36 years on, and the Chinese government still seeks to erase the memory of the June 1989 #TiananmenMassacre.

"When the students poured into Tiananmen Square, the Chinese government almost blew it. Then they were vicious, they were horrible, but they put it down with strength. That shows you the power of strength." -- Donald Trump, 1990

MD here:

Be wary of Poilievre. He is not just going after PM Carney’s child as a one-off political attack. He’ll go after the health care rights of all 2SLGBTQ+ He’s a threat to our patients, families, colleagues.

As PM Carney said to Barton, look inside yourselves.

Keep bigotry out of Canada.πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

Canada: let's not authorize cynical removals of environmental regulation against bad logging & mining etc. in the name of "response to tariffs." It is so easy to see this coming. The US isn't the only place prone to oligarchs creating disaster capitalism they can profit from. 🧡 #cdnpoli #bcpoli

NEW: Canada’s new PM, Mark Carney, has just delivered what sounded like a wartime speech, savaging Trump & the US.

"These are dark days brought on by a country we can no longer trust. We are getting over the shock, but let us never forget the lessons. We have to look after ourselves."πŸ’₯

What happens next?

Carney will be invited to form a govt by the GG.

Carney will be the Prime Minister-designate during a transition period (could be really fast or a few days).

Once the transition is over, Trudeau formally resigns as Prime Minister, and Carney is appointed PM.

A massive story in Canada is that damn near the entire country is turning on national God Wayne Gretzky because he refuses to stand up for Canadian sovereignty due to his desire to keep getting invites to Mar A Lago. An entire country choosing dignity over star-f*cking. We could take a lesson.
