of the Strait of Hormuz?

Do you worry that once the Strait of Hormuz is closed that it will never be restored to its previous activity?

Do you worry that the effect on the global economy will be permanent?

Trump judge and his family receive threats after New York arrest Judge Juan Merchan, his family and the Manhattan court where Trump was arraigned Tuesday have already received numerous threats, sources told NBC News.

Time to reflect on Trump's history of making comments about β€˜life and safety’ is how he threatens other people.

Iran athletes would be in danger and that danger originates from Trump, himself......
