Foreigners starting when exactly? Green card holders? Migrants? Refugees? Nationalised citizens? First generation? Where does it end? If I was First Nations, Iโ€™d be setting up a campaign!

Natureโ€™s engineers. We would do well to let them do their job and emulate them in our own constructions.

Great article! Thanks for the laughs.

Not ok! @gardaworld.bsky.social, is the value of your soul, your dignity, your reputation a mere $8 million? I hope for your sake it covers the value of the contracts youโ€™ll be losing here in Canada. Nothing is โ€œjust businessโ€ anymore, not when it comes to abetting the stealing & torture of people.

DJT is trying to drag us all down into his stinking swamp of corruption & hate. Get the divorce, walk away with our dignity intact, find new partners, peacefully live out the rest of our lives without all this forking drama!! Anyway, canโ€™t the #1 country in the world take care of its own border?!

@mark-carney.bsky.social, will Canada ratify the High Seas Treaty? If we donโ€™t ensure the protection and health of the #oceans, nothing we throw money at will keep us safe. A dead ocean is a dead planet. Please make the ratification of this treaty a priority.

Are we really doomed? Is it too late to do anything about climate change?

Want women to have children? Clean up the environment, solve climate change, and give young people HOPE that the future is worth living in. Oh, and cover the exorbitant costs of childbirth and healthcare. Easy peesy.

Bravo to the Episcopal Church for not bending under the pressure of tRump alternate reality. South Africa is a country in search of balance after centuries of cruel racial discrimination that greatly benefited the โ€œwhitesโ€. Losing oneโ€™s overinflated privileges does not constitute a genocide.

Hey Secretary Sputnik, Canada LIKES our โ€œsocialistโ€ system. We pay a lot of taxes but we know they go to paying for things we want - childcare, top public education, healthcare, social supports that you, in the USA donโ€™t have. Many of your States pay a lot of taxes too, but what do THEY get for it?

What do you call someone who canโ€™t take NO for an answer?! NO means NO!! Not โ€œmaybeโ€, not โ€œperhapsโ€, not โ€œyesโ€. It means NOOOOOO! It really means NEVER!

Honestly, tRump and all Americans need to understand that, in fact, Canada is the one subsidising the USA!! We sell our oil at a friendsโ€™ discount and our raw materials too. I call bullshit on the USA not needing anything from Canada. If itโ€™s true then LEAVE US ALONE!!! #TrumpTarrifs #51st

PM Carney said that Trump is a great negotiator. I would argue that he is not. He is a great Dominator. Negotiation demands exchange, discussion, respect, compromise. Domination is forcing the other to accept through fear, threat and power over.

Letโ€™s be clear. What #Trump calls a trade โ€œdeficitโ€ between Canada and the USA is Canada selling its oil to the USA at a โ€œfriendsโ€™ discountโ€. We need to charge the USA the full price. No more freebies. Stop this fake argument that tRump uses to warrant annexation of a sovereign country. #elbowsup

Exactly, and others are being pulled over by troopers, have their cars sniffed by drug dogs for fentanyl and then asked which country is best, Canada or the USA. I mean, when youโ€™re sitting in a trooperโ€™s car, what the hell are you supposed to say!? I plead the 5th, I guess.

In Canada, the government hasnโ€™t yet put out an official warning for Canadian citizens not to travel to the USA, although some MPs have. We are en masse choosing other destinations that allow for freedom of thought and speech. Canadians are being asked by USA officials which country is better!!

Ditto. And his cronies are no better. But we humans need comparisons in order to understand ourselves & the world. Weโ€™re getting to see just how awful & destructive greed, selfishness & lack of empathy is. As a result, weโ€™re reevaluating our Values. Who do we want to be?

Billions of $ gone from the US economy just like that. Youโ€™ve never seen anything like it. Disastrous.

Republicans in Congress have declared that the rest of the year will be the equivalent of one day (yup. They did that to avoid a vote on #tariffs). There MUST be a provision where their constituents can fire them and force an early election! They are clearly refusing to do their jobs!
