Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 06/10/2026The PQ which will form the next minority government in Quebec, promises to hold a referendum on separating from Canada once Trump is out of office. With Trump in power, they need Canada’s protection, but once that threat is gone, they will try to break up the country. Ooooh Canada… 030
Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 05/10/2026The PQ is not interested in closer ties to MAGA. Trump is toxic for the vast majority of Quebecers, separatists included. 021
Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Does anyone on Bluesky have anything to say about tomorrow’s election on Quebec. I’m following many Canadians but my feed is almost entirely USA. 000

Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Canadians should stop drinking at Starbucks and eating at MCDonalds choose Canadian coffee shops and fast food chains instead. A fast food boycott would garner a lot of attention, and we could start with these two companies. 1101224230

Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Communism is such a BS term. The way it is used in the US is utterly meaningless. 110
Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 16/09/2026I’m liking the Canada-Europe vibe going on. Canada might be saying behind the scenes, if you want us to buy your fighter jets, we expect you to stand with us militarily, because that’s really going to piss off the guy to the south. 020
Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 12/07/2026I disagree. Obama negotiated a nuclear nonproliferation deal with Iran which did much to establishing peace in the Middle East. Trump tore it up and started a war for no reason and with no international backing. That’s one of many examples of how he has been attacking rules-based world order. 110
Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 12/07/2026And yet so many people voted for him, meaning that for millions of Americans the issue of upholding the constitution was irrelevant. The country can slide into authoritarianism, as long as their side wins, and they are fine with that. 010
Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 12/07/2026There is no equivalence between GOP and Democrats. The Democrats are ineffective, disorganized and sometimes unreliable. Trump is a mob boss and a would be dictator and the GOP are his sycophants. They are set on destroying democracy. False equivalence plays into the hands of the authoritarians. 211
Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 11/07/2026I’ve no problem with changing the name “soccer” to “football,” but first we have to change the sport we call “football” here to “missile ball.” 030
Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 11/07/2026FIFA 2016 ranked Canada’s men 120th. Ten years later they made it to the round of 16 at the World Cup! Let that sink in for a minute. We’ve come a very long way. 010
Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 11/07/2026Please don’t look down on me for saying “soccer” instead of “football.” It’s not because I’m ignorant of the sport, it’s my dialect. I grew up playing a game called soccer. If we had called it football, it would have been confusing, because football was the name of another sport. 010

Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 07/07/2026The cheaters got into the heads of American fans, many of whom no longer wanted their team to win. They got into the heads of the players, who no longer played with the same drive. Before Trump’s intervention many neutrals wanted the US to win. But cheater in chief united us against them. 020

Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 05/07/2026Don’t hate on the term. It’s called soccer because it would be confusing to call it football in Canada and the US where there is another another sport called football. It’s our dialect, nothing political about that. 100
Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 04/07/2026I just saw a World Cup ad in which a man wakes up to an alarm he has set in order to bet on an early morning game. If the first thing you do upon waking is to start betting, you are a gambling addict. We are normalizing, encouraging and facilitating gambling addiction. 1101

Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 02/07/2026Toronto cancelled the WC Portugal-Croatia public viewing at Nathan Philips Square. Pity. The game starts at seven. We no longer have direct sun. It’s tolerable and it would have been an epic party. At school, I’ve seen too many “indoor lunches” and canceled activities due to “inclement weather.” 020

Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 27/06/2026Whatever one thinks of the leader of the opposition, question period serves a fundamental role in Canadian democracy by holding the government to account. The prime minister should not shirk this responsibility. 210
Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 25/06/202624 Sussex is an embarrassment. It has to be fixed. This is a non-partisan issue. By the time the renovations are completed, in all likelihood Canada will have a different prime minister. 1123
Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 25/06/2026Is there rule of law when citizens are baselessly arrested on the whims of the powerful? 010
Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 25/06/2026This seems like a wise decision. If the condo market is down, the government can step in to buy up some of the market and make it available right away to those who need it. The same can be done in Toronto. 030
Rod @roddlyyours.bsky.social · 25/06/2026This movie is a beautiful in its openness to sexual exploration.
