California lost two county supervisors (Alameda and Ventura Counties), both women, and we didn't ban cars. One was hit in a crosswalk in downtown by a driver of a giant pickup who claimed that he didn't see her over his tall hood.

The Mayor of Como has banned bikes in the city centre for "public safety" after being hit by an e-bike. Now let's apply the same logic to cars - we'd have pedestrianised half of Europe by now.

Here is a list of Canadian owned Greenhouse/Farms Growers #Canada The produce from these companies are safe, they do not bring in imported produce--removed all growers that bring in produce from the US. Mucci Farms Kingsville, ON Haven Farms ON Rol-land Farms and Greenhouses Inc. ON /1 thread

Former All American Girls Professional Baseball League catcher Kay (Heim) McDaniel was born in Athabasca, Alta. on this date in 1917. She played two seasons in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League with the Kenosha Comets in 1944 and 1945. She passed away in 2015.

If Carney kills the Online News Act as a concession to Trump, it means eliminating the funding for one reporting position at the Halifax Examiner. Obviously, I would work to find replacement funding, but we're already stretched very thin.

We're still waiting for details about Canada's trade deal with Trump — specifically, what concessions America has extorted out of us. Sources tell me Carney may be sacrificing yet another pillar of Canada's Big Tech regulations. www.thestar.com/opinion/star...

Remember. Friends don't let friends drink American.

Hey Canadians, Help those of us standing against the fascists. Dont buy ANYTHING American, let alone our whiskey Thanks, this American

I'm at my limit with these guys. Half of the California wine-growers' lobby donated or endorsed Trump and his candidates (and @davidreevely.bsky.social went through and gathered all the receipts a few weeks ago). Don't go insisting you're allies being unfairly treated when you enabled this.

Today they’ve added Sourdough Bread and Gourmet Popcorn. I keep wondering what’s safe to ingest? 😮

More on America’s growing food crisis. The FDA has upgraded a recall of frozen blueberries to the highest risk level, indicating a reasonable chance of "serious adverse health consequences or death" from E. coli contamination. What happens when you gut federal government protections.

The actual problem for Canada isn't US tariffs, but that the US imposed the tariffs in the first place. Any deal to reduce or even eliminate the tariffs doesn't address the underlying problem of US domination. From November 2024.

Trump’s proposed tariffs against Canada and Mexico may be illegal, but that’s not the real problem

Amid Donald Trump’s latest tariff threat, Canada should be asking how a liberal-democratic nation survives next to a much more powerful country with no respect for the rule of law.

It's not the government, it's Canadians who don't want to buy US products. Too bad for California, but it's still part of US. A "From USA" label makes products stay on shelves. Get rid of the Orange Thing & his cronies: commerce will come back to normal. #Never51stState #DumpTariffs

I've never seen such an effort to censor a document as I have the Amnesty International report on gender critical groups because of JK Rowling. They removed the report from the Wayback Machine and now I got a DMCA strike on my Google Drive for having it. It was deleted and removed from my account.

By all means, let US booze back on the shelves. Doesn't mean Canadians will drink it.... (and evidence from Alberta suggests that we won't). www.ctvnews.ca/world/trumps...

PM Carney asks premiers to remove U.S. booze ban as officials try to finalize trade deal

Despite cautious optimism around a tentative agreement, provincial sources told CTV News after a briefing with Prime Minister Mark Carney and the premiers that a deal is not done yet.

ctvnews.ca

Please, to all my friends in Canada, regardless of what is on the shelves, check the label! Buy Canadian, European, Mexican, anywhere but American.

Go ahead and stock it, we’re still not gonna buy it.

Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston says Prime Minister Mark Carney has asked provinces to restock American alcohol on their shelves as Canada finalizes a trade deal with the U.S.

If Canada spent as much time and energy stopping its discrimination against First Nations children as it does trying to evade legal accountability - this case would have been over years ago and children would not have been needlessly harmed.

This btw, is also why AI companies are trying to colonise education at all levels: its not that they care about students. But devastating education, driving academic labor entirely. out of work, and producing students who cannot function without their product, now that is their goal.

Not buying the diarrhea lettuce; nor any other American produce.

John Muller@mrjohnmuller.bsky.social · 2d ago

Seems to me like a lot of the so-called concessions that Canada is making are totally offset by the grassroots consumer boycott. US booze back on the shelves? Market access for US farmers? Who gives a fuck. 75% of Canadians aren't buying, on principle. Canada is selling Trump some magic beans.
