Will probably add/change this tomorrow since I never know what to put here

- That’s a tough choice because I can honestly say at this point that I would do just about anything to make that man just shut the f up ….. but now that you’ve mentioned jettisoning things, maybe strapping PP to a ticket is the way to go 🤔
- Rocket, not ticket Why does autocorrect hate me so?🙄
- My question to Canadians who don’t thin Carney made enough Cabinet changes: Do you honestly want an entirely new cabinet with absolutely no experience or history trying to get things done while Trump and Poilievre are attacking everything they attempt to do

- I wish she were that stupid and not just that manipulative
- 1 in 6? So roughly the same number of people who suffer bankruptcies as a result of medical bills? What a wonderful place the US is.
- I live in Canada and have travelled all over the world and only had food poisoning 3 times. ……. twice in the US
- Paul: They started out at 145% got down to 80% now 30%. It is 30% more than we have on currently. It will be a 30% rise in goods coming from China, and somebody will pay that, it will be the consumer.

- You know we’re living in the dumbest timeline when we are agreeing with Rand Paul because something is just so obviously wrong that even Rand Paul can’t dispute it

- They know exactly how tariffs work. They’re counting on their supporters only listening to them instead of educating themselves about out how tariffs really work
- ICE should have a new name, reflecting agents' refusal to identify themselves or wear uniforms & masking their faces when kidna—I mean, making arrests. I'd suggest Secret State Police if only it had a shortened version that rolled off the tongue, to replace the mellifluous "ICE" acronym. If only.
- It’s not a shorter name but Gestapo worked for one fascist Nazi regime. I don’t see a need for a new name for the same department in a different country
- Every single night.
- Is the dream that Trump is handcuffed or that the police are willing to do their jobs and put handcuffs on their fürher

- It’s hitting exactly WHAT different people fear though I have spent 14 years advocating for changes and have discovered everyone wants a “magic bullet” solution (1 thing) The problem is that the solution is more like puzzle pieces that ALL need to be put in place to complete the picture
- [Not loaded yet]
- I agree with you I just think when we’re talking about alcohol related injuries/deaths, we need to include everything because it seems Canadians need to be hit with a proverbial 2x4 to get them to do anything that requires changes in behaviour If the info is in bits and pieces it’s less of an impact

- My child was one of those “alcohol related deaths” when we were hit by a drunk driver. She had just turned 11 years old a couple months earlier Impaired Drivers cost Canadians BILLIONS each year in healthcare, lost wages, injuries, and deaths ….. and still we are apathetic
- [Not loaded yet]
- No need to apologize for any profanity around drunk drivers. There’s a lot of profanity in our house for the asshat who felt his Right to drive drunk was more important than my 11 year old’s Right to breathe Even worse were the Crown Attorneys who pleaded him down to a fine for killing her

- Congratulations on your sobriety. And yes, Doug made alcohol more available (as well as gambling) but never thought to put any guardrails in place for the unexpected (and expected) consequences of those actions Now, we all get to pay for it Some with their lives
- Ontario’s insurance is so high because we have one of the highest drunk driver involved catastrophic crash rates in the world ALL of us are paying for those much needed and deserved settlements that have to go out to cover victims’ lifelong medical expenses
- Contact your MPs and MPPs to go after drunk drivers to lower the rates (drunk driving rates have risen steadily since 2006 in Canada) As long as insurance companies are paying out high settlements (not high enough for victims), rates will remain high
- 15 years ago Iw as in a catastrophic crash (hit by a drunk driver). Since then people’s coverage has dropped from $2 million standard to $1/2 million standard while costs have gone up Check your policies closely Do you realize how fast you burn through $500,000 in medical expenses in Canada?
- I had $70,000 in expenses in my first 3 months home $200,000+ by then end of my first year I have a lifetime of expenses NOT covered by the government and I have a long list of “pre-existing conditions NOT covered by private insurance Check your policies and pay for the extra coverage
- BREAKING: Pope Leo is descended from Creole people of color—and MAGA’s having a full-blown meltdown, calling him “woke.” Good. Let ’em melt.
- [Not loaded yet]
- If I’m not mistaken about the meaning of “woke”, wouldn’t it make Jesus the original “woke” man and his teachings all about “being woke” as the path to God?
- 🏆🥇
- Cordell Hull, U.S. secretary of state during Hitler’s reign of terror, sent fleeing Jews back to Germany where many of them ended up murdered by Nazis Rubio is doing Hull proud.

- They DID try to enter Canada and we have just as much blood on our hands for that decision as the US We’ve tried to never make that decision again and try to take in as many refugees per capita as possible

- His understanding of India comes from watching The Jungle Book movie
- What a surprise that the “full and comprehensive” free trade agreement Trump is announcing with much fanfare this morning is not exactly full and comprehensive.
- [Not loaded yet]
- They know exactly what he’s doing and some people are making a lot of money off of it
- We are living in the dumbest timeline
- JFC He’s casting The Donald J. Trump Presidency Show
- A win for democracy www.nytimes.com/2025/05/07/u...
- Also a lesson for Democrats. Keep fighting if you know you won.
- It’s not the wildest but that assassination was a set up and a hoax to drum up support.
- My mom is one of the most pragmatic people you could meet and even she believes it was fake She’s an 84yo retired nurse and said “No 70+yo person would heal that quickly or that well from any sort of cut to their ear much less a bullet. Their ear would be black and blue for weeks and have a scar”

