[Kenny Yu: Father killed in North York Gen Hospital @kenny_yu]

My father Peter Yu did in
NORTH YORK GENERAL HOSPITAL
of Toronto Canada
on Sep 28 due to unhandled cardiac tamponade for over 72 hours and No telemetry and no oxygen. he died in an empty ward with no one attended.

The doctors and the hopstials have no answers and they’re still rightfully harming people everyday!!

No one told my mom he was that severe until we learnt from the medical records. My mom collapsed on the road to the hospital in a morning when she heard my father. It’s still

Up to date no mainstream media has covered.

Ahead of Carnival next weekend, we're kicking off a Jamaican patty bracket on Monday. 16 patty shops will be narrowed down to 1 favourite by reader votes. I know Toronto will never agree on one patty shop when there dozens, but for funsies let's try.

It’s time to raise our national ambition. If Mexico can launch a car company, Vietnam & Turkey too, the big leagues are being recast.

We need to want it.

We can not simply play defence all the time & expect to win. We have to get at least one puck past the line.

Go Team 🇨🇦!

[Justin Trudeau @JustinTrudeau]

Today, the United States launched a trade war against Canada: their closest partner and ally — their closest friend.

Canadians are reasonable, but we will not back down from a fight.

Not when our country is at stake.

[Flavio Volpe, C.M. @FlavioVolpe1]

Who 🇨🇦s are & how strong our resolve is can only be tested under stress.

Some of us will disappoint each other, others will emerge from the fire as the light.

Here we go.

We have some good news today. We have temporarily averted tariffs that would have severely damaged our economy, giving time for more negotiation and time for cooler heads to prevail. Thank you to the countless workers, union leaders, businesses and everyday proud Canadians who rallied together to make this happen.

With the U.S. pausing tariffs, Ontario will also pause our retaliatory measures. If President Trump proceeds with tariffs, we won’t hesitate to remove American products off LCBO shelves or ban American companies from provincial procurement.

Make no mistake, Canada and Ontario continue to stare down the threat of tariffs. Whether it’s tomorrow, in a month or a year from now when we’re renegotiating the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, President Trump will continue to use the threat of tariffs to get what he wants. We’re already feeling the impact. So long as our trading relationship with our largest trading partner is up in the air, we will continue to see many potential projects frozen and projects that were already under way put at risk.

Canada and the U.S. need to remain united and focused on the real trade war we’re fighting, with China. If we want to win, we need to fight together - not each other.

[Justin Trudeau @JustinTrudeau]

I just had a good call with President Trump. Canada is implementing our $1.3 billion border plan — reinforcing the border with new choppers, technology and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners, and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl. Nearly 10,000 frontline personnel are and will be working on protecting the border.

In addition, Canada is making new commitments to appoint a Fentanyl Czar, we will list cartels as terrorists, ensure 24/7 eyes on the border, launch a Canada- U.S. Joint Strike Force to combat organized crime, fentanyl and money laundering. I have also signed a new intelligence directive on organized crime and fentanyl and we will be backing it with $200 million.

Proposed tariffs will be paused for at least 30 days while we work together.

I drew this last November 26th knowing full well no self-respecting family newspaper in the country would be likely to print it. I was right. But given the events of this weekend, I’m gonna to let ‘er rip anyway.

[Flavio Volpe, C.M. @FlavioVolpe1]

Canada’s critical successes at very tough NAFTA negotiations with the Trump administration were led by a hard-working and strategically-minded Chrystia Freeland.

Big loss on our way into round two with a weaker hand.

Huge.

Thank you for assembling all the China EV apologists in one piece so it’s easy to find them.

Interestingly, exactly NONE of them have a job or investment in 🇨🇦 auto sector & none of them talked about WHY they are so cheap.
