@ElexiconEnergy Any idea when 2 minutes outside of Gravenhurst will be restored? The map is never updated online so I don't know what parts are still out
Hey everyone! I’m working on a 20th anniversary documentary of Hurricane #Katrina and I’m looking for interview subjects. If you went through the ‘cane or know someone who did, I’d love to hear from you. I’m focusing on how the area has rebuilt since the storm as well.
Trump’s tariff speech yesterday:
- Held up a chart that listed fictional tariff rates supposedly but not actually imposed by foreign countries
- Falsely said hefty Canadian milk tariffs kick in after after the first “little carton” of US exports; in fact, they kick in after a USMCA-guaranteed tens of thousands of metric tons per year of zero-tariff US milk exports, a quota the US isn’t currently close to filling
- Made the trade deficit with Canada sound more than five times higher than it is
- Falsely said the tens of billions generated by his previous tariffs on Chinese imports were paid by China, though they were paid by US importers and passed on to US consumers
- Falsely said no previous president generated even 10 cents from tariffs on China, though it was billions per year under Obama and though the US has had tariffs on Chinese imports since the late 1700s
- Falsely though vaguely said the US was “proportionately the wealthiest it has ever been” from 1789 to 1913; by any reasonable measure, the country is vastly wealthier today
- Falsely said inflation under Biden was the highest in US history; it peaked under Biden at the highest in 40 years but was nowhere close to the all-time high even at that 2022 peak
- Said “gasoline is way under $3” though the national average was $3.24; did so while boasting “we brought prices way down,” though that was a 12-cent increase from the national average on his Inauguration Day
- Claimed the Great Depression wouldn’t have happened if we’d just stuck with tariffs, making no mention of the Smoot-Hawley tariffs that worsened the depression

"Wow. A Vice-President who is as dumb as he is aggressive."
@NickFerrariLBC reacts to JD Vance describing Britain as 'some random country that hasn't fought a war in 30 or 40 years.'
What's worse, the guy lying through his teeth or the people who blindly believe and support it? Seriously, how do you ignore it when so much of what is said is verifiably false? I just don't get it.
This speech has been so full of vile shit.
Just a reminder my Canadian friends. Many spring projects.
Home Depot is 100% American owned. The owner is Bernard Marcus is a huge Trump supporter.
Home hardware is 100% Canadian owned.
Pass the word repost.
Yes, I am angry at Donald Trump and JD Vance for their contemptible display hosting Vladimir Zelensky of Ukraine. And, yes, I will peacefully resist. #donaldtrump#jdvance#istandwithukraine
Never better display of Zelensky's courage than today. Never clearer that Trump/Vance are on the side of the Kremlin. Never more obvious that the democratic world must unite in defence of Ukraine, and in defiance of the United States.

@HowesNathan@environmentca I'm in Gravenhurst and we got a LOT more than 45 cm. We measured where it was up to on my husband as an estimate and it was around it 84 cm.
A union representing some 27,000 federal public servants is calling for a parliamentary committee to hold an inquiry into the three-day-a-week return to office mandate. https://t.co/LGXfJpeklD
Look, I don't want to get controversial on here, but don't you think that if you're going to force your workers back to the office, you should...have office space for them?
