Morning. Calgary-Shaw: more of this. No to 9. Yes to stay. Bell proposes a $50B sovereign data hub. I wrote about why that matters. Trump dropped salt tariff. Needed us after all. Alert Bay’s pole came down. Its people stand. Poilievre’s misinformation isn’t opposition. It’s noise. Smarten up. ☕🇨🇦
Morning. Canada pitches stability to global investors. "We have what the world wants.", PM Carney. Ireland saved its whiskey. Maith sibh! Russia hit the Kyiv–Warsaw train; Trump scolded Ukraine. Canada eyes an EU Ukraine loan, not membership. Sovereign-site post is up. Coffee on. ☕🇨🇦
Someone asked where I host my site. Fair question, given how much I write about Canadian sovereignty. The answer: it’s more Canadian than it was, less sovereign than I’d like, and still has a few foreign cables attached. So I opened the box. “Assembled in Canada.”
