Working on a paper, drinking pots of JustUs Coffee and listening to CBC Radio 2, while a sensible Liberal team is out there leading in the polls. It’s a good day. ☀️🇨🇦 #canada #cdnpoli

Let’s set the record straight on CBC executive pay. Some critics want you to believe CBC execs are raking it in—but here’s the truth: 🔍 CBC salaries are public and modest. Sources in the comments.

Canada is everything.

📢 Save the CBC – Because Canada Deserves Better 📢 What if the stories that connect us disappeared? What if the news that informs us was silenced? What if the voices that reflect us faded? What if the ties that hold us together snapped? This isn’t just a what if. It’s happening. #SaveTheCBC

As we watch Trump's attack on universities, remember that Poilievre promises to appoint a "Free Speech Guardian" for universities. A university could lose its federal funding if this politically appointed "guardian" recommends it.

There is a famous story in my family about my little brother throwing a toddler tantrum and when he was finally given what he wanted, so caught up in the meltdown, he shouted “I don’t want what I want!” That’s exactly what the Tories sound like right now. #cdnpoli #torytantrum

Here we go!!! Day 1 in Canada with our new Prime Minister, Mark Carney. Gotta say... I have a good feeling. A feeling that the right person has stepped to the helm at the right time in history. Fingers crossed. Elbows up. 🇨🇦

Sure wish @cbcradiocanada.bsky.social would take to this platform! #savecbc #cdnpoli #publicbroadcasting @savethecbc.bsky.social

The person advising PP on comms needs to stop. Stating that Carney is a sneaky man who is trying to trick us reeks of desperation. Literally conspiracy theory land. Why not make the case for why you’d be a good PM, Pierre? Remember that? Pierre for PM? We don’t see that anymore. 🧐 #cdnpoli

It’s a good day. 🇨🇦 #cdnpoli

❤️

Sunny and cold in the hub of #NovaScotia today. Julie is playing great music on the 2, #coffee is rolling, and I’m reading #Canadian history. Good day. ☀️ 🇨🇦 #cbcradio #amreading #publicbroadcasting

@markjcarney.bsky.social's best riding: Ottawa Ctr: 2270 votes. @chrystia-freeland.bsky.social's best: her own University-Rosedale: 188. But Carney took 1322 there. @karinagould.bsky.social 's best: her own Burlington with 190. Carney took 818 there. Asonishingly, Carney won EVERY SINGLE RIDING.

Congratulations to @mark-carney.bsky.social on being named the new leader of the Liberal Party of Canada. My team and I look forward to collaborating together as we all work to make life better for the People of New Brunswick.

Mark Carney wins 85.9% of the votes for a decisive first ballot victory. He is the new Liberal leader and prime minister designate. He will officially become PM likely later this week. The first PM in Canada to have never held elected office. Expect an election soon.

Federal - The Liberal party says 151.9K members voted in the leadership election When Trudeau was elected as leader in 2013, there were 104.5K voters in that leadership election

Introducing our new Liberal Leader, Mark Carney!

Congratulations, 🇨🇦 Prime Minister Mark Carney with more than 85% of the vote! #elbowsup

Prime Minister Carney. Let’s go! 💪 #cdnpoli @liberalca.bsky.social @mark-carney.bsky.social @markcarneyforpm.bsky.social

@mark-carney.bsky.social will win tonight and he needs to immediately put @karinagould.bsky.social in a position of influence within cabinet. Carney has the experience and Gould has the vision. #cdnpoli

For the first time in four years, the Liberals have cracked 40% in the polls I take a deeper look at this poll, and model out the results here👇 open.substack.com/pub/canadian...
