Another Canadian Premier joins with Danielle Smith to demand the right to deny you your rights under the constitution, because feels
In the history of fake events, Trump’s assassination stunt has no equal. It was so fake that even the staff at the National Enquirer said, “Oh, c’mon now, what a load of shit.”
Call me crazy but I think Donald Trump staged his own assassination attempt
Something the so many have learned.
Ceasefire always means those who resist lay down their arms, while those in power are allowed to continue oppression and murder at will.
For reference see Israel in Gaza, West Bank, Syria, Jordan, UAE, Iran, and Lebanon.
Who suspected after all the bravado, that Foug Ford wanted to emulate his hero.
Fossil Fuels Are Not The Future….
It feels wierd.
I grew up thinking the US was flawed, but generally positive, and that Israel was reacting to its surrounding environment.
Now, the US seems to be just evil, and Israel has exposed itself as an orchestrator of murder and slaughter for the theft of land beyond its environment.
I would argue that the US and Israel arent just dangerous.
Instead they are deliberately acting in a manner to cause serious and continuous harm to others without regard to the consequences.
In other words, deliberately destructive and murderous.
Iran isn't dangerous. The US and Israel are extremely dangerous.

We should be learning from other countries...
Thought: would it become harder to get approval to develop surface parking lots if they're covered in solar panels? If so, this would sort of lock in an inefficient use of land
Israeli forces are destroying more than 1,000 homes a day in Lebanon, according to a preliminary assessment by Lebanon’s National Council for Scientific Research (CNRS), which described Israeli attacks on the country as an "unprecedented escalation"
Bluesy seems to be going through growing pains.
We are all severely under reacting to the fact that the sitting president of the United States RAPED CHILDREN
Why is it that price signals, the manifestation of the free market, are some innately wise force when it comes to housing or groceries — but when gas prices rise, we should do everything we can to blunt it? Are drivers exempt from the free market? Are there no alternatives to driving SUVs?
THE USA IS A TERRORIST STATE
Dear America,
Please stop saying that Donald Trump is the Leader of the Free World. He is not. We have Zero Respect for Him.
Signed The Free World.
I think you have that wrong.
They put the grift he enables before America.
Every single time
More than 1m Europeans have called for a full suspension of the EU's trade agreement with Israel.
However the EU is planning just a partial suspension, tariffs on only 40% of Israel's exports.
This not acceptable.
Full suspension of the Trade Agreement with Israel.
NOW.
Key Note for Canadians: Your gas prices are being set by Gazprom, Saudi Arabia, ExonMobile. Who really benefits from this war against Iran, besides Netanyahu?

Not to mention leaving out the companies entirely from the dreadful prospect of not maintaining margins and therefore keeping profits and costs growing.
Aw, look.
Danielle is getting Albertans ready to become Americans after the referendum.
She isnt going to let health care get in the way of running a government with no spending, except gifts for CEOs and hockey tickets for her.
Now you can pay for your own health care in Alberta.
All he did was remove the veneer of diplomacy over the greed and artiface. The rest of the world has long known the the US has been the bully shaping the world to serve their interests.
Remember the 2 million Gazans killed by the children of those Europeans that survived the Nazis. Many because of the kindness of Palestinians until the Zionists arrived to begin the slaughter from the 1930s
