I love international, Canadian, Ontario, and Toronto politics. I am also a Simpsons fan. If you love international and regional borders, I will love reading your posts. "Yes" to proportional representation!

Beware if Trump starts a purge of his "disloyal" MAGA supporters. youtu.be/MohJLPgutKQ?...

Unfortunately, the potential candidates have not presented their campaign platforms yet.

I generally find my followers to be more meaningful here. Mind you, I do have some sexy mommas following me.

Prediction: Doug Ford will lower the drinking age to 18.

I am amazed that Fox News got a libe interview from Gaza.

Another group had set up a pro-Palestinian video on a wall near Nathan Phillips Square. I do not know if it was part of Nuit Blanche or not.

That's near my home. Ironically, someone else had set up a sound studio inside a streetcar shelter on Dundas St. W. People formed a half-circle around that person to hear his sounds. I don't know if it was officially part of Nuit Blanche or not.

Finally, I will state that we welcome US citizens to visit Canada. To some people: Just leave the MAGA hats and attitudes at home.

That's equal to the eighth floor in the US and most of Canada.

Some US brands try to label goods as "Designed in Canada," which is a BS label. I think Campbell's soup tried that.

I am also doing my best to boycott US goods. It is not always easy as the country of origin is not always clearly defined. In Canada, we have "Product of Canada" (at least 98% Canadian), Made in Canada (at least 50% Canadian), and Prepared in Canada (less than 50% Canadian).

A few months ago, I could understand people taking trips to the US that they booked previously. There is no reason why anyone should book a new trip to the US.

I wish I could join you. However, I am a Canadian who is boycotting visits to the United States while Trump is the dictator.

Trump has gone to the wrong Portland. It's the other one.

I was not pleased with Nuit Blanche this year. The attractions were not centrally located. They were too spread out, which meant I only saw a small fraction of them. If I saw them, they were not impressive. Most lacked an interactive appeal. #topoli #nuitblanche

One of the best Nuit Blanches I attended had everything centralized at City Hall, Queen West and Spadina. Most of the displays were interactive one way or another. It doesn't need to be centralized in downtown Toronto. Scarborough, North York, or Etobicoke could be fine. #topoli #nuitblanche

I found the political humor to be timid compared to Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert skewering Trump.

I found that #SNL 's humor against Trump and Hegseth to be timid compared to Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert's humor against those two fascists.

I think JD Vance hopes that Trump will make it to January 20, 2027. After that, Vance can serve 2ยฝ terms as dictator before he suspends the term limits.

While SNL did make fun of Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth, the humor was timid compared to what Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert dished out.
