Former Finnish PM Sanna Marin put it bluntly: “To end the conflict, Russia must leave Ukrainian territory.”

Just one point. Nothing more to discuss.

Together with @eucopresident.consilium.europa.eu, we have spoken to President Zelenskyy.

From day one, Europe has stood with Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression.

We have been working for a just and sustainable peace with Ukraine and for Ukraine together with our friends and partners.

I lurk on antivax discussion groups. Every day, I see incredulity that 81% of the US & CDN population have received at least one COVID shot. They can't believe it's that high because "most people I know never got it."

They can't distinguish between anecdote and data. This is the problem.

Christmas is coming, there's measles on the way
Please check you've got your shots, don't delay
If you haven't had the measles or any healthy shot
Call your local pharma, you really ought!

[One shot of MMR is free for people in BC who don't know if they've had it or the measles. I got mine in Oct]

The UCP has abandoned conservatism. Not just Lougheed's brand. Klein's brand, too.

The party lost its grip years ago.

It's time for conservatives in this province to speak up about it.

For years it was difficult to conceive of a more toxic presence on the Canadian political scene than petulant piffleswipe

But now comes Jumpin’ Jack Jamil Jivani, best friends at Yale Law School with JD Vance, would be piffleswipe successor.

So basically, the takeaway is that a country can invade its neighbour, break international law, and still end up with concessions and a seat back at the big table? How is this a peace deal and not a shakedown?

This is the Canadian Armed Forces.
We/they care about what is really important.
And they are hiring.
They also all got pay raises.
Not happy or being discriminated against in your current job or own Forces?
Maybe have a look.

Trolls who’ve had COVID multiple times are now giving health advice. 🤦‍♂️

Every COVID infection harms the immune system and makes you more vulnerable to other illnesses. Hundreds of thousands of studies show this. Taking no precautions in an ongoing pandemic is basically playing Russian roulette.
