I honestly thought Canadians watching what the Americans were enduring would pay more attention, not less, to what their governments are doing. Instead they’ve used it as an occasion to feel superior instead of becoming engaged.

Today, Liberals, Conservatives, & the Bloc voted to kill #C233. πŸš«βš–οΈ

They chose to keep a massive loophole open that exempts 50% of Canada’s arms exports from human rights oversight. The Carney Liberals talk about values, but their actions say otherwise. #cdnpoli #HumanRights

85 now, all perfectly reasonable things we should be able to expect from our government.

NDP MP Lori Idlout crossing floor to Liberals, PM Carney two seats shy of majority Nunavut NDP MP Lori Idlout has crossed the floor to join the Liberals, according to NDP interim leader Don Davies.

Floorcrossers should have to sit as independents until the next election. Voters in these ridings didn't vote for Liberals.

But the one thing most Canadian MPs seem to agree on is that they don't owe their voters shit.

THE REASON YOUR KID MIGHT SOCIALLY TRANSITION WITHOUT TALKING TO YOU IS BECAUSE YOU HAVE CREATED AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE THEY DON'T FEEL SAFE TALKING TO YOU ABOUT THEIR NEEDS. INVESTIGATE THAT.

The idea that opposing and rolling back trans rights is good for cis women and girls is ludicrous on every level and absolutely enraging when applied in legislation and policy that obviously limits and rolls backs rights for ALL women and girls

Related: I cannot believe Canadians see Poilievre and Carney as the only viable options and accept it. Both support a blatantly illegal and immoral war started by Trump and Netanyahu of all people.

If you are serious about that you will ask your leader to restore the WAGE funding and repeal the Alberta trans bans. If you are not serious, then please save your empty words.

I’ve had broken bones, I’ve birthed 3 children, I’ve had orbital cellulitis that nearly killed me, and none of these were as agonizing as the tooth infections I’ve had. This poor man. These monstrous people.

Reading the Crockett discourse rn actually has me leaning towards Tennille. I was thinking Lewis b4 the Platner stuff but also from a mindset of considering what other (white) voters think - and I’m sick of participating in the loop of self-fulling prophecies. I want an Indigenous woman in charge.

Condemn Canadian support for US/Israeli war on Iran Mark Carney has endorsed the US/Israeli war on Iran. Tell the Prime Minister to condemn this effort to balkanize Iran in service of US imperialism and genocidal Jewish supremacy.

Paraphrased for Canadians:

*protecting your personal peace* is not the important thing when your country is complicit and assisting with murdering people across the world. please be serious.

It's illegal under US law. It's illegal under international law. It's all but certain to escalate violence in the region. It will mean the deaths of massive numbers of civilians. *Explicitly supporting* Trump's war with Iran ought to wake everyone up to who Carney truly is.

Explicit support for an illegal war started by a country that is directly threatening us. This is beyond appeasement, it's total complicity.

I know Canada’s electorate is mainly focused on the economy right now, but the abject failure of the Carney government to offer even token support for international law should be a real black eye.

A complete abandonment of Canadian values at a critical moment in global history.

Above all, said Gazan, Jivani should have been aware that the expression β€œoff the reservation” was inappropriate.


β€œIf he’s not educated enough to know that’s a racist comment,” she said, β€œmaybe he should consider whether he should be representing the public, which also includes Indigenous people.”

that goes for the rest of the U.S. men’s πŸ’ team too. Leafs’ Matthews, Sens’ TKachuck and Jets’ Hellebuyck are in for an β€œelbows up” reception in πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ rinks.
