www.cbc.ca/news/politic... So do you think Roman elites were annoyed when the occasional pundit from Gaul expressed an opinion on who should be the next emperor? I’m guessing “yes”. At least, now, the chances of being crucified for our opinions are quite low.

Alberta’s #UCP United Conservative Party is neither united nor conservative. Separatists always a fantasize that divorce will be smooth & easy—& they’ll get to keep the house & all the money. It is never true.

I Am proud of my fellow Canadians in Alberta—75% of whom voted for Canada. To the other 25%: You are welcome to your opinions, but you are not entitled to pull Canadians’ focus away from our 2nd-most-important question: Hpw. at long last —at long, long last!—do we become a sovereign nation?
Anne Applebaum@anneapplebaum.wsocial.eu · 3d agoDespite the Trump administration's best efforts, Alberta votes not to break up Canada
This is true. If you are an American citizen, electing r Pugh Femcrats to produce a veto-proof majority (with a few GOP defectors) is the only solution I can see that might actually help Ukraine. Although Hpw they will survive until that majority can be sworn in & vote is hard to see.

I’m convinced Trump is determined to do everything possible to have Putin win & Zelenskyy lose. The question, it seems to me is: How can we stop him? Even though I’m trying not to despair, I must say that, at this moment, I have no good answers to this question.
Inside Ukraine 🇺🇦@insideukraine.bsky.social · 4d agoZelensky says the US government ordered the speed restrictions affecting Starlink and Starshield, while SpaceX technically implemented the decision. According to the Ukrainian president, those restrictions have still not been lifted.

www.cnn.com/2026/09/18/p... I’m making a wild guess based on no information: This “deal” is less than Trump is declaring. It’s actually just a “if you want military bases on Greenland, we’ve been saying all along you’re welcome to go ahead” plus “same for mineral exploration”

Why can’t we just claim that Leif Erikson, when landed in NFLD claimed all of Canada for Greenland? That would make us part of Denmark, which automatically makes us part of the EU. Done deal! Sometimes the simplest ideas are the best.

www.wsj.com/world/europe... Good on PM Carney. It’s the bold, logical move. Canada has always been a bridge between the US & Europe. So long as Trump is busy burning 1 end of that bridge, it only makes sense to reinforce (& fireproof) the other end.
