Once Doug builds the private spa no one asked for, Iβm sure people will be keen to book conventions at the new convention centre no one asked for.

By the way, Trump still has not publicly congratulated the U.S. women's hockey team. That seems to be lost in all this. No statement. No social media post. No call to them. Nothing.
congrats to the mens hockey team for letting a demented 80 year old sex criminal steal your shine and make himself the center of your accomplishment

Ashamed AF to be an American. Ask anyone outside the U.S., we are officially a shithole country.
βIt is time to acknowledge what has become tragically obvious: the Trump administration is operating as a massive criminal enterprise.β
This absolutely captures it. Instead of "Trump Administration," we should say "Trump Syndicate."

One of Stephen Harper's funnier retorts:
All this, and Norway has a coast, too
My latest: Alberta's separatist leaders keep using Norway as an example of why an independent Alberta would work.
Let's put that to the test, shall we? #cdnpoli #abpoli

"Here are some other things Norway has: a 78 per cent effective tax rate on upstream oil and gas operations, substantial public ownership in the sector (including its largest company, Equinor), massive electric vehicle subsidies, and a consumption tax of 25 per cent."

Wow.
The Winter Olympics start today, and we will feel pride and honor for our country.
But when we see our criminal, delusional President, we feel none of those things.
Iβve faced off with him before, and now Iβm ready to take him on in Congress.
For those keeping score at home:
Message from the Governor General of Canada on the passing of Catherine OβHara January 30, 2026 It is with profound sadness that my husband, Whit, and I learned of the passing of Catherine OβHara, a cultural trailblazer and acting legend whose creative genius helped define the Canadian artistic consciousness. Ms. OβHara was a sparkling inspiration who pushed boundaries and shone a spotlight on Canadian comedy. From her hometown debut with The Second City comedy troupe in Toronto, to her celebrated characters in SCTV, she could embody characters like few other actors. Her unforgettable roles in Beetlejuice, Home Alone, Best in Show and Schittβs Creek cemented her legacy as an icon of pop culture. A recipient of the 2021 Governor Generalβs Performing Arts Award for Lifetime Artistic Achievement, Ms. OβHara was widely recognized for her warmth and brilliance. In 2018, her immense contributions were further honored when she was invested as an Officer of the Order of Canada. Whit and I extend our deepest condolences to her family, friends, and all those whose lives she touched through her work. Mary Simon

Itβs time to tap into your internal lesbian anger! Even if youβre straight. Now is the time to fight for your 1st Amendment rights! Letβs go!
What could possibly go wrong?
Every social theory undergirding Trumpism has been broken on the steel of Minnesotan resolve. The multiracial community in Minneapolis was supposed to shatter. It did not. It held until Bovino was forced out of the Twin Cities with his long coat between his legs. The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that theyβre the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesiveβbecause of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about βWestern civilization,β while armed brutes try to tear it down by force.
Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significantβthough not finalβvictory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
Just a quick note about Bovino being moved and the other aesthetic politicoplasty the Trump administration is undertaking:
Don't be fooled. Don't get all Susan Collins-y about it. Trump hasn't learned his lesson. He never will.
Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days.
His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.
Weβve all seen all this already, but I found this particular compilation very compelling.
And very sad.
One of the best things Iβve read in a while:
I think you are underestimating the distrust against the US. Not only did you elect a madman twice, even after he was convicted of felonies, but your system has been utterly incapable of addressing the insanity, grift, and horror of his regime.
As Carney said the world order has been ruptured.
As a Canadian, Iβm finding this so interesting. I would prefer if it was academic, and not practical information. π
Charles Yang of Time for Three absolutely slaying me. I would lose my mind if I heard this live. Even crappy phone speakers made me scream and cry.
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre's stand on a proposed new oil pipeline from Alberta to the West Coast is flawed on so many levels. @rossbelot.bsky.social writes www.nationalobserver.com/2026/01/23/o...
High maternal and infant mortality? Lower lifespan? No parental leave? Zero required vacation days? Larger gap between the haves and the have nots? Less upward mobility? Lower education?
