You know that citrus fruit isn’t the only way to get vitamin C, right?

But… we can. We have been for decades.

Canada can’t grow lettuce and apples? Since when? We’ve been buying BC and Ontario fruit for decades. There are backyard apple varieties developed in Saskatchewan and Manitoba that are hardy to zone 3 and 2. Lettuce can be and is grown in hothouses in winter around the Redcliff area in Alberta. (Not to mention, it’s not hard to grow in your living room under grow lights.)

Now, off to pick some raspberries and tomatoes in my Saskatchewan back yard.

But, but, some guy in the Globe and Mail comments told me that they are only picking up criminals and there is no need to worry! /s

Okanagan wine is better anyway.

What a surprise! /s

At least two Canadian toddlers have been held in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody this year, including one who was detained for 51 days, more than double the legal detention period for migrant children in the United States, a Globe and Mail analysis of American enforcement data shows.

The children, who are under the age of four, were both detained at a remote Texas facility that has been the subject of a legal complaint alleging inadequate access to safe drinking water, medical care and legal assistance. At the time of detention, they appear to have been accompanied by adults who were also apprehended.

The toddlers are among 149 Canadians ranging between two and 77 years old who have been held at some point in ICE custody since January, when President Donald Trump took office and ordered an expansive immigration crackdown.

I had to cut off his access. He kept trolling the bird subs with comments like “Looks delicious!”

I have a boycat. He’s snoozing on the sofa next to me.

What happens when you elect the alligator to drain the swamp it lives in? Such a mystery. 🤔

The reason behind the buffalo’s attack on the trackers remains unclear>

Well, just a wild guess, but “These creatures are shooting at me and want to kill me” sounds like a pretty good reason.

Some are already trying to reverse child labour laws. Why spend money educating poor kids when you can just put them to work?

Is it wrong to hope that he someday finds himself destitute and homeless?

Holy crap. The fascism is happening even faster than I imagined.

I bought stocks of Ballard Power years ago when hydrogen cells were going to be The Next Big Thing. Not many stocks thankfully, because it slipped further and further and then got delisted. It seems to be one of those things like airships that gets revived every 20 years or so.
