News junkie. Democracy must be protected at all costs. Fairness for all. Proud Canadian. I'd rather be driving a Titleist.

Do Americans not worry that Trump has been compromised by Nat Hart, who has no security clearance, may well be working for a foreign government & seems to completely control an old man? Like really, why aren't Americans up in arms about the possible national security threats of this "relationship"?

One big propaganda lie that MAGA spreads is that the US has protected NATO militarily. The US has spent huge sums on defense, it's true, but the vast majority was to buy stuff from US defense contractors or establish foreign bases to protect US power. The US has not defended anyone else since WW2.

Go ahead Trump, do it. Pull the plug on trade with the EU. Also, lace up your skates & take on Carney one-on-one at centre ice. You can't even skate from your own bench to centre ice without falling and not being able to get up. We dare you. Go for it! www.theguardian.com/world/2026/s...

I've been noticing a shift in messaging on X in the past few days. The MAGA posse are telling Canadians "It's just Trump, it's not us, once he's gone all will be chick & swell again." Don't believe it anymore than the frog should have believed the scorpion. It ain't just Trump, it's their system.

Easy solution. If Stellantis doesn't honour its commitment to Canada, Canada should ban their shit vehicles from being sold in Canada until they do. Enough of arrogant Americans reneging on deals they agreed to. Canadians will always remember the Gordie Howe Bridge. www.autonews.com/stellantis/a...

The key point: MAGA ratings sinking in districts deciding the house. We can override their radical redistricting IF we do the work. Please volunteer today with your local @indivisible.org chapter (and I’m agreeing with those who don’t call it “GOP”—nothing grand about that party anymore.)

In Canada Diesel is above $2.50 CDN per litre (about $6.75 per US gallon in US $) - thanks to Trumps unilateral Iran disaster. Inflation will explode since as Jimmy Hoffa said "If you got it, a truck brought it to you" & trucks run on diesel. Americans, don't wonder why the world now hates you.

Trump calls possible Canada-EU move a hostile act after escalating trade war
WASHINGTON — After further escalating his trade war Wednesday, U.S. President Donald Trump said if Canada becomes the first associate member of the European Union it could be a "hostile act."

Trump is ready to cancel Canada 'cause he feels that we charge too large a tariff on poison US milk sold to Canada above a threshold - that has never been achieved. But he is ready to give 40,000 2,000 lb bombs to Israel, free, which will cost almost $3 billion to the US taxpayers. Make sense?

As a Québecois, I sure as hell hope that Québec gets with the program and allows a new Energy East and drops all the interprovincial trade barriers. $15 billion of equalization payments are at risk and the rest of Canada has just about lost patience with the petulant and never satisfied Québec.

I occurs to me that one of the big differences between Canada and the USA is that Canada works to establish and develop alliances, old and new, while the USA works to break them.

Another day, another new opportunity for Canada. A secondary benefit is that this, in a way, allows Canada to act as somewhat of a diplomatic bridge between (regrettably) post-Brexit UK & Europe, which is a way to give them "un retour d'ascenseur". Go Canada! ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/canada-...

Canadians now have country of origin reflex and avoid US products. What is likely missed by US companies is that the aggression by the US against Canada has attracted global attention. Based on comments I've seen, many people around the world also intend to shun US products. Reputation matters.

I'm Canadian. We've booked 2 trips in the next 8 months that will cost about $40,000 US. The trips will be in Europe & Canada. In the past, we would likely have spent about half that in the US. But no more because of the attacks by MAGA on Canada. Thanks for opening our eyes to better destinations.

MAGA could have had an unprecedented fortress North America that would have been the most powerful in the history of the world. But of course the MAGA way is to exert their stupid dominance on everything within their reach, which will result in a divided North America, and a stronger EU and China.

Canuckgolfer @bgcanuck.bsky.social · 13/09/2026
The Canadian approach to the conflict with the US is clearly getting under the skin of MAGA, because the trolls are out in full force insulting #Canada & Canadians. If the approach wasn't working, they would be trolling Democrats given the upcoming mid-terms.

Canuckgolfer @bgcanuck.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
Lots of bitching from MAGA on Canada's tarrifs on US dairy. Bottom line: we don't want US diary because it is full of chemicals and growth hormones that Canadians don't want to ingest or worse, to let our kids ingest. The US population are just a gullible and clueless consumers of US pharma shit.

Why aren't the Democrats & the media reporting on how Howard Lutnick's sons are making millions on a secondary tariff refund market? Fraud and insider exploitation can only occur if good people look the other way.

I love to see the MAGA trolling of #Canada on X. It shows that Canada's strategy against the US' tariff wars and 51st state bullshit & disrespect is effective and getting under their thing, cowardly skin.

Impressive support posts for Canada - other than the usual MAGA trolls - on X. Anyone who seems the least bit rational is firmly supporting Canada versus Trump. We'd really like to see the obese, corrupt bastard lace up a pair of skates and take the gloves off with Carney at centre ice.

I know there are some #Canadians who engage in Québec bashing. But I think Québec's fight to ensure the survival of its culture while surrounded by a sea of 400 million anglophones may now resonate with many Canadians. Québec has a saying "Maitres chez-nous", which means "Masters in our own house".

Canuckgolfer @bgcanuck.bsky.social · 09/09/2026
My take on the #Canada US trade situation. The big ticket stuff that Canada sells to the US, the stuff that's shipped by pipeline, electric grid & 150 rail-car trains have been completely exempted by Trump. It's the manufactured products that he's attacking, but we can sell those to other countries.

I'm going on two big trips in the next 12 months. About $50K worth. Not a cent in the US. Pre Trump 2, I would have spent about 80% of that in the US. I also look at country of origin when I buy retail and now avoid anything US. I have no interest in supporting the US economy ever again.

Love this from X: "The whole world is waking up to the fact that the US population is only 4% of the world’s population and that if the 96% work together we don’t need the US. By the time the Yankers work this out it’ll be too late for them. America First = America Alone." MAGA is alone.

The saying on car license plates in the Québec province of Canada reads (in French): "Je me souviens", which in English is "I will remember". The statement goes to a battle the French lost to the English in 1759 - 267 years ago. Canada does not forget - ever. And we will never forget fucking MAGA.

Here's my request for Americans who gripe that you are "defending Canada for free" Stop "defending" Canada. We don't need your defence, because no one is coming to attack Canada, except maybe you. If someone attacks NA, they are coming after Americans, not Canada. Defend yourselves, we're fine.

My grandpa flew 20+ missions in a decrepit bomber, loaded with bombs from England to Germany in 1943. He was shot down on his last mission & spent 8 months as a Nazi Prisoner of War. He did not consider himself courageous. Democrats who won't accept bribes consider themselves courageous.

I said in 2 posts tonight that there are 330 million and /or 350 million guns in circulation in the US. Sadly, I'm not sure of the real number so forgive me a pre-senior moment of inconsistency. But for anyone who is keeping score, how can either # be considered anything other than totally insane?

Please explain 1 thing to me: the US is the strongest, richest, most powerful country in history. #1, no contest. But Trump & the GOP keep griping that other, smaller, less powerful countries have "ripped-off" the US for decades. How can that be? #1 in history yet always being ripped off. Huh?
