It’s looks like Marjorie Taylor Green was likely telling the truth when she reported that Trump told her that his friends would be hurt if the Epstein files were released.

Has anyone thought about how this campaign could upset the operation of the dairy industry? If more people choose whole milk, less butterfat will be available for butter and cream. If supply is decreased for those food products and demand remains the same, prices will rise and shortages may occur.

Take a good look at the graph: about half of the spike occurred before the pandemic even started. The rise started around 2016.

Mine was 10 and my doctor said, “Your haemoglobin is fine” but did agree that I should start supplementation. My next visit was with the family medicine resident who was doing a rotation in his practice and she said that I should get it above 50.

Or the US and Russia are in collusion. Putin has stepped up the bombing while Trump is throwing out distractions so no one can keep their eyes on the ball.

I suspect that the oil companies have no interest in rebuilding Venezuela’s oil infrastructure unless the US gov’t subsidizes them.

Do I ever hope you’re correct. You are the expert and I defer to your expertise.

If fewer kids get the flu vaccine there will be more absences from school and more hospitalisations. Interesting how many of those against covid restrictions lamented about the educational loss when kids were being taught remotely. When the rate of disease goes up, more instructional time is lost.

Yes, chuckling here thinking about attempted bribery of Elections Canada.

How is a donation going to help win recounts? Make it make sense.

Yes, a very good outcome. If anyone can handle Trump, Mark Carney can. I don’t expect miracles and am prepared for turbulent times. I have utmost sympathy for Americans.

I’m a Canadian who supports PBS and will continue to do so.

We also need a Speaker. Elizabeth May would be a good choice.

I’m in BC so I’m hoping that the Maritimes, Quebec, and Ontario have clinched it once their results are known. Just getting on an inter island ferry to scrutineer for the Liberals at the vote count. We’re a highly polarized riding with a vote split.

My 52 yo daughter has 3C because she had to have part of her pancreas removed because a benign cyst was leaking and causing severe pancreatitis. This is a situation that she could not prevent.

I’m a Canadian who discovered CIDRAP during the early days of the covid pandemic. I know that you and CIDRAP are even more important now during the absolutely horrifying dismantling of research and public health.

Backyard flocks are being infected as well. Factory farming certainly makes the chickens more vulnerable with the crowding and stress. The pathogen has to come from somewhere. It doesn’t spontaneously just appear.

I can never keep this straight - do the tariffs move forward or back tonight?

Wild birds that are the source of the virus are dying.

Poilievre has never had a real job and has no understanding of what the real world looks like or what labour truly means. A vote for Poilievre is a vote against Canada! #CNDPoli #cndpoli

Trudeau: "We're probably gonna keep booing the American anthem. But let me tell Americans: we're not booing you ... we're booing a policy that is designed to hurt us. And we're insulted ... we're gonna fight. And we're gonna win."

Trudeau: "Every country is very aware that if the American government is willing to do this to their own closest ally, neighbor, and friend, everyone is vulnerable to a trade war."

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

🤣 77 as well.

I’m a Canadian senior.
Until Trump took the presidency in 2016 I had seldom used anything worse than “damn”. JFC and the f… word have now become part of my daily vocabulary.

🚨 Breaking News: After yesterday’s Oval Office ambush on Zelensky, Norway’s Haltbakk Bunkers, one of the country’s biggest marine fuel suppliers, announced they won’t be refueling U.S. Navy ships anymore. And they’re telling other European companies to do the same.

Welcome to Bluesky, Sue.

If you're Canadian and not following Charlie, do yourself a favour and start!

How is talking to Americans who are NPR listeners helpful? They are overwhelmingly liberal and will likely be supportive and sympathetic but have no power. They aren’t the audience we need to reach.

That’s true. The US is to us what Russia is to Ukraine.
