For months now almost every single day has brought one bit of bad news after another from America…militarily, economically, politically, socially. And the sad thing is, most Americans don’t sense the breadth of it, even if the rest of the world does. The Decline and Fall of the American Empire.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/site-c-work-camp-demolition-end-of-life-1.7500296 Such a shame to see structures like these possibly going into landfill. Despite the expense of disassembly and moving, it could be a good, relatively fast solution for military housing or even...

It’s my understanding that Jenni Byrne is one of the strategists that Poilievre listens to the most.

The Conservatives have a long history of shooting themselves in the foot.

https://medicinehatnews.com/news/local-news/2025/03/26/former-mp-wants-to-explore-albertas-future-with-u-s/ I have a question regarding the possibility of, say, Alberta holding a referendum on joining the United States. First off, I don’t think most Albertans would vote to join the U.S. for a...

Recalling our ambassador would be a very good signal to Congress and the American people regarding the seriousness of what Trump is doing. Trump’s economic warfare against U.S. is intended to pound us into submission and to accept America’s domination of Canada, forcing us to become his 51st...

I think she’s so enamoured of the U.S. and the media attention she’s getting south of the border that she’d even sell her soul. I think this will appeal only to hers and the party’s most extreme right wing supporters

Sad.

O’Leary is almost as full of crap as Trump.

I w I wonder if their entry as an associate member would cause some countries to leave the Commonwealth.

I think your observations are pretty much spot on. Although AI and other technologies are playing increasing roles in our lives, I think far too much attention is being taken away from the traditional trades. For example, this country could definitely use a lot more truly qualified machinists...

Well, at least France isn’t trying to force us to become their 19th (?) Region or whatever equivalent it is to the 51st state. By all means let us one day be friends again with the Americans and do business with them. Just keep them from getting too close and too friendly.

I’ve said numerous times in the past year that the Trudeau government needs to drastically reduce the number of people coming into this country, whether legal immigrants, students or refugees. I’ve seen all the unemployed people living in the streets and going to the Food Bank for something to...

I’m not really disagreeing with you about younger people and what they are going through in these times and should have included that as well in my doubts about conscription being feasible. I learned about the conscription crisis many decades ago. However, please note that I did mention “some...

That’s a good reason not to go. Who wants to go into a room filled with people who are basically screaming at you? The session with Zelenskyy was either planned ahead of time (most likely) or quickly spiralled out of control. Regardless, Carney should never accept being treated the way...

i like to think that the BQ would be open minded and see that it would be for the common good. Somehow I just can’t see them supporting it without the rest of Canada giving up something major to support their plan for eventual independence.

Although I would like to see some form of national service, I just can’t see Quebec going along with it. Still I think the idea should at least be discussed by our politicians.

From what I can see, the young writer, described as a poet, may still be a student and apparently has not gone to a journalism school. She seems to be expressing a viewpoint without having done much investigating. I blame the publication for accepting her work more than I do her for having...

Not just nasty…shoddy.

Flyswatters?
