I spent 25+ years working to expand the rights of people with disabilities and access to health care. I started in the early days of Canada's Charter I am a dual citizen. A rare genetic cond diagnosed after university made returning to the US impossible.

Decided to break out my Canada hat today, no reason.

À une époque marquée par la rivalité entre les grandes puissances, le Canada choisit d'être pragmatique et fidèle à ses principes. Il choisit de nommer la réalité, d'agir en collaboration et de bâtir ce en quoi nous affirmons croire.

here’s my latest:

Trump’s repeated references to Canada becoming a 51st state should be worrying enough, but the strategy released by his administration makes it very clear they’re coming directly for Canadian Arctic sovereignty via the Northwest Passage. www.nationalobserver.com/2026/01/20/o...
Trump will use the Greenland argument to grab Canada's Northwest Passage
A 1988 agreement between Canada and the United States about the sea lane left its legal status largely undecided, allowing both countries to assert their respective positions. But now, thanks to US Pr...

"Today three top American Catholic cardinals issued a joint statement warning the Trump administration that its military action in Venezuela, threats against Greenland, and cuts to foreign aid risk bringing vast suffering to the world."

Just how Trump likes it.

Reaching critical mass is key. If a few of us raise hell, nothing will stir. But if enough of us...

Heard various elected officials say early on that they still trusted the FBI to conduct a legitimate investigation. Nope.
@perrystein.bsky.social update! New info on the FBI seeking search warrants for Renee Good's car.

"Law enforcement applied for a warrant to search Good’s car under a civil rights statute"

"as new facts emerged in the case," they applied for a warrant under an assault statute. It was rejected.

Love how the president of the United States, who historically couldn’t manipulate the stock market, is tanking our economy and whatever retirement funds millions of us have.

As always, thank you John Roberts and Mitch McConnell.

Yes. It is true that Kamala Harris was right about everything but only because she bothered to read Project 2025 unlike so many others who still don’t understand that they did, in fact, vote for this.

Rachel Maddow: The people, by and large, stand in opposition to Trump — his approval ratings have fallen through the floor & then down into the basement & then through the basement floor into the bedrock — He is just despised as a political leader in this country in almost unprecedented terms

Where is Congress? Email your GOP legislative cowards and give them hell for hiding. Make them more scared of us than of Trump.

I've posted about the "Technate of America" here before.

Yesterday 🍊💩🤡 posted this image from in the Oval Office. Look at the map on the left and then the one on the right from 1940. They are really planning this, and if they succeed, our government, country, constitution are over.

NEVER give in to a narcissistic bully. They can never be appeased and only savage the country and the world to make themselves feel better.

Tk you for posting this speech by PM of Belgium. We, in Canada, are still in 'stunned' mode - thinking this 'can't be true' mode -the 'where the hell are the elected Republicans who can put this to an end with ONE vote' - all are chicken and need to understand the PM of Belgium's statement. Slavery!

“Tariffs are a mistake, particularly between long-term allies...

In politics as in business, a deal is a deal.

And when friends shake hands, it must mean something."

Refering to the EU/US trade deal in July.

Stop saying Congress can stop this mad king. The REPUBLICANS have control of congress and they should be called out specifically.

Americans can be no different. If we agree to Trump's terms, then, we have essentially given up our dignity to become his slaves to his whims. We cannot back down now or ever. Our fight at home is even more critical given that what we do affects everyone else across the globe.

“We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done,” journalist Garrett Graff wrote: “A superpower is [dying by] suicide because the [Republican] Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King. This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.”
