Happy to share my latest article with you all:
"Failure to Launch: Canadian Federal Government Attempts at Memorialising the Second World War, 1945-1967" https://t.co/mR9rbP2CL7
I look at why there's no national Second World War memorial in Canada.
It’s crystal clear now that Trump has lost control of this war. He badly misjudged Iran’s ability to retaliate. The region is on fire.
1/ I’m going to explain to you in this🧵what I’ve learned - in part from closed door briefings - about the four biggest current crises.
@Lauraonthettc@ColinDMello It'll just make the Island airport too busy. The reason it works now is because it handles smaller numbers of people. Imagine Pearson, or even 40% of Pearson, on the Island. Yuck!
Can you help us identify these 2 mystery war memorials? We believe they are in the same church/building and have a clue that ‘Kingsthorpe’ is written on the back of the original photos. Please let us know here or on [email protected]
@nic_lucc I was told today that I dont do enough work to merit being full time and that I would be questioned about my job description at the AGM next week
#HamOnt Congratulations to Christ’s Church Cathedral on your 150th Anniversary.
It was an absolute privilege to be with you yesterday, alongside The Honourable Edith Dumont, to share the @cityofhamilton’s recognition with Bishop Susan Bell and Dean Tim Dobbin as you marked this remarkable milestone.
For 150 years, Christ’s Church Cathedral has been a spiritual anchor in downtown Hamilton, a place where faith meets service, leadership is grounded in compassion, and the doors have always remained open to the wider community.
More than its history, the Cathedral’s enduring presence continues to bring people together in moments of joy, uncertainty, and change, reinforcing the values of dignity, inclusion, and responsibility that strengthen our city.
Congratulations on this extraordinary Anniversary, and thank you for 150 years of care, compassion, and service to Hamiltonians.
That there are four #ICE offices in Canada - in Ottawa, Calgary, Montreal, & Vancouver - is not only morally reprehensible but a public security issue.
They are not law enforcement; they're the paramilitary branch of a fascist leader.
Their operations in Canada must be ended.
NATO countries with the highest soldier losses per capita in Afghanistan (2001–2021):
1️⃣ Denmark 🇩🇰
2️⃣ United Kingdom 🇬🇧
3️⃣ Estonia 🇪🇪
4️⃣ Canada 🇨🇦
5️⃣ United States 🇺🇸
The first 4 Canadian soldiers who died in Afghanistan were killed by an American F-16 dropping a bomb on them, believing they were Taliban.
Canadians were on the front lines.
Trump knows "behind the lines", as a 5 times draft dodger.
Without a doubt, the time has now come for Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom to rise and stand together on the global stage.
Our shared values, history, and unbreakable spirit demand a true CANZUK alliance - now more than ever. The world has changed considerably in recent times, and our nations continually face hostile rhetoric and actions from the United States, China, Russia and Iran. While sovereign and independent, we cannot continue to act in isolation if we are to protect the values and freedoms our nations were founded on.
Together, we are an unstoppable force: innovative, resilient, and ready to shape a brighter future for the world. If we don't seize this moment now, we risk losing our chance to show our collective strength.
It's now or never for CANZUK to be a vision of hope, prosperity and opportunity for our citizens and the world. 🇨🇦🇦🇺🇳🇿🇬🇧
John Miller: If you're confronted by a moving vehicle that could be a threat to you, get out of the way. I'm reading to you from DHS policy; 'DHS law enforcement officers are prohibited from discharging firearms at the operator of a moving vehicle or other conveyance.'
