Hey CBC, don’t do this. It’s not a “proposal.” Having different wording on your website won’t diminish the harm done by having Canada’s national broadcaster treat this as a serious conversation (see below for how it’s being portrayed on the relatively sane CPAC…). Pull out of this disaster now.

CSPAN as well. Jeez. @ianhanomansing.bsky.social I think this has disastrous implications. I’m curious what our federal government/negotiators think of this entertainment stunt. I question the judgement of normalizing this discussion that has been described as a threat to our national security.

The polar bear in my daughter’s climate change project has broken my heart

"In December, Auditor General Shelley Spence revealed that the province spent a total of $103.5 million on advertising in the previous year... Much of the language used in the publicly funded ads mirrored talking points used by Doug Ford and the Progressive Conservative Party..." $103. Million.

The RCMP are still silent on this file and its a disgrace. kitchener.citynews.ca/2025/01/27/o...

@charlieangus104.bsky.social I’ve just read that CBC @ianhanomansing.bsky.social is hosting a show on the topic of Canada becoming a 51st state - in a joint broadcast with an American host. I’m feeling very angry about this. What are your thoughts? www.cbc.ca/amp/1.7461625

This is a Rick Mercer bit from 2010! about Pierre Poilievre. Should be a Liberal ad. youtu.be/gnmgL5CZqfs?...

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.

For Canadian political junkies, check out this podcast hosted by Peter Mansbridge. Started listening recently. Have always enjoyed Chantal Hebert’s perspectives, she is on regularly. youtu.be/ZP1a0AVrWq8?...

This is astounding. It shows Albertans paid double - sometimes triple! - for surgeries at private surgical facilities connected to friends of the UCP than through AHS. And the Premier’s staff & Health Minister allegedly pressured & then fired the CEO of AHS when she asked questions about them.

@davidwcochrane.bsky.social You’ve mentioned a number of times that you’d like Carney to come on your show. I agree! I have watched him on other shows, incl RosemaryBarton. Has Poilievre been on P&P? Would enjoy seeing that interview as well.

Ruby Dhalla disqualified from Liberal leadership race. Campaign irregularities around financing and foreign interference. Her platform was very anti-Liberal. LPC should have done better vetting.

🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦YES!!! F🍁CK YOU TRUMP🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

FUCKING EHHHHHH!!!! Yes!!!!! Canada 🇨🇦

HAHAHAHA EAT SHIT USA

The kids are alright. They know Canada is not broken.

This is how Mitch McConnell should be remembered: Without him, there’s no President Trump right now—he had the chance to convict during impeachment and end it, but he didn’t. Without him, there’s no stacked conservative Supreme Court—you’d have more rights today.

I saw Mark Carney speak tonight. A few observations: He’s very clear-eyed about our situation with the U.S. His economic focus is using our vast resources to build industry (processing those raw materials rather than simply exporting). He’s bent on ensuring we generate income to pay for our needs.
