I didn't realize how tighly wound I was prior to election today. Relief is so palpable that I'm on the verge of tears. We backed away from the precipice and we'll be okay. 🇨🇦 #cdnpoli - ThreadSky

Huge, warm, comforting hugs!

grumpyyogicat.bsky.social•23 days ago

keep those elbows up though

thehillshaveayes.bsky.social•23 days ago

Im happy for you.
Its nice to know good people still exist

bookmobile.bsky.social•23 days ago

Keep your eyes open, though. We 🇺🇲 thought we were done with trump in '20.

nicole-renae.bsky.social•23 days ago

A minority govt can be brought down at any time with a vote of non confidence. It's not over and we're under no delusions.

nicole-renae.bsky.social•23 days ago

I'm under no delusion. A minority government can fall with a vote of no confidence at any time.

shangerb.bsky.social•24 days ago

The tightening of numbers and flip-flopping of ridings, while not surprising, has me still awfully tightly wound! The relief is very tremulous still…

quiquaequod.bsky.social•23 days ago

The idea that the country is deeply divided is perhaps the greatest illusion spread by the right wing. They are puffing themselves up artificially with help from fascist US interests. It’s an effort to toe in the ideas to then gain traction.

quiquaequod.bsky.social•23 days ago

That’s what happened in the US. But don’t make the same mistake and assume they will accept defeat. The new government needs to root out those little poison pockets and eliminate them. There can be no toleration of intolerance. You can worry about contradictions after the threat is past.

americanism.bsky.social•23 days ago

I'm happy for you all.

protestpoet.bsky.social•23 days ago

Happy for you and also envious. Going into year 10 of living in Little Donnie's Big Casino, and I'm emotionally exhausted.

rosegarden001.bsky.social•23 days ago

Yeah, I'm pretty wound up here in America. At least you have relief. I hate waking up every morning wondering what the orange piece of sh*t is going to do that day. Congratulations on the win.

nicole-renae.bsky.social•23 days ago

We also wake up every morning wondering what new hell he has unleashed on the world. You deserve better.

echoframe.bsky.social•23 days ago

God bless Canada for making the right choice. Those of us with any brains left here in the U.S. are rooting for you 🇨🇦

missgg.bsky.social•23 days ago

I’m so happy for Canada👏🏼💕We, on the other hand, elected an imbecile here in the US and will suffer for decades. You’re so blessed that your country isn’t filled with idiots.

nicole-renae.bsky.social•23 days ago

We have our fair share of idiots, trust me. Time will tell where we go from here.

missgg.bsky.social•23 days ago

At least you’ve got a shot at surviving. Ours is just about gone. It’s horrifying.

nicole-renae.bsky.social•23 days ago

It's shocking how quickly it all went to shit. There are truly evil people in powerful positions.

ko-5.bsky.social•23 days ago

Great job Canada 🇨🇦

beatriccia.bsky.social•23 days ago

CONGRATULATIONS. I only wish the idiots in this country had opened their eyes like you all did.

gargoylegal14.bsky.social•23 days ago

Happy for you. Jealous, but very happy. From an envious 🇺🇸

hellobonjour.bsky.social•23 days ago

I feel exactly the same. So many of us have been at it not only since Trudeau left, but really since the convoy started. It's nice to feel like we can let go for a bit.

62universal.bsky.social•23 days ago

Heartfelt congratulations!! Have your cry and then SMILE!!!!!!

elsieslp.bsky.social•23 days ago

We sane Americans are very relieved for Canada. Congratulations!

djnarcisse.bsky.social•23 days ago

Just remember you can never take your eyes off the ball. We did it for too long and now we're stuck in the consequences

nicole-renae.bsky.social•23 days ago

It's definitely not over. Time will tell where we go from here.

ktlps.bsky.social•23 days ago

Big hugs from Blue Virginia!! 💙💙💙

jenfricker.bsky.social•23 days ago

Similar feelings here, but it kinda went to shit in my country

pilot2969.bsky.social•23 days ago

As an American, don’t get complacent, they are persistent, they will try again.

Elbows up my neighbors to the North.

reformedreformer.bsky.social•24 days ago

I am the same. When the CBC called it for the Liberals I literally jumped out of my seat and started screaming and hollering, and crying like a baby.

Talk about emotional release!! 😭😭😭

rkdeo.bsky.social•23 days ago

Congratulations! I'm so happy for Canada!

graceschroeder.bsky.social•23 days ago

What I wouldn't give for the happy tears.

wordlewoman.bsky.social•24 days ago

We in the 🇺🇸 applaud the Canadian voters on their choice of PM.
We are neighbors.
Please don’t let our present POTUS ruin the good relationship we have.
🇨🇦 + 🇺🇸 = 👍

parhelion17.bsky.social•23 days ago

I'm very happy for you and I look forward to us being able to feel the same

nicole-renae.bsky.social•23 days ago

I wish that for you, as well.

roam-town-girl.bsky.social•23 days ago

I’m up for adoption!

😔😔😔

taradowning.bsky.social•23 days ago

Not jealous at all

taradowning.bsky.social•23 days ago

😭

carefulegardener.bsky.social•23 days ago

That’s how I felt in Nov 2020. So happy for Canada!

grannynannynews.bsky.social•23 days ago

Congrats. I envy your country. You were able to avoid a Trump wannabe as well as years of anti-anxiety prescriptions.

nicole-renae.bsky.social•23 days ago

Oh, I've been on anti-anxiety meds for years! I just won't have to up the dosage! 😂

jsfellie.bsky.social•23 days ago

Am so glad for results in Canada! That tension is how it feels to live in the US under the trump regime

nicole-renae.bsky.social•23 days ago

My heart really does go out to you. I wish better for you.

wildsalmons.bsky.social•24 days ago

I feel this with you! I feel like a weight is lifted.

allen-j.bsky.social•23 days ago

I think it was more a question of style than of substance. Carney moved the Liberals to the right with respect to the carbon tax. However, if one were to choose leaders, whose resumé looks better?

nicole-renae.bsky.social•23 days ago

In this moment? Definitely the guy who won.

bluesgull.bsky.social•23 days ago

That's how I feel every fucking day now that the orange felon is our president.

xgoogleplex2.bsky.social•23 days ago

Same🇨🇦❤️

memphisbelle1114.bsky.social•23 days ago

Congratulations.

frostydaisy.bsky.social•23 days ago

I wish we could say the same!

merle-michigan.bsky.social•24 days ago

Congrats My Brothers and Sisters to the North!! You did in 2025, what the U.S. failed to do in 2024. (100 days in and now, many are beginning to see what is really up, here.)

macareuse.bsky.social•23 days ago

Same here. I went to bed around 11:15 eastern time when it was too close to call. I fell asleep fearing the worst. I think the person rejoicing the most must be @brucefanjoy.bsky.social who unseated #NeverPoilievre. The country is deeply divided and we’ll all have to work very hard. #CarneyForPm.

newenglandbunny.bsky.social•23 days ago

I always thought Canadians were kind, polite folks. Now you are truly blessed!

patryan.bsky.social•23 days ago

Congratulations! I really wish it was us having an election now and the orange blob was defeated.

kali8989.bsky.social•23 days ago

👍🏼 too bad the same can't be said about the US...
