Economic coersion hasn't worked to annex Canada, and it won't work to annex Greenland. This is a good time for people in the EU to join Canada in our popular boycott of US goods and travel, and lobby your leaders to suspend trade and apply sanctions.

@pipsc-ipfpc.bsky.social is on point!

I'm a white canadian descended from settlers. "Old stock", as these disgusting racists say. I consider myself to have way more in common, more fellowship and connection, with any newly arrived or non-white canadian who actually *believes* in our nation, than I do with any of these bigot traitors.

Big shift from a "alright, the party's over freaks" to a "this place rules!" theory of mayoring

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

There is a sociology/physics thesis out there waiting to be written about the interactions between cope and anti-cope.

Under Putin, queer rights and representation in Russia were outlawed in 2013. In 2014, he annexed Crimea. Under Trump, queer rights and representation in America are under attack, and he's out to conquer the hemisphere. Canada funding cozy queer smut like Heated Rivalry is vital national defense.

“In Minneapolis…residents are mired in paranoia as they face what many here feel is an occupation.” @premthakker.bsky.social traveled to Minneapolis to witness the aftermath of Renee Good’s killing and this is what he saw. WATCH: zeteo.com/p/watch-insi...

After an ICE agent shot and killed the Minneapolis mother, conservative media launched an all-out attack on her reputation. Her identity as a queer woman was central to it. www.wired.com/story/the-ca...

And so, yet again, the federal Conservative party is coming out swinging against a deal that is supported by western Conservative Premiers. Poilievre is like a video game character that only has an "attack" button. He is just hopelessly outmatched here.

The name of the game is "Quarantine America". We gotta all just figure out how to exist around them until they sort out their embarrassing fascism outbreak. And then keep them at arms length for the next few generations.

"ICE as a federal jobs guarantee for otherwise-unemployable violent racists and domestic abusers" continues to be one of the more salient analyses of the era.

eat shit

I've been wondering how much the ICE terror campaign in Minneapolis has been permeating Canadian media and public consciousness, especially considering the ongoing Meta news blockade. Glad to see Canadian journalists reporting from the front.

new world order (laudatory)

Glad to see genuine progress here. Carney can negotiate well with people who actually negotiate. Good deal for Canadian consumers and climate and canola. www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

While America regresses into the past, Canada chooses the future.

Our gross ex is still texting us at 2am saying he never liked us anyway, but over all, Canada is really thriving, post-divorce.

In hiding... in the United States. Families are in hiding in the United States. Government gangs are forcing families into hiding in the United States of America.

The countries that thrive (and survive) going forward are going to be the countries that eliminate their dependence on the US. Very glad that our PM understands that.

Pretty messed up how the coverage on CBC right now is like 90% "waiting to see if Trump decides to nuke us over the China Deal".

POV: your on-again-off-again fwb just ditched their toxic codependent situationship and is currently standing in your driveway with a six-pack.

the BYDs are coming

Tossing around bottles of canola oil like it’s Dom

Canada is about to endure some truly historic levels of Conservative derangement following the China Deal announcement. The chuds are *seething*.

This is why you hire the world-class economist to be Prime Minister, and not the guy whose only real job was having a newspaper route once.

GOOD MORNING CANADA!

Alright alright alright! I definitely let my expectations for this trip drift a little too high, but luckily it looks like the PM nailed it! Nice one, @mark-carney.bsky.social!

The ground zero guy for hecking doggo social media gaming is talking like this now

🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide. He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

Ok, I don't want to spoil anything for those who haven't seen it yet, but Starfleet Academy is quite enjoyable so far, and @robertpicardo.bsky.social in particular is *delightful*. Magic to have the Doctor back on screen.

The fact that these bastards think that they can do what they do, and then just like, go to a local dive and grab some wings.... the mind boggles.

American Revolutionary Democracy reinventing itself from first-principles.

They keep increasing the size and aggression of their deployments while targeting smaller and smaller places, because Stephen Miller derives an almost sexual thrill from the idea of masked thugs overrunning an ethnic enclave, but can’t find enough thugs or a neighborhood that’s vulnerable enough

We recently tested ~ a dozen public statements from a diverse set of Democratic elected officials on the murder of Renee Good and this was the top testing one

!!!!!

ICE can be an eternal albatross around the neck of the GOP. A permanent brand of shame and betrayal. "My opponent? My opponent is a member of the party that unleashed ICE terror on America!" is the winning Dem line for the next 100 years. That's why it *has* to be abolish ICE, not paltry reforms.

The tactics and resolve of the Minneapolis ICE resisters is one for the history books. Remarkable organization and discipline, which absolutely highlights the choatic and disproportionate retaliatory use of lethal force by the regime. They are winning the battle for hearts, minds, eyes, and spines.

This is the way, Democratic party candidates. This is the only way.

the main divide right now is whether you think all people are humans or that some people are human and others are animals

I've broken my phone screen twice in the past month, and I do think that is at least partially my brain subconsciously trying to protect itself.

I still can't get over the contrast of Canada working to foster a major diplomatic and trade breakthrough with China at the exact same time as the President of the USA is threatening to declare martial law in Minnesota in order to quell protests over shootings of civilians by federal paramilitaries.

We’re watching Trump radicalizing an entire generation in real time

geopolitics in 2026

It's extraordinarily rare for a political event to break through to such a widespread degree as this. Dems should seize on it! This is resonating big time in exactly the info spaces that Dems struggle to reach, as I try to argue in this piece:

"Abolish ICE" is, and I absolutely believe this, the perfect unifying slogan going into a midterm year. Any Dem who drags their heels on this is gonna find themselves left in the dust. You've got Joe friggin' Rogan calling ICE the Gestapo, for crying out loud. Time to go on the offensive for once.

"... a lot of people inside and outside Canada passed on [Heated Rivalry]. “But the Government of Canada didn’t,” Miller said. “We put three and a half million dollars into it, plus the tax credits... “Not to make a joke but we got a lot of bang for our buck.” lol, ok, that's pretty funny.
