Congratulations, President @LulaOficial, on your re-election in Brazil.
The relationship between Canada and Brazil has flourished under our partnership. Let’s seize this opportunity to make it even stronger, together — to create major new trade opportunities, protect the environment, and build greater prosperity for both our peoples.

'You lost me when you said your problem with Putin is he's not using nuclear weapons... you're one screw loose from a full tool kit!'
Konstantin Malofeev claims Piers Morgan has "disappointed him" during a fiery debate on Ukraine-Russia.

Ten years in, the debate over Canada's MAiD regime is far from over.
Parliament's joint committee, AMAD, recommends an indefinite pause on MAiD for mental illness.
I joined Rob Snow on Now You Know to discuss Track 2 MAiD, MAiD doctor shopping, and these developments (8:00-18:35).

President Trump’s decision to lift sanctions on Russian fuel amidst Putin’s ongoing and brutal attacks on civilian targets in Ukraine makes no sense and is a betrayal of the legacy and leadership of the late Senator Lindsey Graham.
While Ukraine fights for its survival, Putin’s war machine continues to prosecute his terrorist war on civilian populations and innocent Ukrainians are dying every day.
Now, Instead of implementing the tough sanctions Lindsey Graham fought to his last breath to enact, President Trump has announced the United States is lifting sanctions on Russian energy, fueling the Putin’s war machine.
As I saw firsthand in Ukraine last month, Putin is losing this war. Ukraine has fought the Russian military to a standstill and reinvented warfare with drones taking the fight into the heart of Russia.
America should not be throwing a lifeline to Putin’s war machine. Now is the time to stand strong against Russian aggression as we did during the first Trump administration.
Putin doesn’t want peace. Putin wants Ukraine. I have no doubt that if Putin overruns Ukraine, it will only be a matter of time until Russia’s military crosses a border that our troops will have to deal with him.
America is the Leader of the Free World. For our National Security, for the security of our Allies in Europe including Ukraine, President Trump should rescind this deal immediately and return to the strong policies of our four years in the White House; impose harsh sanctions on any nation purchasing Russian energy and work with our allies to ensure Ukraine has the military support it needs to repel and defeat this Russian invasion once and for all.

Just sick.
Embarrassed that this man is my president.

History will not be kind to this weird, sycophantic, evil little man.

I generally don’t do things like this but I have deleted the Google Maps app from my phone.
A small personal protest against
one of the many ludicrous things happening.
Long live Lake Ontario. 🇨🇦

If we elect a Democrat in 2028, I will do everything in my power, whether inside or outside of the government, to unravel Trump’s illegitimate oil deal with the illegitimate dictatorship in Venezuela. I hope CEOs of American companies tempted to get involved in this Trump deal instead think about the long term financial interests of their shareholders and the reputations of their companies. Exploiting resources of the Venezuelan people without their permission is both immoral and not a sustainable economic play.

Chapman's Ice Cream has just done something EVERY Canadian should know.
The largest ice cream company in Canada used to source fruit and nuts from American suppliers — for some, for over 30 years. Then, Trump imposed a 25% tariff on Canadian products.
So, what did Chapman's do?
📷 They called Italy.
📷 They called Spain.
📷 They signed multi-year contracts with European suppliers.
And the vice president said it perfectly:
"Even if Trump wakes up smarter than yesterday, we're about to sign long-term deals with other countries — and the American companies that supply them will have nothing but their eyes to cry for."
Oh, and on top of ALL that? They're COLDing their prices so that the average Canadian doesn't have to spend a single cent more.
It's a family business. No shareholders. Just the Chapman family saying: "The least we can do is make sure Canadians still have the means to buy ice cream."
That's what Canadian pride looks like.
Next time you're at the grocery store — grab some Chapman's.
Every scoop of ice cream is a vote for Canada.

Canada will match the new U.S. tariffs dollar for dollar.
In addition, we are introducing $7.5 billion in new and enhanced measures to support Canadian workers and businesses. That builds on the nearly $25 billion in supports introduced since the implementation of the U.S. unjustified tariffs.
Defending Canadian jobs, industries, and families.

It's time to repost this explanation from Scott Galloway of how the U.S disproportionately benefits from trade with Canada, in pure economic shareholder value terms. Added bonus, he shuts up Kevin O'Leary who is speechless. #cdnpoli #ableg

Antes de que las avenidas se llenaran de tráfico y las colonias cambiaran de rostro, hubo un hombre que convirtió la vida cotidiana de la Ciudad de México en canciones inolvidables. Ese fue Salvador “Chava” Flores, compositor, cronista y uno de los grandes retratistas musicales del México urbano.
El 5 de agosto de 1987, Chava Flores falleció en la CDMX a los 67 años de edad, a consecuencia de un paro cardiorrespiratorio derivado de complicaciones de salud. Su legado permanece vigente gracias a canciones como Sábado Distrito Federal, A qué le tiras cuando sueñas, mexicano, La tienda de mi pueblo y “Peso sobre peso”, mejor conocida como “La Bartola”, tema que él hizo famoso y que, con humor e ironía, retrata las dificultades económicas de un hogar mexicano:
Mira Bartola,
Ahí te dejo esos dos pesos
Pagas la renta,
El telégono y la luz.
De lo que sobre,
Coges de ‘ay para tu gasto
Guárdame el resto
Para hecharme mi alipus.
El dinero que yo gano
Toditito te lo doy
Te doy peso sobre peso
Siempre hasta llegar a dos.
Tú no aprecias mis centavos
Y los gastas que da horror
Yo por eso no soy rico,
Por ser despilfarrador.

Le déni de réalité ne nous empêchera pas d’avoir à sortir des énergies fossiles, capturer le carbone , reconstituer la biodiversité. Pour y parvenir, il faudra que la jeunesse créative prenne le pouvoir contre les rentiers et les assistés de tous les âges . Plus on retarde cette révolution, plus la situation va devenir dramatique et finalement irréversible.

La faceta de Miguel Covarrubias como cartógrafo inició en 1938, cuando realizó seis mapa-murales conocidos como Pageant of the Pacific, creados para el edificio Pacific House de la Golden Gate International Exposition, celebrada en San Francisco entre 1939 y 1940.
En 1947, Covarrubias pintó el Mapa de Producción de la República Mexicana (Rutas Marítimas), obra en la que plasmó la geografía del país e incorporó elementos culturales representativos de cada región. El mural permaneció en el Hotel del Prado hasta 1985, cuando el terremoto afectó la estructura del inmueble y la pieza fue retirada para su conservación.
Ahora, tras los trabajos de restauración realizados por el CENCROPAM del INBAL, el mural formará parte de la exposición México: ruta y destino, que revisa la construcción de una identidad nacional durante el siglo XX, en un periodo en el que México se consolidó como destino turístico y punto de intercambio cultural. La muestra propone una reflexión sobre los vínculos entre arte, política cultural y diplomacia, a través de un recorrido que abarca de la posrevolución al llamado “milagro mexicano”.

Hay una pandemia que nadie quiere frenar: la del egoísmo. Y esa, también se contagia.
El mayor riesgo para la salud global ya no es la falta de ciencia, sino la falta de conciencia. Por eso, cuando otros recortan, España duplica su ayuda.
Porque ninguna sociedad merece llamarse civilizada si abandona a los suyos. Cuidar de quien no puede cuidarse no es caridad. Es lo que nos hace humanos.
