A song for your Friday listening from a great Canadian artist. music.apple.com/ca/album/the...

He told Americans what he’d do and yet… Let us not make the same mistake Canada. #nevervoteconservative youtube.com/shorts/VHD-r...

Pierre Poilievre year after year tells us that Canada is broken. How can he speak for a Canada he doesn't respect? #cdnpoli #peipoli

I don’t want to hear about your regrets. Take heed Canada - let’s not repeat the error of Americans. #conservativesdontcareaboutyou #neverpoilievre #vote Full video link ⬆️

What a ski day! ⛷️⛷️ weather.com/science/weat...

Pierre Poilievre stated he is open to selling our water to the US. This is not new. Same old playbook. Give him 4 years, he WILL sell our resources and our sovereignty. #cdnpoli #peipoli

MPP John Fraser 🇨🇦 - Someone should have let Doug Ford know that Groundhog Day was last weekend. #cdnpoli #onpoli #peipoli

Found this to be very sobering and on point. Not sure what the American public are going to do. But Canada, take note…I’m talking to you Ontario. Don’t let Doug & Elon in your realm. They’re malignant. youtube.com/watch?v=BIOa...

As far as mental incapacity goes, Doug Ford exhibits the same characterizations as Donald Trump. Does he really believe Ontarians (Canadians) forget him trash talking our Prime Minister? #cdnpoli #onpoli #peipoli

NEVER trust ANYTHING #DougFord says. He is a thoroughly corrupt conman. His deal with Musk is back on. Read the attached thread for the outrageously suspicious overpriced $100M sweetheart deal Ford gave to Musk’s #Starlink. #VoteFordOut #Onpoli

#MarkCarney is just so smart, so quick, so knowledgeable. It’s undeniable. The interviewer throws in a couple of false premises & Carney immediately shuts it down while sounding measured and even tempered. #cdnpoli

Pierre Poilievre is on the outside looking in. No influence whatsoever. No security clearance. No input into govt policy. Our govt is negotiating with Premiers, not him. So he continues to spit out Carbon Tax Carney, Justinflation. What a total insignificant, Troll he is. #cdnpoli #peipoli

Wow! There’s a new idea…NOT. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Rare animal that still exist.

Promise made, promise kept: Thanks to the UCP, Alberta workers now face a significant ‘Alberta Disadvantage’ albertapolitics.ca/2025/01/prom...

This is a no-brainer: a Granny who wants to volunteer at a school lunch program has to get a security clearance. And yet Pierre Poilievre who lives in a 19-room mansion funded by the taxpayer refuses or can't get a security clearance. Something stinks here. www.thestar.com/politics/fed...

Colombia didn't "cave" to Trump: January 27, 2025 open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

“we are the opposite of Nazi’s” Calling Trump and Cabinet for what they are . 👏 www.cbc.ca/news/world/t...

I’ve been saying #ElonMusk is a sociopath for years now. I don’t buy that he has autism. He uses that claim to excuse himself & deflect. To disarm people & play for sympathy & broader tolerance for his behaviour. It works. I’ve lost count of how often people cite “autism” to excuse him.

Wow! Just wow! youtube.com/watch?v=KKz9...

"Oh Canada" plays at the Kitzbuehel Downhill for the first time since 1983. 42 years. Jack Crawford brings Canada back to the pinnacle of alpine ski racing, with Cam Alexander third. What a performance.

Don't let Elon Musk interfere in our elections. Here is my letter to Elections Canada to protect our electoral process from interference by the X algorithm. www.charlieangus.ca/_files/ugd/5... If you are worried about Musk's extremism please send an email to: [email protected]

“A 2022 report by the CBC revealed that Pierre Poilievre had hired the team behind Canada Proud to ‘boost his messages online’ — an organization that specializes in anti-Trudeau rage-bait and whose sole mission is to defeat Justin Trudeau. Poilievre and the CPC’s chief strategy is distortion.”

Just remember Trump's team endorsed Pierre Poilievre!

The largest seizure of cocaine ever seized by Toronto’s Drug Squad. 875 kilos worth 83 million dollars. The Mexican Cartel were the distributors. 6 people arrested. The drugs came into Canada from the US. It was smuggled into The US from Mexico. Nice police work. #cdnpoli #peipoli #onpoli

The fash meter was so off the charts yesterday, I missed Ivanka’s Serena “Under His Eye” Waterford look. Either that or a fascist air hostess at Uber Alles Airlines. #TrumpInauguration

There is a reason that Elon Musk is stumping for Pierre Poilievre. A reason he chose to be interviewed with Mar-a-Lago loser Jordan Peterson. Watch this investigative look into Trump's guy in Canada. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zl9b...

Looks like Danielle Smith has a flag for her Vichy administration. She gives Trump's stars and stripes top billing. She has blanked out our Maple Leaf with a battle cry for oil giants. Did Kevin O'Leary help design the logo? Canada needs to stand up to the quislings.

Please check out this wide ranging interview with Steve Paikin. We talk politics, grassroots democracy, the fights I have had on social media and my punk rock attitude to politics. I talk about my hopes and fears for the nation at this time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXdI...

We should all be concerned about a loss of democracy. youtube.com/shorts/4nrq8...

Censorship comes in many forms. Personally, I have no interest in a “documentary” on Melania funded by Jeff Bezos. www.cbc.ca/news/enterta...

Liberal MP Nate Erskine-Smith 🇨🇦 - "No, I’m not running for leader." #cdnpoli #peipoli www.youtube.com/watch?v=XB1O...

Today in #bcpoli the leader of the opposition is doubling down on his election loss saying it was stolen. just a reminder for those in BC media, to ask him about his party President's tweet after the election.

As Trump threatens Canada Poilievre leans into the MAGA playbook of singing the tired old hits of the extremist right. This is a good analysis of how sucking up to MAGA is exposing Poilievre and his Conservative MPs for who they really are. tparkin.substack.com/p/pierre-poi...
