The US embassy in Copenhagen removed 44 flags honoring Danish soldiers killed in Afghanistan. The flags had been placed after President Donald Trump criticized allies' military contributions. Hundreds of new flags were later put up in response.

Another striking figure from that Leger poll: the Liberals are at 35 per cent in Alberta. In Alberta. The last time the Liberals won that much of the vote in Alberta was in 1968. That's higher than other recent polls, but not by much. Abacus has them at 32 per cent; Liaison

There is an old word to describe going to a foreign power and asking for their assistance in breaking up a sovereign country — it’s treason. Canadians are standing together in defence of this beautiful land. 🇨🇦

This train was carrying men and women going about their lives. Civilians. Striking them violates international law. Those responsible must be held accountable. Russia must face sustained pressure, and Ukraine must receive continued support to defend its people and Europe’s peace.

Today, Russia struck a passenger train in the Kharkiv region with attack drones. In any country, a drone strike on a civilian train would be regarded in the same way – purely as an act of terrorism. There would be no doubt about the classification, neither in Europe, nor in

Forceful and welcome words from @MichealMartinTD against a backdrop of unprecedented anti-semitism in Ireland. As a (southern) Irish unionist I've always appreciated Micheal Martin's commitment to pluralism on that front, and it's needed on this front now, more than ever. ☘️

Hey @realDonaldTrump - keep your lectures about China to yourself as you keep doing your business with China. We’ll go ahead and do our responsible export sales of our canola seeds and lobsters to support Canadian workers.

Russia’s main targets right now are our energy sector, critical infrastructure, and residential buildings. This week alone, the Russians have launched more than 1,700 attack drones, over 1,380 guided aerial bombs, and 69 missiles of various types. Every massive attack by Russia

Approval on immigration had been a comparative bright spot for Trump. But there has been a persistent decline over the past few months and today almost certainly makes that worse. He's losing the normies not just the libs.

“If he can get a trade deal with China he should do that.” So we do that and there’s a 100% tariff threat. Don’t ever back down to a bully who is an incoherent and dishonest “partner” who changes his demands from hour to hour. Keep moving forward. Canada first. Canada always.

18 months ago, I'd never have imagined I'd be retweeting @jkenney on a regular basis! But he's consistently been one of our smartest and most incisive commentators on Trump, and how Canada must uphold its sovereignty. So, three cheers from this leftie! 🇨🇦 👏

Just days ago: “if he can get a deal with China that’s a good thing. He should do that.” Today’s tariff temper tantrum has nothing to do with China, and everything to do with Trump’s fragile ego being upstaged by Carney at Davos. Trump has: - sought and made his own deals with
