Alphonso Davies. Our captain. 🇨🇦

In 2000, he was born in a refugee camp in Ghana.

In 2005, his family was resettled in Canada as refugees.

In 2017, he became a Canadian citizen.

Now, he is leading our country onto the world's biggest stage.

This is the Canadian story. My heart is bursting with pride.

"The 2023 jury verdict finding that Trump sexually abused and defamed advice columnist E. Jean Carroll is now final. The president is out of courts to shop this to, and he’ll get no more appeals. And since he had to prepay the judgment and deposit it with the court — along with interest! — Carroll won’t have to wait for him to cut the check." https://t.co/8WRqvb7fI1

We have to open the Gordie Howe Bridge.

The failure to open the bridge is a stunning example of corruption under Donald Trump.

If technology becomes the ultimate criterion, the human person risks being reduced to data, a cog in a machine or a commodity. If, however, technology is integrated with a wise perspective, it can become an instrument of growth, justice and fraternity. #MagnificaHumanitas

The USA remains at the table with Canada and Mexico.

The 2019 agreement contemplated for exactly this path so that partners could stay together while working on the terms.

They did not trigger an exit clause though any partner could. This was a conscious decision.

Carry on.

110 years ago today, more than 800 Newfoundlanders went into battle at Beaumont-Hamel. More than 700 were killed, wounded, or went missing in a single day. Despite their horrific losses, the Newfoundland Regiment fought in World War I until 1918.

Today, as we celebrate the greatest country on Earth, we remember all those who served and sacrificed so that we could live in freedom and peace.
