Retired, dog-lover, blogger, first generation immigrant but a proud Canadian for over 70 years.
It's only 3 weeks since Council approved Lansdowne 2.0 but the City already has a contractor. Another sole-source and even then that is pretty fast? Very suspicious but that's the way the City does business nowadays. Transparency and accountability don't mean much anymore.

This President is becoming increasingly dangerous and a militarist and nobody seems to care. My worry is that with his "Canada becoming the 51st state" rhetoric could in fact be very real. And who is going to stop him?

The USA is so f__ked up that it could be too late to do anything about it without a civil war which won't happen. It is bizarre how a society with a deep history of democratic principles has changed so dramatically in less than 5 months. Even Hitler wasn't that good.

Before you vote today, read Trump's latest rant about Canada posted today at 8:36 in the morning. If you think PP's real agenda has nothing to do with MAGA, think again or we may well become a sovereign nation no more.

People who have endorsed Pierre Poilievre: Elon Musk JD Vance Tucker Carlson Alex Jones Joe Rogan Jordan Peterson Good luck to him trying to paint himself as best choice to deal with the threat of Trump and the American right. These "endorsements" will be an albatross.
