On earth 2, the sitting President offers gracious words of hope and support to his predecessor who has been diagnosed with cancer. He asks the nation to keep the President in their thoughts, and reassures the country that cutting edge science produced by the top universities may offer treatment.

Liberals - do not listen to any messaging that says "Liberals already have it in the bag so Liberal voters needn't bother voting".
Disregard that stuff, it is a voter suppression technique.
Tomorrow get out and vote come hell or high water. #cdnpoli

Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador president’s statements today, we’re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.

I lost my PCP for the second time in 3 years. I have a ‘meet and greet’ with a Nurse Practitioner next month and I’m terrified of how that’s going to go. It’s booked for 20 minutes, and there is no way we can get through half of it in that amount of time.

B.C. has 1.3M rapid tests in a warehouse, officials confirm after top doctor called it an 'urban myth' There are more than 1.3 million unused rapid tests in British Columbia, according to the Ministry of Health. And they are indeed sitting in a warehouse.

Remember when Bonnie Henry lied and said schools don’t drive transmission of Covid?

Remember when Bonnie Henry lied and said rapid tests sitting unused in a B.C. warehouse was an “urban myth?” When in fact there were 1.3 million rapid tests stashed in that warehouse?

Imagine this: On the evening of March 8, you and your spouse unlock the door to your apartment building. As you step inside, two men—not in uniform—push their way in behind you. They tell you your visa has been revoked and that they are there to deport you.

'Crook, Liar, Racist': As a Veteran Reporter, I’m Not Afraid to Call Trump What He Is Calling Trump corrupt and a threat to America are not opinions. They are objective statements of fact.

"Can a fair-minded reporter flatly describe the president as corrupt and a threat to America itself? Are those facts?...I say, “Yes.” Calling Trump corrupt and a threat to America are not opinions. They are objective statements of fact." - blistering from veteran political correspondent John Harwood

A massive story in Canada is that damn near the entire country is turning on national God Wayne Gretzky because he refuses to stand up for Canadian sovereignty due to his desire to keep getting invites to Mar A Lago. An entire country choosing dignity over star-f*cking. We could take a lesson.

Trump's Threat to Take Over Canada Is a Scandal Trump keeps threatening to annex Canada. Americans would never accept such talk from another country.

“It is, or at least it should be, a damp stain on our national conscience, and your average outraged Canadian is responding rationally. If anything, it’s the American public that should be taking Trump’s depravity more seriously. We allowed this to happen.”
