I don't know where you're buying your groceries, but all the grocery stores in BC have great whacks of products labeled "Made in Canada". I'm able to shop for most of what I want from those shelves.

Um....you don't get to award yourself Most Favored Nation status. Other countries have to give that to you. The US already has MFN status with all of its trading partners.

The Conservatives just came dangerously close to making election rigging claims (and I've got proof) I also have a little programming note for you all! I'm going to be off next week. πŸ’ž

This is deeply concerning. Conservatives are now questioning election integrity in Canada, taking a play straight out of the MAGA handbook. Let's shut that down right now! rachelgilmore.substack.com/p/the-conser...

Really? I'm in Canada, plenty of frost here, and mine has taken over an entire bed and is now making inroads on the lawn. I've discovered you can mow it and it actually feels nice under bare feet. Bees love the flowers too!

China pivots from U.S. to Canada for more oil as trade war worsens Chinese refiners are importing record amounts of Canadian crude after slashing purchases of U.S. oil by roughly 90 per cent amid escalating trade tensions.

China is buying record amounts of Canadian crude oil too. www.bnnbloomberg.ca/markets/oil/...

Did you know that Idaho Fish and Game dropped beavers out of a plane and parachuted them into the backcountry to help relocate them into a better habitat?

John Marriott then alerted rescuers to the plight of the kittens and they were rescued. They are currently being kept safe and healthy at the Calgary zoo. So fortunate that John witnessed the hunters and was able to save those babies!

If there was ever a time and place for strategic voting, this is it. Just checked the tallies at 338canada.com and if the NDP & Green voters threw their votes behind Fanjoy, he would beat Skippy.

Rage is the new Canadian mood. And there’s a strong case for staying good and mad National rage might be just the emotion we need right now, but, as history tells us, there’s an art to anger

As I recall (Americans can correct me if I have this wrong) George W. Bush "borrowed" a huge whack of money from Social Security to fund the invasion and occupation of Iraq, and never paid it back. That could never happen with CPP.
