So I just listened to the new episode yesterday but I was grooming my poodles and couldn’t run here to comment! I grew up in rural Saskatchewan, I’m 51. My hometown is Maidstone, SK. I kid you not, we had a huge rape flower statue with “The Rape Capital of Canada” as the slogan under it.
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com Today, as the Israeli government “calls on tens of thousands of reservists to participate in the cruel re-occupation of Gaza City, I implore my fellow soldiers: Refuse to report,” Yotam Vilk writes in a guest essay.
Plus button down collar and a suit are just no 🙅🏻♀️
It’s so lazy!
I can only speak for Canada but polite, respectful Americans have been welcomed warmly up here. The suspension of post is due to tariff collection that foreign postal services are not equipped to accommodate. US gov didn’t foresee cause…well… they are 🤡🤡🤡
I believe Canada Post is also not shipping parcels to the US anymore.
The United Nations-backed authority on starvation has declared a famine in Gaza City.
She wants Sandra bullock or Julia Roberts career but women loved them. Not gonna make successful romantic comedies if most women think you are unlikeable. But bless her heart for trying though
More than 150 Canadians detained, including 2 children. You couldn’t pay me to cross.
He’s would allow a younger, progressive Dem candidate to take over. No ugly primary
The most important part of this article, to me, is the end. It challenges a false binary between “long COVID” and “everyone else.” Maybe it's a spectrum... 🧵 (1/5) www.bmj.com/content/390/...
The big box retailer has struggled with slumping sales recently amid a backlash over its retreat from diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives.
I live in Canada where target flipped but I’m boycotting with you on spirit

It is possible to get the sniffles — or worse — in the summer. Federal data released Friday, for example, shows COVID-19 is trending up in most states, with emergency department visits up among people of all ages. Here’s what to know about summer viruses.
"All I really use the internet for is sourdough and when Travis shows me videos of otters," Swift said on New Heights. She also shouted out Brad Pitt—so maybe she should surf the web a little bit more. www.jezebel.com/taylor-swift...
I was so angry when I couldn’t get it and could only sign up to get one I left website. But you are right, it’s a good idea. Ugh it’s so stupid here
Is there any pushback from the party? I’ve been watching all this unfold from Canada for weeks and I’m just in shock. I thought Labour winning was a relief. Good God.
Also AE has positioned itself as an inclusive brand. They catered to all shapes and sizes. Regardless of how much this blew up, their core customer base felt betrayed. This will not go away for them. Very stupid business move
⚡️Ukraine awards Order of Freedom to journalist killed in Russian captivity. "Viktoria was one of those who spoke the truth about the war. She worked on the front lines and in temporarily occupied territories, risking her life," President Volodymyr Zelensky said.
The book isn’t perverted, the 2 movie adaptations were though. Humbert in the novel is an unreliable narrator and revealed to be a child predator. It’s worth examining again if you have read it, the movies are trash.
There is a petition being brought forward to the Canadian government to send peacekeepers. I’m not sure much will come of it but politicians are finding it increasingly difficult to ignore the fact that citizens are not going to tolerate the status quo with Israel anymore
The comments here 🤦🏻♀️. It is possible to criticize her work and her field WITHOUT COMMENTING ON HER LOOKS!!! I’m so tired…
Good lord is it possible to insult his behaviour without going after his looks? You all sound like 12 year olds
Today we published our 2nd story in an investigation into the backgrounds of 230+ Venezuelan men Trump deported to El Salvador. We did a first ever case-by-case analysis and found half were in the middle of their immigration cases, including dozens seeking asylum. www.propublica.org/article/vene...

“In a new paper published earlier this year in the Journal of Marketing, we uncovered a surprising pattern: The more knowledge people have about AI and how it works, the less likely they are to embrace it.”
This is an embarrassing headline, shame on you Globe and Mail.
Oof. I’m tired so didn’t feel like reading, but got through it. Literally had a little wave of second hand embarrassment go through my body 😬
💔
Keep your cats indoors!! I’m constantly putting deterrents in my flower beds to stop them defecating, used to have to clean it out of my children’s sand box. They wreak havoc on my local bird populations!!!! Be responsible!
