@PAULVANDYK From 17 to 47, 'For An Angel' has been the soundtrack of my life. Having Paul van God still performing is a pure blessing.

I work in the packaging industry.
This is absolute bullshit.
100% pure bullshit.
Every package is bar coded.
There is no possible way for the scanner at checkout to distinguish one package of the same item from another.
Why would she fabricate this lie???

What if the person next to you is paying a different price for the same thing? An algorithm decided that. 🏷️💵 Watch to the end to find out how – then go to BanPredatoryPricing.ca and tell every Conservative MPP to vote YES to banning predatory pricing.

@ajphelo So why buy offensive armaments from the United States? Isn't that a threat? Isn't this an arms race? Don't talk about China's threat of force. Because we openly admit that we are using force to make the final solution.

今天我在日本的JAPAN Forward網站上看到一篇文章，談中國「海上民兵」問題。我認為非常重要，想給大家介紹一下。重點可以分三點說清楚：
第一，中國正在把「漁船」變成戰略工具。所謂海上民兵，表面是漁船，實際上則是由政府組織的、接受指揮的「準軍事力量」，配合海警與海軍行動，執行任務。
第二，這是一種「不開戰的戰爭」。這些船不開火，但長時間在海上活動，干擾他國、壓縮空間。你如果反制，就可能被指「對民船動武」；如果不處理，就會漸漸失去控制權。
第三，中國正用這種方式改變區域格局。
文章提到，中國曾動員上千艘船集結，這種規模已不是漁業，而是赤裸裸的「戰略部署」，目的在於逐步改變第一島鏈的力量平衡。
這篇文章之所以值得重視，也和作者的背景有關。作者是Grant Newsham，退役美國海軍陸戰隊軍官，曾在日本從事美日安全合作，並長期研究中國海洋戰略。他的觀察，某種程度代表美日安全圈的共識。
JAPAN Forward本身是由産経新聞設立的英文媒體，定位就是對外發出日本的安全觀點。因此，這篇文章不僅是個人評論，也帶有政策警示意味。
對台灣來說，關鍵在於這種模式很可能被直接複製。如果大量中國漁船出現在台灣周邊，看似民間活動，實際卻可能是在進行封鎖或施壓。
簡單說，這篇文章提醒一件事：未來的衝突，未必從軍艦開始，可能會從漁船開始。最棘手的是，它介於戰爭與和平之間。不能不處理，但也很難處理。

Jordan Peterson delivers a quiet gut-punch:
“Don’t underestimate the hole your absence would leave.
Each of us is a remarkable creature with something unique to offer — to the people we love and to the world.
It’s our responsibility to make that manifest.
We move a little farther away from paradise every time we don’t.”
This is serious business.
Your life isn’t just about you. Your presence, effort, and contribution create ripples that affect everyone around you — and the broader world.
When was the last time you felt the weight of that responsibility?
Or the last time someone’s absence left a hole you couldn’t fill?
Your take 👇

“Two years ago more than half of Chinese opposed unifying China and Taiwan by military force. By late 2025, that figure had fallen to 38%…Support for forced unification, under at least some circumstances, had risen from 25% in 2024 to almost half.”

@RulmRazor Don't be so naive. This is more than just a local voter issue in BC—it’s a systemic problem, and BC is just the first province to suffer the consequences.
English
@CNDinshorts It never was - it was always about theft and deceit. Jesus, BC citizens are retards. They follow the rest of the retarded Canadians unabashedly. Eby and Carney should be fucking hung by the neck until they are dead.
English
BC just quietly exposed the real game, and it’s NOT about “reconciliation,” “healing,” or “shared prosperity.”
It’s about shifting control of Canada’s critical resources into a three-way partnership between:
1️⃣ Indigenous leadership structures.
2️⃣ Activist governments (BC NDP + Ottawa Liberals/Carney).
3️⃣ Foreign investors, especially China
This isn’t a theory.
It’s written directly into the FNEMC “China Strategy” document. A 14-page blueprint outlining how BC First Nations should build direct economic alliances with Chinese state-owned companies, Chinese capital, and long-term Chinese off-take agreements.
This is the model the @bcndp is now accelerating! With no public control, no stewardship for British Columbians in any way, and this is not shared benefits.
But what this is a fragmented, foreign-leveraged approval system that cuts the Canadian public OUT of the equation entirely.
For decades, Canada and Canadians at all levels have paid trillions into Indigenous programs, settlements, and lands. For context BC alone holds tens of billions in reserve land value locked up in the reserve program.
Yet instead of evolving the system into a unified, transparent, accountable provincial model, BC and the @bcndp is doubling down on a structure that creates:
1. Two layers of law.
2. Race-based governance.
3. Private deals with foreign governments and corporations.
4. Zero accountability to Canadians
A permanent veto on Canadian development.
5. And now the BC NDP is speeding up “critical mineral projects” that will not be owned by British Columbians, not governed by British Columbians, and not benefiting British Columbians.
They will be controlled through a political pipeline of:
➡ Provincial ideology.
➡ Indigenous governance structures.
➡ China’s long-term geopolitical strategy.
My fellow BC'ERS this is how you lose a province. This is how you lose control of your resources. This is how you lose a country. We cannot pretend this is “reconciliation.” We cannot pretend this is “progress.” We cannot pretend this is “justice.”
This is outsourcing sovereignty under the cover of emotional language and manufactured guilt.
It's about time to end the race-based carve-outs, the two-tier legal system, the external political influence, and the never-ending industry around “reconciliation.”
Time to return to one Canada, one law, one standard, where every community, Indigenous or not, is part of the same national project from villages to towns to municipalities to the provinces, territories to the federal levels.
BC belongs to British Columbians.
Canada belongs to Canadians.
Full stop. Last point, there is only one person and party actually talking about this ina. Proactive and positive way of evolving and ending the corruption - @One_BCHQ @Dallas_Brodie @wyatt_claypool
Let's rally behind real change for BC that will benefit all?!?
Read for yourself and tell me if I missed anything?

