So we voted today. It was quick. My wife was impressed with the whole process compared to what she's experienced her whole life in the US. A testament to what Elections Canada does. We were in & out in about 10 min in a busy polling station. Take the time & vote! It matters!

Misinformation is already circulating about missing voter cards, so PSA, you don't need one. If you're a Canadian citizen and 18+, take your photo ID (license, passport...) to a polling station in your area and they'll help you with the rest. Go vote! #cdnpoli #vote www.elections.ca/scripts/vis/...

Excellent research into the misinformation swirling about by @rachelgilmore.bsky.social I find it disheartening, however, that there is a lack of basic journalistic skills by well known papers like the G&M. I expect lack of fact checking in social media but regular media??

I cannot believe this happened. When I first joined bsky, @rachelgilmore.bsky.social was one of the first CDNs I came across that provided excellent & well-researched insight into politics. @ctvnews-rss.bsky.social should be ashamed at bowing down to those that promote disinformation. #Canada

youtu.be/HdPiBNiedQg Incredibly disappointing move by CTV. We need more fact-checking not less at this time #cdnpoli #Canada @ctvnewsottawa.bsky.social @ctvnewscalgary.bsky.social @ctvnewskitchener.bsky.social

At a press conference on Wednesday, Winnipeg police confirmed the identity of Mashkode Bizhiki’ikwe to be Ashlee Shingoose. Ashlee’s father Albert Shingoose had one request for Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew: sing a song.

We should be doing this actively. If the US isn't interested in their knowledge & innovation they would bring to the US, we can certainly use them up here. #Canada #cdnpoli

On Wednesday, I interviewed @dantheeditor.bsky.social, an author, retired journalist, and one of the 120 contributors to Get Fact, a newsletter and platform working to fight dis/misinformation. You can read that interview here. www.halifaxexaminer.ca/dismantling-...

These are actually great ideas. Many of these ideas would help the economy & the average person (not necessarily the wealthy). #Canada #cdnpoli

So, a Warcraft guildie friend of mine has decided to quit his job & start his own art shop on Etsy (www.etsy.com/shop/Artivis...). He has some great works there with a Puerto Rico twist on them. Definitely check them out!

J'avoue que mon français est horrible (mon nom acadien n'aide pas) mais je suis déçu que @mark-carney.bsky.social se retire des débats français. #canada #francophones ça vous dérange ?

So here's an example of an account I'd mute or block. It's a bot. No verification of what they repeat. & why would I go to the cesspool called X?!?! #canada #cdnpoli #novascotia #nspoli

This is actually superb. It highlights companies that are wholly Canadian owned vs US parents. #Canada
