Told my wife to have dinner ready by 6 or I'll obliterate her entire civilization.
So anyway, she now charges me a fee to use the bathroom that used to be free, and I didn't get any dinner, but I'm pretty sure I won that exchange. 😂

40 countries met to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
The U.S. wasn’t invited.
After weeks of Trump raging at allies, the UK and France just stepped up and handled it.
Turns out when you act like a tantrum-thrower, the adults move on without you.

Last June, we announced our plan to transform Canada’s defence. A plan to protect Canadians — and achieve the NATO 2% target, half a decade ahead of schedule.
