The Fascist States of America🇺🇸 have adopted political violence as a way of life. Meanwhile, in our peaceable 🇨🇦kingdom, we have a Conservative leader who delights in cozying up to the Canadian Coalition for “Firearm Rights” which seems to want guns for practically everyone, everywhere. 🤷🏼🙄🤷🏼

A group of us have arrived on the Senate floor to challenge our colleagues - on both sides of the aside - to rise to this moment and jointly condemn what has happened to Sen. Padilla. Yes we still need to collect the full facts, but this appears to be a defining moment for the country.
