Dear humans around the world:

That thunderclap you just heard came from Gander, Newfoundland.

At 92 years old, Jean Chretien just gave the speech of his life.

With the most memorable, important words of his life.

Because he speaks for what most Canadians are feeling in our stomachs and hearts today, better than anyone else could.

God bless him. God bless Canada.

Today is the birthday of one of Ukraine’s greatest modern poets, Lina Kostenko🎂

Let’s celebrate it by listening to this beautiful rendition of her poem Wings by one of Britain’s greatest modern actors and screenwriters, Emma Thompson.

Happy birthday, Lina!

Bill Burr is baffled by how Elon Musk "gives a shout out to Hitler" yet "still has a job" and support.

“What I don’t get is the amount of veterans, people in the armed services, that died to stop Hitler. Then this guy comes in, you know, and does that [salute], while being an immigrant too which is… the whole thing, none of it tracks. How you can be like support the troops — America love it or leave it — and then guy this comes in and gives a shoutout to Hitler... I’m not trashing Republicans. All Republicans did not Sieg Heil. That guy did and I was just amazed that all liberals had was one day of outrage. Then they’re like, ‘Oh, I guess that didn’t work.’ And I guess we just kind of move on.”

Oh, hey there. Sit down. Read this. Try not to cry.

And no, I’m not ignoring the problem.

I wish the Canadian press would stop with the useless updates about Trumpelstilskin and his ever changing moods on anything and everything.

There is no material change coming.

Close the windows and lock the door!

N.B. Of course I know they can’t stop reporting.

BREAKING: Russia might be devastated! It looks like Europe is stepping up in a major way, potentially committing $732 billion in additional aid to Ukraine—nearly 2.5 times the total global support Ukraine has received since the war began.

If this happens, it would deal a crippling blow to Russia’s war efforts, significantly strengthening Ukraine’s defenses. Unlike Trump, who appears eager to accommodate Putin, European leaders recognize the stakes and are standing firmly for democracy and sovereignty.

President of Finland Alexander Stubb:

"Finland supports the Constitution of Ukraine and democratically elected President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky.

I strongly disagree with President Trump's statements, invasion of Ukraine is a imperialistic war that russia started"

[Boris Johnson @BorisJohnson]

When are we Europeans going to stop being scandalised about Donald Trump and start helping him to end this war?

Of course Ukraine didn’t start the war. You might as well say that America attacked Japan at Pearl Harbor.

Of course a country undergoing a violent invasion should not be staging elections. There was no general election in the UK from 1935 to 1945.

Of course Zelenskyy’s ratings are not 4%. They are actually about the same as Trump’s.

Trump’s statements are not intended to be historically accurate but to shock Europeans into action.

In particular the US can see $300bn of frozen Russian assets - mainly in Belgium. That is cash that could and should be used to pay Ukraine and compensate the US for its support.

Why is Europe preventing the unfreezing of Putin’s cash?

The US believes Belgium, France and other countries are blocking. It’s absurd. We need to get serious and fast.

[Mike Pence @Mike_Pence]

Mr. President, Ukraine did not “start” this war. Russia launched an unprovoked and brutal invasion claiming hundreds of thousands of lives. The Road to Peace must be built on the Truth.🇺🇸🇺🇦

@cityoftoronto Please clear the streets that haven’t seen any service BEFORE the next storm hits.

[Peter Holowatenko 🇨🇦🇺🇦 @pjholowatenko]

@AllanBSportsFan @311Toronto And maybe @cityoftoronto can take a look at a Montréal or other city playbook too for improving snow removal.

[Peter Holowatenko 🇨🇦🇺🇦 @pjholowatenko]

@311Toronto Seriously @cityoftoronto it’s been well over 24 hours and streets south of St Clair, north of Davenport, west of Old Weston and east of Caledonia have NOT been cleared. Even once. Sidewalks are challenging to traverse. Get to it before the next storm just hits!

[Peter Holowatenko 🇨🇦🇺🇦 @pjholowatenko]

What the hell @UPexpress !!! The train made it from Pearson to Bloor Station and the damn doors didn’t open. I don’t want to go to Union Station!!

@RogersHelps Can’t tell if it’s a local area outage or larger. Toronto, St.Clair/Old Weston Road. No Internet and dependant services for the past 90+ minutes (as of 22:31ET.) Can’t login to MyRogers account either. On hold for 25mins now waiting to speak with a person.
