Voracious reader; atoms before bytes. My opinion about research? Read. Read. Read. Part owner of Canada, so don't mistake kindness for weakness! Yes, I realize America can take us over, but it will pay a price.
Goldy Hyder -- once chief of staff for Tory Joe Clark AND the world of 2020 Brexit is vastly different than today.

Take it with a grain of salt. Goldy needs a sound byte; "working with the larger world" is so readily apparent.👍
This is absolute hogwash. Prime Minister Carney is doing the opposite of what the UK did with Brexit: Canada isn’t isolating itself but, rather, moving away from being isolated with 🇺🇸as our main trading partner and working with the larger world.

It’s worse than hogwash: its history wash.

Hmmm. 80,000 United Empire Loyalists in the 18th century fundamentally altered Canadian history.❤️

Wouldn't it be outstanding to see the best, the brightest, and the most decent of our neighbours constitute a second migration?🍁

'Course, they'd need to leave those guns behind . . .😉

It's nice to see Canadian political cartoons every now and then.

Not really . . . know why? I bought a copy of "The Life of Chuck" BECAUSE of your math "soliloquy" to your character's grandson. I can watch that sequence as many times as I want. So, as long as my DVD player keeps living, so will you.😉❤️🍁

Keep kicking at the darkness. You help everyone's light.

"Machine" Mike Marshall's 106 relief appearances in a season and 208 innings -- both records. He set that record as a member of the Dodgers (go figure!) but I will always remember his Expos days.🍁
With pitchers and catchers reporting in 2 weeks, what are your favorite unbelievable-but-true baseball stats?

I think for me, it's Mariano Rivera's 0.70 ERA in 141 post-season innings. In fun terms: More people (12) have walked on the moon than scored off Rivera (11) in the post-season.

Your lap is the problem, not my size!😉
In any case here is a very large (somehow still only) adolescent dog that still thinks he’s a tiny tiny baby 🐶

Wow. Just wow.❤️

This is turning out to be a great Saturday!
I sometimes despair that the camera can never really capture just how amazing the natural world can be. But sometimes, just sometimes, the winter light hits those reeds and all those reflections pop... #birds #birdphotography #birding #photooftheday #photography #NatureIsAmazing

THANK YOU for this post. Living next to a political dumpster fire, whose flames are threatening to burn down my country, I applaud this news. Oh, and I'll add the team picture published by the Spanish government. Love the gender dominance here!

Oh yes, release the ORIGINAL Epstein files, please.

It does make sense if you've seen "Canadian Bacon" and "Wag the Dog."😉

Distract, distract, distract.

Oh, and release the Epstein Files.

When I buy anything from the grocery store, I look for Product of Canada, this means it is entirely, or almost entirely, Canadian content (98% or more). I also buy locally made products, products from the UK, Australia, Scotland etc. #Canada

Read the labels carefully.

The push to buy Canadian is loud and clear, but are those local-looking products the real deal? CBC Marketplace exposes how some popular foods that seem Canadian are actually made in the U.S. Experts ...

As Canada finds its sovereignty threatened by the U.S., Trump plays the villain.

But it is #BigTech that rules the world and poses its own threat to Canadian sovereignty.

And nothing the Mark Carney government has proposed is likely to blunt its efforts.

If there’s a hell, it will be filled with people who claimed faith in Jesus, while trying to strip the sick of care, the terrified of refuge, and the vulnerable of protection, and reveled in it as if it were a righteous victory.

Leave the Veep alone, George.

He obviously didn't read Groom's book. First, it's Forrest, not trees, and Gump's character is one of the bravest men in the novel. And Sergeant Scribbles probably meant Mr. Newton who lived down the street from him in Middletown, Ohio.

'Cause Marco's no Newton.😉
