People seem to like the ambivalence, presumably because it gives them cover for identifying with Carney.

Yes, we all understand the challenge. But trying (often in vain) to avoid any blowback from a volatile tyrant does NOT take priority over being clear, honest, and up front with the Canadian people about where you are taking us. That's also the opposite of "elbows up".

Gotta say, the USian self-assessment of badness is probably more accurate than the inflated Canadian self-assessment of goodness.

Israel is announcing that the entirety of Dahieh is being ethnically cleansed a day after announcing that the entirety of South Lebanon is being ethnically cleansed.

"Canada is taking the world as it is, not passively waiting for a world we wish to be."
NO. You build the world you want to see actively through applying values to situations and leading.
Passivity is leaving the door open to being dragged into this conflict.
And, again, THE U.S. IS NOT OUR ALLY.
My heart aches for Beirut.
Theyβre still dealing with the scars from Israelβs first bloody invasion and its subsequent attacks following.

The video of a United States Senator joining the violent removal of U.S. marine from a hearing and hideously breaking his arm in a door is an example of what has been unleashed in this country. Theyβre tapping in to get in on the violence.

Well, hereβs the thing about being antiwar as an ethical belief: it means you end up opposing most wars. Almost all of them, in fact. This is quite common in people who have consistent beliefs but looks insane to people who have none, or mostly just believe superior people should make the decisions.

Behind the text is a small white and blue research boat on open water with a man standing on the upper deck near a ladder and antenna structure. The boatβs cabin has windows along the side, and the words βVancouver Aquariumβ are visible on the upper portion of the vessel. The shoreline and distant hills appear faintly in the background across the water.
On this day in 1984, Danger Bay premiered on CBC. Starring Donnelly Rhodes as Dr. Grant "Doc" Roberts, it often focused on environmental issues. The Vancouver Aquarium was featured in almost every episode. It earned 15 Gemini nominations during its six season run.

βͺ"one thing about that Davos speech that appealed was that for all the pragmatism, it felt like Carney still stood for something. In this dangerous world, Canada needs to see clearly what we are dealing with. But we also need to remember who we are," writes @brucearthur.bsky.social

Not to be THAT feminist, but I knew this was the case before opening the article. Men see fatherhood as an abstract milestone that's a proof of their virility, women see the associated costs.
Not to mention that women not being locked into domesticity is the core of the antifeminist backlash today.
Rachelβs reporting on white nationalist hate groups has led them to target her in person and yet she continues to be steadfast. We should all take a lesson from her. Glad to hear youβre safe.

When the powerful speak of a βrules-based international orderβ, they mean rules for others, and impunity for themselves.
All human life has equal value, which is why we need an ethical foreign policy based on cooperation, justice and peace.
