@cbcradiocanada.bsky.social and Canadian medias are completely ignorant about the growing threat of fascism and far-right extremism. It’s not a difference of culture or opinions. It’s a group of people that want to destroy democracy and take away our rights

People are NOT well informed by 🇨🇦 medias
The Conservatives have launched their Charlie Kirk imitation tour.
In a fluff piece, CBC casually mentions that it it supported by youth from a group demanding the forcible deportation of millions from Canada.
CBC presents it as "counter culture."
No.
That's hate.

“Although I spent many of my formative years living in the White House, I always knew it wasn’t my house. It was my home, absolutely, but not my house. The White House belongs to the American people, and that’s why we call it the People’s House.” www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

President Trump has authority over the White House and the right to turn the East Wing into a ballroom. But authority is not the same as stewardship.

Don’t laugh at this. Don’t dismiss it. They’re serious. Prepare for it. And get ready to fight against it.

Trump is furious because Canada went over his head and just made their case with Americans directly.

It’s what everyone should do.
Donald Trump just threw a late-night tantrum over an advertisement created by the Canadian province of Ontario, which featured Ronald Reagan’s REAL words expressing his dislike of tariffs. Trump says that, as a result, all trade negotiations with Canada are “HEREBY TERMINATED.”
If Joffrey Baratheon grew up to be an American president, this is pretty much what it would look like.

A year ago, this would have been a big deal here. Now?
We've got new trade partners
New lumber buyers
New shipping routes
New energy deals
New USA nurses
New drug research grants
New deals with indigenous governments
New pride, New confidence.

Sorry, America.
We're just not that into you any more.

Doug Ford on 10/14/25: Let's take Ronald Reagan's words and let's blast it to the American people. And our first launch is going to be on every major network...we're going to launch a $75 million ad, and we're going to repeat that message to every Republican district right across the entire country.

For a 'real estate tycoon' he's pretty incompetent.
Then again, almost every business that he's started has become bankrupt, unless it's propped up by Russian investment or U.S. government intervention.

Following a vehicle is not impeding. These proud boy shits don't know the law and they think they can threaten whatever they want and no one can do anything. Newsflash you fascist fucks: you're not immune to prosecution for violating our rights. Justice is coming, you'd better lawyer up.
Federal Goons pull over woman, threaten to arrest her for allegedly trying to "impede" by following them.

Take care of what? ICE brings violence, criminality, and war to a peaceful city of Americans trying to live our lives. We are Americans, not a military target.

He has never made an honest deal in his life, so this is no great loss.
He also is completely ignorant of history or economics - something that Reagan actually understood.

I'm pretty sure that any deal between Switzerland and the U.S. will depend on how much the Swiss put in a bank account for El President.
I'm sure that Putin's Pal in the White House will find a way to help you - possibly by reflagging Russian vessels as American.
