Sort of cool that to get transparency into Queen of Stupid Danielle Smith’s Alberta anti-government government, one has to read Toronto’s @TheGlobeandMail.com. 🤷🏼🤔🤭

Sources vary, but if in 2024, 🇺🇸USA was less than 15% of global GDP adjusted for purchasing power, surely the world can, over time, shake off its addiction to trading with them? Just shun them.

Sharing from @autisticadvocacy.org A baby can not get autism from their parent taking acetaminophen/ paracetamol/ Tylenol. Vaccines are safe. Autistic people and their families deserve respectful support. Trustworthy information can be found here: autisticadvocacy.org/2025/09/lead...

The irrelevance of #Poilievre continues to amaze me. All business and diplomacy thrives on relationships. To suggest one overseas meeting is all it takes to get results is total BS. And of course, our PM's experience is way ahead before he even starts. @susandelacourt.bsky.social #trade

Last night, Jimmy Kimmel turned a light back on in 🇺🇸America.

If you think Tylenol is bad for children, wait until you find out about guns.

Kimmel: "The President of the United States made it very clear he wants to see me and the hundreds of people who work here fired from our jobs. Our leader celebrates Americans losing their livelihoods because he cannot take a joke."

Kamala Harris: "It feels chaotic, but what I would offer you is what we are witnessing is the swift implementation of a plan that was decades in the making. Project 2025 didn't just drop out of thin air. That's a product of decades of work. Federalist Society, Heritage Foundation ... "

I can make the following statement because this is what multiple studies have shown: If your child has is on the autism spectrum, it is NOT because you took Acetaminophen while you were pregnant. ACETAMINOPHEN. DOES. NOT. CAUSE. AUTISM. There’s no proven causal link. There is NOT.

The first thing any respectable epidemiologist will tell you is that an ‘association’ does not prove causation. It may suggest the need for further investigation but does not prove. 🙄 www.theatlantic.com/health/2025/...

if you’re canceling your Disney and worried about what your kids will watch…might i suggest supporting your local PBS station, which gets you streaming access to all their content via PBS passport

When the Smothers Brothers apologized to President Johnson for their jokes about him, he replied, "It is part of the price of leadership of this great and free nation to be the target of clever satirists." Imagine having a president who had this courage now.

PM Mark Carney 🇨🇦 All the way from a farm in Manitoba to a bakery in Mexico City. Our trade relationships mean more business for Canadians. We’re focused on strengthening & diversifying those partnerships, so our industries, workers & farmers can supply more of the world with Canadian goods. #cdnpoli
