Whatever mis-steps this president is making, the United States itself will recover relatively rapidly from this war.
The same cannot be said for the UK and Europe. I fear we will soon find out why America is the indispensable nation ๐

Important. The same kind of talk Oppenheimer was getting, and ignored, before Hiroshima. #AI #cdnpoli

I thought about doing this without any jokes, something I've never done here in 23 years, to impress upon people how much different I feel this issue is from any I have ever covered.

@semafor @howardlutnick @semaforben Fuck off, Nutlick. We take that as a badge of honour. Sounds like you need a vacation, maybe on an island somewhere ....

NEW: Premier Doug Ford's taxpayer-funded private jet is already being called the "gravy plane" by the Ontario Liberals who question whether the need is justified.
Here's a look at what the luxe plane looks like

Probably worth noting that Canadaโs foreign affairs minister (and other ministers) mostly fly commercial internationallyโฆ
Also Finnish President @alexstubb was on my United flight Monday from Dulles to Ottawa. (I went for a funeral).
Not sure why the Premier needs a jet.

Prime Minister @MarkJCarney and I had a warm and productive first conversation today.
I shared the NDPโs concerns about the cost-of-living crisis facing Canadians, including the creepy practice of surveillance pricing.
I raised the urgent need to stop the privatization of health care by dusting off and actually enforcing the Canada Health Act. And I reiterated our position that Canada must take a clear moral stand against illegal wars (and the countries that start them) in this age of impunity.
It was a forthright and friendly exchange โ and it made me feel encouraged about the prospects of a little old school respectful political debate in this country.
Maybe Iโm just nostalgic for the kind of politics I've watched my parents practice throughout their lives โ always soft on people, hard on the issues. I think thatโs what the country needs right now.
But honestly? I donโt see politics in terms of access to the powerful. Making the changes we need depends on how much momentum we can build behind solutions that confront power and benefit the 99%.
Thatโs the real work. And itโs going to take all of us.
