Disinfo & malinfo are threats to democracy! We need to teach our children social emotional skills to ensure they become empathetic adults capable of critical thinking! Believe in science & learn from history! Very sad to see what's happening in the USA

Sadly, yes 😔

The whole thing is probably a set up. They will find him guilty of bogus charges and send him back. And then say they habe followed the law.

"Mistakenly deported" needs to be replaced with "Human trafficked" or "Kidnapped"

It's 11+ in Waterloo Region.

Many, but not all. We have some ignorant loud mouths here too. They were responsible for the Freedumb convoy here a couple of years ago.

Sounds similar to what happened in Canada with Trudeau. Luckily we didn't vote in our mini Trump.

Wow! I was waiting for this day. Knew it would happen at some point. Thanks for sharing!

Do you have any screenshots? I'd love to see their fights!

Ya, everything seems to change day by day.

I know some Canadians in the US on work visas. They aren't visitors. One is married to an American. I assume they will be fine.
comment in response to post
Thanks Mary! I am saddened everyday by the state of the world.
comment in response to post
I'm in his riding and am disgusted by the neighbours who voted for this guy.
comment in response to post
I was thinking more along the lines of white people on work visas. I assume they are fine (Canadians, Europeans, Australians, etc)
comment in response to post
I assume it's only non-white, non-citizens that need to worry? The white ones are most likely fine 😡

If that were Biden it would be front page news!
comment in response to post
We are in the same riding. Luckily he didn't come to my door. That may not have ended well. 🤣
comment in response to post
He won my riding. It's been liberal for years and was projected to go liberal again. I was horrified when he won.
comment in response to post
If they replace PP with a leader that doesn't speak any French, they most likely won't get any seats in Quebec. Which I am totally fine with!
comment in response to post
The headlines on this story are way off. Please don't repeat them!
comment in response to post
If he doesn't put money into healthcare, there won't be anyone left to use his big beautiful tunnel 😂
comment in response to post
I agree. The scary thing now is that everyone has a megaphone that reaches all corners of the planet. Before the internet and social media, it was easier to keep the lies under control. They are mainstream now
comment in response to post
Hmm, I can't remember what he campaigned on as I have always voted NDP. Can you refresh my memory on what was left of NDP?
comment in response to post
I wouldn't say Trudeau was more NDP. He worked with them to save himself. Carney is an old school progressive conservative.
comment in response to post
Geez, that is crazy. Sorry you have to go through that.

Unfortunately there are some in Alberta who want this. They need to pack up and move there!

I just learned that some of the ingredients in our generic brand butters come from the US. I guess I need to spend more to get all Canadian butter.
comment in response to post
I was going to comment that the US is most likely under reporting. I don't believe that Canada has more cases. We are a fraction of the size of the US population and probably have higher vaccination rates than they do.
comment in response to post
This is amazing! Thanks for sharing.
comment in response to post
In order for PP to disappear the CPC has to disappear. Intelligent and honourable Conservatives must reclaim Conservatism. Progressive Conservatism has to return not only to politics but to peoples minds, get rid of this far right insanity that is destroying people and the world's stability.
comment in response to post
Their playbook is identical to what big tobacco was back in the day! They deny their role on climate the way tobacco did with cancer/disease
comment in response to post
I think the slippery slope is becoming an "everything goes" environment for fear of losing some kind of rights. Democracy and civil society only work with rules & laws. I don't see the problem of a law that says no vulgarity within 100 metres of a parliament building, for example.
comment in response to post
All I was saying is that I agree with the author of the article for all the points he mentioned.
comment in response to post
The point is where this behaviour is taking place. What you do on your private property is your business. Our institutions are under attack, and this kind of behaviour only throws fuel on the fire. Let's make decorum great again!
comment in response to post
That should read "I am *not* ok with it around our institutions"
comment in response to post
I am ok with it when it happens in and around our institutions which are public spaces. What you do on your own private property is different. Fly a F Carney flag at your house but do not take down our institutions!
comment in response to post
The point of the article is very important. We should put an end to anything mocking our institutions as it's how democracy dies "Decorum at hallowed public spaces that represent our governance must be maintained"

I really hope it stays that way. But we have to keep an eye on the ultra wealthy tech bros here (Shopify ceo is a good example) and make sure they don't get involved in government
comment in response to post
That is unbelievable and so wrong.
comment in response to post
There will be more corruption, especially in places where the government is the ultra wealthy (or strive to be) - see current day USA. And then throw in some racism, control and power. I don't know what to do to stop this
comment in response to post
Greed fueled capitalism is not sustainable. We aren't as much in a battle between left and right (in the traditional political sense). Rather, we are starting to see the battle between the wealthiest and everyone else.

I was wondering who is paying for this? She will be in the hospital for 23 weeks before they try to remove the baby. Who will take care of the baby? This is disgusting!
comment in response to post
I read that over the last few decades the federal health transfers have gone up 4 times while provincial investment into healthcare has only doubled. That is a problem.

So Zelenskyy will be talking to himself???
comment in response to post
This happened at the beginning of March. I'm pretty sure they are back in Romania. They went to some UFC fight in the states. Disgusting no matter when it was.

I got an MMR booster today!
