On April 9, 1917, Canadian soldiers began the gruelling operation to take Vimy Ridge back from German control. Under a creeping barrage and through enemy machine gun fire, thousands of young Canadian men laid down their lives. The capture of Vimy Ridge saw Canadians in regiments from coast to coast accomplish more than any previous British offensive in the war. The Vimy Ridge memorial sits atop Hill 145 on land given to Canada by France. Remember Vimy Ridge.

@BobIrvingCJOB Agreed. Those trenches were very close.

Visited Vimy Ridge a few years ago. One of the most moving, emotional moments I’ve ever experienced. The bravery and ingenuity of our Canadian soldiers made me feel so proud.

More than a century ago, Canadian soldiers from across the country stood shoulder to shoulder to achieve a decisive victory at Vimy Ridge – one that came at a profound cost. Today, their legacy endures. It reminds us that unity must be built and that freedom must be defended.

109 years ago today, on April 9, 1917, Canadian soldiers launched their historic assault on Vimy Ridge—an impossible objective that would come to define a nation. 🇨🇦

#LestWeForget It was 19 years ago today that Canada lost six of its finest on combat operations in Afghanistan: #22B Donnie Lucas, Aaron Williams, Brent Poland, Christopher Stannix, Kevin Kennedy & David Greenslade. #ProPatria #wewillrememberthem @2RCR_ @RoyalCdnLegion

The day Canada came of age. Vimy 9/4/1917 - 9/4/2026. 109 years ago today. Photos I have taken over the years.

@saintjavelin Should say 2 weeks…

BREAKING: Trump is demanding European allies deploy warships to the Strait of Hormuz within days.

I don’t know why other fast food chains don’t do this! cnbc.com/2026/04/09/byd…

@GenWhitson @RedChilliBikes Heading to Spain this weekend to get away from the snow...

Weekends approaching. Where's everyone riding? #getoutthere

@FaytuksNetwork Two weeks

BREAKING: President Trump has set a deadline for European allies to provide concrete military support in the Strait of Hormuz, including the deployment of warships, Der Spiegel reports. NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte informed European countries that political pledges made since the start of the conflict are no longer sufficient.

@WarMonitor3 Two weeks?

BREAKING: Trump has set a deadline for European countries to militarily open the strait of Hormuz.

@georgetang2015 @saintjavelin Like they always will, which is correct, NATO is a defensive organization. They did not start this. Why not ask Israel's to help more.

@saintjavelin Absurd of course but interesting to see how NATO countries respond to this (assuming it's correct).

@nevedimka123 How many are left?

@cyclist_andyc Those towpaths are beautiful. Enjoy those days.

Because the sun is out & it’s above 15 degC I was able to persuade my fair weather cyclist wife to join me on a 30 mile towpath ride 🙂

@Rebel44CZ @WarVehicle @GuillimanS At least its a cheap drone

@WarVehicle @GuillimanS Yeah, moving elements have become quite common on decoys of SAM systems and radars

This "Pantsir" looks like a decoy to me

I wonder what the price of gas would be today if Brian Mulroney had not killed the National Energy Program and then privatized and sold off Petro Canada.

@MalcontentmentT @JeffFisch The buff is

@JeffFisch The HC-130J is not "older than dirt."

Yes. Three airframes older than dirt for the life of a downed aircrew. And we’d do it again in a heartbeat.

@TRUMP_ARMY_ When are people going to get their Trump cell phones?

🚨 WATCH: President Trump has announced he will continue to donate his $400,000 annual presidential salary. Additionally, he has personally funded new flagpoles for the White House and covered the costs of the multimillion-dollar ballroom renovation. TRUMP IS A TRUE LEADER 🔥🔥

@MsBehavior @TRUMP_ARMY_ Didn't he say it was being paid for by donations?

@TRUMP_ARMY_ Yet he and his family have made BILLIONS leveraging his presidency; so no, not a noble act at ALL. Y’all are eating shit sandwiches and believing that it’s chocolate because he said so. Wildly embarrassing to witness.
