Donald Trump has launched a cultural revolution, like China’s Mao. Here is how Canada should respond Whether Trump is at the helm or not, America’s fundamental, inward shift led by the MAGA movement is not temporary and demands a fundamental response from Canadians.

Great op-ed in @thestar.com this morning by Arthur Lam on what Canada needs to do in response to Trump's American cultural revolution. We need Canadian leadership to make strategic bets and reorient the Canadian economy. Read more here: www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Mike Myers on SNL in a “Canada is not for sale” tshirt.

There are a lot of famous Canadians living in the United States. I’ve been wondering when they would start speaking up in defence of Canada. We know it’s a hard thing to do, but they know it’s the right thing to do. I hope Mike Myers is the beginning of a tidal wave.

Are you a Myers or a Gretzky?
