Made in Canada. I’m in my 60s, hard of hearing, and a centre-left liberal, resisting right-wing populism and fascism. Je peux lire et écrire en français. Vive le Canada! Elbows up! 📍 Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Pierre Poilievre could care less about Canada. He and the Conservative Party are pure MAGA.

What a pile of bullshit! This Trump ass-licker thinks other countries have to bow down to the United States. Canada is a sovereign nation, and will remain that way. Rubio can go suck a lemon.

🖕 Marco Rubio says the Canadian Government were actively sabotaging the peace deal in Gaza by recognizing Palestine as a state.
There could have been a peace deal way sooner if Carney, Macron and Starmer did not involve themselves in the negotiations. #cdnpoli

Dear America,

If you are outraged by ICE agents handcuffing children (among other human rights violations), you should be out protesting. What Donald Trump and his henchmen are doing is not normal. Fight to save your democracy while you still can.

For the ninth straight month now, Canadian road trips to the United States continue to plunge. Boycott the U.S.A. Elbows up!

The White House can go pound sand. The Nobel Peace Prize is awarded to those possessing courage, empathy, and dignity, none of which Donald Trump possesses.

White House blasts Nobel Committee for not awarding Peace Prize to Trump

A spokesman says the Nobel Committee placed "politics over peace" in awarding the coveted award to Venezuela's opposition leader.

Don’t kid yourself into thinking that Doug Ford is some sort of Captain Canada. He’s a Trumper through and through.

When will the American people organize a general strike that will paralyze the country? Will Donald Trump declare martial law in response? There are so many questions.

The billionaire-controlled news media is complicit in the dismantling of democracy. The United States is more autocratic and authoritarian by the day. Canada is headed that way too unless we do something about it. Elbows up!

Donald Trump believes that disagreeing with him is a crime punishable by imprisonment. Let that sink in.

Trump wiped his ass with the American constitution. He can stop pretending that the United States is a democracy. It’s an autocracy.

He just said it. 100% unironically and unmistakably.

Donald Trump knows sweet fuck all about Canada and Canadians. Does he really think “Canada will love us again”? Trump and his henchmen have turned most Canadians against the United States. The sense of betrayal is real.

One can only surmise what Prime Minister Carney is thinking about the demented orange bloat.

Canadian Resistance 🇨🇦 @cdnresistance.bsky.social · 4d

Donald Trump is calling for the jailing of his political opponents. Is the United States the land of the free and the home of the brave? No. Is he making America great again? No.

Stephen Miller said "plenary authority," which is a fancy way of saying "absolute power of the kind Hitler enjoyed," and then goes silent, probably because he jizzed his pants.

Christopher Webb @cwebbonline.com · 4d

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

Food for thought: If Pierre Poilievre won the election instead of Mark Carney, we would be on the road to American statehood—with Poilievre as the governor.

Chris Barber and Tamara Lich were sentenced to twelve months of house arrest followed by six months of curfew. Is this a slap on the wrist or what?
