Donald Trump avoided military service during the Vietnam War through five draft deferments: four for college education and one in 1968 for medical reasons regarding bone spurs in his heels…

APTN's reporter in Iqaluit says U.S. President Donald Trump’s continued threats to annex Greenland is having a direct effect on the people of Nunavut. Read more on how Nunavut and Greenland play into global strategic defense from Nation to Nation.

How cool!!

👍😜👏

Massive snowstorm here right now near #AlgonquinPark. Heading out shortly to snowshoe in the fresh snow. Here is a segment of "Winter Solitude" a poem by Canadian, Archibald Lampman. #snow #Snowstorm #Canada #Poetry #Nature #Winter 🍁

Yes! And Iv'e just realised why they have those funny noses - Heat Exchangers!!!

For decades, countries like Canada prospered under what we called the ‘rules-based international order.’ That order is not coming back, but from the fracture, we can build something better, stronger, and more just. youtu.be/Ve4FwAexdSQ

“the Canadian exit was sudden, synchronized, and devastating.” Damn straight 💪🇨🇦

Zelenskyy’s speech in Davos ended with applause. I believe Europeans understand that they need to become their own superpower once again. They must act now.

I LOVE going to Algonquin for moose photography! We haven’t gone in years. Maybe we’ll go this spring… ❤️

So fuzzy! 🥹

😍

Poetry, Sheer Beautiful Poetry Have a Wonderful Day 😃🇨🇦

They really love the cold weather!

27°C below, and you could hear a needle drop in the endless silence. Winter in Canada: a touch of magic. 🍁

This beaver took the time to check us out as we cross-country skied by its lodge. #nature #wildlife #beaver #NaturePhotography #wilderness #Ontario #Canada 🍁

Very cold weather these days in #AlgonquinPark with endless snow, but the moose are still getting around and finding something to eat. #nature #wildlife #moose #wilderness #wildlifephotography #Ontario #Canada 🍁

In #AlgonquinPark we were lucky to witness this Red Fox as it wandered about the woods in search of food. It did manage, at a couple of spots, to find something buried beneath the snow. Yum,yum. #wildlife #fox #animals #nature #wildlifephotography #Ontario #Canada 🍁

Denmark’s Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen said he would refuse U.S. President Donald Trump’s request for negotiations over acquiring Greenland.

Trump repeatedly confuses Greenland with Iceland during a low-energy, slurring appearance at Davos

Starmer slams Trump: "Trump deployed words on Chagos yesterday that were different to his previous words of welcome and support when I met him in the White House... for the express purpose of putting pressure on me and Britain in relation to my values and principles on the future of Greenland."

🚨 BREAKING: The Dow just crashed 918 points. Denmark's second pension fund dumped $100M in US Treasuries today, calling America "not a good credit." The EU is preparing $108B in counter-tariffs. All over Greenland. When your allies start selling your debt, you're not the reserve currency.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney warned that world order is at a “rupture” point due to the U.S.’s longstanding vise-grip on the world and its swiftly expanding authoritarian nature under President Donald Trump.

Never more proud

In an era of great power rivalry, Canada is choosing to be principled and pragmatic. To name reality, to act together, and to build what we claim to believe in.

Carney's speech is brilliant. Here is a transcript. I suspect we will be feeling some serious pain in Canada shortly from the reaction open.substack.com/pub/paulwell...

PM Carney invoked Václav Havel to warn against “living within a lie” — the quiet compliance that sustains unjust systems. His message was clear: power persists when people go along to get along, and it breaks when even one actor refuses. 🎥 Credit CPAC Live / YouTube ❤️🍁🇨🇦TEAM CANADA FOREVER🇨🇦🍁❤️

Im so fucking glad Carney is in charge in Canada, and can look Starmer in the eye and tell him what the fuck is going on...

Very cold today in Algonquin Park, presently -25c and snowing, but the Grey Jays are still out and about. #birds #birding #BirdsSeenIn2026 #jay #wilderness #AlgonquinPark #Ontario #Canada

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask: "If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

Stunning!

It was very cold in Algonquin Park yesterday but that didn't stop a group of sledders from heading out into the bush to go camping. "Vive le Canada!" #winter #AlgonquinPark #Ontario #Canada #landscapephotography #nature #wilderness #camping

Trump just got a major award.

From Nuuk, Greenland:

Demonstrators in Nuuk, Greenland, reached the area in front of the American consulate.

Protests in Greenland and Denmark. We stand with them. Resist! ✊ FDT!

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney just did the unthinkable: publicly declaring that Canada will defend Greenland if Donald Trump attempts any military action. That’s not rhetoric — that’s NATO Article 5, meaning an attack on Greenland is treated as an attack on all allies, including Canada.

Canada the "True, North, Strong and Free" will defend #Greenland. Canadian PM Mark Carney confirms that if the US were to invade #Greenland, #Canada would be obligated to assist in Greenland's defense. Carney: "The future of Greenland is a decision for Greenland and for the Kingdom of Denmark."

The fourteenth prime minister of #Canada, Lester B. Pearson didn't beg someone else for their #NobelPeacePrize like Donald Trump. Pearson won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1957 for his leadership at the United Nations during the Suez crisis. He also helped form #NATO.
