He may have one in California but I’m only familiar with the one in Niagara

I sure hope these aren’t the drones with British parts 🤯

Yes they are.
I’ve lived on Georgian Bay and near Lake Ontario - it gets a bit wild way out there.

We’re just miles apart on this.

Hmm. Their own mandate letters. It’s kind of like: when I was in a staff position, my PA was how I met the org’s goals - when I was in an executive position, it was more about what I would do to build and support outcomes for the org. It treats senior officials as adults.

If FIFA allows the US to remain a partner, when they are threatening to deploy ICE at the Super Bowl, then they really aren’t worth supporting.

PM Carney just announced that the school lunch program will become permanent and roll out across the country. Automatic tax filing for low income households. Canada Strong Pass will be renewed... Some good news program announcements. #cdnpoli #CanadaStrong #LiberalCanadian

The Swiss do this.
I’m becoming a fan.
As technology outpaces me, I’m using more support lines.

No matter what happens, Canada CAN manage without the US. It won’t be easy and we’ll need to make compromises. But I’m heartened by new global trade negotiations and international relationships. I think we should build our own cars: the Canuck Model.

I don’t think so. But think the CPC has a chance with someone who immediately gets their security clearance, develops a rational climate change plan, is able to effectively debate and critique policy and process - and stops banging on about a Christian nation.

Well, from my view, he has taken several transformational steps - I sure don’t see a status quo in here anywhere. He’s shifting trade from primarily south, to global. He’s managing Trump with civility, to avoid a total rupture. Sometimes the ref doesn’t see the elbow, or butt end.

Old school conservative; quite a different cat than what the CPC has on their slate now. Had the CPC had a rational representative, they probably would have won the last election outright. But, they roll in the mud with Skippy 🤯

Maybe, the system will pre-populate the T4 (and the rest of the CPP/OAS deets. They already have it.

I think a bit more of this might help people remember. There were enough viable opportunities to shut this whole regime down.

I actually wondered if the Pope would get the Nobel Prize.

They didn’t just NOT give Trump the Nobel Peace Prize, they wrote a citation that reads like an anti-Trump rallying cry.

(He’s gonna extra-tariff Norway now, isn’t he?)

'When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognize courageous defenders of freedom who rise and resist,' the Norwegian Nobel Committee said as it announced Maria Corina Machado as the winner of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize
