And yet, the US trade deficit has grown since he has started his trade wars. The man is a genius. NOT.

His being a pedophile and behind president at the same time is what's offensive. If he doesn't want to be called a pedophile president he can always resign.

Hanlon's Point Beach on Toronto Island is an official clothing optional beach. Beechgrove Beach in Scarborough has an unofficial nude beach. It has recently moved so check the location. Bare Oaks north of Toronto is a naturist resort.

Progress always starts on the left but people have been brainwashed into fearing change. The gap between the rich and poor has widened exponentially. That is no coincidence.

The #StawamusChief as viewed from the Stawamus River. #Squamish #BC #Canada. It has a rock face for climbing and three trails to the three peaks on the back side. It is a 6 km hike to the 3rd peak, slightly less for the other two. It is grueling with lots of challenges.
