Seriously, WHEREVER you are in the world, I recommend watching all of Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney’s powerful & already famous speech at Davos. Can’t underestimate its leadership importance. Key line: “Middle powers must work together, because if we’re not at the table, we’re on the menu.”

Trump cites dairy tariffs of 250% but doesn't mention they "only kick in after the US has hit a certain, Trump-negotiated quantity of zero-tariff sales to Canada." "The US is not currently filling its zero-tariff sales quota in any category of dairy product, so the tariffs aren’t being applied."

Excited to see our new article out, led by Alex Martin. We explore the limited engagement and inclusion of Indigenous Peoples in US & Canadian urban forest management plans, and provide some recommendations for those developing UF plans and future research.

Here's the speech if you haven't heard it. 13 minutes of your time. Share it with your American friends and neighbours, because they won't see it otherwise. Circulate it in Mexico and Denmark, France and the UK, Panama and Germany, Poland and Estonia, and especially -- especially -- Ukraine.

Los Angeles must have built so many bike lanes to create this awful traffic. Right?!? (This is a Toronto subskeet, where whoever is in charge of the government wants to remove bike lanes to reduce traffic congestion).

Respect to Bernie Sanders for putting together this video with an important message that I very much hope reaches people on the left who are considering not voting for Kamala Harris or sitting this election out.

Holy shit. This is the most eloquent, pointed, and personal political speech I've ever heard in my (M54) life. It deserves to be the most consequential. Harris is great afterward, but Michelle Obama's speech should really define a new era in American politics. www.youtube.com/live/vaYXybm...
