Vigil for those who lost their lives at the Lapu Lapu festival attack. Sunday April 27th, 2025.

Went and lit a candle in memory of those who lost their lives at the Lapu Lapu festival attack. Sunday April 27th, 2025.

Stephen Harper’s former top legal advisor: #cdnpoli

Welcome, @katiephang.bsky.social!

I care about climate, fairness, and justice. Those are NDP and Green values — and Liberal values too. Pierre Poilievre threatens all of it. Please, let's unite behind Mark Carney before it’s too late.

A desperate "dog whistle" stop in Cowtown.

I like a humble player as much as the next guy but Is it possible the #NFL is racist? Was he seen talking to Kaepernik or something by one of slave mentality owners? Some of the plugs drafted ahead of Sanders puts the whole integrity of the draft into question. #NFLdraft #ShedeurSanders

Mark Carney’s Liberals set to win a majority as poll analysis says Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives flatlining in Ontario. www.thestar.com/politics/fed... Find out more at nationalnewswatch.com

Stephen Harper’s tv ad for PP is a low blow. stiff and irrelevant, he lies that only #NeverPoilievre has a plan, yada yada yada. PM Carney is set to win a huge victory on Monday. #CanadaStrong vote! 🗳️ make it so! 🇨🇦

Was happy to get out and support Mark Carney heading into the last push of campaign 2025. Surrey B.C. at the Cloverdale Agriplex on Wednesday, April 23rd, 2025. #CanadaStrong #Liberals #MarkCarney #Election2025 #Canada

Stay at a #Marriot property, shop at #Costco. Reward good corporate governance. Who else?

Pierre hates “flies eating the bees’ honey.” He thinks pensioners are flies. He thinks EI claimants are flies. He thinks social aid recipients are flies. He thinks refugees are flies. Nobody gets more honey than the career MP who has NEVER worked a real job. He’s LORD OF THE FLIES. #cdnpoli

The Harmonica Class from The Korea-Town Seniors Center doing the American national anthem might be one of the most interesting anthems that's ever happened in pro sports. Hats off to the Kings. #ThatsCool #LaKings #NHL #WellDoneLadies

Street hockey and BBQ in Truro — pretty hard to beat days like this. #CanadaStrong

That's so cool and groundbreaking, I didn't know they had actual singing at Coachella. Beautiful.

Of course Harper is out there claiming the opposite of what is true in his bogus ad with that creepy grin. Reality is Poilievre is the only one who HASN'T released a plan,running out the clock on millions of voters when the advance polls close,robbing them of a chance to see a costed plan from him.

Things that happened in Canada the last time voter turnout exceeded 70% (1993): - Canadiens won their 24th Stanley Cup - Toronto Blue Jays won 2nd World Series - This Hour Has 22 Minutes premiered - Nunavut Act Passed Let's beat 70 this election! Get out and vote! #letsbeat70

Went with my heart over my brain on the final bracket. Was initially pencilling in an Avalanche/Canes final. Also, a little iffy on the Leafs—thinking Ottawa could surprise them. As an act of national unity will be cheering for any of the CNDN Teams that emerge. #CanucksFan #NHLBracket #WinnipegJets

Poilivere and his price-gouging Conservative "contestant's" once again running interference for their price-gouging grocers. This time time trying to pin continuing high grocery prices on single use plastics after grocers they're in the bag for pocketed the difference on axed carbon tax. #elexn2025

Pierre Poilievre wants to defund the CBC just so he can be surrounded and fluffed up by the clowns that disrupted the post-debate scrum. #debate2025

Poilievre's dodge on Indigenous incarceration was astounding. Just absolutely amazing that he could get away with that. #debate

Don’t forget to get out and vote!

Poilievre just described Canada as living in an episode of The Last of Us. #polifear #debate2025

Poilievre appears to be reeling after just finding out at the beginning of #debate2025 the shocking news he's not in fact running against Justin Trudeau.

Blanchet without a single candidate outside of Quebec participating in the English debate is bringing his usual slightly perturbed, disinterested political style to the English #debate2025. They might as well just give him a smoke and a drink and just accept it for the poli-tainment that it is.

Did Singh, Poilievre, Carney chip in together on a sale on identical Blue suit and Blue tie material? They look an old boy band when in the same shot. #debate2025

Carney's campaign is like that old Volvo line “they’re boxy but they’re good". #cdnpoli

The strategy of hoping Carney would flounder was a very poor one. #debate #elxn2025

Yves-François Blanchet and Pierre Poilievre, teaming up like a bad buddy movie. #cdnpoli #elxn2025 #debate

Thank you, Neil, for your support. Keep on Rockin’ in the Free World. tinyurl.com/yzmj52yj

An open letter from Neil Young to Mark Carney. #NeilYoung #MarkCarney #CanadaStrong

I appreciate #CKNW foisting the bootleg-maga Ben Mulroney Show on lifetime listeners. It has made me move the dial to CBC Radio, and it's now just staying there no matter what time of day, wherever I have it on. Well played. #ThankYou

Trump will never get Canada or Greenland but random Americans get free travel to El Salvador as a consolation.

I guess we add El Salvador to the do not buy list, that's clothing, coffee and other products.

"I think this is a very dangerous. We have a Charter of Rights and fundamental Freedoms in this country, and it's the responsibility...of the prime minister...to defend...those fundamental rights," said PM Mark Carney in response to Poilievre's Sec. 33 pledge #cdnpoli

Trump is talking about shuttering publications and networks he disagrees with. He's talking about deporting and imprisoning Americans who dissent. This is unprecedented and undemocratic. Wake up America.

All the trashing of Carney's French language abilities by Poilievre has done is lower expectations. Carney will come out of the French debate ahead of Poilievre as his intelligence, likability, and policies translate very clearly in a way that Poilievre is incapable of communicating in any language.

I was hoping we could pull one out for the Flames fans. Oh well. #Canucks

Shart of the deal.

D-Petey's toughness is s reminiscent of a young Mattias Ohlund. Just great to see developing. #canucks
