Canadian. Boat against the current. Bollards. Apparently some people follow my tweets. Just don't call me late for dinner.

Oh no! Such an accomplished author and actor! I love his books. A bleak and sarcastic - but ever so gentle - sense of observational humour. He targeted life's absurdity so well. A true honorable man. RIP.
Graham Greene has died. A Canadian acting icon, he earned an Oscar nomination for his role as Kicking Bird in Dances With Wolves. He also won a Grammy, Gemini and Canadian Screen Award, along with the Governor General's Performing Arts Award.

Why I love Margaret Atwood. Read her early stuff.
Here's a piece of literature by me, suitable for seventeen-year-olds in Alberta schools, unlike -- we are told -- The Handmaid's Tale. (Sorry, kids; your Minister of Education thinks you are stupid babies.) . John and Mary were both very, very good children. They never picked.

These people are taking jobs away from unemployed Americans. It's probably work that had been done by those now in #ICE detention. Because citizens wouldn't lower themselves to the work. #GodBlessAmerica.
National guardner?. National Park Service workers laid off, and now the National Guard is doing landscaping in DC. Felon Trump really turned soldiers into gardeners.

Someday, "they" will come for @JDVance , that "Catholic" of righteousness and entitlements. And it won't be the #left.
It is shocking to me that so many left wing politicians attack the idea of prayer in response to a tragedy. Literally no one thinks prayer is a substitute for action. We pray because our hearts are broken and we believe that God is listening.

People without a wry sense of humour are usually unsophisticated uneducated and unable to discern right from wrong. #Trump #GodBlessAmerica #MAGA However, having fun at the expense of others is a waste of time, politics-wise. #StayClassy 🇺🇸 #America.
They still don’t get it.

What utter tosh, @KristiNoem . "Difficult," ha! Don't ever wonder why #Canada doesn't roll over and let y'all in our most private places. #uspolitics #usa Get lost and have some #respect. #kristinoem.
Secty of Homeland Sec. Kristi Noem, requested the Govt of Canada to share background info on CDN citizens, access to our data systems, under the excuse that it would reveal who were drug traffickers. PM Justin Trudeau refused these intrusive requests, they called him difficult.
