.@JustinTrudeau’s relationship with @realDonaldTrump was always going to reach this nadir: Trump is a dishonest, disgusting thug. No campaign of servility was ever going to change that. But now that it has, every Canadian should rally to Trudeau’s side. #cdnpoli #USPolitics

I'm not advocating cutting the US off, but doesn't @realDonaldTrump realize Canada is America's largest trading partner? What if we stop exporting our hydro power & water, sell our lumber, oil, minterals & grain elsewhere, stop importing US beef & pork? Who's "weak" now?

For some of us, the Vancouver International Wine Festival @VanWineFest , Feb 24-March 4, is the happiest time of the year. Hit the Tasting Room for wines from 2018's vine stars Spain + Portugal, among the 1,694 wines being poured. Other must-dos: seminars, grazing events, dinners

Truly one of the leaders in our wine industry and one of the greats. If you were lucky enough to spend time with Karl you'd have learned much and laughed much. teapaw.org/thespitter/status/9341…
