Better for unity. Better against Trump. Better for the economy. Oh, and he has his security clearance. Mark Carney is better for Canada. #TeamCanada #CanadaStrong

Prime Minister Mark Carney is a renowned economist with a PhD from Oxford who served as the Governor of the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England. Pierre Poilievre has no experience in anything outside of the political sphere. The choice is clear.

I’ve been eagerly anticipating testing out Brisk Teaching’s new podcast feature, curious to see if it supports multiple languages or just English. This morning, I finally had the chance to try it, and I was thrilled by how simple it was to create a short podcast in French!

"À la différence du batch cooking, où tous les ingrédients sont épluchés, coupés pour la semaine, le slash cooking consiste à cuisiner UNE recette en quantité généreuse pour la décliner en différents plats au fur et à mesure de la semaine." C'est très courant pour moi.

“…I am furious that CTV caved. Rachel became a symbol of the threats journalists face. Now, she is a symbol of what it means when institutions fail to defend them”

Liberation Day in France is June 6th. But Canadians didn't celebrate until the job was done. The criminal from Mar-A-Lago is selling his bogus "Liberation" Day. Lol. Canadians have another job to do. We will celebrate when Donald is done. And we will still be standing. True. North. Strong. Free.

Wow, folks...I am so incredibly grateful (and a lil overwhelmed, in a good way!) for the response to this. It's heartening to see how many care about an issue that is SO much bigger than any one journalist. It's a trend, and we have to stop it. You all give me hope we might be able to do that. ❤️

“Pierre Poilievre has always had a woman problem — this isn’t new. His favourability among women has been consistently poor — peaking at 30% — and his latest comments about women’s biological clocks demonstrate once again how insanely out of touch the Conservative Party has become.”

If you are worried about disinformation and media manipulation in this election give a pass to @ctvyourmorning.bsky.social They caved to pressure from Pierre Poiievre's online posse in their continual harassment of @rachelgilmore.bsky.social She is a truth teller. CTV is not.

Oh my gosh! Sounds terrible 😄 Honestly other than complaining the guy has zero platform and no legs to stand on. His far fetched proposals and tax cuts only benefit his weathly friends and will eliminate every social program families, especially women really count on. #neverCONServative

Pierre Poilievre knows what he said was a dog whistle to his incel base as well as the misogynistic groups of individuals who call themselves "Alpha males." We know how he treats female journalists who ask tough questions or fact-check him.

I am disgusted with CTV's cowardice. They have lost all credibility with this move, and Canadians should not be turning to them as a trusted news source in the future. #BoycottCTV

Cannot stress enough how dangerous this is as a precedent. @ctvyourmorning.bsky.social

Absolutely shameful that CTV caved to a disingenuous right-wing pressure campaign instead of standing their ground. It presents even more red flags about the state of the media in Canada. @rachelgilmore.bsky.social did not deserve to be treated this way.
