Pierre Poilievre wants to put the Charter through a paper shredder and everyone under the age of 40 doesn’t seem to understand what that means and you’re freaking me out.

Ford government guts Endangered Species Act, slashes wildlife protections in Ontario ecojustice.ca/news/ford-go... He’s at it again. F the environment for $$$$$ in his pocket.

Vote like we’re 20 points down, friends.

Pierre Poilievre denounced the NDP's national dental care plan as "socialistic." He told Jordan Peterson he would "fiercely resist" our socialist policies. But his numbers are tanking. Now he says he will support dental care. You can't trust MAGA-MINI Pierre. www.youtube.com/shorts/pagfv...

To All my Canadian Followers, this Truth puts someone in Bed with Trump. Vote Accordingly 👏👊😎🇨🇦

Truer words were never spoken.

“Sharing the stage with Shapiro is ‘something that’s not going to sit well with most Canadians. Even in her base…who aren’t going to particularly like the idea of her appearing to take too lightly … disrespect for Canada’s sovereignty.’” calgaryherald.com/news/politic...

“The US spent 8 decades building an international system of rules, norms and values that has produced the longest period of great power peace and global prosperity in human history.” Fareed Zakaria on how upending the world order will only weaken America: www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Trump: We're going to tariff everything coming from Canada because reasons! Trudeau: Okay, so here are YOUR new tariffs, buddy. Ford: Good luck getting power from us! Carney: Oh, you want to start a trade war, do you, Voldemort? Poilievre: Eats apple loudly.

Is there a reason why Danielle Smith is traveling to Florida on taxpayers’ dime to participate in a far-right talk show that routinely has its content removed for hate speech? www.forbes.com/sites/antoni... #ableg

It’s true! Watch out 🍁

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

Canada is nothing like the US. Today proves it ... again! US: Trump ambushed a loyal ally, presumably so that he can soon make a deal with the dictator of Russia to sell out Ukraine. 😡 CANADA: Today Canada extends temporary visa application window for Ukrainians. 🍁💙💛 #CdnPoli #CanadaIsNotForSale

I always find it striking how amicable & polite the leadership debates of left & centre political parties are. They even hug at the end. Contrast that w/ the hostility of CPC & GOP debates. Really tells you something about the types of people the parties attract 🤔. #cdnpoli

Reminder: Ford is a Trump wannabe. He thinks these types of comments make him relatable to the electorate, all the while scheming to sell out the province, to the benefit of himself and his cronies. #DontGetCONned #VoteFordOut

Canada next, please.

Here we go again. Campaigning on f*cking booze. Doug Ford is promising to remove the minimum price for liquor if re-elected, meaning the LCBO could sell it for as low as it wants. Ford says “That’s like a tax break” “Why do we have to have a base? Let’s reduce the cost of that” #cdnpoli #onpoli

If Doug Ford wins a 3rd term, most likely his last, he will open up the Greenbelt to developers. He's made many promises to numerous developers to open it. He's wanted to do it forever. Expect him to do it in his last term on the way out.

Let’s make this country even better. Our latest ad. youtu.be/ZhCotqYGleI?...

The wages of the richest 1% have skyrocketed 182% since 1979.  Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth.  Trickle down economics was always a hoax.

I'm sharing an image a day to celebrate the vibrant and unique culture and history of Canada. Today, it is the giant wooden head that warned people to drive carefully on the highway between Revelstoke and Golden, BC. in 1954. #ProudlyCanadian 📸LAC 4814882

@ianhanomansing.bsky.social see how stupid that sounds?

On this day in 1916, Molly Kool was born in Alma, New Brunswick. She became one of the first registered female sea captains in North America and Canada's first female Master Mariner. Let's learn more about her life! 🧵1/8

Just saw someone refer to DOGE as Dangerous Oligarchs Grabbing Everything and I think that might be even better than Department Of Getting Even.

G-Oh Canada. We have the skills, we have the people. We will step up while the US dies.

We know EM will attempt to affect our elections. He needs to be stopped. you.leadnow.ca/petitions/ba... you.leadnow.ca/petitions/ba...

It's so sad that they went with "Third Term" when "Third Reich" was right there waiting for them.
