Canada's stubby beer bottle finds new meaning in an age of American bluster

> Forty years after its retirement as the industry standard bottle for beer in Canada, the stubby is being reinterpreted in an age marred by tariffs and American grievance — not as a cultural icon, but as a discreet way of protecting a national industry. cbc.ca/news/canada/canada-stub #beer #Canada #CDNpoli #DonaldTrump #MAGA #tariffs #trade

Stubby beer bottles were the predominant vessel for beer in Canada from 1961 to 1984 and today exist largely in antique shops or private collections. (Craig Baird/Canadian History Ehx!)

🇨🇦 "Some Canadians have indicated that, despite the warnings, they intend to continue travelling to the United States. "

“See, our family is actually hoping to visit El Salvadore,” said 43-year-old Hamilton resident Gary Warren. “And when we looked into it, it turns out that it’s just way cheaper to drive to Buffalo than book flights to Central America.”

@Long_live_rock_n_roll in my quest to understand the musical influence of my favourite artist: “What do the artists you listen to, ‘listen to?’”

Neil Young on playing Ian Tyson records as a 17 year old at Falcon Lake, Manitoba, Canada.

“There was this place we used to go and for a nickel, you could put a nickel in the jukebox, or a quarter, whatever, in and played. This song (Four Strong Winds), was on it. So I used to play it all the time, because I, that's where I heard it for the first time. I love the song, I've always loved it, and used to listen to it over and over again. It's one of the best actual performances of a song I did. It just caught my attention you know there aren't many songs that I've sang that I didn't write so it was very real. Yeah, I don't think it can get any more real than that.” — Neil Young

Carney announced a $9 billion increase in military spending, surpassing NATO's target, despite his previous climate action promises.

Carney argued that this spending hike was a reclamation of Canadian sovereignty, but it deepens integration and subjugation to the US empire.

Carney's military spending will significantly increase federal government emissions, which are already exempt from national carbon reduction targets.
