Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is a union busting far right authoritarian. She legislated the teachers back to work using the notwithstanding clause, an emergency act not meant to be used Willy Nilly to force people to do what you want. She’s a missy maple-tRump.

Canadians here at the ASEAN Summit want to build big things at home and around the world.

Canada has what the world wants. We will seize this moment together, bet big on ourselves, and build bigger than ever before.

Wait until the banks and loan companies come calling. Then come the requisite legal notices followed by the sheriff to seize their properties. I really hope they realize tRump did all this and maybe they shouldn’t vote for him or his GOP minions next time they vote.

Far overdue for sure. But the problem I see is a joint venture between Canada and the US. The inmates are running the asylum south of the 49th parallel.

If only the far right remains in the military we are truly doomed. Imagine how to overcome that situation.

My wishes as well. Hope PP wins the review and stays put. No one in Canada will elect him as PM. Carney is our best bet for the next 8 years until the US figures their way out of autocracy.

Oops! 🇨🇦 bad. But how many Americans will see this commercial over the weekend? Hopefully enough. Anyone watching the World Series anyways! You are welcome USA DEMOCRATS!
Let’s get the message out there…tariffs bad. Free trade good! 👍

Canada 🇨🇦 is going to figure this out. We will keep expanding our trade outside of the USA.If your imperious king tRump isn’t soon removed from office, the damage to your country will make millions more suffer unnecessarily.BTW…we won’t be back for another go when we’ve gone elsewhere. Canada strong!

A minimum tax rate of 25% is more than fair. That would provide free healthcare to everyone

Part of the problem is he isn’t afraid. He’s so close to invoking the insurrection act or declaration law that I’m afraid for my American friends. He’s not finished yet. And not enough people have personally suffered yet. Give it another 9 months. It will come to a boil soon enough

Rickja.bsky.social🇨🇦🏳️‍🌈friendly🇺🇸👍🚫DM’s💙 @rickja.bsky.social · 6d

Piggies at the trough. They all need to be investigated after this is over for fraud. They are all making HUGE profits from just letting him graft on and on.

Politicians should never have to worry about their safety. Full stop. But hear this. Democrats need to get their act together in quick order, because this is no longer about them. This is about American democracy and the people THEY SERVE. NOT THE CORPORATE DOLLARS. Figure it out NOW.

I question how or what their definition of “high achieving” is? Meaning they finished high school and can’t find a job that will elevate them to higher status? Or finishing university and having no decent job? News flash. That’s becoming the “norm” folks. Unless you go into the trades, it’s hard

Rickja.bsky.social🇨🇦🏳️‍🌈friendly🇺🇸👍🚫DM’s💙 @rickja.bsky.social · 8d

They knew fully well what they were doing. Supporting the US dictatorship. This was nothing. They’re lucky they didn’t get turned around. Kindof wish they were. By going to the US we are supporting their economy. Go anywhere else.
