Lately I've felt compelled to share my thoughts and clarifications on "X"; I should have known better. Uncivil responses earn an automatic block. Slava Ukraini!

@uwishukneweh @TheJoeySwoll When my wife was going to give birth, I considered it my responsibility to know the symptoms of postpartum, so I could recognize if she needed professional help. (Thankfully she didn’t.) I don’t need to understand what the experience is like to be part of the solution.

this is an incredible film, definitely worth watching if you get the chance.

@FozonCapital @atrupar "The people we attacked are fighting back. No fair!"

[Happy Dad 🇨🇦🇺🇦 @hickek]

@atrupar The word "retaliation" implies that the other side is the initial aggressor, so if Canada has retaliated...

To paraphrase his words – "Only two countries have fought back against the US's economic attacks." That's not the knock against Canada he seems to think it is.

@annwmac @MrJoKeR604 I’m from Saskatchewan. They apparently forgot we and Manitoba exist.

@GordFan2023 @RodneyNielsen11 @sarobertson_ Again, and again, and again....

MAGA motto is "When you don't have an actual point, feign ignorance and lie." (Not sure about the "feigning" part though.)

@CapitalCronik @RodneyNielsen11 @sarobertson_ I guarantee he knows this. I've seen this particular correction posted a hundred times; they are aware, but they choose to pretend they are being wronged. It's the political equivalent of flopping in soccer. It's their thing now.

@pjmah @paulg So all those students who cheated and all got close to 100% are all the same in ability? You could hire any one of them and they'd all be the same? If that that is the correct outlook, then why bother with a college grad at all? Hire a grade 8 kid. (Why even bother with a human?)

@mrmikeMTL Pretty much did that for free in uni. Ran out of money in the last month, and all I had was a large sack of white rice left for about three weeks. Luckily, had some soya sauce and salad dressing to punch it up. (Didn't tell my parents as I had been less than prudent with my $.)

‼️ZELENSKYY: It’s just nonsense that, in today’s world, production hasn’t been scaled to the level needed to protect people from ballistic terror. Ukraine can manufacture it; it just needs a license from the U.S.

“We've shown all our partners both the necessity and, importantly, the possibility of providing greater protection for life. It's just nonsense that in today's world, production hasn't been set up to the extent actually needed to protect people from ballistic terror. We've been calling for a while and proven that we can produce, especially such a range of defensive weapons. If Ukraine got licenses from America to produce the Patriot, our production would be enough to protect Ukraine and help partners in need” - Ukrainian President on Monday, July 6, 2026.

WOW, absolute 🔥 from @canmnt's coach, US citizen Jesse Marsch.

Americans who think like this: we still love you guys ♥️!

This is not your parents’ Conservative Party — And Brian Mulroney agrees.

I love these videos that @MarkGerretsen is putting out. Sadly, but for good reason, he's not using Twitter any more.

@PierrePoilievre I don't know if you have a point, but your personal brand has become so toxic my immediate reflex it to not believe anything you say. Time to pack it in and let someone else take over. (They can start by promoting ways to improve Canada, rather than complaining "Mark Carney...".)

[Happy Dad 🇨🇦🇺🇦 @hickek]

@EODHappyCaptain American is awesome; it always has been in so many ways. It's your leadership's foreign policy (& associated rhetoric) that rankles. Those two are separate things.

[Happy Dad 🇨🇦🇺🇦 @hickek]

@KellyBlockmp Is that all you got? How about trying to build consensus and write legislation that will get bipartisan support to help Canadians? You know; your job. (I suggest looking into "dynamic pricing".) Weren't you once voted a parliamentary "rising star"? What have you done since then?

[Happy Dad 🇨🇦🇺🇦 @hickek]

@HVincent84 @RonFilipkowski I heard they are going to launch some drones at Ukraine... oh, wait...

[Happy Dad 🇨🇦🇺🇦 @hickek]

@SethAbramson If possible, the US needs to start building a way to neutralize this advantage. I’m thinking pipelines and new port facilities to bypass the strait. Probably crazy expensive and will take years, but has to be less than $300B. They broke the system, they should fix it.
