We have now to rely on the people to do the right thing! Our Conservative premieres can’t. #elbowsup

They are in a war zone - they have to make do with what you got. War on children - great elementary school, war on faith - great - a church. Have they commandeered a Subway yet?

I think he’s been detained long enough.

They’re counting on fear keeping you quiet. But fear doesn’t mean powerless, it means aware. If the “front lines” remember who they swore to serve (👋 not fascism), maybe history doesn’t have to rhyme that hard. Holding the line, with love 💛 from 🇨🇦 to the resistors.

I wish all dissidents safety! The world needs more hero’s like Jason, and you, David. If you aren’t on a “list” are you doing your part?

Almost 50 yrs ago 🇨🇦 gave us the “baby bonus”, monthly support based on income, kid count, & age (babies = 💸). It’s now the CCB & still helps families thrive. We didn’t need a Trumpy savings account PR stunt - we just invested in children like they matter. Novel, eh? #PolicyNotPerformances

The best I can hope for now is that he holds the provinces accountable to providing a livable wage to the unemployable. AND removes the barriers to the CDB.

Oh gawd! I hope you are right!

We want sovereignty and we are stuck between a rock and a hard place. Defense from coast to coast to coast. CBC has to see that the entirety of NATO is raising its spending to make up for the volatility of the US. Times? They are a changing’.

True story!

“Can’t afford A/C? Then die.” That’s not policy, that’s eugenics with a hydro bill. The poor aren’t a blight, your lack of compassion is. And if expecting basic humanity from humans is insane, then maybe government is the one that needs therapy. 🧊🔥🧠

Our parents paid into a safety net. What we got? A shredded hammock held up by bureaucrats with scissors. People aren’t being supported—they’re clinging to the scraps, hoping not to fall. This isn’t how a country takes care of its own. 💔🇨🇦 @mark-carney.bsky.social

Absolutely fuming and I will stay that way. If you voted for DOFO just because he stood up to Trump…congrats, you empowered a toddler in a premier’s suit. PM Carney said it best: it’s Canada first now. 🇨🇦 Minerals? Ours. Future? Ours. Doug? Not ours. 🖕 #BuildCanada

Stand your ground. Do not obey in advance. You can change what happens next and history will remember.

If you have to say something, it’s likely happening often enough to be a bit of a pattern - he thinks we are idiots.

Did you hear about the accidental arrest of a tourist, and how they left the tourists 12 year old in the street? I almost cried. How can they be so cruel!!

He should have the best lawyers to defend this crap AND get compensation. Pro bono until he wins. They can give the family of a traitor to the constitution a multimillion dollar settlement…. But this family - they need it more! Karma’s will be done!

If Elon Musk rigged the election for Trump, he’d face jail time to. UNLESS…. they deport him first! Imagine Musk narrating from afar while Trump faces the music

JD is the end game. Project 2025. Hardline theocrats cloaked in populism, leveraging faith as a weapon to dismantle democratic norms. Cross-waving constitutional arsonists.

I’m waiting to hear something I didn’t know already

He is very specific by the amount of loss he changed

What is good for the goose - is also good for the cheeto dusted TACO. What goes around comes around.

When Trump has taken the international competition out of the US market place, your prices aren’t going down, tarif or no. Greed has never been known to retreat.

Today isn’t the first sad day. Ford slashed autism funding, killed rent control, gutted legal aid, sold the Greenbelt, and handed MZOs out like candy. Now he’s bulldozing species and ignoring Indigenous rights. Ontario didn’t vote for leadership. It voted for demolition.

Proud Boys and fresh recruits of small-penis men puffing the power of a petty punk in a party store vest cheap, loud, and trying hard to look tough. Masked cowards with guns drawn, terrorizing civilians to feel big in a world that sees right through them - sad

I’d like to see the parade of militia start singing the “song of angry men”. youtu.be/pIQh_5dZUwI?...
