I saw on someone's profile pic, can't remember where... but it said something like,
"I came with nothing, and I still have most of it left."
It really made me smile, so thanks to the person who wrote it!

So... Drump is also planning an 'Arc de Triomphe' monument by the Lincoln Monument??? WTF??
Is this his 'let them eat cake' moment?
Will Americans EVER wake up?

Drump is planning a Washington monument to himself??

Absolutely! Finding a way to grow vegetables year round should get easier with solar heated greenhouses so we don't have to rely on American lettuce. I won't buy American produce anymore. I'd rather do without or buy frozen Canadian produce.

Or from the U.K. and the E.U. They're still sensible nations with proper controls on food production! I won't buy any produce or products from the U.S. The US FDA has been gutted.

To be honest, I don't think anyone knows how best to deal with Drump... but PMMC is being respected around the world for his tact & diplomacy.
Some incels want a 'strong man' to just go in and smash everything... and that's what they're getting with drump. I fear for the outcome. Carney is good.

Oh... tell me about it! It's the rise of the incel 'small potatoes'. They think they finally have their moment in POWER by beating everyone else down, especially women & people of colour.
It's just so anti-democracy and I'll always fight for facts and fairness. It's not easy these days. 😢

Pam Bondi has basically said anyone visiting the US is subject to arrest and incarceration at any point, if law officials deem the individual a “threat”.

Bang goes the rest of the international tourism trade.

I agreed! Was trying to emphasize your point.
I blocked that 'burnt potato' guy... whatever his name was.

The PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENTS govern rental rates... not the federal government.

The rent situation in Ontario is truly scary. Rents have been going up, and up, and up under Ontario's CONSERVATIVE government. Ford's been making back room deals with developers, just like Drump in the U.S.

BREAKING: Journalists exited the Pentagon after refusing to agree to the Trump administration's new restrictions on access.

Journalists turn in access badges, exit Pentagon rather than agree to new reporting rules

Journalists at the Pentagon turned in access badges and cleaned out their workspaces on Wednesday, the price for refusing to agree to new restrictions on their jobs being removal from being at the seat of U.S. military power.

After Trump's gong show at the UN it was good to see
PM Carney invoking Leonard Cohen.
"In every moment where there's a crack, where there's a rupture, there is possibility — and it's our responsibility, it's our opportunity as Canada in this moment to find it."

Wow. Poor Megyn. Maybe her 'garbage bag' costume from last year should become her permanent attire. Seems fitting.

American Pete Hoekstra does not get the fact that Canadians don’t like fascism, racism or anything America stands for right now. He needs an education. Canada is antifa. Elbows up is just the start. You don’t like it? The door is directly to the south.

This is a massive, history making abuse of your power. It will define your legacy and one day you will come to regret punishing free speech and trying to destroy democracy.

KEY to the story about ABC suspending Kimmel's show: Nexstar and Sinclair, two big owners of ABC-affiliated stations, both need FCC approval for pending deals. With a lot of $$ on the line, both have reason to curry favor with the Trump admin. Both decided to yank Kimmel's show.
