The Scottish/Irish “anybody but England” enmity is more than a little overblown and exaggerated. I for one, will very happy if England wins their match on Saturday.

The PM needs to explain the math of the Gordie Howe Bridge deal. The tolls were supposed to pay the taxpayer back. Now 50% for the first 15 years is being put into a development fund. The New York Times is reporting that 50% will be controlled and accessed by Americans.

Lindsey Graham advocated for the annexation of Canada and for a nuclear armageddon in the name of Israel. Mark Carney is praising a sociopath who called for the deaths of millions and funded wars that slaughtered countless children around the world

If you’re in the USA and you distrust the FDA under RFK, please know that the Canadian government has very extensive health information on their websites, so when you’re concerned about these outbreaks and such, you’ll find some info on the gov’s Canada.ca website. www.canada.ca/en/public-he...

What the fuck? What’s wrong with Mark Carney? The longer he’s PM, the less I think he understands anything other than a balance sheet, and the more I think PP would have been the lesser of two evils. At least PP would face real opposition. #canpoli #cdnpoli

Nothing says "warrior" more than a white satin blouse with silver embroidery and pearly buttons... (from @sarobertson.bsky.social) #cdnpoli

Donald Trump, JD Vance, Hegseth, Lutnick, Bezos, Musk and all you scumbag Republicans your boys took a hell of a beating. From the headquarters of the EU. Total and humiliating lesson in football. You cheated and you were called out and are a laughing stock.The whole world is watching your decline.

Anyone who thinks that we should find a better way to end games without penalties… I present to you Spain vs Portugal. They should go straight to penalties to put this game out of its misery. They could play for three hours and no one will score.

The only thing that could happen to save the US soccer from a permanent embarrassment is if Balogun doesn’t play. They ruin their tournament if they go ahead. They can’t win with this now. They show what American Exceptionalism really is.

Today’s announcement shows what this federal government will protect above all else: the profits of Big Oil. Read my full statement on the oil pipeline proposal from the Prime Minister and Premier Smith: www.ndp.ca/news/ndp-rea...

I’ve thought about this post often since the Canada-Bosnia-Herzegovina match. What it all means.

Such a cunt

Very important article by Paul Beirne sellinghope.substack.com/p/the-north-... asking some serious questions about the MLS project in Canada. #MLS #CPL #canadasoccer

I didn’t expect to have them. We won two tickets in the CanadaRed supporters draw for the Round of 32 conditional on Canada making it. But the draw I entered for was for Vancouver, if Canada won the group. I didn’t realize, until Wednesday, the tickets would shift if Canada placed 2nd & move to LA.

After 10 days of the Tartan Army, the city of Boston simply refused to let England win

💰 @grahamformaine.bsky.social PLATNER: “Wall Street’s takeover of our economy wasn’t an accident... We are living in a system operating exactly as intended… policy choices made by establishment politicians in the service of people who donated the most money to them. And it needs to end.”

@aftn.bsky.social got the McInnes scoop early eh?

Great to be in Calgary for the Alberta NDP Provincial Council, providing an update on the work New Democrats are doing in Ottawa. While Danielle Smith & separatist voices are putting Alberta’s future at risk, it’s more important than ever that we stand together to protect both Alberta & Canada.

Everyday I’m more violently enraged by this a-hole’s absolute entitlement and arrogance. He thinks he’s the king of Canada. How can anyone still support him? He’s destroying Canada not building it stronger.

Great to meet with reps from the University of Alberta Students’ Union and hear from students about the challenges they’re facing and the opportunities they see. Students are leaders and I’ll keep fighting for accessible, affordable post-secondary education and the support students need to thrive.

Dear Canadians, please keep boycotting US products - see below.

A Vancouver business owns this ⚡️ van, built in Ontario at a plant 🇨🇦 spent half a billion to retool for EVs. Canada Post was looking at buying 10k 🇺🇸 vans instead. Carney’s government didn’t step in. Now they want to convert the plant to military production. We paid for EVs. Carney picked war.

Another reason for throwing out bogus referenda, is to reduce and eliminate foreign interference. Elections Canada regulates election financing fairly. Only an election with a party wanting independence and promising a referendum is an acceptable trigger. #Alberta #electionnow

Smith needs to call an election on the question of a referendum. If a majority of MLA’s support independence they can have a referendum. Why wait. Go to the polls now.

1/ PM Carney’s public service cuts are dismantling food safety in Canada. From food inspectors to agricultural researchers, the government is abandoning workers and the public interest. And tech won’t save us: you can’t algorithm your way out of a listeria outbreak!

Fuckin....... Yyasssss... 💚 🍀

It’s 27 days away. The World Cup vibes have certainly ramped up. #CanMNT

Deeply integrating our economy with the United States is what made Canada so vulnerable to Trump’s bullying in the first place. This isn’t what Canadians voted for. www.ctvnews.ca/canada/artic...

You take the top 3-5 players out of an MLS team and they are no better than CPL teams. The league has a really dire depth problem.

Oh, the people who blow up ships are the bad guys? Huh.

Found one! www.cbsnews.com/news/venezue...

I wonder if he can think of a country that set a really, really bad precedent by blowing up vessels in international waters with impunity.

This is a BIG signal. EVs are now holding value while ICE cars are depreciating up to 5x faster. That flips buyer behaviour. Owners hold longer, new demand weakens, automakers cut production, margins get squeezed. Meanwhile EV demand accelerates. The loop has begun. #RIPICE #EVs #Bettrification

This Alberta Independence referendum is so basically wrong. They should have to win a General Election on an independence platform make their case to the people and then have a referendum. Just like the Parti Quebecois did. Until this happens, it should be shut down. The UCP is the enabler here

Carney fans are really something. He specifically promised to increase and protect CBC funding, then immediately started with the cuts. The Liberal campaign platform is still available online if you want to compare words with action. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Two nights ago, I said Trump had been using our troops as pirates in Iran and a Republican got mad. Well… the president just admitted it. He literally bragged about doing piracy.

Calling on @canadasocceren.bsky.social to go elbows up. I’d like to see my team @torontofc.ca and @cfmtl.bsky.social support the @whitecapsfc.com by issuing an #allforone statement. If you take 1 Canadian MLS team you take them all. Having a joint league has some minimum requirements.

Where is the working class in this economic update? Not invited to the bankers’ banquet.

Canada has already paid an "entry fee" in these negotiations — dropping counter-tariffs and scrapping the Digital Services Tax, a modest tax on the world's most profitable tech giants, at the behest of Donald Trump. Those concessions got us nowhere. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...
