The Liberals splitting the border bill in two & giving Canadians adequate time to consider & weigh in on the parts of the bill that appear to undermine the privacy of Canadian citizens, is the right thing to do. Unlike the CPC or Alberta UCP, the LPC actually listens to the concerns of constituents.

Liberals introduce second border bill as they look to pass some measures quickly

Love Americans again? Personally, I will never love, forgive or forget the 77M Americans who voted for Trump & caused this brutal bullsh*t. Nor will I love, forgive or forget the 89M American nonvoters who enabled it with their indifference. I guess that leaves about 176M Americans I can still love.

President Donald Trump said he's working on a trade deal with Prime Minister Mark Carney that he believes will be well-received by Canadians, telling reporters assembled for their bilateral meeting in the Oval Office that the people "will love us again."

NOPE, NOT A CHANCE IN HELL THAT'LL HAPPEN!

Eby said Tuesday that "it's not the Danielle Smith show, it's the Canadian team," adding "there's nothing more Canadian than fairness."

Unfortunately, Dani and her Maple MAGA supporters wouldn't know "fairness" or what it means to be a Canadian first & foremost if it bit them in the ass.

They gave the Nobel Prize in Medicine to three relatively unknown, "sock puppet" scientists instead of to RFK Jr who is much smarter than all of them & who has been working so hard to save American lives? What is wrong with the Nobel Committee? Well, at least Trump will bring home the Peace Prize. 😉

And Dani and her clueless crew are okay with that because they know that educating kids just makes for fewer UCP voters in the future.

SOMEONE WAKE ME UP FROM THIS NIGHTMARE! Who da thunk that I'd ever agree with ANYTHING the Cons spewed up? I'm less ashamed given the NDP, Greens, Bloc Québécois & civil liberties groups share the same concerns - BUT STILL! The bill seems to ask a lot of Canadians to placate an evil lying PoS Trump.
