What to do this weekend in Montreal 🖤

Montreal has unhealthy air quality today due to smoke from wildfires in the Prairies “Limit time outdoors, and consider reducing or rescheduling outdoor sports, activities and events.”

“Splitting the left vote to benefit the Conservatives shouldn’t be the NDP’s sole purpose. Despite what Don Davies would have you believe, Mark Carney’s approval rating among NDP voters sits at 70%. Interestingly, Davies’ personal favourability is almost as bad as Poilievre’s. Now we know why.”

“Don Davies could have criticized the throne speech, reiterated NDP values and capitalized on anti-Poilievre sentiment. Instead he made a foolish gamble that may have resulted in another election and further NDP loses — a blunder of epic proportions.” An editorial by @taylornoakes.com.

“Watching #Friendship had my hairs standing on end and shivers running down my spine. It’s a comedy, of course, but one that sometimes feels like laughing at a funeral — an inappropriate reaction that paradoxically releases and amps up discomfort.”

Montreal has spoken. 🥟

“Canadians are happy with what they’re seeing from newly elected Prime Minister Mark Carney. Carney’s early moves on U.S.-Canada relations and cabinet appointments have created favourable first impressions. He now leads all major party leaders in favourability, with a net positive score of +23%.”
