Canadian patriotism and anti-Trump sentiment at an all time high, Canada's premier sporting event, you know there's only one choice for the halftime act: an Alabaman country singer who played Kid Rock's MAGA festival, has lyrics praising Robert E Lee, and promoted an anti-trans Bud Light boycott

I remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. Now, two MORE unvaccinated people have died from measles. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

It's true that *at an individual level* you should be kind. Don't scream at your anti-vaxx neighbors or whatever. But when it comes to *public discourse* the most important message is that vaccines save lives and anti-vaxx beliefs kill children. If they feel attacked by that, it's not my problem.

The media relentlessly promotes the narrative that progressives are too mean to anti-vaxxers and we must bring them around with compassion. This isn't true and isn't helping. The more public sympathy you show them, the more empowered they are in their beliefs. www.statnews.com/2026/08/19/s...

True enough. Has Wheeler had an update on Danford lately? Personally, I find his analysis to be better than Pronman.

Pronman had McKenna at #4 in this year's draft rankings so I'm not sure how much stock I would put into his opinion on Danford.

When the Californians assure Canadians that we’re all friends and they are on our side, won’t we please buy their wine and come back to visit.
California winemakers cheered Mr. Trump’s tariff announcement, saying that they have suffered a US$357-million drop in exports to Canada since 2024. In a statement, Steve Gross, president of the Sacramento-based Wine Institute, blamed provincial actions for causing “significant harm on both sides of the border.”

An essential development over the past decade-plus is that the ignorant went from feeling chastened when their ignorance was revealed to banding together and deciding that, actually, they were right. They might disagree at times, but they agreed that ignorance itself was an indicator of trust.

Poilievre quote tweets JK Rowling saying « what she said » after JK writes: « Today's ruling by the IOC means a welcome return to fair sport for women and girls, but I'll never forget the scandal of Paris 2024, when people who consider themselves supremely virtuous and progressive publicly cheered on men punching women. »

Conservative MP for Powell River–North Island, Aaron Gunn, is, uh, well he’s being trolled a bit for his condemnation of land acknowledgements yesterday. Message from K’omoks, Klahoose, Homalco & Tla’amin Nations: “Chillax, bud.” #bcpoli
Aaron Gunn: If the federal government truly believes in the private property rights of Canadians, they should probably stop opening every public meeting by proclaiming the gathering on the “unceded territory” of this or that First Nation.
Doing so reinforces the radical and dangerous legal concept that most Canadians live on “stolen land”. This is Canada. One country. For all Canadians.𝗠𝗣 𝗰𝗿𝗮𝘀𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗺𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗹𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀

March 11, 2026
Chiefs from four First Nations communities are urging the public to please approach Aaron Gunn with no caution whatsoever. He is completely harmless, though momentarily unsettled by the alarming possibility that someone might acknowledge the land before a meeting.
Yesterday on social media, the MP appeared to crash out and demand to speak to the manager of land acknowledgements, a position that observers confirm does not exist.
Chiefs whose territories make up the riding had two words for the MP - Chillax, Bud. 
Land acknowledgements have never seized private property, cancelled a mortgage, repossessed a pickup truck, or altered a single title deed anywhere in Canada.
They are simply people recognizing the history of the place where they are standing.
No one is going anywhere. Canada will survive the brief moment of honesty.
Until then, Chiefs across the region continue to reassure the public that land acknowledgements have not, to date, resulted in any land back.
