Prime Minister Mark Carney 🇨🇦 - #cdnpoli Vote for our kids, grandkids, and future generations.

Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

That … and all the government spending on his golfing trips!

I stand with the penguins of Heard and McDonald Islands!

Almost half of the country’s health insurance now rests in the hands of a man who once sold miracle pills — with zero proof they worked — on daytime TV.

I needed to hear this. Maybe you do too. “Fear has a way of being contagious… courage is also contagious.” — Kamala Harris Man, I miss her.

Listen to Canada's Prime Minister. He answers a reporter's question with an in-depth example of how he sees restructuring Canada's economy. Absolutely brilliant and only in the job a week. #canpoli www.tiktok.com/@canadahoc/v...

Canadian physician, Dr. Danielle Martin owns the Americans! #cdnpoli

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

Very encouraging to see that 2/3 of Americans oppose tariffs on Canada! That includes a clear majority of Republican voters. We are in the fight of our lives to defend Canada against the outrageous attacks of the US Administration. #cdnpoli

Buttigieg: What if this had, in fact, gone to somebody else? I mean, somebody who could plausibly be in some of these people's cell phones. I don't know, the Chinese ambassador or Russian negotiator. And the other question on my mind is how many other times has something like this happened?

Could Not Have Said It Better!!!

Let’s all welcome @barackobama.bsky.social to Bluesky! 🦋

Yes. This really happened. They used a group chat to plan strikes on a foreign country. No, Signal is not an authorized platform for national security information.

But her emails…

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense. I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

This is so disturbing.

It's the Spring Equinox - the first astronomical day of spring! ☀️ Longer days. Lighter evenings. Sunshine warm on your skin, birds singing, blossom in the branches.

The Trump administration has just removed a federal ban on contractors from having segregated restaurants, waiting rooms, and drinking fountains. This is a result of Trump’s executive order to combat DEI.

Sadly true. But bravo for cartoonist!

A strong, secure Arctic is essential to Canada’s sovereignty. The world is changing. Our adversaries are watching. We’re making investments now to keep Canada safe for generations to come. ici.radio-canada.ca/rci/en/news/...

Ahead of Germany’s election, with anti-immigrant sentiment rising, they released viral videos showing life without immigrants. History proves that when a country starts erasing certain people, it doesn’t end well. 🧵

Any Canadian trying to travel to the US should be aware of the risks of detention and harsh treatment by ICE. This young woman was taken at the US-Mexico border and detained for nearly two weeks in a holding cell with 30 others. My advice: Stay away from the US. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I have spent a blissful 30 minutes following all of the alt national parks accounts on Bluesky and now I’m going to go and find the alt government agencies and probably the Great Lakes and volcano accounts, which used to be my favorite part of Twitter. Please let me know if there’s anything else!

The “blood worm moon,” so named for the reddish hue of its glow and the time of year it’s occurring, will be visible in every U.S. state.

It started out as a joke Yesterday, the US President told his military to make plans to invade, by force, Panama. He announced his plans to annex Greenland - in front of the NATO head. He said the only way out for Canada was to become part of the U.S. This is not a joke. War is coming.

When the history of this time is written down, the cowardice will be remembered as much as the fascism
