He is cut from Republican cloth. He went to high schools and told students that breakfast programs are government overreach. He will rip our social safety net apart and sell the parts to Trump.
Jamil Jivani has no authority to go to Washington & told to stay at home but he is going.

Jamil Jivani has been visiting Canadian Universities to indoctrinate male students. He feels he is the Canadian version of Charlie Kirk

Jamil Jivani is DANGEROUS for Canada

When anyone from SCTV dies it’s like 30 people have died. Every character they created was as alive as anyone else you’ve ever met.

A Canadian icon. We will never see another quite like her. RIP Ms. O'Hara.
Catherine O'Hara is taken, while Donald J. Trump still wheezes amongst us. The Lord's aim is notoriously sloppy.

PM Carney calls on Canadians to buy Canadian

I am glad we took our kids to Philly in 2024 and saw this before it was dismantled.

Removing signage doesn't erase history. Memories are long and stories matter. Ignoring it doesn't make it untrue.
One day, if we are lucky, the erasure of American history will itself be remembered as a shameful chapter in American history

The program isn't meant for hunters. No one is taking rifles away. Ford is purposely being obtuse to hide his many other nefarious plans.

I still weep that a minority of Ontario handed him a second term. We need to do better.
#Ontario Premier Doug Ford is criticizing a federal government program that offers compensation to citizens who submit unregistered or banned firearms. #GunBuyBack #Canada

-26 automatically puts everyone into the "want to die" column.
people who live through Canadian winters are either "the cold makes me feel alive" people or "the cold makes me want to die" people and that first category is absolutely not to be trusted imo

I couldn't have said it better. Masked men being defended for killing a woman. Tale as old as time.
If the US government were bending over backwards to defend masked ICE agents murdering a woman in cold blood any harder they'd qualify for the fucking Olympics.

The 32 books of 2025.

It was my first year using @thestorygraph.com and it is a great alternative to Goodreads.

How many of these distillers voted for Trump? Methinks this is their Find Out moment.

Obviously we are favouring local producers. Why do Americans think they can dominate our market? (I am also looking at you, American dairy)

Those who are spearheading this separation movement are not paying attention to what's happening to Venezuela.

Who is going to defend a separate Alberta when the USA comes marching in for their oil?

Toronto could use some of this logic.
I refuse to shut up about this: NYC started charging $9 to bring a car into our most transit-rich zone, the haters & trolls predicted doom, but traffic evaporated instantly and here’s Times Square tonite (even after the holiday tourists have left). For a better future, build transit & price driving!

Less than a week to go until Christmas and I’m growing concerned we’re not going to get a folksy Christmas video from Doug Ford and I don’t know what the point of having the province’s most expensive government ever is if we don’t get a folksy Christmas video from our Premier.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

Currently reading this book Thank you #booksky for solid recommendations of books I was unsure about, and introductions to books I had never heard of.
Book 5 of 2025 and it was an absolute winner. David Mitchell's #unruly . A funny but accurate account of the England's kings and queens from as far back as can be traced until the death of Elizabeth in 1603. I loved every slightly sweary page of it.

Our Amazon Prime subscription expires next week.

Shop local. Support local.
Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

It's not the threat he thinks it is.

Also, Canadian teams don't visit the White House. The Raptors didn't, why would the Blue Jays?

His ballroom sucks.

Disorganization and chaos is the point.
Feeling for parents who are going through the school re-org process today, a process made crueller by the TDSB Supervisor, without Trustee support. Tough when your child is switched to another class in a process that seems random but is due to underfunding. #onted #topoli #onpoli

I have never witnessed a school year start off with this amount of chaos. So many classrooms without teachers and zero recourse for parents.

Never forget: destroying public education is the point.

STEWART: “Comedy doesn’t change the world, but it’s a bellwether— we’re the banana peel in the coal mine… authoritarians are the threat to comedy, music, art, thought… progress.”

Nailed it.

Why aren't Americans protesting and burning cars in the streets? He is destroying your country and taking everyone with him.
