We Canadians can show any of 33 different pieces of ID to be eligible to vote. Everything from a letter from your priest to a Driver's License. I have NEVER heard of a Canadian that was NOT permitted to register AND vote on election day. A true democracy does not live in fear of its electorate. 🇨🇦

If Kristi Noem can go down to El Salvador and take concentration camp selfies, then DOJ can figure out where Abrego Garcia is. Just start jailing people for contempt of court until they find out.

“How we first begin to hate” is one thing I explain in my book covering the rise of Nazis — and it has MUCH TO DO with 19th c misogyny, so you can be sure that so much of what’s wrong on the Left as well as the Right has to do with a deep seated hatred of and desire to use and abuse women.

Gomez: It doesn't matter if you're young, old, or Gen X, Gen Z. We are now a new generation. We are the fuck around and find out generation. Gomez: Fuck around Crowd: Find out

Pingu reprazentin’ Tariffs are for losers.

Please Canada, don’t screw this up. PM Carney is prepared for what’s coming our way. He has a plan. He’s telling us what he can about that plan. We need him. VOTE

We need to encourage businesses to show the Trump Tariff Tax on their receipts and invoices. 👇

The “tariff scheme“ is a farce. Well, elect a clown, expect a circus.

No! Stop this, major media! That’s _not_ what just happened! DOJ at _no_ point made _any_ commitment to “bring Garcia home,” nor did it ask for “more time” to “bring Garcia home.” It said that Garcia is in the custody of El Salvador and the court has no jurisdiction there. Get it right, dammit!

The New York Times recently compared Pierre Poilievre’s politics to Donald Trump’s…calling it a shift toward divisive, populist tactics. This election, let’s choose a path rooted in Canadian values, not imported ideologies. We’ve seen what’s happening in the U.S. Not here. Not now #NeverPoiLIEvre

@thisisbillkelly.bsky.social Stephen Harper has endorsed Pierre Poilievre. Harper runs an organization that promotes authoritarianism, and is seen as a friend to authoritarian leaders like Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and India's Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi youtu.be/c4sA03AmWXc?...

This picture of Whitmer is a legitimately stunningly perfect depiction of the Democratic Party right now. A bunch of fucking cowards capitulating and complying. Secretly totally on board with fascism while hiding behind their labels and “lesser of two evils you have no choice but to vote for me”.

#NeverPoilievre He’s a misogynist. Remember MGTOW? And he embraces anti-choice candidates. As the father of three daughters, this is unacceptable to me.

A helpful guide to the current state of US trade policy:

So, let’s GET LOUD, folks! 👇 Who’s with me?! 🤚✨

"We owe it to ourselves, and to future generations, to evaluate each candidate not through the distorted lens of disinformation, but by their record, their competence, and their commitment to Canada’s future." GREAT read👇

It’s shocking how many Canadians don’t know the different jurisdictions and responsibilities of federal vs provincial vs municipal governments. Many politicians take full advantage of that ignorance, blaming other levels for their own malfeasance and failure to provide, particularly Conservatives.

Good advice.

Reminder as we watch measles rates climb in Canada that *this* is Poilievre's attitude towards vaccination during a public health emergency. MMR vaccination has long been mandated for health care workers. Would a Poilievre govt ban the MMR mandate in health care during a huge measles outbreak?

An important, if disturbing, article on how young men are flocking to the Conservatives. They hate “woke,” feel disenfranchised, and that all decks are stacked against them. Of course, the right panders to and inflames their disaffection. What can we do about it? www.cbc.ca/news/investi...

It remains deeply weird and suspect to me that the Canadian media keeps poking at Mark Carney for potential scandals while *completely ignoring* Pierre Poilievre’s “I won’t get a security clearance and no you cannot ask why” neon sign above his head 🫤

I just got back from a couple days in Montreal and the city is wonderful but it's a little weird being around unarmed citizens with healthcare who understand three syllable words.

Law grads, save your soul. Don't apply to these firms. Make them toxic. There are other ways to make money and do good work. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/11/b...

Look! Rempel lives in Oklahoma. She has for at least 8 years. Just shows up in parliament minimum amount of time needed. She does not give af about Calgary or Alberta or Canada. Just send her packing for the last time.

No matter what the polls say… vote! Take a neighbour, a friend, drive someone who can’t get there. #NeverPoiLIEvre #neverCONServative

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act. Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes? Staffer: a DL and birth certificate. Me: The documents don’t match Staffer: Then a marriage certificate. Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too? Staffer: No Me: See the problem?
