That letter has not gone over well with some of his fellow Conservative MPs, who are now facing uncomfortable questions from their own constituents about why they are willing to accept a roughly $10,000 salary increase set to take effect in April. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Trump is threatening to block construction of a publicly owned bridge connecting Detroit and Canada, despite supporting the project in his first term. A billionaire who privately owns a competing bridge met with Howard Lutnick just days before Trump announced his opposition. Funny how that works.

Declaring today a news‑free day. I’m giving myself a break from the constant stream of current events just to protect my sanity. Everything is just so depressing.

About 41% of NHL players are Canadian, 29% are Americans, and 30% are Europeans. Even though most teams are located in the US, it's still a Canadian dominated sport, no matter what Trump says.

Bad Bunny for president!

Six fishermen who cast a line in the frozen Saguenay River in the Canadian province of Quebec worked for more than two hours to reel in an Atlantic halibut that broke local records. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/07/w...

Trump should have said: "Russia wants to see Ukraine succeed, but only as part of and under the control of Russia." That's Putin's goal.

It doesn’t get any more disgusting than this.

“Pierre Poilievre no longer has majority approval in Alberta and Saskatchewan.” Quebec is the most anti-Pierre Poilievre province in Canada

Congress should pass a law that makes it illegal naming any public building, infrastructure or program after living elected officials. Otherwise, it's an abuse of power and self-promotion. It's shameful.

Excellent article. You can read it here archive.ph/ZZouR

‼️ Don’t stop talking about the Mariupol massacre of 2022! 🔽🔽🔽

Trump has repeated the lie about the 2020 election being rigged so often that he now believes it himself. That detachment from reality suggests a level of delusion that raises legitimate mental‑health concerns. How can Trump run a country when he no longer recognizes reality?

Matawa Chiefs' Council formally rejects the transportation of nuclear waste through the Matawa territories and homelands via a submission to the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada. www.matawa.on.ca/matawa-chief...

More and more, the American oligarchy, once content to operate from the shadows, has stepped into the light, no longer hiding its intentions. It seeks to anoint an authoritarian government designed for its own benefit, accountable only to itself and not to the citizens of the country.

It's time for Canada to legislate social media platforms to hold them accountable for the hateful and racist content they distribute (as in EU). Time to also revoke broadcasting licenses of foreign news channels that promote hatred (e.g., Fox News), this content is already contrary to Canadian law.

Conservative MP Jivani heads to Washington to negotiate? www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

I agree that the man is a joke. As for taking over the Kennedy Center, Trump doesn’t even seem to grasp how pathetic it is to plaster his name onto another man’s memorial. It’s one of the most shameful things he’s done in recent weeks.

Hidden car door handles should be banned everywhere.

#Haiku about winter Frost hardens the fields, moonlight sharp as frozen stone, Erasing warmth and sounds.

#NeverPoilievre and I'm not alone according to polls. 🇨🇦

The MAGA movement resembles the Grizzly Man story: years spent believing they understood the beast, that Trump is, insisting they were safe at his side, only to discover too late that the man they trusted had turned on them without warning.

Shame on CTV and Vassy Kapelos for lending credence to this utterly unhinged and treasonous clown.

“Mark Carney maintains a high and stable approval rating.” Approval of Mark Carney increases to 64%

Irony: Trump is suing taxpayers for $10 billion after his leaked tax returns showed he was paying almost no tax at all. He paid $750 in federal income taxes in 2016 and 2017, and no federal income tax in 10 of the 15 years before his 2016 election. That’s the real scandal.

#Haiku about a snowflake. Drifting through cold air, Singular among its fall, Silent, brief, and white.

Rewatched Alan Parker's Mississippi Burning, starting Gene Hackman, Willem Dafoe, Frances McDormand. The movie somewhat mirrors today’s US climate by highlighting racial violence, corrupted policing, federal–local clashes, silenced Black voices, and the persistence of power and polarization.

As Black History Month begins, we honour the brilliance, resilience, and creativity that continue to shape our world.

Favorability for the Melania documentary is directly proportional to the viewer’s level of right‑wing indoctrination. The higher the favorability, the more complete the MAGA brainwashing.

Why is Pierre Poilievre still refusing to get a national security clearance in these trouble times?

Great news! 📰 Pierre Poilievre, a career politician, who never passed legislation, lost a 30 point lead in the polls, lost the federal election, and lost his own seat, just won re-election as Conservative Party leader because conservatives love the lies he spreads! www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Canada is the democratic frontline. Dark actors are trying to undermine our sovereignty and break the country apart. All politicians must step up. Why is Pierre Poilievre refusing to do his part? His refusal to get national security clearance is irresponsible. substack.com/@charlieangu...

I’ve always questioned the intelligence of conservatives and I still do consider they still vote for pp who will not get a security check, what is he hiding and why are the conservatives protecting him?

Montréal's blue-collar workers will strike on Wednesday, February 4th. Municipal administration has stated that essential public services such as snow removal, road repairs (🤣🤣), cleaning of public spaces, etc.will be maintained during this period. #Montréal #BlueCollarWorkers #Strike

Did you know ICE (US Immigration and Customs Enforcement) operates out of the US Consulate General in Montreal (and other Canadian cities)? ICE maintains a presence in Montreal to handle cross‑border coordination and consular‑level immigration liaison work, not to conduct enforcement in Canada. 🇨🇦

How many times have the media pushed the Trump pivot narrative only to later conclude that he's incapable of change?

#Haiku for a wild flower Petal in the wind, holding sunlight for a breath, the world pauses here.
