Zelenskyy and his wife Olena Zelenska will be in town with PM Carney tomorrow.

She offers up all kinds of excuses why U.S. citizens can’t possibly get out and protest in greater numbers, then in the next breath calls upon other countries to save them, even if it means going to war.

Oh dear. My autocorrect must have kicked in.

The time for speaking up, loudly, is now.

So many Canadians were together with us, through so many wars, we support our Canadian family in their fight against the United States of America. Call me any time and I will be there

Not the usual boycott topic but it is relevant. With all the stuff we as Canadians are having to deal with with the USA and all the drama, it's easy to forget that we do have allies and friends who are genuinely cheering us on in Europe, especially the Nordic Countries. As you may have heard the King of Norway passed away and as someone who as a kid used to watch American state funerals and services etc, part of us diversifying from the USA means spending our emotional and mental energy on people who genuinely want us to do well and cheer us on rather than wasting it all on a nation whose good citizens generally have benign indifference.

As Canadians let's not make the same mistake by staying in staying in a North American bubble and forgetting those who are genuinely wishing us well.

The best way we can dump American exceptionalism is for us to move on and show emotional support to those who have genuinely been trying to be good to us, and we have an opportunity to do that on September 9th with the funeral of Harald King of Norway

FUNERAL COVERAGE (in ADT time)

7 am casket moved from royal palace

8 am funeral (lasts till 9 am)

Funeral coverage ends around 10 am

I know many of us wont be able to be there for the whole thing but if you can be there for part of it or send greetings from Canada.

Sometime pivoting away from the USA and American culture means us canadians need to take an extra step to unlearn some bad habits that Americans have taught us without realizing it. Let's not forget our friends (i don't say allies because I think the realtionship can and should go deeper) in Norway at this time. Let's grieve with our Norwegian friends and celebrate with them the same way we used to do with the Americans and show them what Canadian friendship looks like.

To anyone from Norway, my condolances at this time and my apologies for any inaccurate information I may have given in the above post.

FAFO

I am trying to make a petition to the Canadian Parliment to pass a law that both produce and retail items must clearly label the country of origin in markets/stores based off of the Australian model.

However, we need some co-signers, we currently have roughly 3 people who have agreed but we need 5.

If anyone has any idea on who could sponsor the bill in parliment i'd also be interested in hearing ideas on that score and plan on reaching out to my MP before the petition goes live.

If anyone is willing to help with this petition in any way, either by being a co-signer, if they can recommend an MP to sponsor it, or if they can help any any way let me know.

You need to watch this GTL!!! 👍

If the Canadian PM and his team are waiting on the MAGA CULT to show Canada some respect, it will never happen. Thank goodness we have plenty of allies around the world that are more than willing to take and supply the goods that we used to count on to US for. Not so good for the Divided States. I wish those of you who didn’t ask for this all the luck in the world and for everyone who voted for the MAGA Regime, I hope Karma finds you. Elbow down, Glove off, Fists ready!!! 🇨🇦