Alberta's government is looking to cover costs and reduce waste. But U of C health law professor Lorian Hardcastle says she expects hospitalizations to increase, and even a few prevented ICU stays could have paid for "a lot of vaccines." From @jack-farrell.bsky.social: tinyurl.com/2c3n8r39
But it’s not the first time. He was documenting and front and centre on one of the first big raid. Was surprised it didn’t get more traction at the time
In Canada I know of 12 opening in next few years. Makes me want to scream
This guy did a commercial asking Canadians to travel to California. Wants our money but unconcerned about the reason most of us won’t cross the border right now. Oblivious.
We in Canada ditched the penny years ago. Yes when I pay cash the business rounds down, or up. It isn’t really a big deal.
We changed tv providers sometime after 2020 election, CNN wasn’t included in package. Haven’t missed it one day.
I hope all the people outraged in the comments are masking in public, that is far more effective than just vaccinating.
This isn’t true why are you lying? The newer vaccines were approved and distributed, it’s up to your province to administer. Older formulations of vaccines were not purchased.

It’s an extra step but don’t forget your library has a subscription to the Globe you can access 📚📰🗞
This is super disrespectful to the topic at hand. If you cannot follow what is going on kindly go away!
Canada also has a massive relief package coming for small and medium businesses harmed by the US tariffs.
Also she released a video on socials hinting that the release of 2 remaining TV albums *might* be announced at the AMAs on the 23rd and fans are freaking out. The amount of money she is going to make with their re-release will be crazy lol
Does he mean the thousands of Walmart employees that they refuse to provide medical insurance to? The US system seems to be that employed people should get insurance through work? So why are huge corporations not held accountable if they don’t provide it?
I wish I had hope of this but I’ve lived in a rural AB riding since 2008, they don’t even know who their MP is, just vote blindly conservative 🙄
He isn’t employed by the government anymore, so isn’t this WELFARE????
Never mind the fact that he chose an Alberta riding clearly showing her separation talk is all for show to shore up base. If she was serious he would never ‘take’ a riding here 🙄
This is so wrong!!! Hair and makeup are way too refined.
He better be paying rent!!!! Disgusting 😡
Why don’t I see any reporters explaining the cost to taxpayers to retrofit this jet to security standards for Air Force one? They will pay and Trump will own it.
I have to say as an Albertan lately my empathy has been triggered. We are led by an out of control nut job and there is little I can do about her.
Why is the expansion of the dental program announcement only on Twitter??? Why am I learning by screengrab on Bluesky from Twitter? Very disappointing and frustrating
It was so popular the opposition leader had to concede he would keep the dental program for elderly but not expand. This announcement is the expansion so that I’m a few months all ages are eligible to apply.
The irony is that if it hadn’t been for trump the conservative guy was headed to a win with “I’m going to cancel that program”. Trudeau and NDP worked hard to have it partially implemented before he resigned. We barely made it through this election 😮💨
She also tried to block the dental program here and has clawed back prov coverage for disabled people so none in AB will get to keep the $200 federal top up. Looking for my pitchfork
I’m in Alberta this will never happen. It’s a huge distraction. She has all her current scandals and this week quietly told all municipalities they must jack up provincial portion they collect on behalf of gov. Bills come out soon, maybe this finally wakes more of them up. It’s exhausting here.
Same. I just keep reminding myself there is no chance of conservative majority. So not much happens and we get another election sooner than 4 years?? But ugh it’s going to be a long day. Only time I’ve been glad election is called before our polls even close lol (I’m in AB)
🙄
Also I second his idea to “get out” off you go sir.
Who are the people he is with? Myself as an Albertan am going to start paying more attention to these guys. Chose to ignore but I can’t anymore
2/ menopause, Pilates but only the Pilates I’m interested in. It’s so intuitive, I’ve never seen things I dont like-it’s crazy. I hope Bluesky can become this.
So I’ve been on TikTok a few years, I’m trying to like your’s so much. But years of tweaking my algorithm makes skylight so jarring. I might sign out and start new account separate from Bluesky. Bluesky is nothing like TikTok for vibes. It is so serious. Tik tok is dog training, political humour,1/
I’ve been hoping my US holdings will come back enough to break even and sell but I think I’m pulling out Monday. It’s only going to decline, I don’t see it coming back unless the people stand up Saturday and stay. Protest and then home for supper is not going to be effective I fear.
