Protests against Trump in 16 Quebec cities, Here's pics of a border crossing and in front of the American consulate. They braved the cold temps to protest the attacks on women's rights and human rights, and the economic war Trump started against Canada. ELBOWS UP!

I'm extremely grateful that immediately after Trump's disgraceful performance with President Zelenskyy, Prime Minister Trudeau made Canada's support of Ukraine absolutely clear: "For three years now, Ukrainians have fought with courage and resilience...

We needed dog food. Switching to a Canadian brand. 🇨🇦 Trump bulling behaviourwilll probably contiue and I have no intention of buying anything from the US if I can help it. Plus Trump is gutting/muzzling all the food/health regulatory systems. My trust in their safety is severely reduced.

Grocery shopping took a little more time today today because I had to check everything to see where it was produced. I got almost everything made in Canada, several items from Mexico, and a few from Spain and Italy.

The EU is demanding answers from Elon Musk over political interference by the X algorithm. Canada needs to take steps to prevent Musk from interfering in our election. Contact Elections Canada and demand an investigation: stephane.Perrault@elections.ca www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

I played around with this picture trying to come up with a caption connecting Musk and Poilievre but I'm not feeling very creative. Please I know someone can put their creative (devious?) mind to work and come up with a better caption. I look forward to seeing what others can come up with. 😁

Last Trump Repub admin left the Paris Accord and overturned environmental protections,betrayed NATO and allied with Putin. Today's MAGA slogan is "drill baby drill". MAGA USA is the enemy of democracies and human rights around the world.It's a David & Goliath fight,humanity is in the balance. 😥

Louder for those in the back. Poilievre is just one more jerk upholding more wealth for the wealthy and less for everyone else - not the populist hero he makes out. There's a very real danger in the upcoming election that this man and his narrative win power. #cdnpoli

No wonder Elon Musk wants to install Pierre Poilievre as Prime Minister. He is the only opposition leader in history who won't or can't get a security clearance. Hell you need a security clearance to volunteer at the library. He also voted against multiple times against support for Ukraine.

Elon Musk endorsed the German AFD neo Nazis party, he's threatening to interfere in Britain's future elections, he condemned Trudeau and endorsed Poilievre in Canada. The one the he doesn't seem to want to do in is talk about actual authoritarian tyrannical governments. thehill.com/policy/techn...

Today a New York federal appeals court upheld a jury's verdict that Donald Trump sexually abused and defamed columnist E. Jean Carroll and owes her $5 million. Thinking about when he called Mexican migrants rapists and criminals seems more than a little ironic now. apnews.com/article/trum...
