This is unacceptable. What is the Business Improvement Association for If not to fight this on behalf of local businesses? That's the whole point! What I saw this morning was an absolute mauling of our retail district. Our local shops look like victims of oppressors.

I just went uptown to buy a few things from a couple local stores. Circled the neighbourhood following detour signs and parking restrictions and after 15 minutes of not even getting out of my car, came back home, didn't buy a thing. Does City Hall hate Uptown businesses?

I want to highlight segments of #MarkCarney ‘s speech at the EU today. Apparently Carney wrote the speech. Which is not the case for most leaders. It can’t be described as anything but historic. These clips are not necessarily in order. This part was especially important & powerful. #cdnpoli

Prediction: Canada will not sign and may not even bother negotiating a new trade deal with the United States before 2029. There here won't be a negotiating partner to be had on the other side before then. There are people there, they just aren't negotiating partners. #pencil #notrust #cdnpoli

Clear, insightful post unlike most of the "our leader is better than your leader" take on the #tradewar, that isn't: sologi.co/3ToYc8x "These two strategies cannot coexist. That is the collision. Not tariffs. Not trade balances. Not China." #Cdnpoli #politics

Canada Isn't Turning to China. It's Doing Something Much More Dangerous.

The fight over Canada isn't about trade. It's about whether a sovereign country can diversify its way out of dependence — and what happens to American power if it does.

Lots of American cruise ships here this year but I'm not seeing belligerence so far in Saint John. Any of the tourists I've encountered are deeply embarrassed.

I'm tired of hearing it from people who will allow their friends and neighbours to watch Fox News or worse without mocking them relentlessly. Billionaire media is what's tearing their country apart and it's not leaving ours unmangled either.

So what is shit about that video? Which part of it was misinformation? The reason I shared it was because every point in it was valid, not because of who was saying it. Bill Clinton has said lots of things I haven't bothered to share before.

I don't know, I didn't buy a ticket. That's just what drip pricing is. I understand it in the context of airline tickets. Not sure what Harvest is doing that might or might not be similar.

If somebody had to pay a real financial penalty for the pollution that we all had to breathe in this morning, this would probably stop.

Jeff Roach @jeffroach.ca · 03/09/2026

Drip pricing is when the advertised price isn't the real one. Extra fees get tacked on at checkout, so you pay more than what was shown. It's misleading enough that it's banned for airfares in some places.

It really shouldn’t need saying, but the U.S. Secretary of Defence mocking Canada’s military while making veiled threats of invasion is very much not a joke, even if the U.S. Secretary of Defence is a joke.

Totally agree, but also it's something Americans care about so our prime minister should be able to use it in negotiations with the province's backing.

Canadians need strong, competent, constructive leadership from our opposition parties if we're going to have good government. Our governments would be better if we had reasonable alternative options to choose. Right now we don't in Canada or NB. We won't vote for ridiculous and small.
