Ok crankypants.
Operation III Wind 1988 Savings and Loans 1980 Airbus affair late 80s Westland affair 80s Recruit scandal 1988 Lockheed scandal 1980s Do you need more for other generations?
Agreed and it happened well before that as far back as the Roman Empire.
They always have been, this is not new, please don't pretend it is.
I'll take him over Trump.
I love it.
Yesterday we went grocery shopping and although the US berries were cheaper, we bought all Canadian grown at a higher price. We did get our money’s worth as the Canadian berries were beautiful. Sorry not sorry. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

I hope he is reading how many people are hoping he’s gone for good
The Ontario facility, which bottles Crown Royal products, closes in Feb in a move to improve its North American supply chain. Bottling for the U.S. market moves stateside. When Canada is being attacked, you don’t move your plant to the US and leave a whole Canadian town unemployed. #cdnpoli
Winning!
Hey Mark- Told one of my chiropractic patients about Cost Plus Drugs last week and your mission after he complained a skin cancer medicine was going to cost him $1700- He found it on your website for under $20- for real. Best project ever. @costplusdrugs.com
I agree, it's become the same as X. Sad but I guess us humans can't help ourselves.
You need to stop letting him live rent free in your head.
Welll they do cost more to replace and randomly burn to the ground unlike gas vehicles.
Firing RFK Jr would unburden a lot of overworked mitochondria in this country
Is it not OK to know both? I also know that Yimi Garcia likely won't return to the Blue Jays bullpen and the forecast for the weekend is vey hot.
100%
On this I disagree, we need some fun happy news, so tired of Trump and his MAGA idiots taking all the headlines.
I walked down to the very good pizza place tonight. And walked home and had four slices. And what shocks me most of all, I did it all by myself without the National Guard to even help me.
Yikes.
The game is to engage and see what I can learn. Only way to learn is to put yourself out there. The goals are to figure out how to change healthcare, change politics and change the current administration by winning the next elections. I approach these goals as an entrepreneur.
I have a personal policy about watching what people post. If it says "Watch to the end" or "Wait for it" I immediately close it and move on. I'll decide which ones to watch and for how long.
Kid Rock: I will no longer sell my music in California. Scott Baio: I will no longer act in California. Governor Newsom: My policies are working.
Could I buy just a flip?
Hypothetically. If complimenting trump meant that there would definitely be 2026 elections and the Dems would sweep Congress in a landslide , would you compliment Trump ? Or, Is is that thought so abhorrent, you couldn’t bring yourself to do it. Even at the expense of staying the minority?
I think it's a mix of. Unaware Aware and disagree with your fear Aware and care but don't know what to do about it.
Raskin: "This episode is disturbing and it seems to confirm Bolton's own prediction that if Donald Trump got back into office, his administration would be consumed with vengeance and retribution against his perceived political enemies."
That was one of the most batshit press conferences of Trump's public life. He brandished a photo of Putin and promised to deploy the US military to occupy Chicago, New York, and San Francisco. A sane country would be moving toward impeachment and removal right now.
The cost to protect children is worth some growing pains.
I deeply resent having to defend John Bolton but “the president sends his goons on a fishing expedition to raid anyone who criticizes him” is in fact very alarming
I think the World Cup should seriously reconsider having their event in the USA.
Donald Trump says he is going to deploy the National Guard to Chicago. This is what weak men do to pretend they’re strong. Stay safe, stand with your community, and most importantly, know your rights:
You do not have to like John Bolton to see this for what it is.
He is still hoping to take over Canada and steal our power.
It's sad that a small portion of what he is doing should have been done long ago, it gives some validity to the thug.
I know people have mixed feelings, but saying ‘good riddance’ about someone who just passed can come across as really disrespectful to those who cared about them.
Where has it ever been in their job description to respect the President?
Dear Smithsonian… safeguard the past. Move your archives to Canada before destruction claims them.
Sorry to get so political, but slavery was extremely bad.
No one ever said that.
Americans are paying over 20% more for coffee under Trump than under Biden. When Trump brags about tariff collections, he's bragging about his tax on your cup.
