National sovereignty begins with energy sovereignty. #Canada ‘nation building’ projects should be about clean, distributed, public-owned energy, not pipelines for fossil-fuel exports.
Europe learned this from the Russian occupation of Ukraine. Will it take a war before we figure it out?

It’s also important to zoom out and look at the big picture; everything the Trump administration has done was done under cover of some manufactured ‘emergency’.
From the tariffs, to the concentration camps, to the rolling of the military on blue states, to the extrajudicial killings in the Caribbean; everything has been ‘authorized’ by some sort of ‘emergency’ powers.
Trump wants Canada, but to justify the annexation he needs to provoke some kind of ‘emergency’ to make that happen.
It’s pretty clear that Smith’s UCP are sock-puppets for the MAGA regime. And it’s also clear that Smith intends to provoke a ‘national crisis’ by stirring the separatist pot and shitting all over the constitution. Everything they are doing is straight out of the #HeritageFoundation #Project2025 playbook.
How soon do you think it will be before Trump decides to step in and ‘liberate’ Alberta from the ‘oppressive’ Carney regime?
Remember when they tried that shit with the #FreedomConvoy but didn’t quite get there?..
Come to think of it, I can’t think of a better dick-punch to Trump for his hurt-feelings meltdown over DoFos ad, than for Carney to announce that we’ve ‘decided to go in a different direction’ for our fighter jet needs.
Canada should buy the Gripen.

Ben Perrin, former legal advisor to PMO under Harper (April 14, 2025):
"In Prime Minister Mark Carney, I see a leader of substance, with the skills and experience to navigate the storms of Trump’s unpredictability and threats, and a dramatically shifting global order. A vision for a strong Canada where no one is left behind. His policies will build a better country we can all be proud of."

"Under Pierre Poilievre, the Conservatives have embraced conspiracy theories, regressive proposals, and MAGA-style policies. I am gravely concerned about the harm to Canadians that a Poilievre government would bring."
