The crowd absolutely erupts when Carney says the Pacific Link pipeline will reduce Canada's dependence on the U.S. Mark Carney: "Careful. They might think that's election interference. They're a little touchy down there. We're not. We're getting on with it."

At least Quebec got a minority government last night. We don't need another separatist referendum and happy to see that Quebecers don't either. Now keep these asshats in-line and focused on important issues.

I had hopes about this new Pope...and then he says this. I have personally been with patients that had MAID and it is a blessing. They went out on their terms, ending months possible years' worth of pain and suffering for themselves and their loved ones.

Pope Leo XIV blasted the legalization of medically assisted death as immoral “false compassion,” as he doubled down on Catholic teaching about life. globalnews.ca/news/1207497...

The press should have stop covering Trump in the Oval office long ago or at the very least fire back at him whenever he was insulting female journalists and reporters or having a dementia-based tantrum. He hates not being in the spotlight.

Former Canada Prime Minister Jean Chrétien: "I have message for American friends...never mistake our generosity for weakness. Never mistake our tolerance for lack of determination. And never, never mistake our kindness for softness...We bow to no one." Jean Chrétien is an absolute gem 💎❤️🇨🇦

Well, we got ourselves a Trade War with the US. Time to cancel F-35 contract, raise potash prices and start charging more for energy. CUSMA ain't worth the paper it's written on with Dementia Donny.

Still a big NO for me and millions of Canadians. We can stock their crap but why bother? There's a strong boycott of US products.

“Whether Nova Scotians or Canadians will actually buy it when it gets back on, that’s a whole other discussion,” Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston said. globalnews.ca/news/1202855...

Dear America, Fuck Off. Then keep Fucking Off. Keep Fucking Off until you get to a gate with a sign saying, "You can't Fuck Off past here." Climb over that gate, dream the impossible dream and keep fucking off forever. We are over your bullshit tantrum tactics.

Wise up America, we don't want your booze. It's not up to Mark Carney to allow it on our shelves, it is the provinces mandate to allow it. And right now, it is not worth taking up space in government liquor stores. Now if the private sector wants to stock it in their stores, fine.

Everyday the news is filled with the stupidity of Trump and his merry band of idiots. Americans subjected the world to this asshole twice now, no forgiveness and no forgetting for that country.

With Allies like them who needs enemies? That's okay you pack of day-old twats, we are buying from Canadian companies and have locked in on Europe's Defence fund. You're having a hissy fit because we are not spending as much on American arms.

Save the CBC 🇨🇦✌️@savethecbc.bsky.social

The Trump administration just paused participation in a Canada-U.S. defence board that’s existed since 1940, while accusing Canada of failing on defence spending. Is this about military budgets, or punishing Canada for asserting independence from Washington? What should Canada do next?

There's more collective IQ's points between these two than there is in current Trump administration. This is going to rile up the Orange Diaper Stain really nicely!
