Happy Easter to all those working for Elections Canada this weekend. The hours are long, family gatherings are missed; thank you for supporting elections that are important to our democracy! 🐰

Look behind headlines to understand state of play. Voter turnout is key. Old adage: Only poll that counts is on Election Day. To stop CPC, LPC must nominate candidates, present strong platform, run a flawless campaign, resurrect ground game & fill war chest. #NeverCPC angusreid.org/federal-poll...

@cbcnews.ca I get that you're concerned that PP will defund you but Rosemary's & others reporting is awful.

Important information.

Hey @cbcnews.ca Carney reducing cabinet size is a good thing. Rosie & David spinning it as such a negative action is a bad look.

As a female combat veteran I remember the 5000 Canadians in Operation Desert Storm. I'll never forget their sacrifice.Vance a veteran should be ashamed of himself. I'll be protesting with vets March 14th at noon. I encourage the rest of you to join us at your Capitol in all 50 states.

By imposing tariffs, US president has broken the agreement he negotiated and signed with Canada during his 1st term. Why would Canada or any country trust him with any agreement now? #Notariifs #ElbowsUp

Time to stop buying from Walmart, Costco & Amazon. Get off Facebook, Instagram & 'X' . Yes Canadian workers will be affected but those company owners have influence. #Elbowsup

I feel like crying. Hang in there Ukraine 🇺🇦

Proud to support Ukraine at the rally in Toronto. 🇱🇹🇺🇦🇨🇦

Ontario: It doesn't matter if polls say that Doug Ford's PCP is leading. Polls aren't elections. Don't let anything dissuade you from voting.

Rally in Toronto is on Feb 23 @ 3pm at Nathan Phillips Square. Come and support Ukraine and democracy.

We need to support those who will lose their jobs as a result of tariffs &/or buy Canadian movement. My son works for a US co, 40 employees in Canada; a very anxious time for them. @jagmeetsingh.ca #tariffsincanada #justintrudeau

So we’ve got Doug Ford saying he was 100% thrilled Trump won the election, we’ve got Poilievre’s CPC saying Canadians being patriotic because of Trump is a problem for the CPC campaign, and there’s Danielle Smith enjoying brunch crepes at Mar-a-Lago. These Conservatives are just not worth the cost.

Fentanyl from Mexico: 21,000 pounds. Fentanyl from Canada: 43 pounds. As someone who works in Canada nearly half the year, i love our northern neighbor and regret the utter stupidity of punching them in the face. Why must our great country rebrand itself as the "as*hole of the world"?

During these crazy times, let's remember to be kind to those in Canada who work for US companies and are feeling anxious about their future as a result of the unreasonable actions by Trump. My son for one. #tariffs #tradewar

This is not a Trump tariff election. This is a Ford failed Ontario election. This is an RCMP investigation election This is a healthcare election This is a LTC election This is a housing election This is not about tariffs This is about his failures #ONpo

Hey DoFo, pls clarify why it would be a disaster if Marit Stiles or Bonnie Crombie were negotiating with Trump. Are you anti-women? #onpoli #onelection

NEW: Just over a week after Ontario Premier Doug Ford held a news conference to announce the province was planning to send firefighters and waterbombers to California, it turns out a formal ask hasn't come. And doesn't seem likely at all now. #onpoli

Love this @theomoudakis.bsky.social 🍁🇨🇦💙 Bravo!! 😂👏👏
