Choosing not to read my local newspaper is going to be very hard (I really enjoy political news coverage).

It would be an erasure of hundreds of years of history, a destruction of a friendship just as lengthy and the very elimination of the culture that I have been brought up in. It&#39;s also warring against my firm belief in a Canada that builds with others: and that this approach is foundationally being rejected. 2025-02-02T23:56:49Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsw0try899jmzct69xlwjjv3w69mu0cdhz0djezvntah0ys6acu73szyzzpwr2jsj3c7gxlh4zqaupz7gn7xd5wms3szpkqeav2dvwrqd2kyt6frx3 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsrttx7j4mu8x9ay5zedcq064pll7huucrnlvhmxdzst59t8mnpu0q7fegec'>nevent1q…egec</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>With my American friends actively pressuring my country and demanding its surrender, I am thoroughly aggrieved.
