Doug Ford needs to cancel Ontario’s contract with Starlink now. Absolutely solidarity with Ukraine but also to avoid it being used as a bargaining chip by Musk and Trump against Canada. Right now, Premier Ford.

I don't understand how Pierre Poilievre lost a 30 point lead in less than six weeks, but somehow he managed. Maybe he needs to sell Canadians on a tax cut that he will never deliver on. Worked for me and my fellow conservative premiers. #cdnpoli #onpoli #bcpoli

Some glimmers of hope in the resistance (small “r”) against Trump in the US. What they need is a Navalny-like figure to galvanize and focus support for real opposition to the autocrats.

So, is he Schrödinger’s homicidal president or Schrödinger’s homicidal lackey?

the only thing Canadians like more than beating Russia in hockey is beating the US in hockey. the general sentiment this morning is that last night we got to do both.

The Politics of Brutalism Call them monuments, foreign elements, eyesores — Brutalist buildings have become another battleground in President Trump’s culture war. What you can look forward to with a CPC Govt in Canada archive.ph/7rY5g#select...

Signed. Everyone needs to sign this.

Keith’s words of Wisdom: how do you tax a Trump Voter without them realizing they are paying a consumer tax.🤣😂 Call it a Tariff.🤣😂👊🇺🇸😎

Mark Cuban is really shitting the bed these days. I guess he’s the stopped clock being correct twice a day kind of oligarch (not on this topic of course). His views on AI are also completely out of touch with reality.

And Ontario still wants to do business with Elon? Starlink? #BewareOfDoug #ABC #VOTE #VoteHimOut

My wife and I just voted...against Dougie and his cronies. The elections officer said there were about 800/day on Thursday/Friday and "a lot more than that today" in our Carleton riding. Remember, don't be part of the 57% that vote by not voting at all! Get out and vote! We can turf his ass!

There's something I'm fundamentally not understanding about the people the USA. You cry foul about the govt telling you to get vaccinated and wear masks, but when the govt is dismantling YOUR institutions and attempting to tear apart YOUR beloved constitution you do nothing? Help explain.

. 🇲🇽’s President Claudia is expanding a lawsuit against 🇺🇸 gun manufacturers holding them accountable for supplying over 74% of weapons used by cartels. She’s also pushing for harsh penalties on foreign 🔫 traffickers. This is what real leadership 👀 like . maybe we should’ve elected a woman. .

~Yes, there's big money in it for private surgical facilities and those opening the door for them. People are losing their lives, suffering all for them to profit hugely. Danielle Smith, the UCP and her pals have no shame, no ethics or morals. #UCPCorruption #UCPPublicInquiryNow

After repeatedly minimizing the threat of Covid why not do the same with the ‘51st state’ comments?! Canadians know where they stand on this, there have been opinion polls, changes in consumer behaviour, anthem booing. Pretty sure we don’t still need to talk about this.

Watching the Ontario leaders debate and all I can think is how much better off we’d be if the Greens, NDP, and Liberals just merged together for this election. They are all taking turns yelling at Doug Ford yet the vote splitting between those 3 parties will hand him another majority government 🤦‍♂️

Welp, I for one will not be listening to CBC Radio on Sunday afternoon. Entertaining the notion of Canada as a 51st state is a bridge too far. I know how I feel about it and I don’t give a shit about what supporters might feel about it. Move to Florida, losers! #CBC #IanHanomansing

DOGE this, Trump! #ChoppySaysHello

Danielle Smith is the perfect storm of un-Canadian values, MAGA delusion, and Russian disinformation—a conspiracy-driven pawn (useful idiot? Maybe, but that may be giving her too much credit). #ableg #cdnpoli #maplemaga www.bugeyedandshameless.com/p/danielle-s...

Ontarians take note. #DougFordIsCorrupt

The solution to Xitter not fucking around with your account is to get off the goddamn platform! You can do it, @atrupar.com! We have faith in you!

The Nazi salute should’ve been reason enough, but now the US is going to cut Ukraine’s access to Starlink if it won’t hand over critical minerals. What happens when the US wants northern Ontario’s resources? If Doug Ford really wants to “Protect Ontario,” he needs to #CancelStarlink now. #OnPoli

Bonnie Crombie 🇨🇦 - "Doug Ford is using your money to support the same people encouraging attacks on our independence. He can't be trusted as your premier." #cdnpoli #peipoli

“The MAGA cancer has been growing within Canada for years, aided by a Conservative Party whose ideology is dominated by American-funded libertarian think tanks that traffic in disinformation.”

Hey #DougFordIsCorrupt, are you paying attention yet? #Starlink

The story of my life...in Japanese. Glorious and joyful. These guys posted two songs on YouTube and then disappeared. A shame because they are very talented. youtu.be/MxYGqb1YdRY?...

It is happening, yay!! Minister Anita Anand informed the provinces Friday that Ottawa will remove more than half of federal internal trade barriers in a move to make Canada less reliant on the US, according to a senior federal government source. #Canada #cdnpoli 🍁 www.cbc.ca/news/politic...
