😔 And there are many new Con MPs as bad or worse than him. It's alarming.
Canadians who care about our health, environment, prosperity, freedom, and democracy CAN NOT rest. We still have to work hard for our future.

Agreed. PP is irrelevant until such time that he has a position that makes him relevant.
The media needs to stop giving PP unearned attention.

He can disagree all he wants -- he's WRONG

I've been reading elsewhere that the ad is not legit.

These are often remote jobs in tough conditions in work camps that take a toll on workers and take breadwinners away from families. If they're lucky enough to be unionized, companies may not even hire from inside the province. 2/2

I don't understand the benefit of inviting foreign companies to extract our resources, to be shipped out of the country for production. The small number of jobs and environmental impact is not worth it. Even domestic refinement sucks due to increased pollution. 1/1

This is a good start.
I looked it up, it can cost 6 to 7 digits to run an ad like this, depending on day and placement. Chump change for a billionaire though.

That was really interesting. Thanks for sharing 👍

Yep, I chose to pay about 50% more for local BC strawberries today instead of US strawberries.
They were tastier too! 😋

Oh no, those poor hateful fascist minions have hurt feelings? 😢

Yeah, not sure Canada gives a 💩 what the US thinks anymore.

And within an hour of posting this I saw a dozen more equally appalling videos of unarmed civilians getting shot or beaten 😥😥😥

...well, we can say the same for Trump, and look at all the destruction he wreaks. 😔
All that matters is his ability to influence.
What I want to know is WHY HIM???

I won't be back until the Orange Menace and his ilk are gone.
When I return I plan to visit all the sites and cities who fought for freedom and justice, so LA will at the top of my list! 👊❤💪

Can we please not forget to mention that safety and moral opposition are also major factors in Canadians staying away from the USA

Why would anyone need to ask, unless something happened that they are worried about coming out?

I doubt tRump has made many of his own decisions in decades. He's been manipulated by smarter players all his life.

This is exactly what I foresee happening too.
Also, the MAGA base doesn't idolize Vance.
comment in response to

Not so sure. He doesn't have the cult leader influence tRump has. Without DJT, MAGA will fracture.

So sad. 😥 absolutely heartbreaking.💔

When you remember he's part of an American regime that wants to undermine Canada's legitimate government to take control of it, it makes perfect sense.

And opening the ostrich farm owners up to civil suits for willfully threatening the livelihoods of other farmers who follow the rules. There has also been defamation.

I've been predicting November. By then all the bad decisions will be hurting almost everyone and they'll be freaking out about having nothing for Christmas.

And having done nothing to contaminate the site! People and animals continue to be exposed.😳

Meanwhile, over 60 million domestic birds were culled this year in the USA due to avian flu. I wonder if he's going to put a stop to that.

Also: Decontamination protocol is required at a site that has had an outbreak. The virus can linger on surfaces including soil for up to several months (per CFIA documentation).
It's scary how many ppl and animals continue to be potentially exposed at the farm as we speak!

I'm not so sure this is true. All organizations have equal access to public grants. They simply need to apply. It's usually a committee that reviews applications and decides the successful applicants.

You may be right. I'm glad he did regardless. We need all hands on deck for this issue 👍👍👍

This is why it was confusing to me that Carney waded in to the housing issue. I was surprised he took it on as a federal plan.
More collaboration is always great but yes, it mainly lies with provinces & municipalities to solve.

That's exactly why I finally got serious about my veggie garden this year. Everything started from seed to save money.
Since I have the space it seemed like no excuse not to.

Vance is dangerous but since he doesn't have the cult following of tRump, when the Orange Menace dies, I think it's unlikely Vance will be able to keep any unity. There will be immediate in-fighting and probably violence among factions.

Just gave several more million people another reason not to visit the USA.
