I really hate that Cons and cons are trying to pin everything wrong with anything on immigrants. So many lies. So much hate. So much ignorance.

Dear Canadian government. This Canadian does not support the US war on Iran. Be careful. We must not get involved. You know it.

Dear Decent Men: We need you more than ever to speak out when you see misogyny - even and especially when it’s presented under the guise of ’just a joke’. When those in power belittle and insult women on a daily basis we need the good guys to call it out, every damn time.

I'm always kind of surprised when people on here comment on a post when it's clear that they haven't read the article.

Just a regular reminder to please support your local theatre, café, bookstore, bakery, and library. We breathe life into these places when we support them. Without us, they can't survive, and truthfully, without them, neither can we.

To be a hockey announcer/commentator, is it compulsory to share every single idea or factoid in your head? And shout, even though you have a microphone? Is this all Danny Gallivan's fault?

I feel dumber everytime I read something from Drug Ford.

Well done CBC - I'm watching the figure skating and very much enjoying the absence of jibber jabber from commentators during the performances. They saved it till the music stopped.

Hey CBC Olympic coverage people, could we see how the non-Canadian competitors are doing. We used to complain that the Amnets didn't show anyone but Yanks. Please don't be like them.

Good post. Writing as if he were PM Carney explaining what's not happening - and what is.

Yes! Rebel! Rescue real things we can repair. Refuse disposable tech. Invest attention, rather than money. Not just coffee machines - though that's a good place to start.

Yes, thanks.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

ICE isn't law enforcement without training; ICE is white nationalism with guns.

Not the first time.... www.youtube.com/shorts/-8mOe...

I'm surprised more people don't recognize Carney's classic Canadian passive-aggressiveness. Golden Dome? "Sure, we'll look at it..." Trump's Gaza Jedi Council? "Sure, we might be interested... in principle." Why say no to a volatile madman when you can blow him off with non-committal "Sure buddy"?

Greenland's Cooperation Party: Tillie Martinussen says the people of Greenland flat out say NO to MAGA's bribery & propaganda. Turns out, it doesn't work on people whose government invested in educating their own citizens. 🙌🏻💪🏼 (Which is exactly why Republicans don't do it) / Pt1

All it would take is for a bunch of these CEOs to confront Trump in front of the world and tell him he's unfit to run a hot-dog stand, and his presidency would be over. Seriously. But none of them has the balls to do it.

This is so common. Check for feasibility, hedge against risks, acknowledge imperfections. But . . . If we wait for things to be perfect, they will never be done.

Can you imagine being in the US military right now and not knowing if the Insane, tyrannical president will send you to fight and, maybe, die in Iran for no good reason, or Greenland for completely idiotic reasons, or Minneapolis for very bad reasons.

Exactly!

If the Republicans don’t want to be compared to Nazis, they should stop acting like them.

Good column "If conservatives believe a policy is only good for Canada when we propose to do it, we are being insincere and fueling cynicism about politics at a time our country needs a healthy dose of unity. . . . it means being serious in the role of oppositiol." Erin O'Toole

The absolute truth...👇 "Amercia isn't the way America is because he's president. He's president because America is the way it is. " -David Cochrane, @pnpcbc, Jan. 6, 2025

Trump’s ICE thugs murdered someone, the regime wants you to argue with their trolls online about it, you should all right now be in the streets demanding justice and the fall of the regime.

This situation is precisely why we have impeachment

Hey Canada - Every post that goes something like, "Oh God! We have resources! Are we next?" raises our profile as a potential target. Please shut up. We should prepare but do it flying below the radar. Making noise just reminds the bully we are here. Let's resist and undermine the buggers quietly.

What should regular schlubs in Canada do to prepare for the next Insane upcoming US action? Is there a school for resistance? Or sabotage?

Working a little stall at the Farmer's Market not only connects me to my community - it grounds me during these insane times. Loving my little town.

Reading comments on political posts. Canadians on Facebook do not live in the same country as Canadians on Bluesky. It's quite remarkable how different these echo chambers are.

The important part is that Canadians' boycott and travel avoidance were grassroots movements, not inspired by any government (except, of course, the US gov.)

The Olivia Nuzzi story and the Bari Weiss at CBS story are the same story, which is that the upper echelons of legacy media are absolutely rife with people who worship power and don't feel burdened by any sense of responsibility to their profession or the public.

What a good piece. Lots to digest here. TLDR: Canada must diversify its trade - but read the article for the reasons. Interview with Michael Kovrig, Canadian diplomat who was held hostage by Chinese government.

Never forget they were all in for the future America is now in. #Republicanadians

"Canada also maintains policies that unfairly restrict market access for U.S. dairy products.” And we should keep it that way. US food inspection has been reduced by Trump. US allows chemicals and hormones we do not. Why should they dump their surplus on us? Don't encourage farmers to overproduce.

It's impressive that Big Tech was like: We aren't douchy enough. What if we made asshole intelligence and burned up some of the earth's power and water faster?

On now in my home - "Furioso." It's absolutely the stupidest movie I have ever seen. It has no point. Ultraviolence for the sake of ultraviolence. And noise for the sake of noise.

Gitte, I think you're correct.

Yikes! 40 years since Larry Gowan recorded 'Strange Animal.' Ominous spiritus. He's aging nicely, though I don't think I would recognize him if we met in the street.

Note to publishers and designers: if you are producing a cookbook, please DO NOT USE SMALL TYPE IN RECIPES. Also, avoid decorative fonts where numbers are involved. Some people actually cook from cookbooks. Also on the wish list - a good index and page numbers we can 1) locate and 2) read.

Yes, it's The Beaverton, but it's believable. Kevin is so worthy of being ignored that he's probably proud of being lampooned.

Journalists, now that we've escaped the risk of a Christmas election, please give us all a break from daily polling, ceaseless speculation, PP's tiresome "news" conferences, HOC QP smart-assery, and other shallow political nonsense. Give us useful information about what's going on in the country.

Give a man a fish and someone with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about people getting free handouts. Teach a man to fish? Yeah, that person with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about that too.
