Remember they said they don’t need anything from us? Then why are US States crying for Canadians to come back, travel, why are sales down in many categories, why are companies going bankrupt, we may be small in population to the US, but Canadians put billions in the US economy and we can boycott!!

I'm sure if this is allowed to continue the 8.8 million dollars that PP billed taxpayers for in 2024 will balloon to a even more disgusting level.
We should be demanding a full Federal Investigation into where PP and his mail-order bride spent our tax money and who benefited from it.

Joly on attracting capital to Canada: "Investors are looking at different jurisdictions and thinking there may be too much risk because of instability. Right now Canada has this great potential of attracting capital from the world because of our stable democracy and our good environment to invest."

They do this repeatedly. I filed a complaint some time ago in which I had included screen shots showing their disrespect – of the person and of the office. Thinking I may file another complaint, again.

It’s remarkable to realize Diane Keaton created a signature look and sensibility back in the 1970s and for about half a century continued to be a creative inspiration for how to be yourself in a world that tries so hard to put you in a box. Well done, Diane Keaton. RIP.

I have been thinking about this article all week. May we all find someone to love us as much as BC loves giving tax breaks to homeowners. #bcpoli

Great to chat to Dan Fumano @vancouversun.bsky.social about BC's property tax deferment program.

My take: "the B.C. model, where significant interest rate subsidies are accessed by those with above-average home values, does not seem to be an effective use of government funds.”

Just read about the Cons demanding yet another item on the Project 2025 list: removing birthright citizenship in Canada. What's next? Gerrymandering? Removing voting rights? They already want private healthcare. www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/politics/con...

Conservatives want to end birthright citizenship for children of temporary residents

OTTAWA - The Conservatives are calling for a new limit on birthright citizenship, a measure they say would mirror the rules in peer countries and curb the risk of abuse

From OpenAI’s new data centres 🇨🇦 to calls for stronger AI regulation, CBC is connecting the dots on tech, law, and sovereignty.

"A future president, even dumber than you, will allow Qatar, the country that harbored Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the architect of the plane attacks in NY, PA, and DC today, and whose royal family will help him escape capture by the US, to build a military base on US soil to train Qataris to fly jets."
