The education of Donald Trump

This is an article that parallels my thinking.
People don't understand how Trump thinks. He is definitely a genius and has learned to talk in way that confuses his enemies. He gives us clues but does not spell everything out. He leaves it for the smarter folks to figure it out and knows the majority just will not get it..
Canadians really don't understand anything that Mr Trump has said to us.
He said that the US does not need Canadian products or resources. He also said that Canada should be a 51st state. People don't connect these two ideas but it's really clear that what he's saying.
Given the direction that Canada is moving in, cozying up to China, tolerating Chinese interference, and hosting gangs from around the world, the US can no longer trust Canada. He's telling us, subtly, that the Canadian dream of an integrated economy that we have been counting on is over. We are a foreign country and untrustworty.
He'll put up with us for a while, but we are not bedfellows any longer. It is over.
I leave it to you to figure out why he manipulated Canadians into re-electing our current government.
My guess is that we have to hit bottom before we sober up, and we are headed for rock bottom.

Berta Dad nailed it. Copied from FB.
Jeff Rath’s behaviour toward Danielle Smith is not a good look for this movement, and he does not speak for me.
When this started, I had respect for him. But as this has played out, it has become harder to ignore what appears to be a push for power inside the movement, not a sincere focus on Alberta independence.
Danielle Smith is a major reason Albertans were even able to collect signatures in the first place. Compared to any other premier in this country, I believe she has been the strongest one standing up for her province.
I will not forget her accomplishments.
She stood up for parental rights when others wanted schools keeping parents in the dark.
She took action against political ideology being pushed in classrooms.
She made sure kids got back to school when the system tried to hold families hostage.
She has strengthened Alberta Sheriffs and continued exploring ways to free Alberta from relying on the RCMP.
And that is only part of it.

REPORT: UN Climate Scientists Flip on the Climate Doomsday Narrative | Stand on Guard CLIP

WATCH Have they been lying about climate change this whole time? Are they cancelling climate change doomsday scenario for the data centers?

The UN climate scientists admit the high emission doomsday scenarios were overblown. UN climate change scientists flip: climate change not too bad anymore according to a new report. No doomsday on the horizon.

On this Stand on Guard clip, we question why the UN might be backtracking on previous dire predictions, suggesting a new agenda at play. We examine how this shift could be tied to the proliferation of data center construction and the increasing demands on our power grid from artificial intelligence. It's crucial to consider the broader implications for our communities and hold big tech accountable.

Thank you to @jimmy_dore for pointing out this...

Listening to Ganum today on the meeting that Premier Smith is having with Lukasek I am wondering why not just have his referendum on the vote in October? If enough say no to his question isn't it the same as a referendum that the other side wants? I for one want this to wake up the East and don't care how it happens. Another caller said she needs to call an provincial election in October and take the rest of questions off the ballot - this could be risky but I am leaning toward it as terrified that the NDP will get in again and right now Nemshi is their handicap IMHO.
