76th Prime Suburban Dad of Canada (2019 - Pres.) @webhamster.bsky.social · 21/04/2025I would like to announce that I WILL NOT be a candidate for Pope in the upcoming election. This is due to family reasons as my married-with-kid lifestyle is incompatible with the papacy. Also, there is the fact that as an atheist my views may sometimes conflict with those of the church. Thank you. 020

76th Prime Suburban Dad of Canada (2019 - Pres.) @webhamster.bsky.social · 21/02/2025Seriously? Are people just now cottoning on to the fact that Wayne Gretzky is a Trump-loving, anti-Canada MAGAt? He’s been a douchebag for a long, long time! #Canada 020
76th Prime Suburban Dad of Canada (2019 - Pres.) @webhamster.bsky.social · 12/02/2025I don’t understand the house across the way from us. During the PSAC strike they had big “I support my union!” and “Union proud!” signs. Yet every election they have a lawn sign for the Conservative candidate… 🤔 000
76th Prime Suburban Dad of Canada (2019 - Pres.) @webhamster.bsky.social · 10/02/2025For all of his “51st State” rhetoric and the Maple Magats who love it people seem to forget that Canada would not be a “state” under any circumstance. Canada would be a territory with no voting rights. His Canada hatred isn’t puzzling when you realize his goal is to seize ALL of North America. 010
76th Prime Suburban Dad of Canada (2019 - Pres.) @webhamster.bsky.social · 10/02/2025Trump’s rhetoric and Canada hatred is only escalating and it’s goddamn scary. Canada needs to declare a national security emergency immediately and start placing troops at the border. I fear that Trump’s next move will be sending US troops over our border by May. In fact, I’ll put money on that. 000

76th Prime Suburban Dad of Canada (2019 - Pres.) @webhamster.bsky.social · 07/02/2025My son was trying to say “tyrannosaurus” but it came out sounding more like “tranosaurs”. The image that put in my head made me say: “The way the US is going lately they’ll probably soon make tranosaurs illegal too.” It’s bad joke, but sometimes you have to try to find humour in the bad things. 000
76th Prime Suburban Dad of Canada (2019 - Pres.) @webhamster.bsky.social · 03/02/2025I’ve come around on this issue. I don’t think Canada should shut off the power we supply to the US. Slap a 25% export tax on it. Double it every month the tariffs remain. When everyone’s power bill suddenly doubles or triples you’ll see them wake up and take action. 011

A king who is visibly losing his mind declaring a war based on a dream he had. Greedy courtiers feuding over access to the treasury. Some looks are timeless. 71116622640
76th Prime Suburban Dad of Canada (2019 - Pres.) @webhamster.bsky.social · 02/02/2025Honestly, I’d say cut off the power flowing to the US right at the kickoff of the Super Bowl next week. But I’m also terribly afraid that would just lead to The Very Unstable Genius carpet bombing Toronto. 000
76th Prime Suburban Dad of Canada (2019 - Pres.) @webhamster.bsky.social · 02/02/2025The President of the United States has just issued a declaration of war against the sovereign nation of Canada calling for out total and complete submission to his will. Cool, cool. And totally normal. What the actual fuck, America?!? Deal with this. 000
76th Prime Suburban Dad of Canada (2019 - Pres.) @webhamster.bsky.social · 02/02/2025You know what? I think I’m done with social media. At least for a while.

76th Prime Suburban Dad of Canada (2019 - Pres.) @webhamster.bsky.social · 26/01/2025The other night I watched an episode of “Hockey: A People’s History” about hockey from 1900-1930. Now, watching this game has me wondering the reaction if we could teleport someone from 1925 to watch a 2025 hockey game. What would their reaction be? (Aside from “Holy shit! I time travelled!!!) 100
