The US is threatening #Canada (again) if we don't but their F-35s. Here's what Denmark said about the ones they bought, and regret buying:
"They're in for repairs about half the time or even more," he said, "so the Americans have all the power of actually destroying our air force just by shutting down [parts] supplies."

Good to see @avilewis joining the ranks of Canadian politicians on the fediverse. The more politicians and journalists who move here away from US tech, the better!
And a great politician for us to get, too! IMO, it's all about the public options. That is the only way we can combat Capitalist monopoly. Avi is the one major political leader or candidate who is putting this public ownership forward in a real way.
The Canadian Political Fediverse is growing!
Avi Lewis @avilewis joined today!
He joins NDP leadership candidates @votetanille and @tonymcquailgreenprogressive!
Add in BC Greens @mlabotterell and @emilylowan
And the pioneer of them all! Senator Simons! @Paulatics
Now if we can just get parties and governments to create their own instances so people can be confident they are authentic and we can grow the #socialweb!
More!

Hello Mastodon!
I’m Avi Lewis, and I’m running to be the next leader of the federal NDP. Very excited to be part of the Fediverse!
I’m running for NDP leader because it’s time for the NDP to return to its roots—fighting a system rigged for the rich that leaves the rest of us behind.
We can build a Canada based on care instead of greed, but only if we do it together. There are only 4 days left to join the NDP so you can vote in the leadership race, so get your membership before Jan 28th and let’s fight for a government that serves the many, not the money.

Please try to remember that this isn't a US centric place. There's so many of us here who don't live in & not citizens of USA. Please leave USA exceptionalism shit, on your USA doorsteps. The rest of us have to deal with that US arrogance, when we have zero controls over US elections & their results. The rest of us, globally, have suffered under all of your governments' shitty choices - DNC & GOP - both are part n parcel of evil empire. We are fucking pissed off & have been for a long time, about that.
Many US folks have opted to be loyal to one or the other political parties with most public powers. US citizens don't seem to understand as much about how international citizens are affected by their domestic politics. There's still too many US citizens who still believe that US is centre of the world - when it's untrue. There's still too much US arrogance & myopicness happening in 2026.
I see all of that & am glad to not be in USA. I see all of that & I'm worried about the most marginalized, targeted. I see all of that & can't stay still but inspired to take more actions to support, from Canada.
#Humanity has no borders.
Vegas taking a 27% cut by valuing the Canadian dollar at par is giving me the giggles - this is bordering on one of the most successful boycotts in history - FAFO you fucking US fascists - we are NEVER coming back

"With respect to Denmark, Denmark is a tiny country with a tiny economy and a tiny military. They cannot defend Greenland. They cannot control the territory of Greenland.
"Under every understanding of law that has existed about territorial control for 500 years, to control a territory you have to be able to defend a territory, improve territory, inhabit a territory…
"Denmark has failed on every single one of these tests."

The civil war has already started. We're already losing. What are we waiting for, a declaration of war or secession? The fascists STARTED THE WAR on their enemies months ago. #2a goes both ways. #1776again.