Trump surrogate attacking government statistics by failing to add correctly is almost too perfect (16% + 30% ≠ “2 out of 3”)
Congrats
Elbows up!
Congrats, we celebrate 40 next year.
You need a leader and a plan. Hating Trump is not a plan, half the republicans hate Trump, so what.
Canada has mail-in voting. Just sayin.
They need a leader and a vision We hate Trump is not a plan that will win anything.
That's as dumb as blaming a road when someone speeds and crashes. Fix the drivers, the vehicles are not the problem.
He should have demanded to meet in Alaska.
A message for the most “transparent Administration” in history: Release the Epstein files.
The majority are not with you unfortunately. The plane will crash and many will wonder what the passengers could have done to save it.
It feels like the US is governed by Fox News. It’s very stupid and very dangerous.
Awesome!
The “great” mediator rolls out the red carpet and provides the spectacle of a fly over in Alaska to impress a criminal authoritarian dictator which resulted in FAILURE. No peace, no deals. Putin wins again as TACO leaves empty handed and an embarrassment once again.
What's the other 50%?
Not meaning to argue as I have no opinion but what do you mean Cooks was framed? He was on the roof and did shoot something, right?
I'm confused by your wording. Do you say he was shot OR It was staged to look like a shooting?
Carney and Zelenskyy speak ahead of Trump-Putin summit in Alaska. #cdnpoli 'Decisions on the future of Ukraine must be made by Ukrainians,' PMO says. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...
US army rolling the red carpet to murderer’s plane. I will never forget this image.
Alaska stands with Ukraine!
Wow she has some body! Two words.
I am and also love that I'm renting space for free in your head for so long.
The best would be to just stop giving a Nobel Peace Prize for 4 years.
What if books aren't my jam, is that ok too?
True, but at least I can process more than one thought at a time.
Happily greeting a war criminal on a red carpet. What an embarrassing moment for the United States.
The tallest tree bows the most when the wind grows strong. Is that wise enough?
AI is fun and sometimes useful.
“Some of the *retaliatory* tariffs are a huge irritant to the U.S.” He’s literally saying the U.S. is irritated by Canada punching back and protecting itself from the instigating American punches. What has Canada done to deserve such a piece of crap, gaslighting U.S. ambassador? #cdnpoli
I love your sense of humor, I bet you're fun at parties.
To all the people that replied with different thoughts, wouldn't it have sucked if I make my comment and then turned off comments???? Now I know that not everyone agrees, and that's helpful and useful.
Oh come on, there have been worse. Maybe you dislike, but WORST?
Ok
Thanks, I'll take that as a compliment. I actually know how to work and earn my money and understand that increases just get passed on down to the consumers.
To the union. We finally have a booming tourism season, please stop being so greedy and accept what's being offered for the good of the country.
Democrats wouldn't have to worry about Trump if they had a leader and a plan. Hating Trump is not a plan. Complaining isn't a plan. Get your shit together or we are all doomed.
Please don't give Trump an out by blaming AI for the abysmal job market.
Both are wrong, I refuse to give a pass to anyone that disrespects police trying to do their job.
Great conversation on The Prof G Pod with @richardreeves.bsky.social and @jonathanhaidt.bsky.social about the crisis of men and boys. youtu.be/a0vXyOY5S6w?...
Demand your republican leaders stand up against Trump now, before it's too late.
I have the easy solution. Republicans in the house grow a set and either vote against the lunacy or switch sides until Trump is gone.
100%.
If you are upset about DC‘s crime rate while voting for a felon, you are a special kind of stupid.
It's a great question, watching from up north it baffles us all.
He spends $200 MILLION of your💰on a ballroom and his family doesn’t deny making billions off his presidency. As you cheer for him caging brown ice cream men & kids, he invades DC to cover a child sex trafficking ring and trashes the constitution to cling to power. He laughs.
Seeems like a good reason to make a simple gesture. Trump doesn't do it because he can't figure out how to make it about him.
Thank you for keeping us safe
