One thing that I was thought was revealing about the divisions within Canada: When Carney acknowledged Poilievre's hard work on his campaign in his victory speed, the crowd of Liberals cheered. When Poilievre mentioned Carney in his concession speech, there was loud booing.

if there’s one thing a bunch of people I recently talked to about the U.S. in Asia agreed on, it’s “the average American has had so little to fear from their own government, compared to people from many other nations, that they’ve convinced themselves they don’t need to pay attention to politics.”

Well… I went to see if the trilliums were out and I was a day or two early. The red ones were blooming, but not the white. Lots of other spring flowers though! Oh… and it’s light past 7:30 now!! ☀️ 🌱 Get Outside!

It's a tough day to be Catholic. And the snarky comments online about our beloved and broken Church on a day when we're grieving don't help. I understand that this broken Church may seem strange to outsiders, but could you please keep your comments respectful? Thank you

Yes… I 💯 know the Catholic Church has its faults. What I think a lot of people don’t understand is that Pope Francis epitomized the Catholic faith, at least how I grew up in it. It’s a loss for the world, and as a ‘Pope Francis Catholic’, I’m incredibly sad 🙏🏻 RIP Pope Francis 🕊️

Pope Francis asked to be buried at St. Mary Major “in the side nave between the Pauline Chapel and Sforza Chapel. The tomb must be in the ground; simple, without particular decoration and with the only inscription: Franciscus.”

Pope Francis lifted the world as he led the Church with his profound moral voice. As he returns to God, may his call to humility and concern for the least among us continue to resound.

Remember, 🇨🇦Liberals. You can vote at either the advance poll where lines are long, or at your local Elections Canada office where it tends to be quicker. www.elections.ca/content2.asp...

Just finished voting and the lines were LONG. Yet… I met a lot of nice people in line (2 hours) and was happy to see such a big turn out. Part of the wait was because of the paper ballot verification process, which is good for election integrity. #CanPoli #ElectionCanada #VoteCarney

"More than a quarter of Canadians have been exposed to fake political content on social media that is “more sophisticated and more politically polarizing” as the country prepares to vote in a federal election, researchers have found, warning that platforms must increase protections..."

There is no place in Canada for this right wing nonsense. Right wing agitators posing as journalists with no objective other than to disrupt creditable reporting for partisan and monetary gain.

Pierre Poilievre admitting in the debate that he's going to suspend the Charter of Rights and Freedoms so he can defend the charter rights of the people he deems to be worthy should terrify everyone. Seeing what's happening in the US with ICE he wants the same thing in Canada

Don't forget the only active political leaders in Canada who answer questions to #RebelNews and give them time are Alberta's Daniele Smith, Saskatchewan's Scott Moe and CPC Pierre Poilievre. And tonight #RebelNews shows the country they don't care about democracy. Vote accordingly. #cdnpoli

I used votecompass.cbc.ca (youth edition) in my classes today to help students figure out where they might align politically. We did this in preparation for the school wide Student Vote. They learned a LOT. If we can engage students, maybe we can engage their parents. #Democracy #CanPoli

When I moved to Toronto in August, in my neighborhood, in meetings & social gatherings, I kept hearing about Ontario Place & the Ontario govt contract w a European company to build a spa/water park. It felt like something that mattered to people so I decided to look into it

If U.S.Catholics agree with Trump’s comments, you have no conscience and should refrain from receiving Holy Communion. If you’re a bishop, you should submit your resignation to Pope Francis. If you’re a priest, you should stop presiding at the Eucharist. If you’re a deacon, stop preaching.
