I would'a made the NHL too if my cousin Dave didn't give me a concussion playing road hockey. Seriously though - BC progressive, moving left while the rest of the world seems to be moving right. Poilievre is a weasel. (He/Him) 🇨🇦

Why would store owners rebuild out of plywood if "there are fires all over the place"?

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

My post from April 2, 2025: "So now that Trump has put tariffs on every country, my business plan to smuggle T-shirts made in Bangladesh into the US by speedboat, like a Prohibition-era rum runner, is about to take off."

The troupe has been running a long time; they just overhaul the cast every decade or so. Here they are with James O'Keefe in 2010, pretending to be a pimp.

I'd like to see a requirement that candidates for mayor have first completed a full term serving as a councillor. It would make for a smaller pool of candidates, but at least they would know how council works and have a track record of demonstrated performance.

Pierre Poilievre, Danielle Smith and all the other Maple MAGAs are 100% to blame for Canada inevitably losing its measles elimination status.

Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

Just openly cheering the destruction of any representation of gay people in public space. They think their power is totally unrestricted, and the entire country will support them rolling back society to the 1950s, or maybe the 1850s

"It's a tough situation because we want to make our cars here," Trump said. "At the same time, we want Canada to do well making cars. So we're working on formulas, and I think we'll get there."

Trump should create some type of "pact" to cover car manufacturing.

Trump posts that Sen. Blumenthal “should be allowed to speak no longer”

Sanctimonious Richard “Da Nang Dick” Blumenthal, perhaps the biggest “joke” in the United States Senate, is at it again! “Dick” lied until the midpoint of his political career, convincing everyone, in particular the Fake News Media, that he was a great “War Hero” who lived on the precipice of death in the jungles of Vietnam. He would talk about his life in the military in almost every speech, in particular the death defying dangers he faced in his many years “fight for freedom” while in Vietnam. He stated that “the battles were violent and long, but there was no going back” - And then it happened, Blumenthal was found out to be a FRAUD. The soldiers in his so-called “platoon” came forward and said that they had no idea who this guy was. He was revealed, broke down and admitted, tears flowing from his eyes, that he LIED, a Whopper, one that lasted 20 year. This guy shouldn’t even be in the U.S. Senate. It should be investigated, and Justice should be sought. Right now there is a Congressman sitting in prison for lying about his past during a campaign. Well, those lies were nothing compared to those of Richard “Da Nang Dick” Blumenthal, perhaps the greatest phony in the history of the United States Senate. He should be allowed to speak no longer!
