The CFIA hasn’t fined a single grocer for selling US products as Canadian. #cdnpoli So I built a toolkit: a library of 101 of ready-to-use letters you can send to your MP. Copy one, add your name, hit send. (I'll make a video about this in the morning. I gotta get sleep now.) 👉 b.link/mpemails

A loser senator from Maine wrote to Canadian representatives asking them to commit treason, break up our country and join the United States of Trump. I had to school him in basic facts about Canadian values and our readiness to defend our nation from fascists. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Bpt...

Norma Swenson, who was a proponent of natural childbirth when she joined a group that produced what would become the feminist health classic, “Our Bodies, Ourselves,” died last month. She was 93.

“She sat down and paused for a few seconds, and then looked at me earnestly and asked, ‘Will you be there to hold my hand?’”

@mark-carney.bsky.social “rethinks” market capitalism. From 4 years ago on @tvotoday.bsky.social This is the man for the job, of that now I’m certain. youtube.com/watch?v=1g0n...

I always thought that habitual offender laws and three strikes laws emerged in the 1990s as part of the tough-on-crime era. But then I was looking through old state codes and I saw a three strikes law from 1923. Then I found dozens from around this time, and wondered (naively) what was going on.

“I dream of a a safe, kind, and clean Canada. A Canada that is not the US.” This video is amazing. Canada will emerge stronger with a leader made for this moment - @mark-carney.bsky.social 💪❤️🇨🇦

Tomorrow, a certain online mega-retailer launches a book sale, just days before Indie Bookstore Day on 4/26. This is no coincidence; Bookstore Day is one of the largest revenue drivers for indies. Indies need our support to thrive & build community spaces for all...mega-retailers do not.

"Mr. Poilievre shares the aim of his provincial confreres: to legitimize the notwithstanding clause by repeated use, and so to neutralize the #Charter as a constraint on government." #cdnpoli

So good! Thanks @forwardcanada.bsky.social youtu.be/ihl0n2niBKo?...

This is about as good an orientation for where we are and what’s happening as you’re going to get…and it points to the most important thing we can do: build a vision of the world we want

Another concern about Pierre Poilievre and the Conservatives. thetyee.ca/Opinion/2025...

I’m devastated, but I’m also angry. I’m angry because this is an attack on press freedom. If opportunities can be stripped from journalists simply because enough people repeat the same bad-faith narrative, how can anyone withstand the career impact of doing work that matters?

These are dark times but I have been inspired by the determination of people to come together and to stand strong. Please take the time to watch the speech I gave to the first meeting of the Toronto Elbows Up Chapter. The resistance is growing everywhere. #elbowsup www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-Ie...

Forget slogans. Or expensive wraps on jets. THIS is what leadership sounds like. #mbpoli #manitoba #cdnpoli youtube.com/shorts/LVmdu...

“CSIS did not share this information with Mr. Poilievre, the source said, because he does not have the necessary security clearance to access secret documents and receive classified briefings on foreign-interference activities in Canada.” Is this why Poilievre refused to get his security clearance…

I feel like the tone has changed here. Are Americans feeling defeated or are they getting ready to fight? I plan to attend a rally - Elbows Up Canada - next Saturday Mar 22 at Toronto City Hall. Non-partisan event. Nathan Phillips Square 2pm.

We are family - except creepy cousin #carney #poilievre #federalelection

Elbows up! Rally in Toronto March 22, 2025 at 2pm. Nathan Phillips Square. www.elbowsup-canada.ca

Sure has changed in my house. Now we shop CFABUS...Canadian first, anything but US second.

$1,200 vs $9,300: On average, each American purchases about $1,200 worth of Canadian goods annually, while each Canadian spends approximately $9,300 on American goods. All of this is about to change.

Trump’s latest tariffs have sent the stock market tumbling and triggered warnings from economists about rising costs on everyday goods. So why is Trump willing to impose such chaos on both us and our allies? Is there a method to Trump's tariff madness? The Big Picture digs into the truth today.

Can an American tell me why there aren't mass protests? I am in my late 70's but if it were happening here, I would be out there on the streets.

Game on Canada. Elbows Up.

Trump's threats against Canada aren't a joke. It makes me angry and mark my words, we'll do all we can so that we are not overrun or absorbed by the US. We want to stay Canadian. foreignpolicy.com/2025/02/25/c...

In a strongly-worded letter to Catholic bishops in the United States, Pope Francis is taking to task the Trump Administration's stance on migrants, and that he's following what he calls a "major crisis" with the initiation of mass deportation.

I hope that Americans are paying attention to the threats that Canada is facing.

Here's what the decision by America's favorite sports league tells us about "anticipatory obedience."

@cardgames-io.bsky.social I was wondering about your Bridge game. I was hoping that it was a basic game, without using many conventions. But just now my "partner" bid a 2 club suit! We lost of course.
