We said goodbye to our wonderful Lucy, age 13, yesterday. It was an amazing, very moving experience thanks to the vet hospice team at Resting Paws. Missing her and feeling 💔😢. We’ll love you forever, beautiful girl 💗🐶💗🌈

President Trump’s tariffs will hurt, but Canada is strong.

And we have the opportunity, now, to build.

A reminder: in the past, when a singer's mic cut out during the U.S. National Anthem at a hockey game in Canada, the entire arena stepped in, singing every single word of the Star Spangled Banner together.

Tonight, thanks to Trump, Canada is booing during the National Anthem.

Literally did a spit take as the CBC political correspondent speculated about cutting the power during the Super Bowl "so that suddenly New York and Michigan can't watch the Chiefs and the refs take on the Eagles."

The feeling of betrayal in Canada is palpable.

We had people go to war & give their lives when the US was attacked. We brought US people into our homes when they couldn't return to theirs on 9/11. At great risk, we hid & rescued US Embassy staff from Iran.

Canadians are seething tonight.
