Any Canadian business that uses embedded Google Maps maps had better reconsider that right now. globalnews.ca/news/12041171/go…
Google previously said people in Canada would see Lake Ontario displayed on its Maps application, while it would say Lake America for people in the U.S.Sean Previl (Global News)
Please sign this official e-petition to call on the government to properly enforce the Canada Health Act and to properly fund public health care in Canada. Ontario and Alberta have allowed aspects of privatization of health care within their provinces, and this should be stopped.

@pluralistic has written about this. We have economic weapons. We need leaders with the courage and strategic sense to use them.
A winning trade war strategy for Canada medium.com/@doctorow/https-plu…
Now that we're at trade war, individual acts and solidarity-building are important, and they include pushing our governments to do things we can't do individually, such as pushing for independence from the US-owned credit card and money-transfer systems, US -owned oil and gas companies, US-owned news and social media, etc.So far, Carney and most of the premiers have been decidedly weak on the big picture parts.
Some after coffee thoughts on the collapse of U.S. - Canada trade talks. (Rant incomming)
This document is all over the news this morning, and shared widely on #MastodonCanada. Some were surprised by the collapse of discussions, primarily media and businesses, but there was a slim chance of ever achieving a deal.

We have recognised from the beginning that America has changed, and that we will not return to our old relationship. Our government understood, before many, that America is altering all its trade relationships.Prime Minister of Canada
Should Canada go on offense and implement an export tax on oil and gas exports on September 1st?
(This is my personal idea, not anything I have heard considered officially yet)

I was really expecting two possibilities from these negotiations:
- The USA leaves the table
- Canadian government plays the elbows gone stratey
This is a plot twist!

Je m'attendais vraiment à deux scénarios de ces négociations:
- Les États-Unis quittent la table
- Le gouvernement canadien joue la stratégie sans colonne vertébrale
C’est un film de drame
Some of the things that might have been in the alleged offer are listed in this article.

government knows it is climate change.
they know it is CO2.
they know it is fossil fuels.
Continuing to invest in fossil fuels is a choice politicians have made to prioritize fossil fuel corporations over the safety and health of people and communities.
we myst vote for politicians who refuse this pattern.
"We know that with climate change, we’re seeing a wide range of worsening hazards, including wildfire seasons becoming longer and more severe. That means to stay safe, people should prepare for emergencies year-round. For those who may be at risk of an evacuation in the coming days, I urge you to have a grab-and-go bag packed and ready for each member of your household, including pets,” said Greene at a news conference Tuesday to provide and update on the wildfire and drought conditions in B.C."
