A Grey

I’m just a Canadian, looking at her fellow Canadians, begging them to connect the dots between rising anti immigrant sentiment and what is happening in the states.

Italian Senator Carlo Calenda left Jeffrey Sachs literally speechless and shocked by calling him a liar and someone who repeats Russian propaganda narratives.

I believe this is exactly how public accountability should work - when a liar is called a liar.

this was bound to happen but it's a great time to bring up my view that we should stop humouring the Provinces' conceit that they have a right to engage in foreign policy.

Some foreign regimes twist and distort online content to divide and weaken societies. They go beyond spreading #disinformation, using subtle tactics designed to deceive.

Black-and-white portrait photograph of a middle-aged man in a formal suit, circa mid-20th century. He has a thin face with prominent cheekbones, wearing wire-rimmed round eyeglasses, short dark hair slicked back, and a serious expression with lips slightly pursed. Dressed in a dark three-piece suit with white shirt and tie, posed three-quarter view against a plain gray background.

On this day in 1904, Tommy Douglas was born. From 1944 to 1961, he was the Premier of Saskatchewan. Among his accomplishments was creating North America's first single-payer universal healthcare program.
He led the federal NDP from 1961 to 1971.

Persons Day October 18 Canada Line drawings of 5 women: Henrietta Muir Edwards, Nellie McClung, Louise McKinney, Emily Murphy, and Irene Parlby.

On this day in 1929, the Famous Five won the Persons Case, affirming that women are “persons” under Canadian law. 🇨🇦
Persons Day reminds us how this milestone helped shape Canadian society in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, including Sections 15 and 28, which guarantee equality for all.

Online consensus? It might be an illusion. Some foreign regimes use bots and fake accounts to simulate agreement or stir outrage.

Every country gets one voice. And we’re listening.

A festive Thanksgiving dinner table featuring a roasted turkey as the centerpiece, surrounded by an array of dishes including green beans, stuffing, sliced ham, and a pumpkin pie. The table is decorated with pumpkins, sunflowers, candles, and autumnal flowers, with wine glasses and plates set for a meal.

Did you know the first thanksgiving celebrated by Europeans in North America happened in Canada?
Or that the Indigenous celebrated autumn harvests long before Europeans arrived?
Why do we celebrate Thanksgiving a month earlier than the United States?
This is the story.

It looks local and sounds independent. But some foreign regimes hide their role by laundering content through fake local outlets and hijacking trusted voices.

He is showing us the dangers of giving in to the politics of rage and hate. Canadians are rethinking our nation and our responsibilities to one another. We are reminded that the values of compromise and tolerance aren’t signs of weakness, but rather a bedrock of strength.

will never understand how Canadians became known for saying “eh” when we should be known for our ability to make the phase “okay buddy” mean everything from “of course I will give my life for yours” to “I am the drunkest man alive and I am going to fight you in this parking lot”

Canadarm2's cosmic catches Catching an unpiloted cargo ship calls for extremely precise work from the Canadian robotic arm.

Canada's Canadarm2 made another successful catch Sept. 18th, grabbing the Cygnus cargo ship and attaching it to the space station.
This is the largest vehicle so far.
Canadarm2 wasn't designed to do this but our techs figured out how to make it work.
