The U.S. government invited reports against Canadian doctors who provide gender-affirming care — in Canada.
This was a direct threat to our sovereignty. We should pay attention to it.

When Mike Myers wore his "Canada Is Not For Sale" t-shirt on SNL, he mouthed a secret code: "elbows up."
It's a reference to the great Gordie "Mr. Elbows" Howe who punished those that messed with his team.
You heard him Canada: elbows up.
If anyone asks why, tell them that Mike Myers sent you.

Hell, if there were such a place, would actually freeze over before Canada became a U.S. state, because it would be full of scrappy Canadians who went down swinging.

And who determines what the executive’s legitimate power is, JD? The executive?! Come on.
Let me put it in terms you’d get. It’s like football. The judges are the refs, and they say whether you’re in or out of bounds. And Musk is waaaaaay out of bounds with these takeovers of our systems.

no matter who someone is or what they have done I believe that people can and do change - both for the better and for worse and it's important to support people to become their best selves

When the Patriot Act was passed, libraries got requests for patrons’ borrowing history. We were prohibited from disclosing those requests.
We deleted and shredded those records and stopped tracking reading history for that reason.
