We aren't gonna succeed by sacrificing our values to get trade deals that Trump won't honour anyway. We need to take our business elsewhere.
If the U.S. needs anyone to come burn down the White House again, I know about 40 million Canadians who would be happy to oblige.

We need to massively invest in education, deradicalization, and non-internet third places, so young people stop falling down nazi rabbit holes.
Trump fires anyone who reports numbers he doesn't like, so he is going to drive the U.S. economy right into the ground, while receiving glowing praise from his yes-men the whole time.
The Trump Crash is coming, and will make 2008 look like an overdue library fine.
Good time to divest from the U.S.
All communities of faith or conscience need to come together and demand the abolition of ICE, and the prosecution of all their kidnappers and torturers.
It's not enough for these despicable cowards to be punished in the next life, they must face consequences in this one as well. Jail, then Hell.
This is the correct energy.
Every single U.S. Republican is a Fascist collaborator, and they should never be allowed to live it down.
Call them the fuck out. Everywhere.
I don't care if this is pandering.
Considering the elevated hate directed at queer and Trans folks these days, the PM marching in Pride is meaningful act.
Thank you, @mark-carney.bsky.social.
(Now let's get trans asylum laws introduced ASAP, ok? Canada needs to help people fleeing MAGA fascism)
If these guys were even *slightly* genuine about their claims to want to reduce traffic congestion, they would be calling to rebuild the NS passenger train network. Not whining about bike lanes.
If you want fewer cars on the road, you need to give people non-car travel options. That's just math.

chart of US job growth, showing +73k jobs in July, far fewer in May and June
Canada (pop: 41.29 million) reporting more job growth than the United States of America (pop: 340.1 million) is the kind of mind-boggling statistic that really backs up what @mark-carney.bsky.social said about our potential to "leapfrog" America.
I'm honestly stunned.
even better!

Canada will thrive if we embrace strategy, compassion, and science.
This is a truly amazing statistic.
Canada has more job growth than the U.S, at 1/5th the size.
We are going to win this trade war.
With advancements in solar, wind, and grid-level storage, the issue of energy scarcity has the potential to become a solved problem in our lifetimes.
It's great to see a Canadian national energy strategy start to emerge, and especially great that NS offshore wind power might play such a key role.
It doesn't matter if I agree with the premise of your article or find the content interesting. If there is an AI generated picture attached to it, my brain immediately files it into the "slop" category, and scrolls past.

Fixed it for you!
02.08.2025 11:11 — 👍 6 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0The coverage is still laughably tiny, compared to the equivalent media feeding frenzy re: Biden being old. But still, it's encouraging to see some reporting start to finally address the unavoidable fact that the President of the United States has a brain that is rapidly turning into soup.

C'mon, people. The Internet is for more than just suffering.
The U.S. trade war hinges on Trump tantrums, tariff threats, and economic blackmail. It's an international shakedown. Exactly what one might expect from a gangster state.
But all it accomplishes is driving away former allies and trading partners. In the end, the U.S. will be isolated and bankrupt.
Nice Fascism you got there. Would be a shame if it were to be doomed to failure due to a constitutional inability to objectively analyze reality.

When I was a boy I was taught to think of Englishmen as the five-meal people. They ate more frequently than the poor but sober Italians. Jews are rich and help each other through a secret web of mutual assistance. However, the followers must be convinced that they can overwhelm the enemies. Thus, by a continuous shifting of rhetorical focus, the enemies are at the same time too strong and too weak. Fascist governments are condemned to lose wars because they are constitutionally incapable of objectively evaluating the force of the enemy.

Trump is going to drive the U.S. economy into the ground, and get glowing praise the whole time.
We're now at the point where when Dear Leader doesn't like the stats, he finds someone with stats he likes.
This is how Fascist governments collapse. The leaders surround themselves with groveling yes-men who provide flattery, but no connection to objective reality.
Trumps bunker era approaches.
