Carney's response is gratifying, although the fact that they asked him for a response is also....irritating. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

Carney laughs at Trump's claim that Canada will apologize to U.S.
Asked by CBC News about U.S. President Donald Trump's comment on Monday that Canada will soon apologize to get a trade deal, Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canada 'stands ready to negotiate in good f...

Your point being? Most of us know who the bag of shit is and how useless he is. They still waged war on my country and the best of us find it irritating.

This is where I went to school. It is typically known to be a very liberal, progressive university. This is ass backwards and makes me so angry.

I feel like there's been an uptick of this on bsky lately, and part of me thinks they have to be supporting the disinformation campaign ...even though a lot do seem like legit accounts.

It only takes so much to convince a certain contingent of the population and tip the balance... I may have found Harper to have had the charisma of shoe box, but clearly he had his time in office despite what i thought.

Came here to say this. I'm even more concerned about how they are/will be used in "private" spaces. Women, children, and everyone else who will become someone's victim are the reasons to ban them.

I dislike PP as much as the next person, but he's only a joke until the CPC finally adopt a charismatic leader. Before that happens, we need to start writing a lot of letters to local CPC reps demanding that they denounce the radicalization of their party. Healthy opposition parties are important.

Visiting Ottawa in summer 2025, I was pretty pissed to see that Rebel News was driving propaganda ad vehicles around Byward Market spewing bullshit about how she is a CDN hero. We need to put an end to nonsense like this once and for all. It's not free speech when what you'resaying is pure lies.

As a CDN, I'm so refreshed and grateful to see this thread -- with all the comments that are genuinely welcoming to us and not riddled with the steadfast exceptionalism that even the most well-meaning US citizens bring to a conversation. Thank you, EU.

Thank you! He is in high school and fabulous. He is very bright in science and that, coupled with being deaf, was far too much for his elementary school to handle. My mental health has gotten much better, but is always a delicate work in progress. X

Caregivers overwhelm is real. It's incredibly difficult to be a constant caregiver, and honouring your needs isn't selfish. I only fully realized how serious it can be after years of advocating for my child with hearing loss leading to a complete nervous breakdown and years of anxiety/depression.

I'm so grateful for PM Carney. "And may we never forget that, 25 years on, the truest tribute is to serve – to look after the stranger amongst us simply because help is needed."

It's not just about him being in charge. There will always be a sizeable contingent of your population that support this & hate Canada for nothing else than buying in to the hateful lies of power-hungry buffoons. It has always been this way, but now we have reason to stop entertaining the bullshit.

Does anyone know who is actually behind this initiative? The site isn't explicitly transparent about ownership and, I'm starting to get hyper aware of companies riding the CDN wave. Says it's made in Canada, for Canada, data stays in Canada, but doesn't share who is actually building it or owns it.
010
Yeti's Mama 🇨🇦 @yetismama.bsky.social · 05/09/2026
I'm eager, but cautious as well -- the site is also not explicitly saying who the owners are, and, I think, in our excitement to support CDN, we are also going to have to get diligent around ensuring we aren't getting duped. Not saying that's the case here, but I would like more transparency.

Yeah, it's a REAL CDN cadet ad, because here in Canada, we know that in peacekeeping operations, and defense operations, just as in life, DIVERSITY is strength. One person's brawn, another person's brain. And you'll get the best both have to offer, with some basic respect. Everyone belongs, Bitches.

And that's why even someone like me, who worked in Michigan for 5 years, and then worked for the American marketing organization of one of the largest tech giants in the world --someone who still has plenty of friends in the US--will never trust America again.

It was obvious that no offense was intended....but thought I'd share additional perspective. Thanks for your openness to "hearing" it.

Shared w/good intention, but from a mom w/a child who is deaf, pls know that lumping blind & deaf people in w/uneducated, stupid, racist, and evil is problematic - both because those things are undesirable, AND because blind & deaf ppl are able to take in info in many ways to make informed choices.

Fom summer vaca -- L'Anse à Cale Sèche, Tadoussac, Quebec, Canada. A beautiful natural cove and historic tidal drydock, sitting at the scenic confluence of the Saguenay Fjord and the St. Lawrence River. Seeing the Saguenay Fjord is understanding why #Quebec is nicknamed "la belle province." #CANADA
L'Anse à Cale Sèche, Tadoussac, Quebec, Canada. A beautiful natural cove and historic tidal drydock, sitting at the scenic confluence of the Saguenay Fjord and the St. Lawrence River. Tidepools exposed by the low tide sit in the foreground, and rocks line the shore which give way to a thick line of conifers on the right side of the image. The left side of the photo has a father and son looking out into the waters, hopeful to spot a passing minke whale. In the distance, just below passing clouds, is the final ridge of the beautiful Saguenay Fjord, as it graciously opens up to the mighty St. Lawrence River. The sky is lit a pale blue by the light of the sun.

Better question is why give these dip shits air time on Canadian media? We don't have to play along with their bullshit.

Yeti's Mama 🇨🇦 @yetismama.bsky.social · 25/08/2026
There will always be a large-enough contingent of their population that hates Canada & belittles our place in the world. Let that guide your spending decisions. The season of putting up with their frail ego is over. It's so done. I'd rather lick a sidewalk than support anything American, ever again.

Dreaming of TCI. Again. I-Soon Reach. #TurksandCaicos
A photo of the back side of an "I-Soon Reach" beer can from the Turks and Caicos Islands. The following words written in white on the black can: 

Island time is taken pretty seriously here in the Turks and Caicos. While the rest of the world rushes from one thing to another, we have learned the value of taking the scenic route. It often takes a bit longer, but that's usually just the start to a good story. So next time someone tells you that they "Soon Reach," they could be right around the corner or just setting sail from Salt Cay en route to Grand Turk. Be prepared for a tale when they finally get there.

Q. "Buddy, where are you?"
A. "Just down da road. I-Soon-Reach"

As the war that America waged on my country persists with its unrelenting disinformation attacks, I take solace in the most comforting American ex-pats that I know. Yeti Snow & Sundari Pumpkin Spice. #cats
Chocolate silver Ocicat, Yeti Snow, and his sister, chocolate Ocicat, Sundari Pumpkin Spice, lie together on a child's bed with stuffed animals framing them. The cats are sleeping with Yeti's head resting on top of Sundari's, and Sundari's face nuzzled into Yeti. They are both facing forward, though asleep.

Cleo was interesting as she seemed to go thru phases where she'd be svelte, and then she'd be so fuzzy. We used to joke that she'd gain a winter fuzz coat when it got cold enough.

Ironically, she looks very dark in this photo, but the older she got, the more dilute she appeared, quite like your Dawni.
