Sen. Brian Schatz D-Hawaii on the airplane gift. @schatz.bsky.social

UCP Justice Minister Mickey Amery is a friend and relative of a key figure in the #CorruptCare scandal, yet he continues to oversee the investigation. This isn’t an investigation; it’s a cover-up. 👉 Demand action: fireamery.ca #ableg #abpoli

So fucking happy I have always been a Liberal. Loved PMJT, he was railroaded by the right wing media and HelburDUH. He was too kind, too accommodating, Carney is much more forceful. Fuck the right wing CONs, Fuck Jeff, and fuck HellburDUH. #ElbowsUp🇨🇦

There are more illiterate people in the USA than the entire population of Canada....think about that. 43 Million Americans are functionally illiterate. They cannot read a Dr Seuss book to their children. Yes the USA is trying to hold Canada hostage. #Idiots

Also, the election already happened. The Liberals don’t need to be in campaign mode tip-toeing around wealthy homeowners’ property values. They need to be in “fixing our biggest problems head on” mode.

Is this Trumps back door to annex Canada piece by piece using Batshit Smith to do it?

WTF???

“What radicalized you?” I am not sure there as one “single moment” (or if any event in particular radicalized me). It’s just who I am… but also, why is it radical to thinks social hierarchies are nonsense? #ActuallyAutistic

“The idea that Alberta could go it alone is a complete nonstarter. It cannot be economically viable, it is not going to work” #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/art...

Can Danielle Smith of this week arrange a chat with Danielle Smith of… A whole six months ago? #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

What I see, as a Canadian, when muricans rush to say "I didn't vote for this, it's not us, this isn't who we are". I am old enough to remember Gander, Newfoundland, landing every one of your planes after 9/11. You know what DID NOT happen in Canada?

LIBERALS: for every one of us sitting at home and not voting on Monday, there will be three Cons waiting in line to vote. This is not a drill.

I can’t predict the future, but I do know this: if PP loses—and he probably will—we’re going to be flooded with crying #MapleMAGAs screaming about a stolen election. That’s been the setup all along: heads they win, tails we lose. I’ve been saying this for years.

CBC News Fact Check reports Pierre Poilievre repeated a misrepresentation from the Fraser Institute, that Canadians pay 43% of their income on all taxes. Wrong! The Institute included CPP and EI payments which are NOT taxes, knowingly making 43% a lie. Words matter. #cdnpoli

Conservative fans have been saying for this whole three-year campaign Pierre has been on that he had a platform ready to go as soon as the election was called. Colour me shocked that it wasn't true.

It’s time to build a Canada you can afford.   My government will make Canada the world’s leading energy superpower, build homes at a pace not seen since WWII, and train thousands more skilled trades workers.

From 12 yrs ago. Sound familiar? Harper was WAY ahead of the curve with his ‘soft-fash’ approach. Like any good Canadian, he’s not garish and brash about it like the yanks/Trump. subtle like his cabbage patch kid haircut. Remember, he’s PP’s mentor and advocate.

Stephen Harper is on TV shilling for P.P. Does Pierre not realize that Harper is the most hated politician in my lifetime & I'm in my 75th year? Not very in tune with Canadians - is he?

🚨 Heads up #yycbike #yegbike. The Doug Ford infection is spreading to Alberta!

In case you missed it - we got shirts! #yycbike www.bonfire.com/critical-mas...

Carney is asked about this policy in his presser, and he calls it a "very dangerous step." "We have a Charter of Rights and fundamental freedoms in this country, and it's the responsibility -- in my view -- of the prime minister and of the government of Canada to defend that charter."

I watched parts of several of his rallies and the open hatred he has against people with compassion, whom he calls 'woke', he calls everyone names, attacks others for their ideologies, he attacks diversity, inclusion, women, he is just plain awful, I wish people would see that.

I read the latest "Conservative Party of Canada Policy Declaration" from Sep 2023, and hoo boy. It has a number of pretty concerning sections, some of which I will highlight in the following thread 🧵 They sound like Trumpian language translated into calm, reasonable-sounding but dangerous Canadian.

Bill 49 should have been dead on arrival. Albertans don’t want a provincial police force. Rural leaders don’t want a provincial police force. Even Sheriffs themselves have serious questions. But the UCP refuses to talk to any of them. They’re just forcing it through. #ableg

Yes, clips of the vile hatred spewed at his rallies by his followers needs to be shown to everyone. I was at the one in Kingston and got called a "retard" at least 50 times, they are angry, hateful people.

For easier digestion and sharing, I converted my thread on the Conservative Party's Policy Declaration into a single post: shiveryourtimbers.ca/blog/project.... It's a big dose of yikes. (I wrote this up when I had some time in the wee hours, so forgive some of my grammar.) #CdnPoli

This government’s #CorruptCare crisis just got worse. Instead of trying to control the narrative and limit exposure, the UCP needs to give Albertans REAL answers! #ableg #abpoli

Bicycles & buses do NOT belong together. Period. If it's not safe for an 8 year old & 80 year old... it's NOTHING. Do not call it bikelane. Paris has improved much safety for riding bicycles. Still, few boulevards mix gigantic bus with bike. NOT SAFE. Physically separated lanes.

What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

Again, very Trumpian. And he’s playing to the Evangelical crowd. What? He doesn’t trust the Canadian SC??? Wow. This man is not fit to lead.

Poilievre is saying that unless we do consecutive sentences for multiple murders, you get “4 years of jail time per murder.” “That’s insane” he says. It’s actually a lie. They don’t get out. They get a hearing, and the murderers he’s talking about don’t get parole in Canada. He’s rage-farming.
