Hello! I am a friendly, progressive, secular Canadian. 😀👋✌️

My focus is Canadian/US politics, but humour and animal related posts are a welcome balance.

I'm an avid reader, a fan of black & white movies, and a music lover. It's always a pleasure to meet like-minded folks!

Miami police shot and killed a woman experiencing a mental health crisis this weekend after her 12-year-old daughter called for help.

No mental health crisis should turn deadly by those called to help. Our hearts are with the family as they await answers.

Charging EVs as fast as petrol?
The future is closer than we think ⚡

One of the biggest barriers drivers still raise about EVs is charging time - with petrol refuelling seen as quicker and more convenient. That gap is about to shrink… fast.

Jamie Raskin said he reviewed an email sent from Epstein to co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell that was a forwarded conversation between Epstein’s lawyers and lawyers for Donald Trump.

The DOJ (illegally) redacted Trump's name in the public files.

They say liberals and leftists get triggered quite easily, and I agree. But it’s usually about social injustice. That was a fun halftime show about social justice. The other people get triggered too, when we try to include the people they don’t like. They’re anti-equity, which is anti-America.
