You raise a good point. Diplomacy has been upended by that administration & many of the old rules no longer hold. Finding balance on a tightrope that gets loosened, then pulled taut again requires being quick on your feet and aware of the very real threat that the person pulling the rope poses.
Is antisematism being confused with anti Israel policies?
There is also a lot of anti Americanism at present.
I worry about Harper &Associates and business ties to Israeli Gov't.
Racism, poverty and religion motivate hate against a group. The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms has a purpose.
Thinking about the P.M.'s dodging ploy.What if he inadvertently said something that the President could construe as a threat to US National Security, and use it against Canada?
Control of the Western Hemisphere is a stated goal.
Canadian sovereignty is at risk. Trump has nukes.

Nooooooooope.
Since 2019, we have had unrelenting procedural warfare in the House of Commons. Look at the paltry numbers of bills that have passed in that period. This notion that minority parliaments (not governments) breed cooperation is frankly grade school nonsense.
A sepia-toned studio portrait of Pauline Johnson in right-facing profile. She has long, wavy dark hair and wears a fringed garment decorated with small metal ornaments and fur trim. Around her neck is a necklace of curved, claw-like pieces. Her expression is neutral, and she is posed against a plain, light background with soft, even lighting. The image is tightly framed from the chest up.
On this day in 1861, Pauline Johnson was born at the Six Nations Reserve. She became one of Canada's most significant poets during her life and a Canadian literary icon.

Trump: "I said, Why don't we just capture the ship? He said, It's more fun to sink them." #cdnpoli
These are war crimes and they laugh like it's a computer game.

This is a) a very interesting read (a numbers station!) from and b) a good reminder that Iran likely still has plenty of asymmetric weapons (cyber, proxies, criminal surrogates) to deploy in the war.

Remember guys, you can’t afford a gas rig, or a coal mine, or a nuclear power station, but you can afford to put some cheap solar panels on your roof.
That’s why the fossil fuel industry has spent billions trying to kill renewable energy.

Jason Kenney: Great ad!!! 🔥 Looks like the CAF has decided to end the disastrous branding as a Trudeau era DEI project, and focus on recruiting Canadian patriots who want to be warriors defending our country! 🇨🇦 💪🏼 More of this please! Quoting Canadian Armed Forces: Looks like a cutscene. Feels like a calling. This is where strength and determination meet discipline and action. This is the CAF. This is what it looks like when a country shows up. Learn more and apply now: Video clip below.
Per Jason Kenney, a former defence minister, only straight white men can defend the country. Everything else is DEI.
One more because it is a true favourite.

Two Atlantic Puffins in the ocean, actively taking off with wings spread wide, kicking up a chaotic splash as it runs on the water.
Hard work isn't always elegant! With wings built for swimming, Atlantic Puffins must awkwardly run across the waves flapping 400 times a minute to get airborne. Channeling this exact unglamorous, water-flailing, take-charge energy to conquer this Tuesday! 🚀

If an official commits an impeachable offense and nobody acts to impeach, it is no longer an impeachable offense.
People who oppose impeachment as “pointless” because it seems unlikely to result in removal do not understand this very simple point and seem unwilling to even try to understand it.
Wake up, a new scandal that would end any other presidency just dropped. bsky.app/profile/cram...

How the Iran War Will Kill Oil and Gas
O&G now have a competitor: electricity.
High prices + volatility encourage consumers to buy check out the competition. Especially in the Global South.
Buckle up, Canada.

I would venture to say the majority of banned titles have some sort of queer/trans content in them. Because of course they do.
"The prime minister hasn't approved a pipeline" would be a stronger argument if anyone was proposing to build a pipeline.
Nine questions into QP.

Well Boohoo automakers. You’ve hitched your wagons to Ratpublican politicians and they’re screwing you. As a company you’ve screwed your employees, you drive cost down buy building unreliable cars.
