Unbelievable. Although i do believe it. MAGA North, that's who she and her cronies are. I find them despicable.

Greetings and blessings to Muslim friends as you begin Ramadan tonight; may it bring you a sense of closeness to God and to your community. This year Christians will be a day behind you; we begin Lent tomorrow. Ramadan has a bit more 'oomph' than Lent, though!

Beautiful, but also hard.

Just finished reading @charlieangus104.bsky.social's book 'Dangerous Memory: Coming of Age in the Decade of Greed' a brilliant autobiographical look at the 1980s in Canada. Five stars out of five.β

Hint: 70% of our trade is with the US, and you can't pivot that overnight. Something to do with sharing a four thousand mile border.

'Inclusive Evangelicals' picked up my blog post 'Be More Radical'.

1. I wonder why Canada might see China as a more reliable trading partner than the USA?
2. Trump doesn't learn - the fastest way to unite Canadians behind our PM is to insult him by calling him 'Governor Carney'. The last time he called a PM 'Governor', Carney came from behind and won an election.

βEarlier there were a lot of priests, for they died and had to be replaced. But Jesusβ priesthood is permanent. Heβs there from now to eternity to save everyone who comes to God through him, always on the job to speak up for them.β
