Cynical Albertan. Interested in everything. Be kind but ask lots of questions. Kinda sweary.

Ouch. Mark Carney didn’t sugarcoat shifting power bases today: “…if they are not at the table, they will be on the menu.”

The one where the George Costanza of Canadian politics goes to work where he’s no longer employed and acts like he’s supposed to be there.

Honestly if the CPC is stupid enough to keep Poilievre on as leader it’s great from a tactical standpoint as he’s so hated by everyone but the CPC he’ll never be PM. Downside- he’s so annoying to listen to and most people are sick of him. #cdnpoli #abpoli

So Poilievre says no more tents in public spaces, they will be arrested. I guess only big trucks with loud horns are allowed to camp in public places. Vote wisely people #CanadaStrong

I learn from CBC. I listen to CBC. I will defend our right for a public broadcaster especially in these perilous times.

After demanding an election for the past two years, now a week away, piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre still hasn’t released a costed platform? The reason, of course, is he and Jenni Byrne don’t want the media, experts or voters any reasonable time to examine it and pick it apart. Vote wisely, 🇨🇦Canada

This is a bad podium visual. Does the CPC want to "Axe the Sales" and "Tax on Homes." Three word slogans work, six work slogans do not.

Jeffrey Goldberg thinking he was being pranked and then realizing he was actually just in the war plans group chat is such a good microcosm of how it feels to be alive right now, everything seems fake until you realize it’s actually real and incredibly stupid

And to be led by a monster is to be fearful every day. That is no way to live. Even politicians are scared of him. All parties. Media is scared of him. Businesses are scared of him. That is no way to live. So a felon/monster was elected because the black/asian lady was too joyful . Brilliant!
