It is the erosion of professionalism due to online marketplaces platforming kitchen table / mega sellers and warehousers IMHO. My mentor taught me that once a printed book is put on a shelf in the (new) bookstore, it is no longer β€˜fine’.

PM Mark Carney speaks at World Economic Forum in Davos – January 20, 2026
YouTube video by cpac PM Mark Carney speaks at World Economic Forum in Davos – January 20, 2026

Really good speech from Carney at the World Economic Forum today.

Genuinely gives the impression he understands the gravity of the moment, which is why I'm struggling to square it with his actual actions and policy re: the United States.

The drunken river, folks.
Yes, that’s its proper name, since mid C19 (though some have sought an alternative with less character).

I hope you find a good spot! It can be tricky to find the right balance of busyness and affordability. I think we have the population to support more bookstores. (In the opinion of the owner of a Winnipeg bricks-and-mortar bookstore)

JD Vance tweet reads: β€œWhile l'm sure the causes are complicated, no nation has leaned more into "diversity is our strength, we don't need a melting pot we have a salad bowl" immigration insanity than Canada.

The fault lies with your leadership, elected by you.”

Today is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, also known as Orange Shirt Day – a time to raise awareness for the ongoing impacts of residential school and remember the children who never came home.

Pierre Poilievre admitting in the debate that he's going to suspend the Charter of Rights and Freedoms so he can defend the charter rights of the people he deems to be worthy should terrify everyone.

Seeing what's happening in the US with ICE he wants the same thing in Canada

We at the Beaverton promise that, had we been afforded the same absurdly preferential treatment as Rebel News, we would have shut down the post-debate scrums TWICE as quickly and disgracefully.

When I'm watching CPC supporters railing on about how the Liberals are responsible for inflation, I wonder if these poor brainwashed wretches realize that inflation was a worldwide issue, and Canada came out of the pandemic years in better shape than 90% of the world. #cdnpoli #neverCPC #propaganda
