Anyone else finding that Aljazeera is the most reliable source for Iran conflict news? The msm keeps reporting what Trump says, which is total fiction.

Blockade? So the US navy challenges a Chinese vessel to stop, and it fails to do so, what’s next?

Trump is an ignorant fool. He has no idea that there’s been a civilization in Iran for over 3000 years. He’s not going to change that.

According to Hegseth, the rules of engagement are “no quarter”. On that basis, we should expect Iran to execute the downed pilot, if they catch him.

So now Trump is demolishing the Kennedy Centre. And Americans just stand by while he dismantles every institution.

Is anyone else seeing the parallels between Kent State and Minneapolis, right down to the protest songs? History rhymes, and little changes.

The next time PM Carney visits Washington, he should award Trump the Golden Hockeystick or something. Trump will be putty in his hands. 🇨🇦

A 6-year-old just lost his mother. A woman was shot in the face in front of her wife. The swift, lockstep attempt to dehumanize and villainize Renee Nicole Good might be the most depraved thing we've seen yet from these ghouls and their supporters. These people are utterly fucking dead inside.

Trump keeps bragging about how well the U.S. stock market has performed in the past year. The actual fact is that all other major markets - UK, France, Germany, Canada, Italy and especially S. Korea - have significantly outperformed the Americans. The U.S. is way behind the rest of the world. 🇨🇦

What are we waiting for? 🇨🇦Canada wants advance requests for MAID now. Let’s go! 🤔🧐🙄 www.torontotoday.ca/local/health...

Advocates push for advance MAID requests 2 years after Parliament recommendation
Canada's medical assistance in dying laws do not allow for advance requests, which are written under specific conditions and made before the patient loses capacity to provide consent

A few Reagan ads are one thing, but the publicity this is getting across the US is worth far more than the cost of the ad buy. The US administration is squirming under the weight of the truth. And they are so mad they are spitting! Good! #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

A cartoon of a man leaning out an apartment window saying, “I’m gonna light these firecrackers inside!”  A woman is leaning out of a window saying, “WHAT?! NO!! I live above you! You’ll wreck the whole building!!” The man says, “Mind your own business!” There is a black screen and it says, “And that's what it feels like being Canadian
