Jean Chrétien, at 92 yrs old, a strong, smart, sharp former PM who would never take any of Tramp’s bullshit, not in a million yrs. He refused a photo op at Ground Zero in 2001 bc he didn’t want to disrespect the souls who were still entombed in the rubble, he was a diplomat like no other. Love him!

When Trump first started calling us the tariff & 51st state BS, we said "elbows up" and started boycotting American goods. As the trade war went on and we realized that a fair trade deal wasn't possible, we started to say "gloves off". Now it's time to go all in - let's go over the boards 🇨🇦!

The history of Canadian television is fascinating. They gave this show about a wandering german shepherd two runs across eight seasons. that's 175 episodes built on the concept of "what if a dog was smart but itinerant"

Good discussion, but I have frustrations with the coverage of data centre water use. The heat generated by the servers is removed by a dedicated AC system but needs to be rejected into the ambient environment. Most commonly, this is done with a cooling tower. youtu.be/-wv_YC05NKM?... /1

So far, Mark Carney has gotten two standing ovations and lost one cabinet minister as a result of his "grand bargain" with Alberta. The best, or worst, is almost certainly yet to come, @maxfawcett.bsky.social writes

Beth Burke is certainly only representing the American side of the CanAm Bus Council. Basically, according to her, Canada needs to give up all bargaining points ahead of negotiations and just hope the Americans are in a good mood. Forget about all the unfair sector tariffs & give up the boycotts.

85% of farmers (according to trump) voted for Trump in the 2024 election. Since trump took over in January, 173 farms went bankrupt. Suicide among farmers have exploded to the point that there’s a glut of farm equipment on the auction market. #cdnpoli

On P&P today, #KarinaRoman pushed back hard against Patty Hajdu but left statements by others unchallenged. It seems that as a past union rep of CBC, she took the back-to-work order personally but wasn't willing to extend that criticism to all interviewees. I found this annoying.

@pattyhajdu.bsky.social I am watching your interview on CBC P&P. I find your comment on unpaid work not being reported naive. I worked for a consulting company where project managers would run out of hours on a project and refuse to allow people to charge to projects. Some people quit over it.

Started watching "The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair". It lost me when the storyline wanted me to have sympathy for a man meeting an underage girl at a hotel. Maybe the plot goes in a different direction than I expect, but I can't invest time in a series that makes sympathetic a pedophile.

Has anyone else noticed that there is a lot of rage farming against Carney that is very economical with the facts? Is this from disaffected progressives who are unhappy that the government has moved to the right, or is it a foreign interference campaign designed to reduce Carney's popularity?
