Found a welcome surprise in the mailbox today: my mail-in ballot for #Election2025 arrived! Took a well-deserved break from studying for final exams to do my civic duty and sent it back to Elections Canada ASAP. Every vote counts! #cdnpoli #elxn45 #ivoted #TeamCanada #elbowsup #CanadaStrong

You know, I'm pretty sure I've seen this movie before... And guess the Trump administration has too, except they happen to think its an instruction manual and forgot to watch the entire thing. #Canada #elbowsup #tariffs #annexation #USA #LifeImitatesArt

Watching the political situation unfolding in the US is like watching a trainwreck in slow motion. The rest of the world wants to look away but in the end we're all going to feel the effects. International solidarity will be critical to dealing with the US over the next 4 years. #politics #cdnpoli

The skies over Northern Iceland this morning were spectacular! Managed to catch this view of the nacreous clouds from the University of Akureyri campus. #iceland

Some call it a joke, but this isn't just innocent trolling by Trump and co. The more they normalize the language of Manifest Destiny, the more they whip up fervor amongst MAGA to support actual annexation. Just swell, eh? #cdnpoli

Big news: #Iceland will resume its negotiations to fully join the #EU! I have a feeling one of the reasons fuelling this is to counter the possible effects of growing US isolationism. Hopefully Canada will also take steps to strengthen its EU ties as well as with other likeminded countries. #cdnpoli

For some folks 'being right' without actually making things right is victory enough. In their minds why care that the ship is going down underneath everyone's feet when they're already victorious...

Agreed. Perhaps we could offer him a history lesson, eh?
As a Canadian I believe our relationship with the US will likely never be the same, and that Canada must quickly strengthen its global ties, especially with Europe, because there's strength in numbers. Too bad Trump doesn't get that.

Says the person who brought up lies and disinformation about a country they know nothing about. Everything you said about Canada's public healthcare system and MAiD is 100% untrue.
By the way, here's a history lesson for you. Have a good weekend and stay classy!

It’s definitely been an interesting night of #politics here in Iceland! Samfylking (the Social Democratic Alliance) made big gains this election and will head the next coalition government in the Alþing. Icelanders have voted for a new direction for their country. #icelandelection
