Ships in the Great Lakes must travel through the Welland Canal. The 27mile canal contains 8 locks, & its entire length runs within Ontario,🇨🇦. $26.3B of 🇺🇸 trade is dependent on having unimpeded access to a waterway entirely under Canadian jurisdiction. I bet Trump never thought about that.

Please vote for “Ring of Fire”. It is worthy of your vote and so are the authors.

“…no matter how terrible Communism may at times appear, it still symbolizes an idea of man, whereas Hitler-Fascism was not an idea at all, but depravity…[Nazism] could not claim a single idea, but did possess a whole arsenal of confused, crackbrained notions…” - Jean Amery, “At the Mind’s Limits”

Learned behaviour. From the moment he slithered down the escalator murica has treated him like a living god. An orange creature above all the laws, spreading his hate and racism to the masses as they cheer and chant for him and his ignorance. He holds 40% of the country in his cult of hate. 🤷

On this day in 1905, Elsie MacGill was born. She oversaw the construction of 1,451 Hawker Hurricanes during the Second World War and was called "Queen of the Hurricanes". Learn more in my Deep Dive 👇 buff.ly/QaqvQun

Elsie MacGill standing beside a table while examining a curved, ribbed metal tube. She wears glasses and has dark hair pulled back, and is dressed in a buttoned dress with a brooch at the collar and a belt at the waist. She holds the tube with both hands and looks down at it. Several similar ribbed metal tubes lie across the table in front of her. The background shows a plain wall with a wooden trim running along it.

Happy Bouncing the Rhine Day for all who celebrate! 81 years ago today was Op. Varsity. It’s also the day that Fred ‘Toppy’ Topham earned his VC. If you want to hear about Canadians at Op. Varsity - and the story of how Toppy won a VC - you can listen to here: youtu.be/rnr2t7Zf1JQ?...

What’s really striking in Saruman’s speech to Gandalf is how broadly (and unusually for Tolkien) relevant it is. Take out the one specific reference to the Elves and Númenor and it is just an absolute classic rationale for collaborating with evil in the confidence you can ultimately direct it.

If you don’t think the Trump Regime is planning to steal the midterms, you are not paying attention.

"Camp X" was a training school for covert agents and a radio communications centre that operated during the Second World War. It served the needs of the Special Operations Executive, the British agency created in 1940 to “set Europe ablaze” by promoting sabotage and subversion behind enemy lines.

Woohoo! Back to school I go! Laurier University has accepted my application for grad school. This fall I start my MA in history. Getting old doesn’t have to mean stopping learning! Big thanks to @mike-bechthold.bsky.social for the encouragement and the reference!
