Canada is home to world-class scientists and researchers. We have a unique opportunity to recruit top US talent amid their recent major research cuts.

What's our plan?

Here’s a thought, why not lift barriers against purchase of Chinese made electric cars and why not slap tariffs on our exports of gas and oil to US. Hit them where it WILL hurt.

WTF!

Wow.

Keir Starmer: ‘Putin is dragging his feet over 30-day Ukraine ceasefire’ Prime minister tells a summit of 29 leaders that the Russian president cannot delay peace talks indefinitely Keir Starmer accused Vladimir Putin of dragging his feet over agreeing to a ceasefire with Ukraine on Saturday as international pressure grew on…

Keir Starmer: ‘Putin is dragging his feet over 30-day Ukraine ceasefire’

Trump walks to Marine One to head to Mar-a-Lago to play golf on the taxpayers dime.

This trip will cost us $3.1 million, which could be used by USAID to feed 710 starving children for a full year.

Predictably, the Russian reaction to the Ukrainian unconditional ceasefire offer is that Russia has a condition: that Ukraine concede its sovereignty to Russia. Now Russia will try to get the Americans to do for them things they cannot do for themselves.

Really appreciated this conversation with Matt Galloway of the CBC. We got to talk about tuberculosis, the implications of defunding USAID, and the future of the disease in a world where human health is not being prioritized.

Ontario is currently experiencing a measles outbreak, with the vast majority of cases occurring in unvaccinated individuals who were eligible to receive both doses of the vaccine.

The measles vaccine is safe, free, widely available, and very effective.

Republicans’ partisan spending bill turns the federal government into a slush fund for Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

It’s unthinkable that any Senate Democrat would hand them a blank check by voting for cloture.

Group of Ontario school boards says lawsuits against social-media giants can proceed Schools for Social Media Change, the group of plaintiffs, says the court’s denial of Meta, Snapchat and TikTok’s motion for dismissal means the case can proceed to trial

Karoline Leavitt Gaslights The American Public During Her Press Briefing Don't let her.

The White House Press Secretary just wrapped up her press conference, and let’s be clear—the White House is gaslighting you as the country burns. Here is everything you need to know.

Americans: We’d like to afford basic necessities, keep vital programs, and not lose our retirement savings.

Trump: Best I can do is a car commercial for the richest man on Earth.

Thanks Donald, if it wasn’t for you, and your tariff war against Canada, I probably wouldn’t have tried this most excellent Ontario Pinot Noir.

Overheard: The Tesla Chainsaw Massacre.

Well at least we have cheap eggs—oh wait.

Opinion: Canada needs to address its cultural trade deficit with America In this moment of ‘Buy Canadian,’ we must also watch, read and listen Canadian, in our theatres, cinemas, libraries and living rooms

An excellent opinion piece from Gil Garratt. Looking forward to the made-in-Canada theatre buttons.

If fentanyl is entering the US, it’s the US border guards that are responsible for finding it and stopping it not Canada! Lol

The Words Federal Agencies Are Discouraged From Using Under Trump Federal agencies have issued guidance to employees on hundreds of terms to limit or avoid using. An analysis of government websites shows many of the same words being removed.

As the Trump administration introduces Newspeak,
I have launched a substack to document the Orwellian world we are now in.
I Give You My Word.
