Petition asking PM to revoke Elon Musk's Canadian citizenship garners support nationalnewswatch.com/2025/02/22/p...

Thousands of 🇨🇦 people have signed a petition calling for revocation of Elon Musk's Canadian citizenship over his role in the Trump administration, which is pointedly threatening Canada's sovereignty. Petition link: www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

We kicked holocaust denier Ernst Zündel out of Canada. Why the hell would we let Elon Musk have any claim on Canada? He is a fascist threatening the people of Ukraine. I am proud to be helping drive this asshole from our shores. www.ctvnews.ca/canada/artic...

The Vampire is an eternal source of wisdom and insight. Invite him to cross your threshold.

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.

Mark Carney is one of the most respected voices on the economy worldwide and the most qualified candidate to steer Canada through the second Trump presidency.

Please, Americans, read Charlie's latest ~ The countdown has fast forwarded and you don't have two years to flip seats. The time is now. #Resist

May I gently remind you that in the Budapest memorandum where Ukraine gave up the nukes, 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 🇷🇺 guaranteed “to refrain from economic coercion designed to subordinate to their own interest the exercise by Ukraine of the rights inherent in its sovereignty and thus to secure advantages of any kind.” 🧵

Bottom line Trump Premiers: Moe, Ford, Smith, Houston, King Progressive Premiers: Holt, Kinew, Eby, Furey Quebec: conservative nationalism. Seven Premiers + a Prime Minister to change our constitution. BC/NB/MB knew the assignment Vote wisely Ontario Smartvoting.ca

Great game, can't wait to wake up to 75% tariffs

DOGE is most accurately pronounced 'dodgy'.

The International Women's Day against Nazism and Trumpism protest that I'm organizing now officially has its own webpage! Folks in/around Montréal: share widely so we can be a critical mass the day of! celeste.lgbt/en/2025/02/i...

Hoping that the inevitable crisis in the US escalates precipitously enough that they turn inwards and collapse on themselves leaving them too few spoons to direct that aggression toward their neighbours.

Hey, my Canadian friends - get the message out- these people and the animals need assistance! Thanks! ❤️🇨🇦

Message à la communauté... Collecte des ordures, compost et recyclage annulées cette semaine pour Montréal. #Montreal

Your good new story for the day. I just received a message from a landlord in Florida. He has lost over $30,000 in rentals since Canadians began the boycott. Canadians are doing their part. LET'S TAKE THE BOYCOTT INTERNATIONAL. We invite allied nations to boycott all things American.

A step closer to catastrophe. I see Americans responding "I'll just get vaccinated in Canada/Mexico". I need you to understand something. There is a tipping point at which Pfizer & Moderna will simply stop making them. Canada is a tiny market. Your federal government has gone fully antivax. 1/3

My kids still mask. Pointing this out seems like virtue signalling. The fact remains that my kids have maintained a practice that is both highly visible and highly unpopular. Some might quibble with their choice, but you can't quibble with their principles. And that makes me inordinately proud.

The stunning Indigenous Canada flag created by Kwakwaka'wakw artist Curtis Wilson. His design for the flag is meant to represent First Nations in Canada to the public. In reflection, with gratitude and humility 🙏.

Message from Mark Carney, former Gov. of the Banks of England & Canada. Highly educated economist. Probable next Prime Minister. === To avoid Trump's tariffs, Canada is moving all its trade to other countries at warp speed, including its oil to China. He explains why.

🚨 Jim Flaherty’s former chief of staff calls out Poilievre’s wife for trying to diminish the role of Carney during the 2008 financial crisis…and it is mic-drop worthy.

Mark Carney 🇨🇦 - There's a fever raging in America and we're going to use this opportunity to leapfrog pass them. #cdnpoli #peipoli

Canada is helping save our data even as our government is threatening to invade Canada. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Mark Carney 🇨🇦 - Canada's economy is poised to surpass the USA's despite looming trade wars. Nations worldwide are eager to increase trade with us. With the right leadership, Canada can capitalize on America's downward spiral! Let's get busy, Canada LET'S BUILD! #cdnpoli #peipoli

Mind-boggling that Canadians actually think this guy cares about them. 🤨

The use of the boycott has a long and powerful tradition of taking on tyranny. The grassroots Canadian boycott against Trump is having a serious effect. And we've only just begun.. Please read on how we can use our dollars to resist the gangster in Washington. substack.com/@charlieangu...

This website is vital! It tells you the current status in your riding & who you need to vote for in order to get rid of Ford. Please!! Ontarians who want to stop Ford & a deal with Musk, MUST check this out. The goal? Anyone but Ford! Strategic voting!!!

Sometimes it's easy to forget that we went through a global pandemic just a few years ago (COVID isn't gone, please get boosted and mask up). I don't think we're all as over that as we pretend to be, and it's really helping move along fascism and hate.

Un premier candidat sérieux au poste de tsar du fentanyl à la frontière canadienne.

To Marty Morantz and Pierre Poilievre: You may have heard of this little hiccup that started in 2020 (a pandemic that killed more Canadians than World War 2 and ground the world economy to a halt for 2 years). Would you have let people starve to avoid a deficit? Yes or no? 🤔
