Good video showing an alternate to first past the post. Canada needs electoral reform. Whoever partners with the Liberals needs to make sure reform happens IMHO. #canpoli youtu.be/zXHq04W0kBs?...

Poilievre pitches 100 days of change at the very same time that Trump prepares to celebrate 100 days of chaos. #canpoli

The NYT just dropped a bombshell: a foreign spa company with one location and no cash landed a 95-year sweetheart deal—based on misleading claims and a secretive, preferential process. This gov't was elected to protect Ontario. Do the right thing. Cancel the deal. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/16/w...

Never trust a leader who promises to use the notwithstanding clause of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms to push through right-wing “reforms” that would otherwise be illegal. What Pierre Poilievre wants to do is taken right out of Donald Trump’s playbook.

Dream big. Play hard. Shine bright. ✨ Every day, Abdirahman pushes himself, competing with older players to level up his game. For young refugees, sport builds confidence, creates unity and fuels big dreams. #SportsDay

Sport is more than a game for refugees—it's a pathway to hope and unity. The true finish line? Returning home in peace and safety. Ahead of #SportsDay, we celebrate how sport empowers refugees, giving them the confidence to dream and the strength to build a brighter future.

Love this.

I'm imagining a distant future where the Smithsonian opens a Museum of Fascism and in the grand foyer is a Cybertruck.

Elbows up, Canada.

In response to the tariffs, retired teacher and Prince Edward County resident Gord Moran has re-written Gloria Gaynor's - I Will Survive Great job by Wayne McFaul (production) and Sonya Jean Zaback (singing) for this. Really well done!🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦

Today is the day!! Make a plan to vote!! #VoteWilton #VoteGreen #WellingtonHaltonHills

Those "Be Great" hats that Gretzky passed out to the Canadian team are disgusting. Almost as bad as Musk's "my heart goes out to you" salute. #doublespeak

Whose selfish and foolish idea was it to hold an election in February? I went north for a few days to help family with record snow falls, and came back to find our @blwilton.bsky.social sign buried under a foot of snow! With the help of an avalanche probe (equivalent) we're back in business. #onpoli

Go for it Bronwynne.

Look, I'm trying my best. I don't know how I could be any <i>more</i> lame.

If you're tired of shovelling snow just use telekinesis to alter snowflake trajectories.

Choose your own adventure! The United States is crumbling and falling into itself, forming a black hole that threatens to suck in the whole sector. The starship Canada is perched just on the edge of the event horizon. Which captain will warp you the heck out of there?

Doug Ford says one thing when he’s in front of the cameras, and another when he’s behind closed doors. That’s who he has always been.

White mediocre men are granted more access to opportunities than any other group. This indicates our society places a higher value on race than on merit based qualifications. Ironically the bad faith argument they make against DEI is true of them. They’re the unqualified ones.

Everything Doug Ford was happy to do without asking for a Mandate from the electorate

Wow! The orange wave is strong in York—South Weston 🍊🌊 Ontarians are ready for something better — better schools, more doctors, and putting a good life back in reach. 🧵 (1/2)

It’s official: Doug Ford quit on Ontario today. So I’m here to apply for his job. In the next few weeks, we can turn the page on seven long years of failure, corruption, and bad deals. You deserve a better government. With your support, I’ll be a Premier that’s on your side. #ONyourside

I've changed my club slogan to: For people who love to play 🇨🇦 WORDS WITH ENEMIES 🇺🇸

Hundreds of Beavers is the best film I've seen in years. Brilliant.

The hospital thrift shop declined to take my donation of a typewriter, so I put it in the metal recycling bin. Bye bye, old friend 😢
