Of course we should & I do - but sadly too few actually listen- but that just makes me want to do it even more.

You'd be surprised at how much of what is said on media gets back to the politicians. What is social media for then - just to say nice things? I really don't understand why you have a problem with people just speaking their minds.

This is disgusting. Rationalizing the bombing of a school that reportedly killed 108 girls.

But since she asked,

"Currently, 161 public schools operate on military installations across the United States."

Yup - like the coup against the democratically elected president of Iran in 1953 - the US never does anything that they don't think they will gain something from. Oil?

I don't trust the Americans any more than I trust the Iranians. Look at how trump left the dictatorship pretty much intact in Venezuela.

The people of Iran are vastly pro-Western & want their freedom & democracy returned, but are met with violent suppression with every attempt.

1999 student protests
2009 Green Movement
Recent protests of 2019.

Canada offers humanitarian support, but this is not our war.

Canteen restaurant on Portland Street

Canteen restaurant on Portland Street

Went out with my friend and her husband and son to the Canteen restaurant on Portland Street, the food was incredible, we all had Oysters, Crab dip (with fresh dill) and the mains were Mussels, Lobster spaghetti, Seafood Chowder and their Burger and Chips. Will definitely return. πŸ˜‹πŸ˜

Of course - never tell the people you elect that they ever do anything wrong & guess what you end up with - the disaster that we have now in the USA. Why do you you think you can't do all of the above? And how do you think good candidates learn to be good? By not listening or learning?

As renown philosopher George W. Bush once sagely opined:

"There's an old saying in Tennesseeβ€”I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennesseeβ€”that says 'Fool me once, shame on . . . shame on you. Fool meβ€”you can't get fooled again'"

I criticize Schumer and Democratic leadership all the time. They suck. But a party that has Zohran Mamdani, Ihan Omar, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, among others, is not worthless by any means. I will not be self-righteously sitting out the midterms. I’ll be voting for Democrats like a motherfucker.

Trump and Netanyahu start an illegal war and the first action they take is killing dozens of young girls in a school. Yet, β€œSchumer” is the number one trending topic on this stupid app. It’s nonsensical. I think too many of the people who post on here have seriously lost their way.

Premier wants to see β€˜gold mine’ airport in downtown Toronto expanded for jets | Globalnews.ca Doug Ford said he'd seen polling to support expanding the Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport to include a bigger runway for larger jet engines.

Doug Ford has another wild idea.
Regional & small jets require at least 6,000ft for take off.
I am not sure of the regs but would think a 7,000ft runway and safety area minimum would be needed.
That is almost double +/- the existing runway length.

The morally bankrupt Trump administration has partnered with another morally bankrupt authoritarian to declare an unprovoked war on Iran, already killing scores of civilians.

We need an immediate vote from Congress on a War Powers Resolution. Then articles of impeachment.
