Donald Trump's aggression against Canada has reminded us just how overdependent we are on the United States.

It is reminding us of just how beholden we have become to the goodwill of their billionaire oligarchs. The answer to American billionaires is not Canadian billionaires.

Canada’s response cannot simply be “Buy Canadian.” The CEO of Loblaws is still going to be happy to price gouge you on maple syrup while wearing a maple leaf hat.

Canada’s response has to be about protecting the Canadian model. About strengthening public services. About protecting our communities. And building an economy that works for workers - first and foremost.

Thanks to all those Municipal crews salting and clearing excess snowfall. Make sure you give them a honk, wave and say thank you when you see them out there making our communities safe to drive in. Thanks to all those support staff like mechanics, building service workers and maintenance crews who are repairing, cleaning and salting rec center sidewalks!
