@nbcsnl Love how this captures the fun they were having in space :). It inspired my daughter to want to watch even more of the IRL astronaut interviews! I just wish we could watch it on YouTube!

@ItsDeanBlundell Maybe Carney should sue them for slander (although he has better things to do like running the country)

🚨1/ A right-wing group tied to Pierre Poilievre is running attack ads linking Prime Minister Mark Carney to Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking ring. Canada Proud is spending hundreds of thousands fueling baseless smears. Even more ironic? They’re suing me for… “slander.” 👇🧵

@1goodtern @ABDanielleSmith - he has likely started in Alberta. What is the government doing to prevent this?

A week or so ago, I posted here to say that Trump's play for Canada would be more Anschluss than Blitzkrieg. That upset Canadians who don't know much about the Anschluss.

"Canada's wood is just longer, harder, thicker, and uncut. We should just let their wood come all over America."

This is the Canadian heart.

Interesting statistics. Good to know the US committed to working with Canada on a joint task force to protect the border so they can stop sending irregular migrants, fentanyl, and guns. #CanadaUSTradeWar

Je viens d’avoir un appel productif avec le Président Trump. Le Canada met en œuvre notre plan frontalier de 1,3 milliard de dollars — on renforce la frontière avec de nouveaux hélicoptères, de nouvelles technologies, plus de personnel, une coordination accrue avec nos partenaires américains et plus de ressources pour lutter contre le trafic de fentanyl. Près de 10 000 agents sont et seront sur le terrain pour protéger notre frontière.   En plus, le Canada prend de nouveaux engagements. On va nommer un Tsar responsable de la question du fentanyl, ajouter les cartels mexicains à la liste des entités terroristes, s’assurer qu’on garde un œil sur la frontière 24 heures sur 24, 7 jours sur 7, et lancer, avec les États-Unis, une force de frappe conjointe sur le crime organisé, le trafic de fentanyl et le blanchiment d’argent. J’ai aussi signé une nouvelle directive pour les services de renseignement, axée sur le crime organisé et le fentanyl, qui sera appuyée par un investissement de 200 millions de dollars.   Les tarifs douaniers proposés seront mis sur pause pour au moins 30 jours, pendant qu’on travaille ensemble là-dessus.

@globeandmail Facts: “The Canadian bank regulatory regime certainly does allow U.S. banks to have operations in Canada,” said Christensen.
“Establishing a Canadian subsidiary of a foreign bank is the same process as establishing a domestic bank. It’s the same approvals and the same process.”

Fascinating: An American encouraging Canada to turn off the power… @JustinTrudeau @fordnation Check out ThatB🫶tch's video! #TikTok vm.tiktok.com/ZMkq3yqRg/

@PierrePoilievre We know how you feel about Trudeau. Please put partisanship aside and focus on a united front. You guys seem to be aligned on your response and we need all of our leaders to show up together. I hope the silver lining in all this is we can be stronger as a country & buy Canadian

We need a new trading partner. This country is the one 👇

This truth about Canada vs. the United States needs to be reposted over and over!! #CanadaUSTradeWar #BuyCanadian

Starting today and until U.S. tariffs are removed, Ontario is banning American companies from provincial contracts. Every year, the Ontario government and its agencies spend $30 billion on procurement, alongside our $200 billion plan to build Ontario. U.S.-based businesses will now lose out on tens of billions of dollars in new revenues. They only have President Trump to blame. We’re going one step further. We’ll be ripping up the province’s contract with Starlink. Ontario won’t do business with people hellbent on destroying our economy. Canada didn't start this fight with the U.S., but you better believe we're ready to win it.

America is under attack.

Lists are already circulating of Canadian alternatives to US products. Here’s one.
