Odd that a story like this should appear only in foreign media. I've been waiting for Canadian MSM to explore how CF veterans feel about the contempt in which they are held by the Trump admin. Good to see someone's done the work. theguardian.com/us-news/2026…

‘Spit on our sacrifice’: Canadian veterans fume after Trump and allies take jibes at military

Military families say Trump officials ‘owe us an apology’ after disparaging remarks by JD Vance, Pete Hegseth and others

Je tiens a féliciter Paul St-Pierre Plamondon pour son élection comme premier ministre du Québec. Nous sommes prêts à collaborer pour continuer de bâtir le Québec, défendre nos industries et protéger nos travailleurs, particulièrement dans ces temps de guerre tarifaire.

Plamondon is surprisingly diplomatic. He speaks to English Canadians in Québec, saying he will be Premier for all Quebeckers. He is a very different type of Leader than a Jacques Parizeau, more like Lucien Bouchard, a dreamer. #cdnpoli

Great news that Harbourfront Centre in #Toronto has a new, high profile CEO. Gideon Arthurs! Known to the Toronto arts & culture scene, a great fan of Harbourfront, he sent his kids to summer camp there. He knows the space, knows the vibe, and will be a great leader. #topoli
