Donβt look away Canada. Pierre Poilievre s platform include βmassiveβ cuts to foreign aid. #maplemaga
If only we could think of how the descent into madness happened?
βIf youβd have talked to me two weeks ago, I wouldnβt have brought it up as a main concern but more of a gnawing feeling,β the software administrator said. βItβs something Iβve been thinking about. But now itβs violence, while before it was just this sense of animosity and division.β
Here is a stark lesson about the power of partisanship, Republicans who only just now realize something is off about the tone and tenor of the country:
If youβre not following @brenttoderian.bsky.social already, you should.
@bcferrys.bsky.social traffic control is having some tough, long, hot days with drivers not paying attention. Letβs invite John Cleese in character of Basil Fawlty to come and do some of his best rants www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/lists...
Las Vegas is hurting as tourism drops. Are Canadians behind the Sin City slump? @cbcnews.ca Canadiansβ response to Trumpβs threats are not the cause of economic impacts in the U.S. The blame for their economic troubles falls squarely on Trump and his many enablers. #dobetter #selfinflicted
Hey Canada, you know one of the candidates in the Battle River - Crowfoot riding is running on national fundraising and the other is a local independent? Here is how you can level the playing field: www.bonniecritchleyindependent.com/donate

Our Little Free Library has a very dedicated Mormon who places their bible as fast as we remove it. Maybe they think this means that itβs wildly popular!
Wearing my βIβm with the bannedβ books t-shirt while I came to say the book is on my top 10 all time list. The audio book narrated by Sissy Spacek is also excellent.

The men who need this excuse prefer to have their privilege (ie. all jobs reserved for them alone) over having to qualify through effort. So I too walk on eggshells because Iβm pretty sure saying what I really think of their attitude would not fly in the workplace.
Canada needs a federal minister responsible for the prevention of violent crime, supported by a deputy minister with no other responsibilities.
The successes in other countries suggest this approach could reduce serious crime by 50 per cent in the next five years, write two experts.
I care that there is gender equity. A separate Ministry does not guarantee anything. Sometimes separate ministries result in βthis isnβt our problemβ attitude when, in fact, gender equity issues are systemic. Even if there is a separate Ministry, I would want to see equity as part of every mandate.
Now do Tsawwassen. Exact same citizen sentiments βand I believe everyone else here feels that same wayβ and asking for a referendum on land use and density. And this is about redevelopment of old strip malls surrounded by parking lots. Major difference? Divided council.
Left Twitter when it became X. Why is any public institution, business or member of the media still propping it up with their participation? #donβtlookaway #resist #noexcuses
The Conservative civil war will rage until Poilievre and Byrne do the right thing for their party β¦ so thatβs going to be a while. The Jivani interview was a jaw dropper.
That Jivani interview was jaw dropping. Poilievre wakes up to having lost a massive lead and his own seat. He will try to cling to some of the gains CPC made overall but, unable to change his own deep unpopularity ratings and the rift with progressive conservatives in the provinces, heβll flounder.
That would be Liz Truss, British Prime Minister for about the same amount of time as your produce sits in the refrigerator.
Donβt bother Newsom. I donβt travel in countries that engage in threatening my country, human rights abuses, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, racism, voter suppression and ignore the rule of law. You canβt guarantee the safety of your own citizens or that of visitors. π¨π¦. #cdnpoli #ElbowsUp
www.cbc.ca/news/politic... In the absence of the Trumpian style Executive Order, Poilievre finds the next closest thing to further align himself with Trumpβs policies. #ElbowsUp #NeverPoilievre #Cdnpoli
I donβt travel in countries that engage in human rights abuses including misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, racism and ignore the rule of law. You canβt guarantee the safety of your own citizens never mind that of visitors. π¨π¦
Agreed but have to ask, why would we bother participating in that clownβs sideshow?
