Armed with a Ph.D. in History from Queens University at Kingston I had the good fortune of a varied career in public, non-for-profit and co-operative sectors. In retirement my insatiable curiosity and drive to learn new things hasn’t diminished.

FAFO

No f***s left to give these people.
Trump and Musk and their noxious ilk didn’t rise up suddenly out of nowhere. There was a blueprint written in 1971 that set the stage for America’s descent into fascist oligarchy.

This is well worth a listen. #oligachy #maga #fascism
Good to see the Globe & Mail finally catching up (even though they have poor taste in combat aircraft) 😉

Well, everyone is about to find out whether the judicial branch is still a guardrail.

Brace. Brace. Brace.

You have a site called “Evolving Hockey” and yet feel compelled to post drivel like this?

Ya, good luck with that. 🙄
No sympathy for this poster child for FAFO.

None. Zero.

Is it Crosby’s Golden Goal at the 2010 Olympics.

No, it’s not.

But does this feel sooooo damn good right now?

Oh yeah!!

BREAKING:

Canada defeats the USA to take home the #4Nations  Championship 🇨🇦🇺🇸

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau tweeted: “You can’t take our country — and you can’t take our game.”
And it’s only been six weeks!
This man epitomizes what being an awful, cruel human being means. #swaticars #maga #magamadness #resist
Anytime I read about points of effective resistance I am heartened - at least for the moment. And that’s so important in these dire times.

Thanks @mcuban.bsky.social for your #resistance

“Flood the zone” ensures that are so many things happening it’s hard to keep up, let alone form coherent responses.

But as a historian this is too close to home; a response is easy: “Fuck this 1984 shit!”

Here’s a suggested first act for @mark-carney.bsky.social when he wins the Liberal Party leadership.

Cancel the F-35 contract and put in calls to Stockholm and Paris to begin discussions about buying either JAS 39 Gripens or Rafales.

That’ll get some attention!

As we’re saying here in Canada #elbowsup H/T to the inimitable Gordie Howe. #resistanceisnotfutile
