@ameerfarooq Robots are still a rare thing in Canadian general surgery practice. At least that’s the reality in Calgary.

@DerrickEvans4WV You know what this would cost in Canada? 😱

“The current focus on tariffs is masking the more serious threats to our sovereignty and our resultant place in the world; I fear that Canada risks becoming a ‘strategic orphan.’”

“We are being intentionally isolated, economically weakened, and psychologically prepared for some form of future coercion or capitulation. Our national and provincial leaders have concluded that this is an all-out assault on our way of life. We need to accept that reality.”

[Justin Trudeau @JustinTrudeau]

Good to have you back.

[Craig Baird - Canadian History Ehx @CraigBaird]

In 1890, the Tariff Act came into place in the United States. It placed tariffs on imports of up to 50%.
While touted as a way to build American industry, there was also the hope it would force an annexation of Canada. It backfired.
Let's learn more.

Stephen Fry, "The bullies have risen to the top"

"I call it fascism because that's what it is"

"It's a cult of power, and a cult of warrior worship, and a total contempt for the old world order"

"You have to remember the psychology of the bully at school"

"Bullies feast on the fears that they cause"

"Look at who Trump admires.. Putin's Russia.. Places moving towards fascism, nationalism, and they don't listen to people like Starmer"

"Starmer will be called a nice guy by Trump until he says something which expresses his support for Ukraine, something which he has to do, and then he'll be slapped down and Trump will say: I thought he was nasty"

"It's bullying, it's fascism, and we have to realign ourselves in recognition that this is no longer the proper world"
