1/8 As an outsider watching Canadian politics, the choice is striking: Mark Carney, a crisis-tested economist who led major economies through global turmoil—or Pierre Poilievre, a career populist running Trump’s playbook north of border. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue #Carney2025

Having lived through Trump's 1st tariff war w/ Canada & Mexico and now living through the 2n one. Watching the mess he has made w/ most countries w/ the stupid #tariffs & his asinine #tradewar. I truly wonder how any leader in their right mind would trust any deal with Trump & his current admin.

When the daughter of a long-time Conservative MP is running as a Liberal; it says a lot about the current values of the CPC. And it also speaks volumes when it comes to confidence for Carney to navigate our country for the best possible outcome. #cdnpoli #elxn45 #elxn2025

We can make this change Canada Can #Canada grow more of its own food? Greenhouses, vertical farming make it possible, experts say U.S. supplies 67 per cent of Canada’s vegetable imports and 36 per cent of its fruit imports www.cbc.ca/radio/costof...

Poilievre has been an MP since 2004. Why hasn't he done anything in that time? Other than vote no on anything that would help Canadians. We had the Harper years and nothing positive from him. These are all empty promises. #cdnpoli #elxn45 #elxn2025

Gotta keep our country safe. No matter what the polls say, go out and vote. Make sure we keep Canada free #cdnpoli #elxn45 #elxn2025

Politics Girl has a wonderful message for her fellow Canadians. Yes, she’s Canadian lol. She supports Mark Carney, and that’s unsurprising since she’s a pretty smart lady.😊🇨🇦❤️

Nearly $7 trillion USD is invested annually in activities harming nature, while investments in Nature-based Solutions total only around $200 billion. It’s time to flip these numbers. Check UNEP’s State of Finance for Nature for more data: financefornature.unep.org

That’s rich of Poilievre, accusing Carney of not only hiding, but also not “wanting to answer” questions, when he is the one who segregates media in his rallies. And he is the one who limits the entire media present to only 4 pre approved questions #cdnpoli #elxn45 #elxn2025

Multiple other Conservative-aligned political consultants turned down interview requests, one of whom mistakenly forwarded to POLITICO an internal email asking whether an on-the-record discussion would be “worth the risk.” www.politico.com/news/magazin...

“.. Carney didn’t need to shout. .. He lined up the free world—Japan, the EU, Canada in lockstep—and showed Trump the cliff’s edge. .. “.. Little triggers and strategies you get when the world’s most respected economist is your PM.” @deanblundell.bsky.social 🇨🇦 open.substack.com/pub/deanblun...

If Poilievre cares so much for our veterans, why hasn’t he tried to pass any bills to help them in his 20 years as an PM? #cdnpoli #elxn45 #elxn2025

With the exemption on electronics from China, Trump just told all small business owners in the US that to him, they don't matter. I wonder how many will see it though. While big firms are spared, small business owners are still screwed by absurd tariffs on their goods. #tariffs #tradewar #tariffwar

So much for not blinking. Guess someone w/ a semblance of a brain told him & his lemmings you cannot bring back manufacturing of such devices in a few months' time. They're all idiots. #tradewar #tariffs #tariffwar

We're all worried about the cost of living & inflation. That's all tied to our economy. Why vote for someone whose only job has been to be an "attack dog" for the CPC? We have Carney, who has actual experience dealing with the economy on a global level? #cdnpoli #elxn45 #elxn2025

I'm so curious to know why all the new CPC's ads now have someone else saying all of Poilievre's slogans. #cdnpoli #elxn45 #elxn2025

I don't trust him. There have been Conservative MPs who have already tried to pass private bills to "revisit" abortion & marriage equality. #cdnpoli #elxn45 #elxn2025

Breaking news: President Donald Trump’s administration is seeking to end nearly all of the climate research conducted by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Agency, one of the country’s premier climate science agencies, according to an internal budget document seen by Science. scim.ag/4ctpT4Z

Since he's basically promising to do everything Trump is, next would be the list of banned words. It seems anything he doesn't like is "woke ideology". Another reason to avoid Poilievre & and a CPC government. #cdnpoli #elxn45 #elxn2025
