U.S. November midterm elections preview. 💀

The Russian data‑centre collapse hits different when Alberta separatism is already being poked by foreign actors. Kremlin ghosts stirring the pot, Alberta flirting with secession, and everyone pretending this isn’t the most chaotic timeline

Canada is intentionally choosing its international partners to hedge against external economic pressures while keeping its core constitutional and domestic governance fully intact. #cdnpoli; #EUalliance;

The Chretien Clutch in action!

For the late/west coast crowd, my Loonie Politics column: We have no allies in the US, and there is no going back to "normal" #cdnpoli

Proud today. Proud that Canada stood tall, spine straight, and walked away from trade talks that tried to strong‑arm us into submission. We didn’t bow to bully tactics we chose our own dignity over desperation

Terry Fox would've turned 68 today. Beside the word "hero" in every dictionary, there should be a photo of Terry Fox. One stop for him on his Marathon of Hope was throwing out the first pitch at a Jays game at Exhibition Stadium on July 11, 1980. Photo: Jann Van Horne, CP

The US tried to absorb Canada in 1775. It tried again in 1812. Today the fights are over trade, not territory. Canada's response remains remarkably consistent: we're happy to be neighbours, but not possessions.

Lo, the smoke rolls in like a faithless army, stealing breath and dimming the sun. I stand upon my balcony, a jaundiced old bag with no fire left in the forge, letting the grey air claim me. Ambition flees. Oxygen thins. Yet still I endure, stubborn as any old crone of the sagas.

🚨SEND PETE HOEKSTRA PACKING🚨 The House of Commons petition to declare U.S. Ambassador Pete Hoekstra persona non grata has reached 5,009 signatures. To hit 100K in the remaining 119 days, it now needs to average just 798/day. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 🔗 e-7531: www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

And what the hell does he think our firefighters are doing up here? Taking naps? I hate this man with the heat of 1 billion suns 🤬

having the muppets playing at the world cup was not on my bingo card but here we are....

14 July '26 When the news cameras leave, & there's no more photo ops, our #politicians race off to chase the next big headline (while leaving out a great deal of info). But I'm still here: digging out, cleaning up, looking after my neighbours, & looking behind the curtain. #ABPoli #ABTory #ToryParty

Elon Musk's purchase of Twitter was a huge boon for right-wing political parties. It might also be their biggest liability right now -- one that encourages in-fighting, ideological extremism, and other politically toxic behaviours. #cdnopoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/07/10/o...

I think J.D. Vance needs to visit Mitch McConnel in the hospital....

This isn’t polite‑Canadian soccer anymore — this is red‑and‑white chaos, this is maple‑fury, this is a country kicking down a door it was never supposed to reach. We are in it, clawing forward, storm‑blessed and unhinged. Let the world tremble. Canada came to feast.

#cdnpoli when the right wing rage machine is co-ordinated this is why....

Devil. Ten of Swords. Death The deck spat nothing but endings sharp, final, inevitable. Even the crows on my balcony went quiet, waiting for the fall of DJT.

No means no — and the Cup says no to Carter Hart. The ice says no. The storm says no. The ancestors say no. His hands will never lift that trophy #NHL

Ron MacLean’s apology lands like a puck off the post — technically there, but nowhere near the net. A ‘roofie’ joke isn’t a slip, it’s a window into the rot that still clings to hockey culture. Clean the booth clean the whole damn house. The game evolves the people calling it need to evolve to #NHL

Vegas mascot clatters onto the ice in his grab‑bag of centuries Spartan helm a Greek cuirass a 14th‑century shield a historical chimera stitched by someone who clearly lost a fight with Google Image Search I’m lighting incense and begging the ancestors to forgive this armour‑timeline abomination.

I am withdrawing my energy from this year’s Stanley Cup playoffs. My spirit refuses to feast where the vibes feel off, where the ice hums with something sour and unseen. I don’t cheer for crowns built on disquiet, nor do I bind my joy to a game that leaves a bad taste in my bones.

I cannot express how much this administration enrages me - Trump allies renew Greenland, Canada takeover talk www.axios.com/2026/06/03/t...

We call ourselves "intelligent," yet the humblest fungus can decompose waste and build soil, a tree can harness solar energy, and a wetland can purify water—all without toxic byproducts. True intelligence is learning from these systems, not bulldozing them.

If I didn't already love the #Habs finding out I share a birthday with Martin St Louis just made my day

I don’t need a crystal ball to see it — the Habs are playing like they’ve got sigils under their tape and a guardian spirit in the crease. Montreal’s magic is humming, the vibes are righteous, and the Sabres are just guests in this ritual. Blessings to the boys, hexes to the opposition. 🧿 #gohabsgo

Americans demanding the King meet Epstein survivors need to stop projecting. The monarch legally is the state — if he met victims, defence lawyers could scream bias and blow up the cases, including the one involving his brother. It’s not justice. It’s self‑sabotage.

You can’t deny agency to others using a standard you refuse to apply to yourself. Pre‑nation actors still shape history—on both sides of the border.

Dismissing Canadian involvement because of “official status” while celebrating pre‑nation American action is selective logic—used to minimize Canadian impact while excusing identical conditions at home

In 1812, Canada as a legal state didn’t exist—but people, militias, colonial governments, and a shared defensive identity absolutely did. History isn’t erased by paperwork.

The American colonies also weren’t a country when they rebelled against Britain. No recognized sovereignty. No independence. Yet no one argues the Revolution “doesn’t count.”

Americans saying “Canada wasn’t a country in 1812, so it couldn’t have burned the White House” are using a convenient technicality, not a serious historical argument.

“The separatist threat “opened our eyes to what’s going on,” Chief Allan Adam of Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation in Treaty 8 told The Breach. “It’s a white supremacist movement. I hate to say it that way, but there’s no other way to say it.” breachmedia.ca/how-first-na...
