PEI is worth the visit if you're in the area. I moved here 5 years ago. It's really nice.

Dear USA,

Your grandpa is loose in the garden again. He's clearly confused. He just took his pants off, is rubbing dog poo on his head, and mumbling something about tariffs.

Please come get him as soon as possible.

Thanks,

Canada.

Canada is going to come out of this stronger thanks to Trump. We're working on improving our in-country trade right now. We're well liked in European circles and might end up in the EU. We're building trade with other countries. I'm feeling pretty positive about our future without the US.

If the US continues to descend into madness, we're going to be the country the USA brain drain ends up in. That will only help us.

Of course all of this depends on if the US decides to not go all Russia on us - which is going to wreck both countries.

In the article

As a Canadian, I’m reeling from the unraveling of a relationship I once believed to be unshakeable — a bond between our two nations that felt secure and enduring.

It's about the breakdown between two long time allies by one want-to-be US dictator working in the interested of Russia.

This is a historic moment. The US and Canada will never be the same again.

Maybe we need some tariffs against the USA until they clean up their act along the border?

Is that a finger in the butt?

I treat my yard as a natural meadow the best I can. I only mow once or twice a year and we're slowly pushing out the grass previously planted. I dislike the look of a traditional boomer suburbia yard. I much prefer the wild look.

We don't rake at all. I prefer to just let things do their thing and I'm also far too lazy to bother raking. We live in an area surrounded by woods.

We have snakes and foxes and hares that come out of the woods from time to time. A ton of birds. It's perfect.

There is a silly movement in Canada like this now. They want to call the Americano the Canadiano. I think it's silly.

My company is about to start serving espresso. I'm going to call it a North Americano on the menu just to be snarky.

Trumps don't pay debts though.

Musk is insufferable. I've been waiting for the Trump/Musk lover affair to end. This might be some of it.

I would LOVE for Trump to go all anti Musk and cancel SpaceX. I seriously think this is in the future and it's going to be glorious.

There are a ton of really cheap Chinese IP cameras out there. Those are less secure then ring or wyze cameras.

100%. The USA is absolutely not to be trusted. It is a friend to itself only.

Canada should cancel the order and invest in nukes and drones.

Agreed. Better to make it a month or two. This gives you time to find replacement companies and then hopefully never return to Amazon.

I lived most of my life in areas where fireflies were around, but they weren't the bioluminescent type,

The house I moved to about 5 years ago is in the woods and 3 months out of the year these guys buzz around my front yard and I've even helped a few out of the house.

They never fail to bring a smile to my face.

As a Canadian, I read that conservative reply and just think "Holy shit is this a dumb fucking American."

I'm really glad that these are the types of Americans that don't cross the border because that means leaving their emotional support gun at home.

I've always had a manual car. I love them. That is until I ended up dating a younger woman and we moved in together. Several years later the manual turned into the second car only I drove. That got sold and we now have two cars she can drive.

One day I might teach her how to drive manual. We live in a really flat area with no major hills, so it shouldn't be a problem. One day maybe,

I think it should be legal to hunt bald eagles in Canada.

Ok, I don't really. I just think it would be funny watching the faces of MAGA as Trudeau announces it's now legal to shoot them.

Bald eagles make a wimpy little squeak sound.

I think any retaliatory tariffs from Canada need to be a minimum of 30 days.

I wonder what's going to happen with NORAD?

I don't know how that information is shared, but I would think the US would be more in danger without our RADAR and systems to the north.
