Donald Trump hugging a very un-patriotic flag

Lets call this what it is, because it's not patriotism. Democracies fail when good people do nothing. So let's use or collective voice. Talk to friends. Share content online like this post that calls this movement out. The other side is emboldened when we all stay quiet, so lets not be quiet.

Dear Senator Joseph Martinโ€ฆ before setting your sights on Canada ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ, perhaps you should focus first on finding an actual barber ๐Ÿ’ˆ not named โ€˜Momโ€™โ€ฆ Love โค๏ธ from Canada ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ ๐Ÿ on

@guardtheleaf.bsky.social please check out the West Jet ad they are running on Facebook - the message is urging Canadians to book flights to the USA. They are getting destroyed in the comments(and ratioโ€™d)

I was able to get eye level with this big female eagle out in Squamish, over near Fergie's Cafe as you head out towards paradise Valley. Such amazing animals. The thrill of seeing one up close never gets old. โค

Beautiful and incredibly noisy late March morning with several hundred sea lions over on Vancouver Island. I'd spent a few days looking for them without luck, but it was the noise that ultimately gave them away. It was deafening!

Ian Cunliffe Ok, just so Iโ€™ve got this straight... The ๐ŸŠ Autocrat is telling us that if Canada ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ joins the USA ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ we too could have: An actual chainsaw wielding maladjusted man-child running around the...

Ian Cunliffe Dear America, do you recall the little Canadian town of Gander? ๐ŸProbably not... Itโ€™s a small Newfoundland town with a mill and a population of 11,000. It may not be much, but what that town lacks...

Hi all. My name is Ian. I'm an artist, wildlife photographer and storyteller. I also like standing up for democracy and being an all around decent human being. I'm starting to move away from Facebook because I have concerns about the platform and its ethics. Looking forward to connecting with you. ๐Ÿ˜Š
