Dear billionaires; I refer you to the story about Robin Williams. This is what America used to celebrate before you bastards rigged the media and market. How did it feel to steal america’s middle class wealth. 🤬 Imo, the proletariat will rise against the bourgeoisie when the mania crashes. 🤞

Ok. You're a dissatisfied Chow supporter. I get it. Me too. But read this from @goldsbie.bsky.social In a near impossible situation to govern properly, Mayor Chow is clearly the candidate of choice right now.

I guess, in the end, Elbows Up means handing over our sovereignty to a cold-blooded, corporate technocrat of a PM instead of a bloody-minded America.

Hello, Canada, here’s a recipe made with our own Crosby’s Molasses and plenty of good Canadian cream. Maybe add a shot of Gooderham & Worts, Crown Royal or other Canadian whisky to the sauce. When possible, this is best served on a Spectra Aluminum wall panel.

crosbys.comOld Fashioned Gingerbread CakeGingerbread cake doesn’t have to be complicated. This recipe has stood the test of time, is trusted by generations of bakers, and it couldn’t be simpler to make. Enjoy this old fashione…

Canada's largest ice cream company used to source its fruits and nuts from U.S. suppliers — some for over 30 YEARS. Then, Trump imposed a 25% tariff on Canadian products. So, what did Chapman's do? They called Italy. They called Spain. They signed multi-year contracts with European suppliers.

21 days before the 25th anniversary of September 11th, the United States imposes 50% tariffs on the country that gave its citizens refuge during the worst terrorist attack in US history.

The persecution of Dr. Fauci is a disgrace. Why doesn't a Canadian university invite Anthony Faucci to Canada to take up residence as a professor emeritus? The federal government should take efforts to fast track the move.

re: "fringe group" — the vast majority of GTA residents do not, and likely never will, fly out of Billy Bishop, this was always special pleading from a narrow interest group, they just happen to be extremely wealthy

Blasting the federal government for listening to “a small fringe group in Toronto,” provincial Transportation Minister Prabmeet Sarkaria insists the Billy Bishop expansion is not dead.

I cannot believe a few guys making bets on a prediction market are driving some news coverage at CNN and CNBC. It’s clearly info slop, not news. This piece by @atrupar.com & @juddlegum.bsky.social reveals how truly bad it is & how viewers are being misled. Yikes. open.substack.com/pub/aaronrup...

WATCH: Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate, you really should watch & share this news story. It’s pretty much perfect. Ford claims wrongly that bike-lanes are bad for small business, and THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION obliterates him with data. toronto.citynews.ca/video/2024/1...

This is the only US president whose Easter message merits repeating. Imagine if instead of anyone quoting that other message—yes, we all know how rude and violent and unintelligent it was, no surprise there—we all opted instead to amplify decency.

Barack Obama@barackobama.bsky.social

To everyone celebrating Easter, Michelle and I wish you a joyful holiday filled with reminders of the enduring power of faith and hope.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Protesters will need to protest outside of media headquarters, this way the media that is afraid to cover the protests can’t ignore the movement. The only one covering the protests is Rachel Maddow @maddow.msnbc.com Idea came from a post that will not load, posting to pass it forward. 💙 Share

Absolutely! They’re just wonderful.

This is funny. And the serious problem with the NYT is it misinforms about reality. Not with inaccuracy so much as emphasis, perspective, and framing. That makes it a bad news source. Go to the Guardian, or Wired, or others/ independent sources. You don't need the NYT or LA Times, or WaPo.

Three million Americans marched today. Here’s why we wrote about one American who didn’t.

Hey #CBC, I guess we’re witnessing the risks of pre taping on #TheSundayMagazine today with zero acknowledgement of yesterday’s massive protests across the US. Embarrassing. And, as of today, just plain incorrect. Perhaps there’ll be a footnote?

The job of capital markets is to tell you "don't worry, be happy". They don't want to trigger a crisis in confidence. But this stance is pure madness.

I mean it. If anything he's done so far has been unimaginable to you, toss out the unimaginable. Holding onto power past 2028. An invasion of Canada. World War III. Another Holocaust. All have shifted from 'unimaginable' to 'possible' in our new reality. We fail to prepare at our peril. 2/2

Urging Canadians not to "buy Canadian" so much as "buy not-US." We benefit from being integrated in a global trading order, and if the US is withdrawing from that, we have reason to strengthen trade with the rest of the world.

The disgraceful behaviour in the White House is not about Trump or Vance. It is about the complicity of the entire political class of the United States and the American media. It is about the very soul of America. They either stand up for democracy or they stand for tyranny. The world is watching.
