I agree. Roughly same age. Hons BA English Western. Never heard of her. Is living out of the country for almost 20 years an excuse? Probably not.

BS. You can hear an American a mile away. We use our outside voice outside and our inside voice inside. I was in a restaurant 2 days ago. 15 tables. Everyone had to listen to the American talking in her outside voice. She was at a table of quiet Canadians. The whole restaurant was poisoned by her.

Noticing a piece of the new “American flag blue” liner that was partially detached from the Reflecting Pool, David Hearn said he reached in to see what it felt like. Moments later, U.S. Park Police officers arrested him on a misdemeanor charge of destruction of government property. wapo.st/4xVNzcS

The change from CBC was finessed under Stephen Harper, the guy who wrote a book on Harper. If there is to be blame on a government ( and it may not be appropriate to blame a government), be sure to blame the right gov’t.

So even she has a line. I never thought she would abandon the Thug. I thought she was one of them. Caroline always presented as someone with lacking values.

The only reason the Trumps decided to attend tonight’s dinner is because he needed an opportunity for another “assassination attempt”.

Vance flew to Budapest last week to campaign with Orbán. Trump promised Hungary his "full economic might." Orbán lost by 30 points. The MAGA endorsement. Working as designed.

PM Carney is a business man first, a politician second. He felt she had something to contribute to Canada, regardless of whether everything about her was perfect.

I’ve get to meet anyone in my social circle who isn’t rooting for Iran. We have had more than enough of bully Trump. I’m delighted that someone is finally standing up to him and making him squirm. Iran will end the war on their terms. They are in no hurray; they know Trump is.

Curious… They chose an unmitigated asshole as leader. He spent 20 years being an unmitigated asshole. Said leader then dialled up the level of asshole to 10 for a few years. He kept the assholery up throughout the campaign. And the CPC have concluded ‘maybe he needs to max out at level 8 asshole’

You have a typical, over inflated view of your country. I have never once considered 🇺🇸 the greatest country. So much racism. Low education levels ( check out your Pres), school shootings, lax gun laws, no free healthcare, dental or pharma. Limited knowledge of rest of 🌎. MAGA.

I would give him some slack. Look at what he had done and dealt with in just a week. If it were me, I wouldn’t even know what day it was.I know PMs are busy and expected to be superhuman, but I would not hold this slip up against anyone who had the kind of week he had.

“knock it off” says the student teacher when confronted with a behaviour problem. But to hear those words from someone who wants to be PM of a G7 country to the President of the USA — Poilievre could not be more lame if he tried.😂😂😂

They actually asked him to stay for another term. He said he would stay for 2 more years, for personal reasons. The personal reason was to get his children back in Canadian schools and the family back in Canada.

You are comparing nude model Melania to Oxford educated economist Diana Carney? Please.

babsbutterfly.bsky.social @babsbutterfly.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
Seriously, are you comparing Carney to Trump and the economist Diana Carney to Melania? And Trump’s daughters to Carney’s? There is no way Carney would marginalize women. A Cabinet Minister will have responsibility for women.

Relax. Early days. Cabinet to get through until after election. Changes will come later. She has a big political future and will be recognized, just not now..

Did’ya notice how, at his press conference today, Prime Minister Carney treated the media with respect and occasional flashes of good humour? No chomping on apples, no answering questions with questions, no attempts to humiliate the questioner, no impugning of the media organisation asking? 🍁🍁🍁

I’m a recent doctor transplant from the U.S. to Canada. The decline of medical ethics in the U.S. has devastated young American physicians who still believe medicine should help people. Now’s an ideal time to recruit them to Canada. Let’s go! 🇨🇦 @canadahealthwatch.bsky.social
