Did you know that Ontario is spending millions of dollars every single day for their "Suck Up to the USA" commercials?

The commercials began after President Trump told Trudeau that he might impose tariffs if Trudeau didn't step up security on the Canadian border. Trudeau quickly complied, but Trump teased him heavily, calling him "Governor" of our Canadian "State".

THEN came the commercials. They are propaganda light. They come on television SO often that it verges on an attempt at brainwashing. They are all about how Ontario is our friendly neighbor and ally to the north, and partners in business and in our economy, and how they have all sorts of minerals we need for tech, and how they have so much energy up there to share.

I don't know if you have seen the commercials...but I am beginning to get angry about them. There is NO NEED for us to be subjected to this constant bombardment. My brain REFUSES to be washed...and Ontario is accomplishing the OPPOSITE of what they intended.

If you have seen the Ontario commercials, you know what I mean. Do YOU feel the same way that I do?

Now, now, let's be nice...

Ontario is our 3rd-largest trading partner and shares our common values.

@Thinkerbell When I was in Ottawa everyone said you had to cross into Quebec to find a titty bar worth its salt. The Ontario ones were prudishly regulated into uselessness 👎

Protestants don't have the sacrament of confession.
That's why Catholics get away with a lot more.
Or think they do. 😇

Italian Altar Boy's Confession

'Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose girl.'
The priest asks, 'Is that you, little Giovanni Fratelli?'
'Yes, Father, it is.'
'And who was the girl you were with?'
'I can't tell you, Father, I don't want to ruin her reputation.'

'Well, I'm sure to find out her name sooner or later so you may as well tell me now. Was it Tina Minetti?'
'I cannot say.'
'Was it Teresa Mazzarelli?'
'I'll never tell.'
'Was it Nina Capelli?'
'I'm sorry, but I cannot name her.'
'Was it Magda Piriano?'
'My lips are sealed.'
'Was it Rosa D'Angelo, then?'
'Please, Father, I cannot tell you.'

The priest sighs in frustration. 'You're very tight lipped, and I admire that. But you've sinned and have to atone. You cannot be an altar boy now for 5 months. Now go and behave yourself.'

Giovanni walks back to his pew, and his friend Franco slides over and
whispers, 'What'd you get?'

'Five months vacation and five excellent leads.'
