Blumenthal after getting briefed on Iran: "We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here. There's also the specter of active Russian aid to Iran putting in danger American lives ... China also may be assisting Iran"

Seeing Iran's immense military power and what their violent regime has done throughout the Middle East there "may" have been a case for military action, BUT NOT LIKE THIS!! Two mad tyrants blundering in with no plan, no consultation with "allies" and no clear set out objective!!

The War is highly unpopular, yet Congress voted to not require the President to appear befor Congress and explain the rationale for the War. This is good evidence that your Congressional representatives do not represent their constituants but, rather, represent some minority interest.

Government Denies Unpaid Work Exists In Canadian Airlines The federal unpaid work study has largely validated a compensation structure flight attendants struck to overturn.

β€œEven airlines like Air Canada and Porter...acknowledge that unpaid work exists in the airline industry. How, then, is the government keeping a straight face as it tells Canadians and workers in this industry that #unpaidwork does not exist?”

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.

Let’s only call Americans β€œUSians” and let’s only ever refer to the United States, never ever adding β€œof America”. Let’s keep using UK spelling. Let’s make sure our military is uncoupled from the U.S. just like Ukraine’s is not linked to Russia. Let’s replace all U.S. imported food with other food.

I would rather Canada have nuclear deterrent weapons than be part of Trump’s β€œShield if the Americas.” He is just like Putin.