This isn’t true. Careful where you get your facts and who told you that. Canada is already at capacity for what we sell to China. Eventually we are pulling away but it’s very complicated infrastructure. The Canadian oil company my husband works for owns American refineries. It’s so interconnected
We are watching this closely in Canada. It’s unfortunate because a lot of blue states are being negatively impacted by Canadians not travelling down this spring/summer.
We have been waiting for our Costco to open for 20 years. On again/off again but was finally due to start build this month. Now with the ‘economic uncertainty’ they may pause it 😭😭😭😭😭😭 …closest one right now is 2 1/2 hours away. Trump is going to screw me out of my Costco 🤬
Forgive me if I’m wrong, but won’t you need to continue the protest until you get action? If everyone goes home tonight won’t this be easy for Trump to ignore?
The world is watching and learning. We aren’t safe in your country. Nothing could compel me to travel to the USA.
Watching from Canada, I will put no more investment money into the USA. The world can see what’s happening but the American people seem like they cannot. The only good thing to come out of this is revealing our conservative party as Trump Lite and we will have a leader that helps fight the US.
What I don’t understand is how this affects international users. I have tik tok because I feel better about china than mark Zuckerberg. I want nothing to do with oracle or any US company that buys it
It’s already launched, look got Skylight Social in App Store. Can sign in with this account. It’s not great yet but I’ve been curating my fyp for years on tiktok so will take time as creators move over
Good for these kids! The adults in America are clearly not going to 🤬
Canada had to ban pork imports from the US recently. It had failed 3 tests in 6 months so triggered automatic freeze. That was a month or more ago, it’s only gotten worse with all gov firings and closed departments
This in on/in the news. It was even on Canadian national news outlets
I don’t understand the intricacies of American government but what did this accomplish? Is it the start of something?
I really hope so too
Please look into your local library if you are unable to read news or magazine articles. The publisher benefits (by being paid for the subscription) and so does the library (use of its resources).
The government ceding affordable housing to the private sector is how we got in this mess. The federal government needs to step back in and take responsibility! This is why I read G&M at my library, will not subscribe
And gave this speech to US military personnel because no one in Greenland would have him. You all are embarrassing 🤦🏻♀️
What are you actually DOING?? My god this is frustrating to watch from Canada. You post before this is a colleague posting a funny meme??? Pull your heads out of your a$$e$ and get to work for goodness sake!
It’s actually gotten much worse since that. When it was down for Americans it was a joy for the rest of us(sorry). But since trump grovelling the bots are out of control. Anything with even slight Canadian news/election vibe is inundated with bot replies

Omg Sewell, I think is his name, is doing TikTok’s where he says things like ‘well that was a terrible fucking day’ looking sad into camera like it’s a thirst trap. I almost threw my phone. My god!!! You all need to primary these dickheads
Are you out of your mind? From Canada it looks to me like senior Democrats are actively helping trump. Shame on all of you
I don’t know if you have lived there long enough to grasp the magnitude of Québecois patriotically standing as Canadians first. With all the horrible things going on it’s been amazing to see Canadians pull together during this time.
The was released under Biden. Nothing newsworthy! You are a joke newspaper good lord
Meanwhile in Canada our fake border monitoring for trump helicopter spotted a family of 5 crossing into Canada. We treated them for hypothermia and they are safe. USA is barbaric
I’m 50, my kids are grown. But I’ve always been astounded that Americans have to pay so much in medical bills simply to have a baby. Cannot wrap my head around it, and it’s mentioned so casually by US citizens.
Or when you recently killed a US citizen by firing squad. You don’t see each other as humans. I wanT no part of it and I will FIGHT
Stand up American citizens! 3.5% in peaceful protests. Why are so many of you frozen waiting for it to get worse?
Yes Americans! Do you know that Canadians are getting death threats on tok tok from Americans? Your late night hosts joke about annexation. 3.5% of pop in peaceful protests has been shown to take down a government! What are you waiting for?
Then do something about it.
Respectfully, then do something. “It’s not all of us” is frankly tired. I’ll be fighting if it comes to it, what is your plan to stand up to your government?
We can’t!! First of all we didn’t cancel anything so our research teams are busy working. We are tiny! Where would we come up with money to ‘steal researchers’? It’s like Americans are living in a fantasy world. Please wake up for all our’s sake
