If you wanted to make an argument for electoral reform in Ontario, these seat and vote totals would be a pretty good place to start. First-past-the-post has its merits, but these are some pretty wild splits.

😢 In my head, she’s still a 14-year-old girl.

Congratulations @TeamHoman on your fifth Scotties victory! ❤️🇨🇦

CANADA 🇨🇦 WINS CANADA 🇨🇦 WINS CANADA 🇨🇦 WINS IN OVERTIME OH BABY FOR SURE

FLYING THE FLAG 🇨🇦 Seeing the maple leaf while covering sporting events around the world brings such me pride. The athletes wear it as a badge of honour and never take it for granted. Happy flag day to everyone back home in Canada. Celebrating with you all today.

Amazing

Hey man sorry to hear about all your political turmoil. Would it help if I scrolled around on the computer all day and drove myself insane?

That's my city! #Columbus #Ohio #50501protest

You absolute two-faced Conservative coward Doug Ford #Trump #tariffs #DougFordFailedOntario #DougFordMustGo #DougFordCancelStarlink #DougFordIsCorrupt #onpoli #cdnpoli #NeverVoteConservative #Starlink #ElonIsANazi www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Trudeau is being super nice, probably too nice, by going along with the pretext that any of this is about fentanyl or illegal border crossings. It is an attack on sovereignty and on allyship between Western nations, orchestrated by Russia. How long before we tell it like it is?

Now do Starlink.

Canadians, BUY CANADIAN. FUCK TRUMP. madeinca.ca/grocery-stor...

"Tonight, I am announcing Canada will be responding, with 25% tariffs against $155 billion worth of American goods ... With immediate tariffs on $30 billion on Tuesday, $125 billion later to allow for Canadian companies time to adjust" - Trudeau

How many more plane crashes until Trump gets kicked out of office?

Rick Mercer was already pointing out what a little shit Pierre Pollievre was 15 years ago. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnmg...

DEI exists to help right the historic wrong of unqualified white dudes always getting the gig.

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps. The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years. History is repeating. Pay attention.

American democracy is dead. RIP. Don’t let it happen anywhere else, please.

WTF is this? From the NYT. This is not fucking normal. It’s a threat and it’s not okay.

The economy grew under Trudeau 42% vs Harper's 18%

Can we make Elizabeth May the next prime minister? I think we should do that. #cdnpoli

I cannot emphasize this enough: FUCK THIS GUY

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau does not deserve the hatred & vitriol directed at him. The coordinated attacks on Mr. Trudeau by the transnational far right & foreign adversaries constitute an assault on Canadian values & democracy. Trudeau’s enemies are democracy’s enemies.

Canadian politics just got interesting again. Probably not in a good way. But it’ll be nice to see the first Liberal leadership race in 10 years and hopefully spend less time thinking about the US for a few months.

PETERMAN AND GALLANT WIN IT ALL Jocelyn Peterman and Brett Gallant left nothing to doubt, going undefeated to win the mixed doubles Olympic trials championship. They defeat Homan/Bottcher 8-7 and have the chance to represent Canada at the Olympics. Story and interviews to come.

Daylight savings time’s purpose is to save energy. Standard time means using more energy, hence why the oligarchs want it.

Hey, look, I was right.

On this date in 1941, Pearl Harbor was attacked by the imperial forces of Japan. The loss of life and destruction was horrific, and it pulled the U.S. into the war. For Japanese Americans, it was a terrifying time. Overnight, we became the “enemy within” because we were of Japanese descent. /1

“the man lowered his mask at the front desk of the hostel because he was flirting with the woman who checked him in.” This guy’s gonna get caught because he was horny. Smh. 🤦🏻‍♀️ apnews.com/article/unit...

Donald Trump can’t go to Canada or a bunch of other countries because he’s a convicted felon, and it’s too bad that this is not a punishment for him, because there’s no way he actually wants to go to Canada or other countries.

People who brag about not being politically correct tend also not to be factually, morally, or grammatically correct.

Too many people haven’t touched a book since they graduated high school and it shows.

The real story on Capitol Hill is the desire of GOP men to have transgender women in their bathrooms
