#cdnpoli - Quotes that didn't age well.

Canadian road travel across border fell another 15% in Feb, year to year, on top of the 17% from 2024. Airline traffic down 18% since last Feb. Americans visiting Canada UP 6% since last year. Fuck you Trump, all you do is hurt Americans. 4.5 billion lost a year, 310000 jobs. Winning? #cdnpoli

Joining from the left and the right, perhaps it's more about coming together during an existential crisis, rather the intellectually boring tribal partisan lines. The Liberal Party is really the emerging Canada Party, old divisions are meaningless. #cdnpoli

The way things are going in #cdnpoli, I half expect to awake to an announcement that Don Davies and Pierre Poilievre are crossing the floor to join the Liberals.

A National Unity / Coalition Government in a strange sort of way ;) Don't think I ever envisioned seeing MP's from both Conservatives and NDP defecting on my Bingo Card, nor that it would potentially turn a minority into a majority govt. #cdnpoli

More footage of the missile attack on Bryansk. Locals reported over 10 explosions. The General Staff meanwhile confirmed a Storm Shadow missile attack on the Kremniy El microelectronics plant which inflicted significant damage to production facilities. #Ukraine

In the belly of Kyiv is growing a movement that will equip women with technical education.
I can say with confidence that extreme cold, drones, death threats, red tape mess and distance have failed to stop this classroom from becoming a reality.
Official announcement is on the cusp ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ”ง

As an aside, this poll shows the Green Party ahead of the NDP in Ontario. First time I can ever recall that being the case in polling (tho to be fair, the lead is within the MOE and the #'s suck for both and would likely mean no seats for either if Leger's polling got borne out) #cdnpoli

Spain joins Canada in having nothing Trump or the US needs in trade, apparently.

I seem to recall the Conservatives and their supporters doing "Do you really believe the polls?" msgs out there last election with polls showing they were losing. Guess what? They lost, & a lot of pollsters scored very high marks for accuracy. Blaming polls for losing is copium. #cdnpoli

Pierre Poilievre:
Liberal launches vicious attack... against himself.

For more than a decade, this Liberal government piled on taxes, regulations, and barriers to every nation-building economic project.

The fix is clear: get government out of the way.

Let our workers build, invest, and create wealth once again in an affordable Canada.

Tell me you didn't read the fucking article without telling me you didn't read the fucking article.
LeBlanc was referring to provinces, most of whom are conservative, slow-walking the elimination of trade barriers.
Just an utter clown show.

The more US trade/diplomatic reps state this; the easier it is for the Liberal government/Prime Minister @mark-carney.bsky.social to not do a deal with these folks. Canadian public opinion, already hostile to Trump, will worsen further and there will be demands not to cave #cdnpoli #uspoli

Backlash to Danielle Smith and separatist coddling? Maybe approval of basically what is a Progressive Conservative government... and/or how Carney is dealing with Trump. It would be interesting to ask in polls why they're voting Liberal all of a sudden.

Which Republican Senator is this?

Conservatives like Andrew Scheer and Poilievre and their social media influencers whining that Carney hasn't got a deal yet with Trump is increasingly offside with mainstream Canadian public opinion. #cdnpoli

Congress needs to extend the tariffs 150 days after he launches these. I'm betting better then even odds they will not. # months before midterms, vulnerable Republican lawmakers will not be voting for this. #uspoli #cdnpoli

@mark-carney.bsky.social patience on the negotiation process with Trump was rewarded with today US Supreme Court Ruling. The Conservatives had been urging him to sign a deal - ANY deal - even if it was just lower tariffs. #cdnpoli
