Why would any soccer fan risk traveling to the USA for the World Cup and be "interviewed" and have their social media checked by the same organization that kills its own citizens in cold blood? #boycottWorldCup until it is safe again.

Mark Carney speech at Davos: sensible, intelligent, decent and realistic. Canada leading the world in these crazy times.

Time for Canada and Mexico to abandon the Trump World Cup. We can wait. #Learnfrom1936

It is clearly time to #boycott the World Cup. Send a message.

www.nytimes.com/2025/12/09/t... For the World Cup: giant fan zones in Canadian cities to give soccer fans a North American experience without the risk of being detained! Come on: invite the Tartan Army and everyone else to Canada instead.

I’m shaking with rage over the Trump “Quiet, Piggy” story. America, how much more are we going to take?

In #CapeBreton this week for #CelticColours? Don't miss Waters Flowing Together in Iona with music, theatre, #oceantech and Western and Indigenous perspectives on the #ocean and #coasts, especially the Bras d'Or Lake Biosphere Region. Open to all, symposium registration at tinyurl.com/4yv28dat

The US Commander in Chief should be dismissed immediately because he is really, really fat. USA: get your act together. #Hegseth #idiocy

Also great way for Canada to increase defense spending: send our mosquitos to Finland.

@dalfaculty.bsky.social @timbousquet.bsky.social Can we find out: a) who at Dalhousie hired these consultants? b) how much Dalhousie is paying them? c) what have been their recommendations to senior management and Dal board? Just to clear the air a little.

The reputational risk to #Dalhousie University from its misguided and ill-considered lockout of Faculty is massive. A glance at the Board makeup, mainly corporate types, makes me worry they may have no idea what makes a successful University, what Faculty do, and why.

Convenient for Republicans to say "don't politicise tragedy". But this article from April about experienced #NWS early warning manager from San Antonio, #Texas forced into early retirement by #chainsaw cuts to #NOAA demands accountability in the face of the #flood tragedy. tinyurl.com/yyhxveef

Donald Two Dolls.

A recording that will put a smile on the face of all #Canadians and maybe make Maritimers shed a nostalgic tear or two. So excellent from start to finish

This makes sense. #corruption and #racketeering, pure and simple.

In these days of doom and gloom why not resurrect some classic Atlantic Canadian political humour: youtu.be/XsQhSF3t_E8?...

We polled Nature readers to ask if they were thinking of leaving the US for jobs abroad. Three-quarters of them (who said they were US-based scientists) said yes. 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Has everyone forgotten their basic biology? Whales, contrary to sharks and fish, eat carbon in the ocean, metabolise it to move and stay warm, and then pump it into the atmosphere. The carbon goes the wrong way!! Whales are really great but not for reducing atmospheric CO2😂🧪

Shocking and illegal.

So when you go to the #CNN news page, there is nothing about this movement. same on #MSNBC.: one hidden article. All we get is Tr&mp and more Tr&mp.

Nice story from Brent Else of the University of Calgary showing how flexible #oceantech can support #oceanscience from Navy patrol boats. #meopar #mori 🧪 www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/vide...

Looking around the world today it is more clear than ever that the word "humane" is an oxymoron.

#oceanacience goes so much better with #oceantech. Including during missions to the #Antarctic on vessels of the Royal Canadian Navy. 🧪 www.dal.ca/news/2025/03...

To all my American colleagues and friends. Please listen to these words from Justin #Trudeau. If you feel your country is being ruined by your "President", please buy #Canadian products until this craziness ends. #Canada 🇨🇦 youtu.be/83f47jIS_D8?...

#Project2025 specifically calls for #NOAA to be “dismantled,” “downsized,” and “eliminated,” recommending the privatization of its essential functions. Frank Schwing, Science Network member and retired federal scientist, explains how your community’s safety and prosperity rely on NOAA. #ProtectNOAA

#BBC live coverage of London summit today: announcer refers to arrival of "President Trudeau". Chyron ignores Canadian participation. Could do better. #Canada 🇨🇦🇨🇦

⚡️Canada’s Trudeau heads to European defense summit in London. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau departed for London on March 1 to take part in a European defense summit focused on shaping the conditions for a lasting peace in Ukraine.

Nice example of military-government-academia partnership from #Canada for the first Canadian science 🧪 mission to the #Antarctic. Supported, in-part, by MEOPAR @meopar-oacop.bsky.social youtu.be/L8QiUFg8tkw?...

King Charles: do you really want that thug over for tea? #cancelstatevisit

Isn't it great when you learn that a secret vice is really an act of patriotism? 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 #Canada #icecream

Your 'moment of doom' for Feb. 19, 2025 ~ Talking of the end. "Virtual meetings are also required to be submitted for review if they touch on an array of topics including: climate, energy, offshore wind, ocean mapping and exploration, competitive seafood, aquaculture, ocean plastics..."

Math is hard

New from me: American government scientists are being barred from meeting with Canadian counterparts. I've obtained internal NOAA memos ordering all international scientific collaboration meetings be submitted for review www.cbc.ca/news/science... #ClimateChange #UsPoli #AAASmtg

A little reporting up here in #Canada on the #CBC about the situation with #NOAA. Thanks @jaelabernstien.bsky.social @ucsusa.bsky.social www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

If this continues, the #AAAS (American Association for the Advancement of Science) should shorten its name in order to be more inclusive, sorry, efficient. AAS sounds just fine to me. #AAAS2025 #AAASmtg

Cape Breton, Nova Scotia in winter: it's not the Alps or Aspen but it is beautiful, peaceful and friendly. #CapeSmokey, #CapeBreton, #NovaScotia

This was in Halifax a couple of days ago. Sort of sums things up.

If you are planning an #OceanScience or #OceanTech workshop or conference, hold it in Canada, where it's nice, friendly and still rational. And where we could use your support in keeping scientific integrity and debate alive on this continent.

Nice to be back in Germany where Kale is down-to-earth and not even remotely pretentious 😁

Hello World! It's now time to reject the organs of division and propaganda and figure this thing out and get active :-)
