EXACTLY. I'm so sick of the framing against Canada as though we're the ones who started this nonsense. The Americans are literally targeting sectors to try and ruin them, and they expect sympathy from us for removing liquor? Fuck off.

PM Carney on the Americans calling the alcohol ban an irritant: "You know what's an irritant? 50% tariffs on steel. 50% tariffs on aluminum. 25% tariffs on automobiles. All the tariffs on forest products. Those are more than irritants, those are violations of our trade deal."

I think from the beginning that Carney and cohorts displayed a lack of class when confronted with the 51st state invitation by Trump. Instead of reacting in alarm and fear, they should have thanked Trump for the compliment, and then assured him we would continue to be close allies and supporters and trading partners. The whole issue would have died down, and we would continue negotiations. Naturally, we would always be open to alternative markets and trading, but if we ebelieve in local, then nothing is more obviously local to canada than the usa. Alternatives would boost our negotiation leverage, and thus price for our product, but antagonism can reduce our market prices even more than they are today. And put us at the mercy of distant trading partnersina namuch worse case than we presently have with our local neighbor.

@AndrewScheer National Posts seems to be one of the most neutral papers. Why are you attacking them? That's dumb. Most other papers are blatantly Liberal biased.

The taxpayer-funded National Film Board spent over $95,000 advertising in the United States to persuade the Academy to nominate a Canadian short film for an Oscar. (It did end up winning).

@kandrusky Still expansion, and a lot of people. Data are drawn only from what's reported, which varies. Isolation does not have to be a sole factor to be a major factor, among other potentially problematic variables. The tolerated standard is the standard.

MAID (Bill 18) is often framed as expanding unchecked – driven by vulnerability and lack of supports. The data tells a more nuanced story. Growth has slowed significantly, from 36.8% to 6.9% annually per 2025 Health Canada reporting. Higher growth early on likely reflected backlog and increasing awareness after legalization. More recent trends suggest stabilization. Federal data also does not show disproportionate use among lower-income populations, and most patients received palliative care or other supports. Factors like isolation and loneliness are often cited – but they are rarely the central motivator. They tend to emerge alongside more fundamental forms of suffering, including loss of function and progressive decline. How we frame the issue matters. Because when policy is built on a distorted or incomplete narrative, the effects don’t fall evenly. @YourAlberta

🚨 FIRST LOOK: The Donald J. Trump Presidential Library is officially here. Over the past six months, I have poured my heart and soul into this project with my incredible team at @Trump. This landmark on the water in Miami, Florida will stand as a lasting testament to an amazing man, an amazing developer, and the greatest President our Nation has ever known. 🇺🇸 These images have never been seen by the public — until today. Enjoy! trumplibrary.org

B'nai Brith Canada@bnaibrithcanada·
Premier Wab Kinew owes the Jewish community, and the public at large, an immediate apology. Speaking at the federal NDP convention, @WabKinew attacked U.S. policy by declaring, “Let the Epstein class fight the Epstein war.” That line was an invocation of a loaded and poisonous antisemitic dog-whistle which has gained traction around north America over the past months. The idea that sinister, powerful Jewish elites are manipulating events from behind the scenes. When public figures reach for that kind of language, they enter the territory of classic antisemitic conspiracy rhetoric, whether they choose to acknowledge it or not. Jews have lived with the consequences of these narratives for generations – the content changes, the narrative does not. Premier Kinew used that frame in a major public address. That is profoundly reckless, and wholly unacceptable from a premier. He must apologize clearly, publicly, and without qualification. He must also undertake formal training on antisemitism, which B’nai Brith is prepared to facilitate, so that he understands the history of these tropes, the damage they cause, and the responsibility elected officials bear when they speak on matters touching Jewish safety and dignity. Leadership requires judgment. On this occasion, Wab Kinew showed a serious lack of it.

🇨🇦 CANADIANS: this is straight-up foreign interference in our country. American billionaires and Big Oil just dumped nearly $6 MILLION into the Fraser Institute: - Charles G. Koch Charitable Foundation: $1.67 MILLION - Aurea Foundation: $1.64 MILLION - Exxon Mobil: $120,000 …and more. They fund the think tank. The think tank shapes the narrative. And suddenly Canadian policy starts sounding suspiciously American. How many of our “independent” voices are actually on foreign payroll?

Hey @jamiljivani did your buddy south of the border @JDVance tell you to pull this stunt? Because it doesn’t fly here in Canada the way it would in the US. We have seen the destruction religious extremism has caused down there. Keep this bullshit out of the HOC.
