I know this is controversial in our modern times, but I think even people with pre-existing health conditions should not shit themselves to death because they ate a bagged salad.

That Trump was willing to imprison an American Olympic Athlete over a disgusting lie should scare the hell out of ALL Americans.
"Every dollar spent here helps to counter Mr. Trump’s tariffs." Not only that, but if Canadians start exploring their own country, they may find they love it so much that they no longer feel the need to travel to the USA. And we’d get to know each other. www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/edit...

More than 160 years ago, the Charlottetown Conference began the work of building this country. Today, I’m meeting with the Premiers on P.E.I. to carry that work forward with the same ambition — to build a stronger, more united Canada for all.

Radio Canada International@rci.bsky.social · 2w agoPM Carney says he's spoken to Trump after his new tariffs announcement. The latest tariffs are being imposed in response to what was described as Canada's retaliation against U.S. trade policy and its discrimination against U.S. motor vehicles, dairy and alcohol. ici.radio-canada.ca/rci/en/news/...

The one product Canadians do not need is USA alcohol. Tariff the crap out of it. I'd rather drink something from anywhere else in the world than anything brewed/distilled/bottled in the USA. Shut it all down.

45 years ago the Premiers successfully bullied PET into getting natural resources entrenched as exclusively provincial jurisdiction, "forests" absolutely understood as natural resources in this context. (S. 92A) The "national strategy" is for the Premiers to do their jobs!
Toronto Star@thestar.com · 2w agoCanada’s premiers and Prime Minister Mark Carney are set to discuss a national strategy for dealing with the forest fires ravaging the country. As first ministers prepare to descend upon Charlottetown this week, Premier Doug Ford said firefighting would be at the top of the agenda.
Le pays qui veut qu'on contrôle nos feux de forêts est même pas capable de laver sa salade comme du monde.
The fact that an obviously coordinated bullshit freakout about the fires happened the very week Sooke BC was mourning a firefighter who died helping colorado is everything you need to know about america right now. Carney should be venting fucking spleen.
Look, 158 Canadian soldiers died fighting for the US in Afghanistan and as far as Trump is concered that just makes us suckers and losers. You think letting their piss beer back on shelves in ontario is going to make him happy?

The biggest affront that Canada has committed to the US is declining to be annexed. The mere fact of Canadian independence is what annoys Trumpists. No concessions short of complete vassalage will satisfy them. So we might as well just get on with our lives.
These articles were published just hours apart. It’s been pretty obvious for sometime that US Ambassador Pete Hoekstra has little to no influence or insight into what’s happening in Trump’s White House.
The FDA said on Monday that strong evidence still tied Taylor Farms to the continuing cyclospora outbreak, despite the agency’s retraction on Sunday of what it had said was a positive test of a lettuce sample for the parasite.
