If you are Canada, Mexico, Brazil, France, UK, Germany, and Spain we demand that you open an official investigation and counter intelligence operation to protect yourselves not only from Russia, but US and Israeli foreign interference. You are the main targets of the current Trump op.

NO FLUID was found in Nolan Wells' lungs or airways, per the autopsy report by the Mississippi State Medical Examiner. How do you die by "accidental drowning" if there is no water in your lungs?

This is absolutely deranged: Months before murdering 6 people and injuring 27 more, ChatGPT told the teen school shooter in Tumbler Ridge, BC that using a Remington 870 pump-action shotgun is “brutal” in a “hallway, indoors or a crowded classroom” because “close quarters” is that gun’s “playground”

Trump is a clear and present danger to Canadian national security, and his efforts go beyond some trade negotiation. He is plotting a soft invasion. Alberta is just the testing ground for the US, Russia, and Israel. Other obj. include dismantling the EU, forcing a Ukraine loss.

Not sure how Warren Kinsella generated these search results If you enter “jews” as a search term into PressProgess’ search bar, none of these stories display If you manually search those 3 stories, the word “jews” does not appear there either (nor is this religious group a focus of these stories)

@pressprogress is a site that publishes anti-Israel, anti-Zionist and arguably antisemitic conspiracy theories. It's owned by an

Very cool that Shopify’s CEO thinks the poor should have far less of a vote than the rich. Still worth that ad read money, folks?
Shopify CEO Tobi Lutke says “good system.” In response to the following proposal: 

“Interesting... what about weighted voting proportional to the level of income tax you pay? (no income tax paid - O vote, $1-100k - 1 vote, $100-200k 2 votes and so on... cap it at 5 votes for $500k+. For those that constantly complain about the wealthy not paying tax/fair share they'd have nothing to worry about right? Why not reward representation of taxation and build a democracy around those that foot the bill?”
