Poilievre: 200,000 homes were built when I held the housing file in Harper's cabinet. Fact: Only 3,742 homes were built with fed gov help. 200,000 is impossible, there were only 195,535 starts total in 2015, almost all private w/o fed help. #cdnpoli #canpoli www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Two grandparents screamed at a nine-year-old girl with a pixie haircut in a youth shot put event in Kelowna two years ago. The gross groomer-screaming panic is still out there in the world. www.thestar.com/opinion/star...

As British soldiers were being evacuated from Dunkirk, the 1st Canadian Division was already in the UK as the only fully armed force to defend the shores. This photo of Canadians in the Battle of Britain is displayed across from our parliament. We fought fascism from day 1. Don't fuck with us.

This is Trumpian. Don't call it anything else.

Ewww, just like the Republicans are obsessed with women's reproduction.

As impressive as these images are, the ones of small towns in red states are even more impressive. It's harder to get lost in a crowd, there. Proud of you all!

Reuters: 500 LAW FIRMS JOIN COURT BRIEF SUPPORTING PERKINS COIE LAWSUIT AGAINST TRUMP ADMINISTRATION - COURT FILING

So he wants to pull a Trump.

Attn: @mark-carney.bsky.social @charlieangus104.bsky.social @jagmeetsingh.ca Canada needs an outright ban on X, but anything to slow down the lies will help. (I was about to call it misinformation, but let's call it what it really is.)

Good day to remember that a US President has no inherent power over tariffs whatsoever. It’s not like war powers or pardons. It’s entirely delegated by Congress to deal with emergencies. GOP Congress cld modify that law tonight and bring this to a screeching halt.

Periodic reminder, America, you got a fucking do over, and you did this.

The far right opposes science because the far right's views are not based on reliable evidence, they are based on emotions, conspiracy theories, and disinformation. Science is the trusted gatekeeper for facts and logic, so it is de facto the enemy.

So Trump is raging, repeating annexation threats, giving fantastical and bizarre reasons for the tariffs, hasn't made a concrete ask to Canada's government, and this is your approach? How strange.

The cause of the “uncertainty” is the same guy who signed the trade agreement in the first place! Trump violated it! Who’s to say he won’t violate a new one! Is Poilievre really this stupid

So those checks gonna bounce?

Sen. Cory Booker's speech on the Senate floor went for 25 hours and 4 minutes. His final words: "Let's get in good trouble, my friend. Madam President, I yield the floor."

“I knew that you had that troll base and I knew that we would get some sort of reaction, but I really did not realize the extent of the volume of that push back that we had.” As women journalists are relentlessly and disproportionately harassed, it’s fair to ask where are you going with this CTV?

Cowards.

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at McMaster University have discovered a NEW peptide antibiotic that targets a broad range of disease-causing bacteria INCLUDING those RESISTANT to existing antibiotics. This discovery marks the first potential new class of antibiotics in NEARLY 30 YEARS. 🧪🧵⬇️

Danielle Smith needs to be called out for what she is: a collaborator.

So Smith joked around when Shapiro raised 51st state talk, helped raise money for a far-right propaganda mill, and chilled with terrible people. This helps Canada … how?

Incredible. Zero sense of national mood & reality, or has it and DNGAF. Either way, an internal threat that has to be managed.
