There is no place in Canada for this right wing nonsense.

Right wing agitators posing as journalists with no objective other than to disrupt creditable reporting for partisan and monetary gain.

I think Iโ€™ve officially become a cat lady. (Iโ€™m okay with that!) We welcomed another kitten into our home, Uni. He and his brother Goji have become fast friends while our older cat, Taivas isnโ€™t too crazy about the new additions. #tonkinese #cat

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.

Rose Girone, who was believed to be the oldest survivor of the Holocaust, died this week at 113.

She fled Nazi Germany in 1939 with her husband and baby only to be forced into a Jewish ghetto in Shanghai. Still, she would often say, "Arenโ€™t we lucky?"

From @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social. "If youโ€™re always consumed by the next outrage, you canโ€™t look closely at the last one. The impression of Trumpโ€™s power remains; the fact that he keeps stepping on rakes is missed. The projection of strength obscures the reality of weakness. Donโ€™t believe him."

๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ I am thinking about Canadian Ambassador Ken Taylor, our lead diplomat in Tehran at the time of the 1979 Iranian revolution. And how he and his wife, at no small risk to themselves, sheltered and hid 6 Americans, for 3 months, who managed to avoid being kidnapped as the US embassy was overwhelmed.

In response to the American tariffs, I have directed government and crown agencies to exclude US suppliers from any new purchasing or procurement agreements.

Itโ€™s just one of the actions we are taking to prioritize Canada first.
