I know the connection you two had. It was so evident on That Curling Show. Never missed one. All my best to you and Colleenβs family.

Iβm very sorry to all that have followed me lately. Itβs been overwhelming and I canβt follow you all back although I want to. Bluesky. We need a follow all option.
Not sure what is going on but Iβve been followed by hundreds of people in the last few days β¦ sorry I donβt have time/countless hours to follow you back. Maybe Blue Sky can make a change to fix this.
In any event β¦ she was smoked by Wayne Long, and that was no surprise.
Just checked the mail β¦ received a 4 page letter from Pierre Pollievre asking me to support my
Local candidate Melissa Young. Was a day late and a dollar short as they sa, as it had to arrive Tuesday - wasnβt there βElectionβ Monday night when I checked the mail for my car sticker. π
6 months ago the Liberal
party in Canada was on the brink of extinction. Anticipated they couldnβt even ask a question in Parliament (like the NDP today sadly). They are now back in charge - why - because they werenβt abusive and care for people. Thatβs Canada. Love it.
Waiting for Maga/Trumpism to set in
Iβm definitely not saying thatβs a thing - the alt right/conservatives will probably use it. I am 100% confident in our electoral system. I won haha. Hats a good thing
Waiting for conspiracy theory - electors erased the pencil βXβ in many ridings as an example. Time for people to grow up, accept democracy and unite to defeat our foes. My rant.
I can say that today is a sad day for Canada. Not because the Liberals won the election last night - I am a Liberal and proud of it. It is because Conservatives canβt accept the vote of the people. Posts of upside down flags, headstones of Canada with graphic content.
Agreed - not even close. I see a blow up on the horizon
It baffles me that the BQ and Blanchet - who will never be PM (if they win every seat in Quebec theyβd still be 100 short) and Singh, who is praying for party status at this point, continue to bash Carney. Is Pollievre (mini Trump) your best wish? Thatβs scary.
Good on ya!
According to the Canadian Conservatives, I will now have to forage for food β¦ when does this start? I need to buy tools.
The devil got his wish here
The next four years are probably the most important 4 years in my 58 on earth. Is Carney perfect - Iβd doubt that. But he had his security clearance in a couple of weeks. What is the issue?
Why is the CBC continually accepting Conservative rhetoric that Anaida Pollievre is from Montreal?? She is from Venezuela - arrived in Canada at 8 years old as a refugee. Is this why PP wonβt try for his security clearance? Someone help me here.
Haha. I can imagine how uncomfortable that was.
Wow. Thatβs awesome Shannon. One heck of a man in my opinion.
He is dangerous. Say what you need to say to rally the base. He is not what we need today.
Watching Pollievre right now β¦ they have nothing. Slandering Carney, pipelines would exist but for Quebec (who are actually blocking, not the Liberals). I truly have not seen such desperation before in Canadian politics. He invests in Carneyβs former company. He is Trump with two languages.
Does she like salad as well? Couple of ours salivate over field greens!
My degree on Political science from MUN has finally started to kick in
I as well grew up in a βPCβhousehold in Newfoundland. Didnβt have a father as MHA but didnβt hesitate to vote for them when they actually were βProgressiveβ. Sad how things have changed Federally.
Agreed. We will be ok. It will hurt for a bit but Thatβs just the way we are.
Itβs tough being who we are as humans. I spent 3 years in the US and for the most part the people are great β¦ but thereβs no desire to help your neighbour. You are βon your own mentalityβ. Thatβs a for sure and certain.
As petty and hurtful as this sounds β¦ itβs time to cut them off from things like this, including fire resources. I lived less than a km from St. Johnβs NL airport on 9-11. I saw bellies of planes arrive every 30 seconds. The fact the US could go to this situation is unconscionable
(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraineβs sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.
Just cancelled baseball spring training trip to Florida out of Bangor .. supposed to leave next week. Lost a grand but that Cheeto ainβt getting my cash if I can help it
100% agree. Give him players to play with and heβs fantastic. Makes others way more successful as well. He can score lots, but his ice management and set up skills are phenomenal. And heβs just as good/accountable defensively. Frigging amazing at 37.
