Charlie Angus: In just a year and a half, Canadian purchases of vehicles made on the American side of the border dropped 30%. If you take the American export auto economy, Canada’s number one. If you take the next 10 countries and put them together, it’s still less than Canada at number one.

85-90% of handguns used in criminal activity in Toronto can be traced back to the USA. At what point do WE call a NATIONAL SECURITY EMERGENCY and impose some pain on the Americans? If they can do it over 41 lbs of fentanyl, surely we can do it over thousands of illegal guns.

Hi Nobel Prize! Hope you are doing well. Does Canada need to proactively close our border just in case, or are we good? Wink twice if we need to close.

Why on earth have we been meddling with clock times? A Canadian invented standard time and time zones so the local peak height of the sun would happen at 12 noon. This idiocy is still going on today. If you don't like school hours ending near dusk, then change school hours, not clocks!

I remember this so well. It travelled coast to coast in Canada - no incidents of violence. It travelled in Germany. No incidents of violence. It was murdered in the US soon after it started. That says so much.

Americans aren't worried about this at all though. Hegseth is a preacher now: invoking God's mission for the military; giving sermons to an audience forced to be there. We can all see the US in a rapid decline. I'm sure the Chinese are watching this debacle.

Cyclists should obey traffic rules for sure. But change one rule "Cyclists are generally required to stop at stop signs, but in some states, "stop-as-yield" laws allow them to treat stop signs as yield signs when it is safe." No need to lose momentum when nothing is coming. Yield the Right of Way.

Bill Gates warned AI could lead to 1 billion deaths, Trump dismissed it. Both men are found in the Epstein files btw.
The Main Photograph: The post features an image of an official gathering in the East Room of the White House. Donald Trump is seated at the center of a long wooden conference table, surrounded by a large group of standing tech executives and officials.In the background of the image, Bill Gates (co-founder of Microsoft) appears to be looking directly at President Donald Trump with a serious, intense expression.

Standing outside the gates of the Qu'Appelle Indian residential school.This a haunted dark place. A 5-year-old taken through these gates had a lower chance of survival than a Canadian soldier fighting in WW2. The red dress and the orange shirt hang on the gates. We remember #orangeshirtday

Drivers can see every achromatic colour (neutral colour) of vehicle but put that on a pedestrian or a person on a bike and we then become invisible? Maybe all cars should be cast in red, yellow & orange from now on. If you drive & can’t prioritize the safety of vulnerable road users, STOP DRIVING!

Reading has become an endangered species. Which is half the problem with American political life. Maybe more than half. If you can't read, you can't think. Then you can fall for anything. The idea, for instance, that the truth is fake news.

This hasn’t made it to Bluesky yet but Mark Carney made a statement condemning the white supremacists who paraded around Kamloops on Sunday and targeted the Tk̓emlúps te Secwépemc community with offensive messages
The cowardly act that took place at Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc yesterday is abhorrent. It has no place in this country. My thoughts are with everyone who is shaken and hurt by this disgusting display of hate.

This week, we will mark the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. It is a stark reminder of our shared responsibility to confront the devastating legacy of the residential school system and the consequences still felt today. Courageous Survivors shared the truth so that all Canadians could take up the work of reconciliation.
