Only some sporting events. Guarantee you should never thinks about basketball or soccer.

For example, she definitely wouldn't be setting a deadline of the Canadian Premier League's North Star Cup.

Those sports are too "urban" for her.

How are you going to get the House back?

Republicans only needed 34% of voters to win. Since then, they further rigged voting in their favor by redistricting, removing voters from rolls, etc. Not to mention that Trump could declare marshall law and cancel elections.

Fascism isn't ended by voting.

Elbows Up isn't "nonsense," Peter. It's the feeling of the majority of Canadians towards Trump's USA.

Oh God...

The US isn't a party to the International Criminal Court. Like Russia, the US withdrew its signature from the Rome Statute.

Side note: This isn't the first time Americans have done terrible things.

Sure, but the miniscule amount of fentanyl smuggled into the US from Canada has nothing to do with deaths in Canada. And likely results in very few deaths in the US, due to the small amount of fentanyl smuggled.

If we want to address deaths, we need drug and mental health treatment funding.

Fascist regimes have an average duration of 30+ years. Any ramifications for these people will only happen after the regime falls.

Do you think Bondi will care at that point?

If the Conservative political strategy is going to continue to be "copy everything Trump says," they're going to find it very difficult to win an election ever again.

And with Liberals now a fiscal Conservative party, there really isn't a reason for the Conservative party to exist.

And the Brasilian firm 3G Capital actually bought the parent company. So, it's partly American, mostly Brasilian, and hardly Canadian at all.

Tim Hortons raises coffee prices, calls hike β€˜more than reasonable’ Canada’s iconic coffee chain is charging more for the drink, reflecting a wider trend of jittery coffee prices.

I wish news media would use their brains.

Canadians don't pay US tariffs. US consumers do.

US tariffs on Brasil are also not relevant.

And Carney dropped retaliatory tariffs.

So, no, tariffs are not the reason Tim Hortons is raising their prices.

"Together, more than 42 per cent of those who were terminated believe they were discriminated against."

This is really shitty by Canada's federal government.

Let's check in on the Fascist States of America...

39% of Americans agree with Trump sending military into US cities.

That is a larger % of Americans than the % who voted for Trump. Americans apparently really love fascism.

It is plausible in the not-too-distant future that Canadians will need to open our homes to American refugees.

It's incredibly difficult for refugees to flee their country, so we will need to be ready to assist.

Cross border traffic down for 8th straight month
YouTube video by CTV News Cross border traffic down for 8th straight month

Americans sure are oblivious.

Border crossings from Canada to the US were down 40% in September.

And yet, US residents thought there were more Canadians visiting?

And a tourism consultant wonders if this is just a blip?

JFC.

Considering that the governments of most developed nations are anti-fascist...

Yes.

Antifa does have those things. And we're hoping we don't have to use them to defend ourselves if/when the Fascist States of America decides to expand their fascism beyond their own borders.

When they run out of "undesirables" in the US, they will invade other countries, like Canada, Panama, and Palestine, where they will then impose their hate abroad. Fascism always needs an enemy.

Canada can take a lead by revising the Canada Food Guide accordingly and ensuring the National School Food Program follows a Planet-first Diet.

While the Food Guide is largely aligned already, revising guidance to only consume red meat once per week is important.

*The war of 1812 lasted several years and this particular act happened in 1814. While Canada was not yet an independent nation, the people were Canadian. These were Canadian soldiers who fought under the banner of the British empire.
