@DigcharS @CanadianPolling Yeah, crazy how we don’t want to visit a country that’s openly hostile towards us…

"I'll never forget when I met [Carney] the first time, the first words out of his mouth: 'I'm more conservative than you.' And I said: 'well that sounds good.'"
Andrew Coyne 🇺🇦🇮🇱🇬🇪🇲🇩@acoyne
Jeez.

@rodmickleburgh People wonder the same about Carney and China. Our PM and his ministers csnt even bring themselves to acknowledge that forced labour in China exists. Odd, don’t you think

i am glad oil is getting through to Cuba, but the Trump's embrace of Russia is getting truly weird....do they have something on him?
The Tennessee Holler@TheTNHoller
Russia sends another oil tanker to Cuba — and Trump will say nothing Putin continues to play in Trump’s face. If you can’t see something stinks there at this point it’s because you don’t want to.

@sarobertsonca Why should someone living in Victoria or Saskatoon be clamouring for ( and paying for) a project like this. Crazy argument
English
Tom Mulcair on Pierre Poilievre's opposition to Alto high-speed rail: "Maybe he thinks he's going to get some votes out of this. But I've rarely seen... that it pays off to be against a big infrastructure project, especially one that Canadians have been clamouring for not just decades, generations."

@TondaMacC @kinsellawarren @robertbenzie @TorontoStar Such a moron. These two clowns have done more damage to Canada in one year than Trudeau did in 10

@PurpleGimp The PM has a history of caving when he speaks with Trump
English
Earlier this evening I spoke with President Trump and congratulated him on the successful launch of Artemis II.
We discussed the courage of the astronauts, including Colonel Jeremy Hansen, the value of cooperation in space, and developments in the Middle East conflict.
English
@DigcharS You think so? I don't see how that's even a remote possibility.
English
@PurpleGimp We’ll find out tomorrow that Canada will help the US in the Iran offensive
English
@MarkJCarney I'm thrilled to see Canada join America in such a historic voyage together in Artemis II. It's going to take more than Trump for all of us to forget how long our countries have looked out for each other. ♥️
English
@MarkJCarney Well done, Prime Minister. As hard as the call was to do, it was still the right thing to do.
English
Hilarious. Using the media to support your actions...
Anita Anand@AnitaAnandMP
Since the beginning of this conflict, I have spoken with all of my counterparts in the Gulf region, met with my G7 foreign counterparts, and travelled to Türkiye, France, the U.K., and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in order to push Canada’s diplomatic efforts. We seek to: • Prevent the loss of civilian life • Reduce the risk of regional spillover from retaliatory attacks by Iran • Mitigate global economic shocks caused by the closure of the Strait of Hormuz
English
@_scottreid @steeletalk Good thing we have a master economist at the helm to see us through tough economic times. With us already at the bottom of the G7 indicators, it can’t get too much worse
English
I must have missed the part where Trump said a ceasefire has been achieved. Or that the US is about to withdraw. This was a non-speech. This was Vietnam. This was a promise that the war will continue for God knows how long. Brace yourselves. The price of everything is going up.
English
The whole Iran war is looking more and more like a gimmick to drop energy sanctions on Russia and pressure Europeans to do the same. A war to make Russia’s much larger war easier and possible to sustain.
Phillips P. OBrien@PhillipsPOBrien
Worth noting that Donald Trump just announced the end of NATO and the Special Relationship in one tweet.
English
@steeletalk It’s a blow to our auto sector. Hundreds of jobs lost and these cars are made with forced labour. You can’t be this uniformed, can you?

@allrockmusic @Music__Mentor Great bands and his work with Pete Townshend on Rough Mix was outstanding
English
Remembering Ronnie Lane, born on this day in 1946. As the bassist for Small Faces and Faces, he helped shape some of the most memorable British rock of the 1960s and 1970s.
What are your thoughts on his legacy?
English
@NightShiftMD @kinsellawarren IMO, the push to return to the office was ill- advised and ill- informed. Glad to see some rare pragmatism the EU here
English
First came the post pandemic push to return to the office. Now this: the energy crisis brought on by Trump will result in more working from home.

🚨 BREAKING: The European Commission has urged people to work from home, drive and fly less, and for EU countries to urgently roll out renewables, as it warned of a prolonged energy crisis as a result of the conflict in the Gulf. Full story: politico.eu/article/europe…
