Posts by Edward in Canada, eh 🇨🇦.

I think a lot of honest, well-meaning people are reading the Prime Minister’s statement the same way he possibly wants trump to read it.

If I’m going to fault him, it could be for assuming Canadians had better critical thinking skills.

Something we can all work on.

"...misinformation is not just about false or misleading content, but about how degraded information can destabilize entire social systems..."

Agreed.

Doug Ford can't have it both ways on EVs Ontario's premier has talked a big game about the importance of standing up to Donald Trump. But when it comes to EVs, he just showed that he's more than happy to surrender.

Doug Ford wants Canada to be strong with the Trump administration — except when it comes to EVs.

Pick a lane, Doug. #cdnpoli

If allowing less than 5% of the our current importing automobiles from #China into #Canada (in exchange for major concessions on canola & seafood exports) is going to put our auto sector at risk, what the hell is the impact of #Trump saying he doesn't want auto's to be made in Canada? #EVs #Autos

There's something off about the map @damienmoule.bsky.social shared (I.E. an oddity, perhaps inadvertent, created by the map maker). But I'm sadly never surprised by 'getting it wrong' about corners of Scarborough (Toronto). I'll have to dig in to the 'play assumptions' on the Play Map too because ?
