Seriously? There’s enough disinformation coming from the PC side in this election. We have Russians and Trump followers destroying social media with lies and now you cancel Rachel Gilmores segment because the convoy folk are mad? We need free media, not spin doctors!

Not sure why anyone would consider visiting the United States when they subject random tourists to draconian actions like this

A young lady originally from Whitehorse is being detained in a detention center in Arizona. She was detained March 3rd, after her visa was denied.

Facebook post from her Mom is in the pics below. It's a disturbing sequence of events.

Do not travel to the US.
My daughter, Jasmine, a 35-year-old Canadian, attempted to enter the U.S. on March 3, 2025, with a consulting visa for a company in the States. Unfortunately, her visa was denied, and she was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at the San Ysidro border crossing, where she was held for three nights. From there, she was transferred to Otay Mesa Detention Centre in San Diego and held for another three nights. On Sunday, March 9, the online tracking system indicated that she had been released. We assumed this meant she was being deported and escorted to an airport. However, 24 hours later, there was no sign of her, no communication, and we were extremely worried. We eventually learned that about 30 people, including Jasmine, were forcibly removed from their cells at 3:00 am and transferred to the San Luis Detention Center in Arizona. They are housed together in a single concrete cell with no natural light, fluorescent lights that are never turned off, no mats, no blankets, and limited bathroom facilities. Communication with her has been extremely sporadic, and it is only thanks to one of her close friends with contacts in the U.S. that we have been able to receive updates. Yesterday, Austin Grabish, a reporter from ABC 10News was able to interview Jasmine. He also interviewed her friend who has been working tirelessly from Vancouver to bring Jasmine home. The story will air tomorrow, and from there, we hope other broadcasters will pick it up. What we have learned of the ICE system and its treatment of detainees is inhumane and deeply concerning. Being detained is one thing, but there’s NO excuse for the way people are treated while in custody or for the delays in deportation. They are not criminals, and they just want to go home. We are doing everything we can to bring Jasmine home. We are in touch with the Canadian Consulate in San Diego, but there is little they can do. A lawyer is also working on her release, but progress is slow. I am humbly asking for your support by sharing this story widely through your networks. Jasmine is an adventurous and hard-working young woman and we desperately want her home. Thank you! Picture of Jasmin is below text.

COLLINS: “AP says you banned them because they won’t call it ‘Gulf of America’ — does this mean Trump will retaliate against reporters who don’t use language you want them to, and how does this align with your first amendment commitment?”

Beyond parody. Also, chilling.

Remember when Pierre Poilievre's friend, Kat Kanada (Katrina Panova) was found to be a Russian asset?

Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Trudeau: I think Canadians are a little perplexed as to why our closest friends and neighbors are choosing to target us.

I don’t think there are a lot of Americans who wake up in the morning saying, "Oh, damn Canada. Oh, we should really go after Canada."

Feb 1, 2025 And so it begins, a trade war started by Donald Trump against Canada, we will retaliate which will hurt Americans as this economic attack continues from today henceforth. #BoycottUSA everything from travel, shopping, buying US made goods/services sold in Canada.

May we all be as proud, well spoken, well mannered, and patriotic. May Canadians all be a little bit more "Canadian", eh? We need it. Marc Carney has since put his hat in the ring.

“If China wants to build the alliances that it will need to acquire the status of a global hegemon,” Bloomberg’s David Fickling writes, “it has the perfect opportunity now to present itself as the clean alternative to an oil-stained and declining American empire.” — @maxfawcett.bsky.social

Donald Trump has Canada over a barrel of oil and he knows it. He might not be a deep thinker when it comes to, say, foreign policy, but Trump is a genius at sniffing out weakness on the part of others...
