Two day ago I lost my cell phone and was pretty convinced it was stolen during a visit to the gym. But no, my partner found it today. In the freezer. Getting old is most entertaining. #aging
Canadians burned down the White House in 1814 and we'd be happy to burn Trump's legacy down when he finally departs.
Human's don't deserve this planet.
Breaking news: Trump opens Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil drilling.
Everyone will be held to account.*.

I'll continue to roll through stop signs on my bike because it's safer for me. When I drive I stop because it's safer for you.
Given our politicians lack of balls when it comes to gambling regulation this is predictable.

PHOTOS: White House starts East Wing demolition to build Trump's ballroom
The Republican president has said he's adding a 90,000-square-foot ballroom because the East Room, the largest room in the White House with an approximately 200-person capacity, is too small.

By that I think you mean to say the Jays were running for him (see management quotes) but he was running away and you feel it was a foregone conclusion?
True, but there's many Dodger fans who fully understand Trump and his sycophants are toxic and dangerous.
Lots of Americans will be rooting for the Jays given our insane political leadership. Perhaps karma will be kind to Canada.
The Shohei Ohtani boos from Toronto fans will rival that since he turned them down and chose the Dodgers.
Quite right, that's an impressive speech. Thanks for sharing and here's hoping it lifted some spirits and sparked some fight.
Once you start to notice what car culture is doing to city residents you can't help but support safe streets.
Why do right turns on red make no sense? This fellow does a fine job explaining. @brenttoderian.bsky.social #CBC
Perhaps much need housing?
We don't need to open the constitution to turn our LG's into figureheads who live in their own homes and do regular jobs. Nor do we need to welcome unwelcome guests we call princes and princesses. It's kinda 17th century nonsense.
The Royals are generally horrible people on a snob scale that's beyond any known scale. Andrew rapes young girls, Charles is a bumbling idiot who did not stop the abuse of Diana and the list goes on. It's gross pomp and completely unnecessary. Tax dollars wasted IMO.
It's worth noting too that Timothy Snyder now lives in Canada in large part because of Trump and MAGA.
Congratulations from Canada. We've been worrying and fretting and angry and sad and sometimes confused about how and why so many support your hateful and corrupt administration.
Indeed. Prince Andrew should be the nail in the Royal coffin but too many Brits rely on the pomp and tourism dollars. Why Canadians put up with the pomp and lavish spending is just short of criminal.
