Retired newspaperman. Fact-checking is fun! Accuracy is a virtue. From "the wicked city of Montreal." Canada π is not for sale. We won't give Canada to anyone. We won't let anyone take it from us. #ElbowsUp

"In the eyes of the Trump administration, Canada is just another big blue stateβanother Minneapolis. ... And because of this β and because of our small population and enviable natural resources β weβve become its target."
Must-read esssy.
Never put the elbows down, Canada.
Important read for those that still hold the belief that we are not in the cross hairs of another nations' scope. We are. We need to continue to shop Canadian. We need to shut down the rhetoric. stand for our rights. "Our national unity is paramount to our survival."

She's not gone. Trump is moving her into a position to bully the rest of North America into being annexed by the US.
I recall some pundits criticizing him b/c he wouldn't "stay and fight." He did what he felt was right for him and his family. It's not like he's hiding in an ashram in Tibet.

There's no reason for Iran to attack NATO nation Turkeyβbut a drone did. Iran denies sending it.
There's no reason for Iran to attack a UK base in Cyprusβbut a drone did. Iran denies sending it.
Now Azerbaijan has been attacked. Iran denies involvement.
I think this is Israel.

I reckon that's an idiom akin to "they don't have a dog in the fight."
This is well worth reading. And Prof. Snyder nails it top corner when he discussed the obsequiousness of the U.S. men's hockey team in general and Brady Tkachuk in particular.
Hey, maybe Kristi Noem can apply for a job as dance instructor at the Haskell Free Library in Quebec/Vermont. #FcukKristiNoem

What a mook.
Trying again:
TWIMC : My handle on Gander π (once the bugs are ironed out) is @neill.gander.social . Hope to see my friends there :D
Could be. It's still in Beta testing (I think that's what it's called), so maybe that's a glitch to be addressed. I'm reposting my Gander handle without the URL address that accompanied it before.
@neill.gander.social
Oh, let me look into that, Tom. I do know the Gander app is operating only on Android phones, not on laptops.
He's saying we're not going to participate in offensive actions against Iran, but might need to defend our allies.
Chill, people.
What Carney said: "One can never categorically rule out participation. We will stand by our allies when it makes sense." But he also said there's a difference between the βoffensive actionsβ of the United States and Israel that started the conflict, and defending Canada against attacks.

Reported by whom?
Your post supports the idea that Patel was invited in. (Guerin, as GM, is part of the "team.") If the "reporting" you cite is true, Guerin was either blind to the consequences, or is a MAGA supporter.
Also, it was a player who hung a gold medal around Patel's neck -- not Guerin.
Who's expressing this opinion? The CP logo in the corner could be for the photo credit.

IMHO, Robert Irvine has always come off as an arrogant bully. Perfect hire for Hegseth.
