Like many 🇨🇦’s we skipped our FLA trip this year. So we went to 🇲🇽 & I met great 🇺🇸’s who were kind BUT embarrassed by what’s happening. Many apologized

I told them- I don’t want it.

Don’t be sorry, be active. ORGANIZE. Talk to neighbours. be the change

Leave the sorry to us. We’re famous for it

In an era of great power rivalry, Canada is choosing to be principled and pragmatic. To name reality, to act together, and to build what we claim to believe in.

Star Wars taught me more of a moral code than any Bible verse. The power of Hope, the importance of Friendship and Loyalty, embracing Diversity and Acceptance, the perils of Hubris and Arrogance—and the balance between Light and Dark…

Stay on target, my friends… and May the 4th be with you. Always.

This isn't even about Trump, exactly. It's about the fact that the most fascist front-line goons on a power-trip now know they are operating with total impunity.

Don't travel to the United States for any reason.

Anyway, let people like Danielle Smith and Preston Manning expose themselves for what they are: selfish, petty pro-MAGA ideologues, more interested in pursuing a narrow vision that sees Alberta as little more than the oil industry. Most Albertans are better than that.

No, you’re tearing up. This eight year old Molson Canadian ad is, deservedly, making the rounds.

Okaaayyyy, so it is working.

Forward bookings from Canada to the US are down over 70% across the board this summer. People are clearly rethinking where (and how) they spend.

This is a BIG shift.

Me & my buds have taken a motorcycle trip - usually 10 to 14 days through the US for 15+ years. This year, we were going to Memphis / through the Ozarks into Branson and back home. Just cancelled all of our hotels and tours - instead spending our $ in 🇨🇦 #sorrynotsorry

Canada should just start emulating US bourbon at scale and call it that.

US law protects the name “bourbon,” as an America-made booze; and so does our Spirit Drinks Trade Act.

Who cares? Stop enforcing the law. Repeal it. Let the Golden Era of Great Canadian Bourbon begin!
