Proud Canadian, and want to stay that way…but at this time would favourably (note spelling) consider Canada joining the E.U.

If Putin stops fighting, the war ends. If Zelensky stops fighting then his country will be occupied, leaders murdered, language banned, businesses stolen, children kidnapped. That's what happens in Russian-occupied Ukraine.

🚨🚨 @coe.int of Europe said yesterday that the #US formally notified it that it would leave the Group of States against Corruption, or #GRECO. Only two other countries have left GRECO before — #Russia and #Belarus. The fall of the #US on the world scene is striking. apnews.com/article/trum...

It is downright odd to see so many people believe they are taking a bold moral stand by shoving their head entirely up their own arse.

It is fascinating that as Trump threatens and insults US allies to try and get them to get him out of this ridiculous strategic bind, he does not have the courage to even ask Putin politely to stop helping Iran kill American soldiers. Interesting that.

🚨DAMN‼️Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew doesn’t mince words about Trump and the conflict in Iran. Saying the quiet part out loud, this war is a distraction from the Epstein Files and Trump is “public enemy number one” when it comes to the economy. Bravo Mr Kinew, more of this please‼️

Europe must not assist the US in its war against Iran: 1. Europe must focus on helping Ukraine defeat Russia. 2. Trump has abandoned Ukraine & gone over to Russia. 3. The Israeli-US war against Iran is a war of choice. 4. Rubio: Israel compelled the US to join. /1

Hey Canada, can we (with Mexico) get our act together for inviting the world to come here and Mexico for the World Cup? We don’t have all the games, but we have lots and for the rest we could plan larger fan zones. Big parties. For all those folks who don’t want to go to the U.S.

Why is the world treating the symptoms and not focused on the disease? One man should not control the worlds economy. How are leaders everywhere allowing this to happen and spending time appeasing him to “negotiate” instead of standing together against this man’s insanity?

We were lucky to have this guy in a position of authority during Brexit, doing what he could to limit the damage. Canadians would be lucky to get him as prime minister. Let much the perfect candidate for this moment.

@charlieangus104.bsky.social How about a big push for Canadian national infrastructure projects. Let’s use what otherwise would be exported to the United States (Trump said he didn’t need anything from us anyway). Build roads, railways, housing and maybe a really big long wall.

The crawling for Trump must end. Zelenskyy is the only one so far that has had the guts to stand up to Trump. If we start factoring in what Trump might think about this or that before we discuss things we are in as much trouble as the Americans.
