Asking a stupid and dangerous question on a radio show doesn’t change the fact it’s a stupid and dangerous question that has infuriated Canadians *cross country* Shame on everyone who approved this inane show. Long live Canada.

“Ontario's top bureaucrat is admonishing PC Leader Doug Ford and his staff for allegedly trying to use his Washington D.C. trip last week to the party's advantage in the election campaign.” Time to stop calling Doug to the Principal’s office like this. Time to expel him once and for all.

As Trump complains about Canada, data shows most crime guns seized in GTA come from U.S. flip.it/pG1p-j

"In December, Auditor General Shelley Spence revealed that the province spent a total of $103.5 million on advertising in the previous year... Much of the language used in the publicly funded ads mirrored talking points used by Doug Ford and the Progressive Conservative Party..." $103. Million.

Canada represents everything the United States will never be, and the United States represents everything Canada will never become.

Where are the Insurance companies who cover these events and their celebrities for liabilities? I’d think they’d be screaming for mitigations & precautions because their money making show ponies are dropping like flies. #CovidIsNotOver #AirborneTransmission

Come on #ONTARIO. MAKE SURE YOU VOTE

Hey CBC, don’t do this. It’s not a “proposal.” Having different wording on your website won’t diminish the harm done by having Canada’s national broadcaster treat this as a serious conversation (see below for how it’s being portrayed on the relatively sane CPAC…). Pull out of this disaster now.

The Pope is 88 and in a critical care unit with sepsis. This isn’t generally a story that has a happy ending 😔

Milk prices in California will be going up.

Q: How evil do you have to be to cut a Dolly book program? A: Pretty f*cking evil. Solution: Dolly for Prez! Dolly Parton Calls Out Indiana Gov Over Plan to Dump Her Imagination Library www.thedailybeast.com/dolly-parton... cc @drjengunter.bsky.social

You know who called this months ago? @corruptario.bsky.social

This hits hard.

Doug Ford support Trump. Does he support this too?

#Ontario #FORD has used the US #tariffthreat as an election move. His $85K/month to US #lobbyists, use of #campaignstaffers, and 2 #tripstoDC were election plans. He “quit his job at the most important time, to call an #electionearly.” THE ELECTION IS #self-serving.

That is absolutely my expectation. That Libs and NDP and Greens will prevent Cons from taking control in a minority. But to get there, we need everyone to vote strategically. Vote for who can beat the Con in YOUR riding.

Just like we shouldn’t be firing FAA employees when commercial airliners are flipping upside down.

Coming soon to Doug Ford’s Ontario. Vote carefully.

Musk’s vision for the world

This is really important- contact the CBC to get them to change the topic for this Cross-Country checkup. This is shameful by our national broadcaster. It's not a debate. It's not both sides. The threat is real. It should NEVER be normalized. Contact form in this thread. Act today (Saturday 22 Feb)

Paging Brutus and Cassius. Paging Brutus and Cassius. You're needed on the March 15th floor...

Trump and Musk are reportedly blackmailing Ukraine by threatening to withhold Starlink access. Julia Davis reports that a Russian propagandist predicted this exact strategy right after Trump's election in November. kyivindependent.com/us-threatens...

Deer My Friends The Odditor General says I spent 103 milliun tax dollurs on ads that prahmoted my party but since my teem doesnt let me to talk to the meedia these ads are the only way I can tell you what a all-star goverment I have since I haven't actually uhcomplished anything in 7 years Premair

It has become part of Canadian hockey lore. During the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, a Loonie was placed under centre ice. When both the Canadian men's and women's hockey teams won gold, it became known as The Lucky Loonie. Let's learn its history :) 🧵1/10

Did Doug Ford deliver on his promises to fix Ontario health care? From hospitals to long-term care and mental health, here's what's changed www.thestar.com/news/canada/... via @torontostar

Bonnie Crombie 🇨🇦 - "Doug Ford is using your money to support the same people encouraging attacks on our independence. He can't be trusted as your premier." #cdnpoli #peipoli

Worst. Episode. EVER.

Ontario: WE CANNOT LET FORD BUY STARLINK. We can’t. Musk is the enemy. They want to invade us. Ontario is the largest province, largest economic hub of Canada. They WILL use it as a weapon against us.

America's operating system has now successfully been rolled back to Windows 3.1.

Stiles just pointed out every Ontarian is paying $400 for a private spa in Toronto.

Buzz, your girlfriend...

Note that Ozempic was discovered by a Canadian researcher and developed by a Danish company. You know, the two former allies the rogue state is now threatening.

During the debate Ford said he wasn't underfunding students and touted how many millions he threw at it. Vulnerable children are at risk thanks to Ford's ubderfunding and deficits as he prints billions for needless projects www.yorkregion.com/politics/pro...

"Such an honour to meet you, Mr President, your royal holiness. I'm Premair Doug Ford." "Pleased to meet you Dave." "Doug. But you can call me Dave, sir." "Thanks, Darryl." "Listen, I'm so sorry Canada won last night. Can I sign a multi-million dollar deal with a US firm to make it up to you?"

Here's video of Steve Bannon doing a Sieg Heil today at CPAC. It is what it is and it's what Bannon intended. Don't let yourself be gaslit.

Best Jersey ever. #Canpoli #Canada #Hockey

Nothing like hearing American's booing of the Canadian anthem suddenly be drowned by people singing it louder! Thank you to the American fans who joined in, I know it wasn't only Canadian voices. To Chantal Kreviazuk, Your emphasis on "free" brought tears to my eyes!
