Today is Earth Day, but each year it can feel a little more like Groundhog Day.
While we replay the same pipeline debates in Canada, the rest of the world is racing ahead on renewable energy — which is growing so fast that it met all new electricity demand in 2025.

MARIN: Relationship between United States and Europe is changing. This is a fact we cannot escape, and it means we need to focus on our own game.
We are now talking about European defence capabilities, European unity, European military forces, and European nuclear deterrence.
Canada will be in a superior negotiating position for NAFTA-sequel renegotiations, with way more leverage, because Trump will be coming out of the Iran war and approaching midterms and therefore will be needing stable Canadian trade more than we need theirs

According to Howard Lutnick, the economic strategy of Canada, one of our greatest allies, “sucks.”
These childish insults do nothing except hurt small businesses in New Hampshire—many of whom rely on Canadian exports and tourism.
This doesn’t just impact the US - the SPLC has been covering movements for years that have been present in Canada, especially, Neo-Nazis and the Hammerskins movement. The are important to the global conversation around hate and this is why they are being targeted.
Europe has proven that it has the capacity to support Ukraine not only last year. With the €90 billion loan that we will approve tomorrow, we will support Ukraine in 2026 and 2027. And we will continue as long as necessary and whatever it takes.

Renewables have outstripped coal. But in Canada, renewable energy plant construction has dropped, leaving wind and solar power accounting for just nine per cent of the country’s electricity mix — less than half the average among the G7.
The Left/Liberal split just never happened on a party level in America the way it did in Europe & the (rest of the) Anglosphere.
This has probably been good for the Democrats on an electoral level, but bad for political analysis.

Chump wants an entry fee from Canada to get into trade talks with USA and Mexico.
How should I put this?

This is another one of the differences between Canada and the US: we just don't see that many octogenarian politicians
There aren't even all that many in their 70s
TRAVEL TIP if doing a driving trip in Canada this year:
(Welcome to you too, USians! Don't be scared if you come curious & friendly!)
DOWNLOAD ALL TRAVEL MAPS FOR CANADA FOR OFFLINE USE. You are not prepared for how often you can lose cell coverage in the backcountry. Do NOT rely on online maps!
Why is it that none of us, including this administration, can tell the difference between Israel and Hamas? Why do our allies seem more like terrorists than the good guys? I don't see the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Canada, Poland, Spain, Norway, the 👇🏾

Those concessions got us nowhere.

United States farmers have never paid 200% tariffs on dairy products to Canada.
In fact in the 2022/23 period, only about 42% of the total available quota volume was used. In 2024, approximately 99.9% of U.S. dairy exports to Canada entered duty-free or at minimal rates. Lutnick is lieing
#Canada these people can fuck themselves. A fucking enforcement action. And they think Canada’s going to buy their products?
Just caught a press photo (Nathan Denette, CP) of me listening politely to Pierre Poilievre' speech about how everything in Canada is broken and it's Carney's fault, even the stuff before he was PM. #cdnpoli
