โ€œThat memo written for the US Chamber of Commerce implored corporations and oligarchs to be โ€œfar more aggressiveโ€ in influencing the political system, which he feared was becoming far too responsive to popular demands for the regulation of business.โ€

This document would tear our current government apart and make us all workers of the rich, whether we want to or not.

I wish I was being sarcastic

BTW, never drink Coors.

Hello fellow Canadians.

I have followed up last week's email to our Minister of Justice requesting that the Canadian government take steps against Elon Musk and X and join in support of Brazil's ban of X and to do likewise here in Canada. X and Elon Musk pose a clear and present danger to our politics, our values and our security.

I encourage all Canadians to do the same.
