Hmm. Let’s see … how’s the rental market in Canada doing?

I’m interested as a dad whose kid is going into another year at Queen’s…

What If…

the Avengers Defeated Everybody?

Ugh. The F35s will probably be part of this which will be frustrating

Canada 🇨🇦 has long undervalued any relationship with Mexico

We need a steady diplomatic focus over the next decade to (re)build that relationship

Great time at the Calgary Folk Fest

That was such poor form by Osaka not congratulating Mboko.

And now Mboko giving Osaka her flowers in her moment of victory.

The 18-year-year old all class and grace.

🇨🇦 MBOKO MAGIC IN MONTREAL

Canada’s Victoria Mboko defeats Naomi Osaka 2-6, 6-4, 6-1 to win the National Bank Open in Montreal.

The 18-year-old was fearless. Didn’t quit. And rode the wave of a raucous hometown crowd to a memorable title victory. Outstanding.

VICKI MBOKO!!! 🎾

Wow

Mboko has had opportunities…

That soft touch for the winner of game 3 in 3rd set was niiiiice

It’s between 12 and 13, and divisible evenly by all prime numbers under 100

Spain shuns US F-35 jets as tensions grow with Washington Madrid to purchase European military aircraft in sign of deepening rift with Trump over defence and foreign policy

Spain decides not to buy US F-35 jets because of fears of US political reliability. There will be more of this on.ft.com/41tL4zH via @FT

Will be angry if this comes to pass as other allies move in a new direction

There are still more than a few classics out there that aren’t preachy, or fail in the challenge to not suck

It’s funny. Here in Calgary Centre it felt close-ish during campaign

And McLean went from winning by 11k votes to merely 3k, but a steady 50% isn’t really close

As in Confed, the LPC candidate wasn’t announced until deep in the campaign, not that earlier would make much difference

Oh. Well, fuck

So much for my sense of feeling high and mighty

Work great

And cheaper

one assumes it’s likely that as the 🇺🇸 continues its retreat (as military, economy & culture remain important) that no one country will take the mantle of global leader

Not sure a reconfigured g7 minus 🇺🇸 can capture the economic opportunity or if its competing interests make that too hard

Early to mid-80s covers for Heavy Metal and Dragon magazine were next level inspiration for a lot of the young nerds out there

Opportunity for 🇨🇦

I’m not saying that Canada 🇨🇦 should entice the leading edge of American pharmaceutical & vaccine development from 🇺🇸 to 🇨🇦 at any cost

But I am saying explore what that cost might be

🇨🇦 own portion of patent etc to maintain control?

Congratulations on the upcoming wedding. That’s the most important news

The UCP is fiscally illogical and socially conspiratorial

It’s a frustrating combo

That’s a lot of work from Cat to share some heavy news

And very specific. This woman named Jane had bone spurs?

Honestly, where is the follow up?

Failure not to ask,

“Please help us understand Mr President, if a drug cost $1000/ dose and if it’s been reduced 1500%, what price per dose is it now?”

Could Abe have done any better operating independently? Dunno

An answer all of this might have been for Japan, & G7 plus EU, SK, Aussie etc to work together for a coordinated short-term response

And build a long-term strategy to adapt to the 🇺🇸 Great Retreat. Hope this part is happening
