I’ve been thinking about Canada’s intention to become more economically independent from the United States, and to connect more with Europe.

We should do the same thing with our city-building.

Our city-building has always been too influenced by the U.S, especially with car dependency.

Thoughts?
Have you seen this? This recent study of mode share (the % share of transportation trips that are by car, transit, walking, biking etc) relative to city size and income levels in almost 800 cities in 61 countries. Interesting results. HT @davidzipper.bsky.social

“The United States has dropped from 30th to 48th in that same year, the biggest drop of any nation BY FAR. Its reputation-peers are now Kuwait, Algeria, Kazakhstan…”

That was last year. I can only imagine where the US reputation is now.

The fastest destruction of a nation’s reputation in history?
According to this ranking, Canada’s reputation has improved since 2024. We are now the 2nd most reputable country in the world.

This one hurts. The whimsical, hilarious, wildly talented, Catherine O'Hara. I always thought she had the sparkliest eyes - and genuinely made me feel safe watching her on my tv as a child. Thank you for your unique brilliance and the infectious joy you brought to this world 🤍

We thought inciting an insurrection was the worst thing a US President could do. We were wrong; Trump is having US citizens shot dead in the streets.

Nothing says pathetic fragile crook quite like orange felon accepting someone else’s Nobel Peace Prize and nothing says disgraceful fraud quite like Machado gifting her Nobel Peace Prize to a murderous tyrant like him for power. I hope the Nobel Committee strips it from her.

I think it’s basically time to retire the peace prize because it really is meaningless at this point. Another 100+ year-old tradition cheapened, wrecked, and discredited by the gauche garish gangster.

“Do you have any constipation medicine?”

My first received message of 2026. I don’t typically post on social media but this seems rather apt for how 2025 left me feeling.

I’m a proud Canadian, so some will say this is “none of my business” (they’re wrong), but the entire world badly needs a hell of a lot better USA than this.

I’d say that @stephencolbert.bsky.social is (with the lone exception of @maddow.msnbc.com) the most brilliant, humane person I’ve encountered in broadcasting. His mind works faster than anyone else’s at a level of sophistication that is unmatchable. Genuinely a generational talent.
