It's been confirmed that ICE is using Planatir to map and identify immigrant neighborhoods.
They are systematically removing the people most likely to vote against Trump in the next election.
Historians may look back and declare the 2024 elections the last free vote held in the United States.

These were the first four Canadians who died in Afghanistan, killed by a bomb dropped by a U.S. F-16. The pilot mistook them forTaliban.
If they were not on the front lines this never would have happened.

I think it's important to understand that the US has a history of trying to run the entire Western Hemisphere, it just seems that Agent Orange isn't all that shy about admitting to it.

FYI... The only party leader in Canada praising Trump's actions is Pierre Poilievre. Still not distancing himself from Agent Orange. Why am I not surprised.

If all of this seems oddly familiar, it's because life is imitating art. A president starts a fake war to distract from his being accused of molesting a young girl. It's the plot of the 1997 film "Wag the Dog."

Trump claims he's going to reduce drug prices by up to 1400%. So instead of paying roughly$98 for their insulin, diabetics will be paid $1278 per dose to take it.
Sounds legit.

Canada does need to have some kind of trade deal with the U.S., but it's not hard to figure out where Agent Orange learned his negotiation ethics.

For years people have complained that our government is broken and the way we've been doing things doesn't work. Now we have a non-politician in the PMO doing things differently and everyone's complaining he isn't doing what we've always done! Why am I not surprised?

The Prime Minister is dealing with an unstable personality who is completely unpredictable in his reactions to public comments, so he's not making any public comments till he has a deal. I don't know if it will work any more than anyone else, but I'm willing to wait and hope.
