“So, you’ve written a book?”

Me: one or two, yeah

“Why is he trying to ramp up anti-🇨🇦 sentiment instead of just invading,” you ask?

Because he knows it would be foolish to attack when 70% of his own population opposes it.

Anyhow, please know Canada is not stealing fish. We have plenty off our ENORMOUS COASTLINE. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Canada—for the love of all things, don’t mess this up. We have a real opportunity to become an economic powerhouse with Carney at the helm. #canadianelection

The premiers and I agree: we must build one strong Canadian economy, not thirteen.

So we will work together to break down internal trade barriers.

President Trump’s tariffs are rupturing the global economy, and seniors are rightfully worried about their savings.

My government will protect your retirement by reducing the minimum RRIF withdrawal amount by 25% and increasing the GIS by 5%, tax-free — for a year.

The fun thing is that everyone is screwed. It’s “We Are the World” but no one can afford eggs or air and we’re all big mad. Especially Australia 🇦🇺

I’ve realized one reason I like Mark Carney is that he feels extremely…Canadian. There’s no BS manipulation, no pomp or bluster. He’s just a really smart guy who smiles a lot, plays 🏒, and wants to solve a large problem that affects more than just him.

I hope Canada keeps our eyes on the prize. 🇨🇦

Canadians:

Do not assume the Liberals have this in the bag.

Ask yourselves who you want navigating this country through the next few years, if you’re on the fence. Be critical in your thinking. If you see rumours or inflammatory posts, do your research to see whether they’re true.

Elbows Up. 🇨🇦

The unjustified U.S. tariffs hurt Canadian workers. We’re rightly retaliating — and every dollar from our tariffs will support our workers. (1/2)

In case anyone hasn’t yet seen the letter from Senator Tom Tillis of N. Carolina to a U.S. constituent who expressed concern about the language re: Canada as a 51st state, read this.

This is how they’re talking about our sovereign nation. Mention of “territory.”

NO statehood. 🇨🇦

Unfortunately my nervous system can’t tell the difference between having my country’s sovereignty repeatedly threatened and being held at gunpoint

Sometimes, I wonder what it would take to turn them against him.

Then I remember there were people dying from covid who cried out as they died that they didn’t have covid and it was a hoax.

And I remember that it’s not about making them listen—it’s about DOING something.

Speaking as a dystopian author and a human:

We’re not living in a dystopian novel, my friends. We’re living in the prequel. The flashback era where people storm the Capitol to protest a legitimate election and refuse to storm it to protest an actual coup.
