   I infer by your spelling and the fact that you’re on this website that you’re probably Canadian too.

   We are stuck with the neighbours we have, which means the one that is now threatening us and belittling us every week.

   Well past time for us to decouple. Free trade among the provinces, applying to join the EU and refusing to share intel with countries that support Russia and threaten us seem like good starts.

   Boycott any voluntary expenditures to US companies. Buy Canadian liquor and look for alternative sources of other items. Diversify our capabilities to export petroleum products.

   The US is in the process of abandoning not just Ukraine, but the concept of freedom.

   If we want to keep our own freedom and try to keep the idea alive for future generations, we need to step up and do what we can to lead what is left of the free world.

   It’s the “black ops” center for the Cormorant? For a certain value of “black.”

   Transgender people exist and have human rights.

   There is absolutely room for debate about whether transgender people should be allowed the privilege, not the right, of participating in sports that are literally defined by gender, “women’s” and “men’s,” and in which biological realities suggest that the privileges of the majority should outweigh the privileges of the minority, but that’s about it.

   Re. bathrooms, just put locking full-size doors on the toilets.

   The political “right” doesn’t even have the ability to produce testosterone, or it would stand up for some of the principles it’s allegedly been interested in all these years, like preventing tyrants from dominating eastern Europe.

   Reagan used to be revered by the right for winning the Cold War and setting the stage for freedom in, just as an example, for instance, Ukraine.

   Today’s Wrong wants to let a Russian tyrant who “thinks the fall of the USSR was a catastrophe” (VVP) do “whatever he wants,” (DJT) and “doesn’t care what happens.” (JDV)

   “I met our enemies in Riyadh, and they are worms.” – Since every other piece of logic used by the Russian tyrant matches the logic of a well-known Austrian German, I’m looking for this quote to appear shortly.

   Today’s American “right” wants to invade Greenland and “use economic force” to annex Canada.

   Freedom matters and the American Right has built its brand on caring about it. It’s unbelievable to watch today’s American Right work so hard to sell it out so thoroughly, you cowardly wusses.

   Watch out for us Canadians. We speak softly, but we learn how to use big sticks (with sharp blades) early in life.

   He was a runner-up for Tank McNamara’s Sports Jerk of the Year this year.

   I suppose he could come back next year to try to win it.

   Dad used to head up a university department, so they indeed did call him the Department Chair. Then, when he retired, they gave him a chair.

    She’s a remarkable athlete, avoiding those Acme Instant Holes below her feet.

    I believe I’m qualified as an expert on those. They never work the way Acme says they do.