- Last week, I lost my dad. He was a natural family historian and story teller (must be the Irish in him) and I still have a million questions I wish I could ask him …. and I’m not sure I saw any of them in the list
- Andrew “Howdy Doody” Scheer is the Interim Leader of the Opposition—another loser scraped from the bottom of the barrel—until Pierre Poilievre gets elected by the rednecks of rural Alberta.
- The good people of Battle River-Crowfoot may vote for a local Independent candidate rather than a Laurentian Elite living in a mansion with staff paid by taxpayers especially when they realize CPC supports O&G being able to drill or run a pipeline without landowners being consulted. #cdnpoli #abpoli
- Fingers crossed 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
- "Canada will have a partnership on our terms, not on the US's terms - Prime Minister Mark Carney 🇨🇦 #cdnpoli

- Carney/Harris/Sheinbaum would have been unstoppable A PhD in Economics, an Economics degree and a law degree, and a PhD in Energy Engineering
- I am WORN out from old men telling women and girls what they can and cannot have -- from abortions to dolls. And that's aside from the absolute creepiness of old men talking about dolls.
- When Trump said “9,10 and 15 year old girls won’t be able to have as many dolls” my husband said “The Pedophile in Chief keeps announcing his age preferences for little girls” because Trump referred to them as “young women”
- Our tax dollars are paying someone to paint him this sick cat poop color.
- Did I hear correctly? Did Trump praise the Russian NHL hockey player Alexander Ovechkin calling him a great Canadian in front of The Canadian Prime Minister?
- Yep Dementia is a horrible disease
- We were having a discussion in our house about what USians will be crossing the borders into Canada and Mexico to buy in about 6 weeks when they realize they can’t find it on their shelves anymore? We came up with: Pharmaceuticals Phones Electronics Clothing Lumber (heading into hurricane season)
- Food, probably.
- We were trying to figure out WHAT food though. They can’t take fresh food, so that rules out a lot. I’m not sure what processed foods they don’t make in the US. Maybe things like Olives, flour(?), powdered milk, …
- Heard something new today: “Fight, flight or freeze.” (New to me, at least) Made me think. Then I heard the report on the junior hockey sexual assault trial. Made me think even more.
- I don’t think people realize just how many people freeze when faced with life or death events There’s a reason people who work in life or death professions will tell you to “be specific” in your instructions in a crisis Whether it’s a fire, a shooting, a cancer diagnosis, or a rape…. people FREEZE

View full threadI know he liked her a lot and it must have been very hard for him to sit there and listen to this a****** put her down. Trump hates her because she stood up to him.🇨🇦
- He hates strong, intelligent women who don’t cower down to him
- Is he not like a Godfather of one of her kids or something?
- Yep. He’s the godfather to her son and one of his oldest friends Trump is such an idiot
- What was going through Carney’s mind as Trump talked about us becoming 51st state today? “I’ve been careful always to distinguish between wish and reality,” Carney said. “I was clear…that this is never going to happen. Canada is not for sale. It never will be for sale.”

- Technically, Canada was still under British rule but we still take credit for it as Canadians
- Trumpy didn’t give him a chance tbh - you could tell how awkward Trump felt in comparison, he really did not want Carney to speak in front of the cameras and show him up, he seemed to ramble even more than normal.
- Carney is the godfather of Chrystia Freeland’s son Trump just openly insulted one of Mark Carney’s oldest friends and had NO idea what he did
- “We supply you with free military because we’d defend you if anything happened” My question to all USians: Name ALL the countries that have threatened to or tried to invade Canada I’ll give you a couple clues …. It’s only one country and we burned it’s f-ing White House down the last time they tried
- WHY would you ever think that we rely on the US to defend us? You put a target on our back by geography Canada gets along with damn near everyone because we work at it YOU are the only country we fear because YOU are our only real threat The world will step in to defend Canada FROM the US
- •••••BREAKING••••• Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney stated an unassailable fact to Trump: “Canada won’t be for sale — EVER!”
- Can you imagine if the US had voted in a woman with an Economics degree and a Law degree next door to a woman with a PhD in Energy Economics and next door to a man with a PhD in Economics? North America would have been unstoppable Instead the US voted in a rapist who shits his pants
- He knows how to be the cool head in the room 😉
- We all had a laugh when Trump started criticizing Freeland and then asked if Carney knew her. I so wish he would have answered that one 😉
- Tbh...he's never been intelligent.
- If the test that was found is real, Donnie tested at an IQ of 73 Judging by his vocabulary, it wouldn’t surprise me
- ...but you could tell by the change in Carney's face that he really understood just how unhinged Trump really is
- The little eyebrow twitch and head tilt at some of dementia Don’s comments and the chewing on the inside of his mouth and lips to stop himself from stopping Trump’s deranged verbal meanderings If there had been a drinking game, I would have been drunk but I doubt any on Trump’s team caught those
- Prime Minister Carney tells Trump that Canada is not for sale www.npr.org/2025/05/06/n...
- Anyone who watched that meeting could see that Trump has totally lost the plot. My MIL has Alzheimer’s and she’s more cognizant than Trump Carney handled it masterfully by letting Trump take all the rope needed to hang himself I’m sure FOXNews will try to spin it but they’ll look crazy as well
- Trump: "A young lady -- 10 year old girl, 9 year old girl, 15 year old girl -- doesn't need 37 dolls. She could be very happy with 2 or 3 or 4 or 5."
- Is he still discussing dolls or is he giving his age preferences for girls?
- Because of course he is.
- Apparently, it’s still possible to type out a reply on X or Truth Social when your head is firmly up Trump’s ass
- My perspective from the outside In order to be a democracy, a country needs 2 healthy parties (otherwise, it’s not a democracy anymore) Currently, the US doesn’t have any healthy parties (one is Authoritarian and one has abdicated it’s role) but at least the Dems have something left to build on
