On the left: a collage image of Danielle Smith, Kevin O'Leary, and Wayne Gretzky (in grayscale) surrounding Donald Trump who is in a red monochrome. On the right: text that reads β€œHave you heard the one about Kevin O’Leary, Wayne Gretzky, and Danielle Smith walking into Mar-a-Lago? It’s a joke that ends with three Canadians helping Trump meddle with our sovereignty.”

β€œWhen it comes to being a traitor, you could say this guy is β€˜The Great One.’”

A few prominent Canadians have been eager to kiss the ring when it comes to Donald Trump. But for author and comedian Mark Critch, one name rises above the rest: Wayne Gretzky. thewalrus.ca/kevin-oleary-way...

A crowd of people facing away from the camera, looking towards a wall of windows with blue metal beams behind them. It's dark out. On the stage are Mark Critch and former MP Seamus O'Regan.

Kevin O’Leary, Danielle Smith, and Wayne Gretzky have all flown to Mar-a-Lago to cozy up to Donald Trump, leaving Canadians questioning their loyalty. @markcritch.bsky.social puts it plainly: β€œIf you don’t like being called a traitor, maybe stop acting like one.” thewalrus.ca/kevin-oleary-way...
