"On this day in 1980, the Canadian government and Canadian officials in Iran (who protected the Americans for two months at great risk to themselves), with some assistance from the CIA, rescued six Americans in hiding in Tehran, Iran"
There I fixed it for you.

KINEW: "Wow, all this referendum talk makes me want to have a referendum, too, except in Manitoba, the question is going to be: Do you want to stay a part of Canada? And the two choices are going to be: Yeah, and Heck, yeah."

The first Canadian soldiers killed in Afghanistan were four members of the 3rd Battalion, Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry, who died on April 17, 2002, in a friendly-fire incident at Tarnak Farm. A U.S. F-16 pilot mistakenly bombed the Canadian troops during a night training exercise.

The four soldiers—Private Nathan Lloyd Smith, Corporal Ainsworth Dyer, Sergeant Marc Daniel Léger, and Private Richard Green—were killed, while eight other Canadians were seriously injured in the tragedy.

CAF Cpl Karine Blais was blown to pieces when the vehicle she was in struck a hidden IED on the front line north of Kandahar City, Afghanistan on Apr-13-2009, while apparently doing sweet fuck all for the United States of America.

She was just 21 years old. 🙏

Now more than ever, Canada keep boycotting the US. We do not take kindly to your threats @realDonaldTrump @RapidResponse47, so fuck you!! #BoycottUSA 🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦🍁

[Shahn Khalfan @ShahnKhalfan]

@realDonaldTrump has zero authority over Canada’s trade. Threatening “100% tariffs” is reckless, arrogant, and an insult to Canadian sovereignty.
The hypocrisy is staggering: the U.S. freely trades with China while trying to bully its closest neighbor.
This is the final straw. Canada will not be intimidated. A full boycott of American goods is justified and necessary.

Why Mark Carney didn’t chase the puck at Davos

Before central banks and boardrooms, Mark Carney was a competitive hockey player. A sport that teaches you early that if you’re not skating with intent, you’re probably about to be checked. That instinct showed at Davos.

In a week full of speeches urging caution, flexibility and optionality, Carney made a more uncomfortable argument. That in periods of structural change - climate, geopolitics, technology - trying to sit it out is not neutrality. It’s exposure. If you’re not shaping the transition, you’re likely to be shaped by it.
In other words, if you’re not at the table, you’re on the menu. That was the courage in the speech.

He didn’t tell leaders to wait for clarity. He argued that waiting is itself a decision, and often the riskiest one. That capital, institutions and governments need to commit to direction even when the path isn’t frictionless, because drift favours disruption, not stability. It’s a bold message in a room built around optionality.

What made it land was the way it was delivered. Calm, measured, unhurried, but not hedged. He wasn’t floating ideas. He was stating a reality. The conviction was in the framing. Long-term risk is being mispriced because too many leaders are mistaking caution for prudence.

His background explains that posture. Crisis management teaches you that reassurance without action is dangerous. And hockey teaches you that failing to engage doesn’t keep you safe. It just guarantees you’ll absorb impact on someone else’s terms.

In a Davos week heavy on positioning, that combination of composure and courage felt energising. It sounded like leadership willing to accept trade-offs rather than postpone them. The result was a speech people didn’t just listen to, but reflected on.

Because at moments of uncertainty, leadership isn’t about motion for its own sake, it’s about choosing where to play. And knowing exactly when not to chase the puck.

@RiskyPrediction @WeAreCanProud Bwahaha.

@NYSoul2x @Harry__Faulkner Jaysus. Check your facts. Trump said he didn’t need an agreement with Canada. That was weeks ago. You think he was coming to the table in good faith!? All Carney said was when your best friend turns into an @&$!hole, it’s time to diversify your friend group.

Tonight, at least in this moment, the Prime Minister of Canada is the leader of the free world.

Mark Carney delivered not just the best speech a Canadian PM has ever delivered - it was the most important speech delivered by a Western leader for this century.

He defined this century.

I think Mark Carney had that speech inside him for a long time. It was his destiny.

[🇨🇦 Henri A 🇨🇦 @HenriAGS]

Mark Carney just delivered Canada's version of Churchill's "we shall never surrender"

I'm so fuckin proud I helped elect this man. I knew he'd be a competent leader, but he's exceeded every expectation

He's the bulwark against the rising tide of fascism. Canada is ready! 🇨🇦

[Mark Carney @MarkJCarney]

In an era of great power rivalry, Canada is choosing to be principled and pragmatic. To name reality, to act together, and to build what we claim to believe in.

@4432Bruce @BillKristol There will be a tirade. Thanks to Carney’s leadership and courage we’ll all have the strength to ford it.
