I suggest that the response to the Forever Canadian petition deive - 456,000 signatures - indicates that democracy is waiting for us to reclaim it and defend it. The UCP are doing terrible damage at the moment, but they are not invincible.

A blessing box from the local food bank costs them $28- so you could spent $40k and feed 1429 families for a week or you could buy another bracelet….

Trump now too chicken to talk to the world-famous economist and Canadian Prime Minister, The Right Honorable Mark Carney.
They're not on the same level:
Carney was Governor of both the Bank of England and the Bank of Canada.
Trump fucks little girls, bankrupts companies and is a convicted felon.

Tired of tariffs? Here’s how Canadians can make a real impact — with our wallets.

Skip the U.S. vehicles.

Choose Canadian-built. 🇨🇦

The first digit in the VIN on your car tells you where it was made:

🇨🇦 2 = Canada ✅ ✅✅✅✅✅✅✅

3,J,K,W,Y,V,Z,S,L Not USA ✅

🇺🇸 1, 4, 5 = U.S. ❌

It will take a decade or two to fix it, and we'll have to go through a world of economic pain to get there.

Given the trade war predicament 🇨🇦 now finds itself in, it's worth looking back at the 1988 Canadian federal election fought largely on the free trade issue. John Turner tried to warn us, and his words today show just how prescient he was. Take a look and listen.

Perhaps John Turner was right after all. Remember the Turner-Mulroney free trade debate during the 1988 election. Here's a clip:

Trump has declared economic war on Canada and we will not capitulate but will move away from the US.

As the PM has said, this will not be without pain but it is absolutely necessary. The US is no longer a friendly nation.

Oh no, I clicked the share button by mistake. Oops 🙊

This is the ad the P€do in Chief of the United States woke up furious about.

Would be a shame if it went viral. 😏

Sure, and Ford and other premiers should leave the negotiations and management of foreign relations to Carney, Anand, and the federal government.

Norm H 🇨🇦 @normh.bsky.social · 9d

Yes, but this ad also shows what happens when an inept amateur like Ford (or other premiers) veers outside of their lane and steps on a grenade. Now PM Carney is going to have to deal with the shrapnel flying everywhere, and Canadians everywhere pay the price for Ford's miscalculation.

But it is also a waste of ON taxpayer $, because it will do nothing to change Trump's tariffs fetish. Better the money be spent on encouraging Canadians to buy cars made in Canadian assembly plants.
