Obama: "Canada, that historical adversary of ours. It's your neighbour. It's a few minutes drive over the bridge. They are the nicest people. And somehow we've gotten them so mad because they're just constantly being abused and talked about. Talking about annexing their country, making it a 51st state."

Bill Clinton on Mark Carney: I'm tired of treating our allies like they're dirt. The prime minister of Canada has been a friend of mine for a long time. We got to know each other having virtually nothing to do with politics. He's about the most well-qualified leader in the world. He's been head of the banks of both the UK and Canada. And we have the gall to suggest that they should become the 51st state.

Louis Prevost, Pope Leo XIV's older brother who lives in Florida, has multiple myeloma, his wife told CBS News on Tuesday. The news comes amid the Vatican's earlier announcement that the pope has been diagnosed with lung cancer after undergoing surgery to remove the lower lobe of his right lung. Deborah Prevost did not share what stage Louis' cancer is in but said he's currently in a clinical trial at a local hospital where he's being treated. cbsn.ws/4ik1GCQ

Canada has lost one of its most distinctive rock voices. Sass Jordan, the Juno-winning singer known for “Make You a Believer” and “High Road Easy,” died on Oct. 2, surrounded by her family. She was 63. Born in Birmingham, England, and raised in Montreal, Jordan rose to fame with her 1988 debut, “Tell Somebody,” and later became a familiar face as a judge on Canadian Idol. Her family remembered her as “an inimitable force of nature” and “an irreplaceable being of light and joy.” She leaves her husband, musician Derek Sharp, and their daughter, Stella 🤍 📸: getty

BREAKING NEWS: Earl Spencer has apologised to me for his defamatory lies published in his new book, Swan Song, published today. But I am pursuing legal action against him and his publisher Penguin to have the lies removed, and damages paid to the King’s Trust.

Earl Spencer has been caught in a bare faced lies about Piers Morgan. Piers Morgan is DEMANDING the segment about him is removed from his tawdry book and a donation to the Kings Trust as an apology 🤣 Spencer’s book has backfired and no doubt it will cost millions to reprint all his books 🤣

It might be the most unlikely legacy of 9/11, but 25 years later, the musical “Come From Away” continues to enchant audiences with its story about how Canadians opened their homes to their American neighbors, and the world, in the wake of tragedy.

This great speech, by a 92-year-old Canadian patriot and former prime minister, should touch the heart of every American. Trump’s assault on Canada is stupid and self-defeating. We should not make enemies of the people we have known as friends and allies for generations.
Former Canada Prime Minister Jean Chrétien: "I have message for American friends...never mistake our generosity for weakness. Never mistake our tolerance for lack of determination. And never, never mistake our kindness for softness...We bow to no one."

“I have a message for American friends. Yes, Canada is a generous, open country and Canadians are tolerant and kind. But never mistake our generosity for weakness. Never mistake our tolerance for lack of determination. And never, never mistake our kindness for softness." — Former PM Jean Chrétien, speaking at 9/11 commemoration ceremony in Gander, N.L.
