My family came to Canada in 1991 at the end of the Cold War. My mother brought me here when I was five after marrying a member of the Canadian Air Force. Canada welcomed us and gave us a home.

That’s amazing! I made a slight error though. Mine is the MD005-B Black Variant.

WHAT'S THAT ALT MODE? Day 6. Clue: This real-world car was so dominant that a typical race in the late 70s had at least five of them on the grid. Guess in the comments. Reveal tomorrow. #transformers #guessthealtmode #whatsthataltmode #autobot #toyphotography

Day 5 tomorrow. Real truck is a Swedish heavy-duty forward-control from 1965. About 61k were built before 1977. 1984 toy looks like a dump truck, but the mold started as an American truck for a cancelled line. Silhouette is my modded figure, so profile is slightly off. Reveal tomorrow. #transformers

Tomorrow’s TFOTD reveal is coming! But first... let’s play "Who’s That Transformer?" He’s an unhappy loner who hates his alt mode and rarely talks. Only combat makes him feel alive. This will be an easy one. Any guesses before tomorrow? #TFOTD #Transformers #WhosThatTransformer #GuessWho

Squad update! Just finished adding @toyhax.com cel-shaded windows to Legacy Gears. The sunroof is a great touch. He and DCS Jazz make a solid duo, especially with Vector Prime watching over them.

Watching from Canada as the US "AI Jesus" post ignites a firestorm. After attacking Pope Leo XIV, Trump shared—then deleted—a photo of himself as a divine healer Evangelicals are calling it blasphemy, especially after his Easter threats to "end a civilization" in Iran #Trump #Politics2026 #Vatican

Never thought I’d agree with MTG, but here we are.🇨🇦 As a Canadian vet & son of an Anglican priest, seeing Trump’s AI “Savior” photo is sickening. It bastardizes the values of humility I was raised on. You can’t attack the Pope then cosplay as Jesus. It’s "Antichrist spirit." 🛑 #cdnpoli #Faith #Trump

A perfect (and terrifying) metaphor for the MAGA mindset. 🦂🐸 It’s not just about winning anymore; it’s about a "burn it all down" approach that ends in mutual destruction. As a Canadian, I’m voting Liberal to keep our politics about progress, not stings. 🇨🇦 #CdnPoli #Liberal #NoMAGA #Satire #Canada

Trump is live-tweeting a war crime. Threatening to "end a civilization" by bombing power plants and bridges at 8pm is a direct violation of the Geneva Convention. Apparently, international law is just a suggestion now? 🙄 We have 9 hours to demand de-escalation. #Iran Crisis
