An incident involving a Russian drone in Kyiv last month, which has not been previously reported, set in motion a chain of events that would allow Ukraine to seize the momentum at the front with the help of an unlikely ally: Elon Musk, reports @shustry. theatlantic.com/national-secur…

“Bohunks” and “garlic eaters.”
Some of the popular insults used to describe Ukrainian immigrants to Canada like these👇a century ago.
Many faced prejudice and discrimination because they weren’t “heritage Canadians.”
During the First World War, there were calls for their “remigration.”
Thousands were imprisoned in force labour camps, because they were deemed “enemy aliens,” on the absurd pretext that peasant farmers from Galicia might start an uprising in Canada on behalf of the Austro-Hungarian Empire where they were born!
Despite all of that, they settled and built much of our northern prairies on the toughest farmland, clearing trees by hand, living in mud huts until they could build a house, erecting magnificent onion domed Churches to reflect their unique Byzantine ritual culture.
They and their descendants have been a great blessing to Canada, and are the reason that we have a special connection to that wonderful country.

Bill Browder: War in Ukraine is now only about Putin’s personal survival. He needs the war to stay in power, and he needs to stay in power to stay alive. The destruction of Russia is unparalleled, but he cannot stop. If he stops, he loses everything. 1/

“One of the great things, and one of the wonderful things about The Beatles... they were the first I ever recall White artists to come out and say that they were influenced by Black music and how much they loved Motown... That was so wonderful to hear them come out and say something like that, and giving Black music that kind of a boost to the fans of theirs, who were not aware of that, because we were all Beatles fans, of course, who wasn't. It was great.” - Smokey Robinson

The Dan Ackroyd mini-series from the mid-90’s always made me think, what if Dief chose differently? What position would Canada be in today??

On Feb. 20, 1959, the Avro Arrow program was cancelled by the Diefenbaker government. Thousands of people lost their jobs, and the Canadian aeronautical and aviation sector was decimated. The day became known as Black Friday. This is the story of the Arrow. 🧵 1/12

Awesome.
Mark Carney@MarkJCarney
Met with @PierrePoilievre today. Canada’s new government is moving fast — and we need Parliament to move swiftly to deliver for Canadians. We’ve put forward bills to strengthen bail and sentencing laws, build up a stronger economy, cut costs for the middle class, and protect Canadian workers. This is an important time to be working together, and to pass the legislation Canadians are counting on.

Our family has driven from ON to Cape Breton a few times. As we approach CB, I explain how the town of Antigon burned down 100+ years ago; everyone survived, and they heroically rebuilt the town 2 km over. But it wasn’t quite the same, so they called it Antigonish. #dadjokes
