Remember when Trump was pretending that Canada was a major source of illicit drugs? Here's the latest news on that theme. Note: Drugs were coming to Canada from the US. globalnews.ca/news/1161632...

They’ve switched to the other hand. Likely due to vein collapse. Normally they would leave a shunt inserted but they’re probably pulling it every time for public appearances.

Canada, England and Ireland are among the most coveted destinations for those considering leaving the U.S.

Dropsite News is reporting satellite imagery that shows Israel is clearing a vast space around Rafah indicative of a military camp They are building a concentration camp to herd Gazas population. The area outside will be declared a free fire zone and anyone who remains will be exterminated.

You really see how many louts put their dirty feet on the seats in winter. Should result in a year’s ban from transit.

This here is some mind boggling ridiculousness. Parks Canada announced the Register for Historic Places - a searchable database and a cornerstone for understanding heritage places – will be permanently unplugged this spring @willgreavesmp.bsky.social #CdnHist nationaltrustcanada.ca/online-stori...

Jessica Baker was raped by Jacob Hoggard. She got a conviction, he's currently in prison and she says if she had to do it again, she wouldn't. And if a friend was raped, she'd tell her not to report. And this is a woman who by most definitions, "got justice." The system does not serve us.

This is outrageous and must be stopped! CPP has no business lending money to a company that produces child pornography! Full stop! 🛑 www.thestar.com/business/why...

“We are no longer relying on just the strength of our values, but also on the value of our strength.” Classic rhetorical device. I’m told he wrote the speech himself. Bravo! 👏 www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

I just took a ride with Uber, and my driver is from Venezuela. He spent the whole trip expressing concern that the same shift from democracy to dictatorship he saw in Venezuela is happening right now in the United States. He’s absolutely incredulous that Americans are allowing it to happen.

Fuck that noise. Someone actually suggested that I should consider a Dodge Daytona if I was considering a EV! Get real. Nobody in Canada is making EVs like BYD sells.

TACO 🌮

Americans need to come to grips with the reality that the world doesn't see Trump as the threat but America itself.

The people who are mad at Mark Carney for doing a deal with China on EVs are the *same* ones who think Canada should build a bunch of new pipelines to sell oil and gas to...China. Set aside the hypocrisy for a moment and ask: can they not see where the puck is going here?

How it should be done

Leonard Nimoy was more than a colleague—he was a friend, an ally, and my political soulmate. Leonard played a half-human, half-Vulcan officer—a being caught between two worlds. Yet in his own life, he was perhaps the most profoundly human person I have ever known.

Cold today; fine except for onshore snow in westerly breeze. A band of 5cm snow Thursday changes to or mixes with rain over the south. Onshore snow redevelops Friday as a cold strong westerly wind develops, turning very cold Friday night and staying cold thru the weekend with onshore snow risk.

OTTAWA – The federal government is set to launch its new national artificial intelligence strategy soon — but critics say it hasn’t done enough to listen to Canadians and pollsters are warning that a skeptical public wants the government to put rules in place.

Reminder to Canadians: Don’t book connecting flights through US airports

Carney’s AI strategy pretends that you can still work with Microsoft and Palantir(!) and call it a sovereign cloud. You simply can’t. The CFIA knows that the US gutting of their regulatory agencies means it’ll be more work for them to keep Canadians safe. They can’t do that under austerity.

Them’s the rules Toronto. If you don’t want to play by them you forfeit $10M.

THIS 👇 IS A FACT.......

MN Doctor: I learned that Renee Good still had a pulse 8 minutes after she was shot by an ICE agent. Yet the offer to administer aid from a physician on the scene was denied. I can't say how much that stirs the blood of everyone here as we try to fulfill our oath to care for the people of Minnesota

“Today, I’ll talk about the rupture in the world order, the end of a nice story, and the beginning of a brutal reality where geopolitics among the great powers is not subject to any constraints…” Full transcript: www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/spee...

Americans are realizing that unfettered federal power to detain and arrest is a very dangerous thing. I learned that lesson as a child when they put us into internment camps just for looking like the enemy. Don’t go further down this road.

This is the best speech, just from a pure rhetoric perspective - its sophistication and persuasiveness - that I've seen a politician deliver in a good long while. Really recommend watching or reading the whole thing.

China is moving quickly to import Canadian canola and beef after Ottawa struck a deal with Beijing to reduce tariffs, Federal Agriculture Minister Heath MacDonald said Tuesday. 

Found this online 😂 re China EV’s in Canada—such hypocrites 🤭 #Truth

#cdnpoli Not to be a troll or anything but what would Pierre (‘I’ll never set foot in that globalist hellscape called Davos’) Poilievre do if he were PM today and this wild geo-political crisis was playing out in, well, Davos…? Not go? Save on the PMO’s travel budget…?

Important perspective from Greenland.

Let’s turn NS Power into a co-op. Who’s with me?

From Clinton to Biden, democrats or Republicans - Canada has been getting fucked by the United States for years. Trump is merely the straw that broke the camel’s back, but it is time that we break free from our American neighbours and learned to stand on our own. We do not need the United States.

My latest: Mark Carney just delivered the most important speech in recent Canadian history. Now, we wait for the fallout. #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/01/20/o...

If there are self-published CDN authors on this site who use a platform other than Amazon to sell and distribute their books, one that isn't based in the United States, can you let me know what it is? I want to do a blog post to let Canadian authors know what their options are.

They said the same thing about NFTs - “Sure they’re mostly scams and crap, but they’re here to stay!” - but no, they weren’t, and totally avoiding them WAS the right call.

Silicon Valley’s alliance with Donald Trump was a mask off moment and showed the world we can’t depend on US tech companies. For the past few months, I’ve been trying to get off US tech and I put together a guide so you find alternatives too. I hope you find it helpful!

In the wake of the Denmark/Greenland leaders speaking clearly to their population about the risk of a US takeover, we are nearing the time when Mark Carney must speak openly to Canadians about the real and urgent threat they also face. It just hasn't been vocalized by Trump lately. But it's there.

IOW don’t fuck with Canadians.

Lutnick at Davos: "Why are you going to do solar and wind? Why would Europe agree to be net zero in 2030 when they don't make a battery? They don't make a battery! So if they go 2030, they are deciding to be subservient to China." (Get a load of the looks on the other panelists' faces)

Danish pension fund to dump US treasuries "The US is basically not a good credit and long-term the US government finances are not sustainable," says chief investment officer www.investing.com/news/stock-m...

Its deal with #Microsoft on #AI development is not consistent with Canadian gov't policy to preserve "digital sovereignty" since the US gov't would gain control over Cdn data if it wanted to, argues @bhaggart.bsky.social theconversation.com/microsofts-a...
