🇨🇦 Unapologetically Canadian. Welcome to the wild west. Zero tolerance for lunacy.




Indeed. We visited Europe annually. Brussels, London, Paris and Rome are pretty far gone. In Bolzano, Italy, high in the mountains, there is a park, we were told its a no-go zone. In Milan, doorman said dont go near the train station you will get harrassed. London seemed the worse. So we both said we would never go back. We are discussing Chile, Argentina and Uruguay, full of European expats. I think they become the new Europe for Americans. Buenos Aires feels like Europe so I can easily seeing this play out as Europe increasingly seems headed to civil war and street violence is used to usher in the new surveillance state.








@marcjoffe @Eric_Blair_2000 The family home I grew up in was $100k in the 1980s in Northampton and before that we were in an apartment in Bensalem.

🚨TRENDING: A player in the Canadian Premier League celebrated a goal by promoting his 2nd job: Tomas Skopala took out his real estate agent card, showed it to the camera & told people to call him. x.com/Hayderljoz/sta…

This H-1B worker has lived in the US for nearly 20 years and built a family here. His mom was dying in India. To visit her, he would need to wait months to book a consular appointment--with the soonest one available likely being scheduled one year out. He made the difficult choice of not visiting his dying mom because leaving without an appointment would mean separation from his children, job, and his other obligations. Much of the commentary around immigration focuses on how such bureaucratic burdens undermine immigrants’ ability to contribute and innovate. But we must remember that this red tape also prevents these people from being fully engaged with their own lives and meaningfully present in the lives of others. This matters too, and these seemingly non-economic problems will eventually translate into economic costs. If America is no longer a place where people feel empowered to be the best versions of themselves as they celebrate, struggle, and grieve, it ceases not just being the land of opportunity, but also the land of dignity and purpose. linkedin.com/posts/gautam-d…





A refugee in Canada gets $5149.11 per month TAX FREE. The average Canadian brings home anywhere from $4100.00 - $4800.00 per month after taxes, and this is on the high side. LET THAT SINK IN.



The deficit is coming down 📉 Home prices and rents are coming down 📉 The GDP is going up 📈 Non-U.S. exports are going up 📈 Why? Because our plan is starting to pay off. We are empowering workers, we are investing in Canada and we are Building 🇨🇦 Strong.





Chief Justice Richard Wagner is refusing to recuse himself from the Emergencies Act case, despite previously calling the Freedom Convoy the “start of anarchy” and saying protesters “took citizens hostage.” He has clearly shown his bias. Now he says there’s “no reasonable apprehension of bias.” That’s a problem. You don’t publicly characterize one side in those terms, then turn around and sit in judgment over them. This isn’t about whether he believes he’s impartial, it’s whether a reasonable person would. Do you or I believe him to be unbiased with everything we currently know? From his comments I don't see him as unbiased on this matter. When the Chief Justice has already framed the conduct as “anarchy,” the answer isn’t complicated. It's a given. Even Mahmud Jamal stepped aside in another case to avoid becoming a distraction, not because he had to, but because public confidence matters. That’s the standard. This isn’t just about one case, it’s about whether the public believes the process is fair. Because once that’s gone, the ruling doesn’t matter. No one will believe his "findings." And we currently have a government that are happy to ignore 'bias' in their favour if it adds momentum to their current goals. #onpoli #cdnpoli
