Jason Stanley is one of three Yale profs who left Trumpland to teach at U of T. In his first op-ed for @thestar.com, he says Canadians need to wake up and smell the fascism: www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...
I left Trump’s America last year to teach in Canada. I didn’t expect this from Canadians
During my short time here, I have encountered a shocking level of naïveté about what is happening in the United States.

“ICE are people with weeks of training given serious weapons and set loose on streets of the United States. They’re Trump’s private army. Average people need to stand up and say NO! Do not travel to America. Do not buy American. This is serious now!” 🇨🇦

Any administration that instantly clears one of its officers of a suspected capital crime is just begging for other trigger-happy poorly trained ICE officers to do the same.
The White House isn't protecting its officers. It's encouraging them to ignore the law. And that puts more Americans at risk.

Canada is becoming far more attractive in commodity goods for the rest of the world, as it diversifies its trade away from the U.S., says one analyst.

That's two polls in a row in the last 48 hours showing how much of a pipe dream Albertan independence is
Albertan Independence? Meet cold, harsh reality
New polling reinforces older polls showing little support for leaving Canada, though UCP voters are much more willing to support the idea.

In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.
