It appears, B, you've missed the point. CA is facing an existential threat to its sovereignty and we must stand together regardless of domestic pol debates. I do not need to agree with Angus' or Chretien's or probably your political stances to welcome all CA to the fight against US imperialism.

Adam Schiff is an old man, a member of the "Gerontocracy" that runs the congress & senate that my American friends are disgusted with. To ask us, however sweetly, to stop the boycott shows how tone deaf he is to CA. Doesn't he get it that if he wants action, the only way is to go after Trump?

Sorry, but no... a spot in the quarter finals is not on the line. They have to win one more game after this to be in the quarter finals. They are playing in the round of 32 teams (16 games), the quarter finals has 8 teams (4 games) so if they win today, they go to the next round of 16 teams,(8 games

How astounding is it that a group proudly displaying Canada in its title would invite Pompeo and the grossly unpopular Hogstra to speak at their event when the vast majority of Canadians entirely reject Trump/MAGA wingnut conservatism? How f...ing tone deaf are these people?

Your perception of the play is disgustingly crass. The point is not the plot, it is the marvelous and pleasurably prose. Your inability to grasp that and a suspension of disbelief proves to me your utter lack of imagination.

No, someone dying accidentally, regardless of whom and regardless of circumstance, does NOT brighten my day. That kind of thing is celebrated by, for example, Trump sycophants and MAGA types. Are you telling us your moral compass is just like theirs?

Additioinally, Canada recently completed a new LNG export pipeline and terminal at Kitimat BC which, potentially, can lead to Canada becoming the leading exporter of LNG in the world.

Here in Canada fuel prices are, of course, up like the rest of the world but we face no shortages as our production of oil and gas exceeds our demand. There is, in fact, a silver lining as export demand has spiked. 1/2

Given everything on Trump’s plate right now, i.e. Epstein, inflation, ICE, court losses, and his increasingly dementia-addled brain, Canada is way under his radar. Just leave it that way.

95% of current US trade is transacted virtually tariff free under USMCA rules at least until July of next year when it’s scheduled for renewal. I can’t imagine anything we could negotiate at this time that could possibly improve on that. 2/3

There are no trade negotiations because there is no possible outcome of a revised agreement with a dictator wannabe who has proven he will cancel it on a childless whim. 95% of current US trade is transacted tariff free under USMCA rules at least until July of next year when it’s up for renewal.2/3

One of the many boomers experienced with caring for aged parents, I couldn't help but compare Trump's UN speech with the demented ramblings I've witnessed in the halls of care homes. Completely oblivious to the fact, in front of the whole world, that he is living alone in his own false reality.

If I was a world leader, I would propose a UN resolution recommending Norway give Trump the Nobel Peace Prize on condition he first resign the US presidency and retire from public life forever. I'm afraid he's not quite demented enough to do it but at least he will have earned it.

How upset are Canadians with Trump? A survey shows 90% agree he is a bully, a liar and a cheat. In every measurable way, we are disassociating ourselves from the USA, once our greatest ally and friend, and we’re never going back. Read this article. Its not funny at all. www.msn.com/en-ca/news/c...

Not for the first time, Trump validated through his ignorant and boorish behavior the worst perceptions of Americans held by Canadians. We don’t think its funny when he calls us “the 51st state”, lies about fentanyl smuggling and slaps punishing tariffs on us in spite of a FTA he himself signed.2/3

Trump and his sycophants, like Benny Johnson and Jeanine Pero, talk fascist "tough" about emptying black neighborhoods and clearing the streets of homeless people but no one in the cowardly media pool seems daring enough to ask the simple question: Where will you be disappearing these people TO?

The author of uses the hockey analogy of "ragging the puck" to describe Carney's lay low and delay tactics in negotiations to continue to trade under CUSMA where 95% of goods continue to trade tariff free. That's what a team does when it is winning, slow the game down and play out the clock.

Why Canada Isn't Sweating Trump's Mob Tactics
For months, Trump has railed against Canada, threatening to turn America’s neighbor into the 51st state — but the U.S. still has a treaty with Canada.

A Gordie Howe quote about "Elbows Up": If a guy slashed me, I'd grab his stick, pull him up alongside me and elbow him in the head. In other words, Elbows Up is a defensive response against a dirty player sending the message: Don't do it again!
