Other than the power outage, I don’t think so. I’m going up later this week to have a look around. Fortunately the cottage seems to have come through unscathed. Whew!!!

It's simple. Everyone in the US enjoys the protections of the Constitution - even visitors. So if someone commits a crime here, you give them due process here. You charge them here, try them here, and sentence them here. You don't deport them to an offshore torture prison.

In a nutshell:

β€” The Espionage Act contains a provision that criminalizes the disclosure of national secrets through gross negligence.

β€” The law does not require that the info be classified, it refers simply to national defense information.

Arrest them. Immediately.

Universities are caving to Trump with a stunning speed and scope Some of the nation’s oldest and wealthiest institutions are swiftly bending to President Donald Trump, who is acting on longstanding conservative criticisms of universities as elitist and progressive.

"Last week, Vance said foreign students at elite U.S. universities are 'not just bad for national security,' but also 'bad for the American dream, for American kids who want to go to a nice university but can’t because their spot was taken by a foreign student.'"

If you live anywhere else in the world and want to end Trump's hostility, hit the red states HARD. To our allies in the USA, we see you and we know 50% of you loathe Trump.
We will get through this together. It's going to be a rough ride, but we won't abandon you. Help us fight.

Doug Ford to Trump "Do not underestimate Canadians."

Full agreement. Ford cancels LCBO US alcohol purchases, Starlink contract, energy surtaxes are on the table.
Recommends all US products be labelled clearly.
Buy Canadian. Support Canadians.