在中國出生的加拿大自由黨議員Maggie Chi（迟月）說非公民在加拿大犯下重大犯罪之後，不應該繳交護照，這樣對他們不公平（很多加拿大公民都沒護照吧🙄）
這是要讓在加拿大犯下重大罪行的外國人可以輕鬆跑路。
她的選區Don Valley North有很多中國人，受中國影響很大，前任就是親中的，2025年選舉她的對手就是被香港通緝的港人鄭敬基，結果鄭敬基沒選上，她選上了😮💨

🇨🇳🛂⚖️🇨🇦 : Liberal MP Maggie Chi explains that non citizens should not have to surrender their passports after being charged with a serious crime. Maggie claims it would lead to the stigmatization of non citizens & wouldn't provide equal justice under the Charter. Maggie Chi was born in Mainland China and won the heavily CCP influenced riding of Don Valley North. A riding Joe Tay was running in, as the CPC candidate. The PRC / CCP put a $1 million HK$ bounty on the head of Joe Tay leading up to the 2025 election. Former Liberal MP Paul Chiang said his supporters could collect the bounty if they took Joe Tay to the Chinese consulate. What happened to Joe Tay and the CCP intimidation of the Chinese diaspora in the Don Valley riding leading up to the election, is proof CCP interference is a very serious, ongoing crisis.

Do you truly understand what Japan just gained? As a Japanese citizen, I’m telling you—this moment changed history. Trump's Pearl Harbor joke wasn't an insult. It was the key that finally unlocked something buried deep in the Japanese soul. For 80 long years, we've carried apology and guilt like a permanent shadow—haunted by the past, bound by the Constitution America wrote for us, forever in "reflection mode." He turned that raw wound into a shared laugh between equals. No more endless atonement. No more vassal shadow. The curse is broken. Japan is free now. Thank you, Mr. President. We're allowed to stand tall again—as true partners, not subordinates. The strongest alliance in the world is rising—equals, brothers, ride-or-die. #PhoenixRising

昨天，日本媒體在白宮的一段採訪，引發了一場不小的討論。一位來自朝日電視台的記者，在向美國總統川普提問時，拋出了一個頗具挑釁意味的問題。川普隨即以當年日軍偷襲珍珠港作為回應，場面一度有些尷尬。這段畫面被迅速放大，在網路上流傳，中國的「小粉紅們」尤其興奮，紛紛解讀為「高市首相被打臉」。
但若冷靜觀察，川普的回答其實只是典型的即興反應，他擅長用強烈的語句迅速掌握主導權。這一段小插曲並非此次日美領袖會談的核心，更無法代表雙方關係的實質。如果過度解讀，反而會忽略真正重要的成果。
至於這位記者，我雖未與他共事過，但有不少共同的朋友，也略有了解。他曾在疫情期間擔任中國總局長，對中國議題並不陌生。其所屬的朝日媒體系統，一向對川普持批判態度，對高市首相的親美路線亦多所質疑。
因此，這個提問並非單純出於求知，而是帶有明確意圖：試圖證明美日關係並不緊密，美國重大決策未必與日本充分協商，進而質疑日本的親美政策只是「一廂情願」。
如果川普順勢回答，例如強調美國不需事事與日本商量，那麼，這個問題就會被放大為對高市路線的批判材料。然而，川普並沒有落入這個框架。他用珍珠港回應，雖然帶有一點情緒，但成功轉移了焦點，讓原本設計好的敘事失去支點，也讓提問者陷入被動。
這樣的場景，對台灣並不陌生。我們也常看到部分媒體帶著預設立場提問，試圖引導受訪者說出特定內容，再加以放大解讀。這種做法，與其說是新聞，不如說是訊息操作。
作為媒體人，我始終認為，採訪的價值在於呈現事實，而不是「設局」讓對方出錯。這既是對受訪者的尊重，也是對讀者（觀眾）的責任。
令人感到可惜的是，這樣一次難得的提問機會，本可以觸及更重要的問題——例如美日安全合作、台海局勢，或經濟政策走向。這些才是外界真正關心的議題。

I'm not really a baseball fan, and this is the first year I've paid any attention to it. For the first time, I learned that the Czech players are all amateurs with regular jobs—they only practice after work. What incredible passion! I also saw Coach Pavel Chadim's heartfelt words embracing the world, hoping that sports can replace war. The Czech team is now my number one favorite. I look forward to seeing you guys in every game~
