Alternate Headline that would actually deserve to be on a Canadian top-news page:
“Kate Photo Scandal another reason Canada should divorce itself from this circus”.
I mean, for the love of god, WHO CARES.
They Don't Live Here.
None of them have any impact on our day to day lives.
They aren't even Canadian Citizens.
It's just gossip. That's all it's good for. Stupid, meaningless, gossip.
I'd be happy to discuss the merits and demerits of the Canadian #monarchy with you, @chris , as time permits.
Let's get a few subsidiary issues out of the way first:
I agree that parliamentary democracy is entirely compatible with a republic, and that the head of state in such a system could be selected in many different ways (e.g., #TrinidadAndTobago has the parliament choose its president) — I think that's a preferable system to a presidential republic; probably you do too?
SISTERS, CLINGING TOGETHER after a family tragedy leaves one with profound brain injuries and the other with responsibilities she can barely handle, find separate ways through crises. Lovely mix of Trinidadian legends and European fairy tales.
At the recent Trinidad Carnival, Mas band Vulgar Fraction showed solidarity with Palestine and other places experiencing genocide, thus reinforcing that Mas was, is, and forever will be about revolution.

It is an explorative small sample size #research that, hopefully, one day will be expanded into cross-national comparison.
What a fantastic opportunity for Canada. If we beat Trinidad & Tobago in March & qualify for the Copa America next summer, we'll play in the opening have against freakin' Argentina! Peru & Chile will also be big challenges for the Canadian men, but exactly the kind of challenges our national team needs leading up to the 2026 World Cup.
Here goes once again: This time I asked #ChatGPT to generate the hashtags for all Global South countries. Sorry for any mistake and I hope I'm not being too spamy:
I'm selling 2 tickets for #CCCamp23 (#Germany, August 15th to August 19th, 2023)
On July 4, 1973, the Caribbean Community and Common Market (CARICOM) was established when the leaders of Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica, and Trinidad and Tobago signed the Treaty of Chaguaramas in Chaguaramas, Trinidad and Tobago. This political and economic union now has 15 member states throughout the Americas and Atlantic Ocean.
