I got to talk to our podcast, The Decibel this week - always a joy, no matter the topic - about the Canadian rebellion that boiled over in response to Trump's tariff threats, and how it reminded me of a classic work of literature: Horton Hears a Who. #cdnpoli

I'm listening to one of last week's episodes of #TheDecibel podcast, and I think I just got called "an elder millennial". Insulting, just insulting.
