I don’t remember this SCTV sketch but, man, I do love Dave Thomas and Catherine O’Hara.

Trump said this morning, “Canada wants the benefits of being a State, without being one!!” He is clearly still hung up on the 51st state stuff. This is economic war as a prelude to annexation/invasion…1/

What we want is for the United States to keep its word and follow the terms of CUSMA, that was negotiated and signed by Trump in 2018, that it has been in violation of since Trump began levying tariffs last year…2/2

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.

Lloyd Robertson has died. Born in 1934 in Stratford, he was one of Canada's most celebrated journalists. He was the anchor of CTV's national nightly news from 1984 to 2011. He was also one of the longest-serving news anchors on English-language North American television. 📸 CTV

There are three things I always check to determine if a video I'm watching is AI: 1. Do all the people in the video have the correct number of digits? 2. Are all the signs or labels in a real language or are they composed of bizarre made-up gibberish? 3. Is the cat fingering the saxophone correctly?

MAGA premier Danielle "DONBAS" SMITH wrote legislation making it illegal for the courts to question the constitutionality of a referendum to break up our country. She forgets her legislature sits on treaty land. Mic drop moment.

Listening to Trump this morning, there is no doubt that this needs to be a wake-up call for Canada. His speech this morning invoking the Munroe Doctrine, the new US security policy referring to Western Hemisphere as vassal states.../1

Canada needs to take see the invasion of Venezuela for what it is - a deliberate attack on the international rules based order. We have a bandit nation on our border and we need to be ready for whatever comes next. charlieangus.substack.com/p/venezuela-...

charlieangus.substack.comVenezuela - The Lesson for CanadaMake no mistake, the attack on Venezuela by the Trump regime is not about removing a rogue leader; it is a deliberate attack on international law.

Is it too much to ask that the US and its President honour his word, and the trade deal he wanted to negotiate, agreed to, signed, that Congress enacted into law. Why would any country sign any agreement with him on any topic when he continually demonstrates that his word is worthless?

Also Trump this morning: "Trump: "We don't need anything from Canada, and yet it costs up $200b in subsidy to keep Canada afloat. So when I say they should be a state, I mean that. I really mean that ... some people don't have the cards."
