Here’s the thing — when a politician shows they can be bought & will sell out the public interest for their self-interest… and that they’ll easily lie when lives will be endangered & cities will be hurt…you know you can’t ever trust them. Every scandal has shown you can’t trust Doug Ford, Ontario.

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

I will follow Brittlestar to the barricades...

The vast majority of Canadians don’t trust the opinions of Jordan Peterson, Elon Musk and Joe Rogan — all of whom bait incels with misinformation. Pierre Poilievre has racked up endorsements from a who’s who of fascists, fraudsters & alt-right influencers | @mtltoula.bsky.social

Today would be ANOTHER good day for Pierre Poilievre to prove to Canadians that he’s actually capable of passing the standard and normal security check, & get the security clearance that he’s refused to get. Until he does, I’m assuming it’s because he knows that, for some reason, he can’t pass it.

Pendant que Trump et son régime d'oligarques veulent se séparer l'Ukraine à l'avantage de la Russie, ici au Canada, l'Ontario de Doug Ford encourage le tout en donnant un contrat à une entreprise de Musk. Ceci s'appelle de la collaboration. Nous devons dénoncer. #SlavaUkraini #Muskisanazi

For the first weeks, Americans seemed frozen, expecting institutions to do something. Americans were used to “checks and balances” and “guardrails” working. That didn’t happen. People realized that they had to take matters into their own hands… open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

"Why are they doing this? Because they are sick and cruel people. That’s why. For them, money isn’t so much even a measure of wealth as it is a tool to inflict suffering, which gets them off. In […] The torture, pain, and hate are not a bug—it’s their desire and final solution."

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

Doug Ford is playing Ontario. His hat may say, ‘Canada is not for sale’, but he is selling the province of Ontario to his rich friends in Canada and the U.S. Doug gave a $100 million contract to Musk’s Starlink to provide internet in Ontario. Ontario is not fooled. Vote out Doug Ford!

So Pierre Poilievre is trying to brand Mark Carney, well regarded as one of the smartest and most ethical economic experts in the world, as “sneaky” in new ads. Seriously. Even if he wasn’t obviously wanting so badly to be Trump with the immature name-calling and such… …it’s just so amateurish.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

This week: Enrique Tarrio is arrested at the Capitol, Judge Chutkan considers the case against Musk, Trump 2028 stickers are popular at CPAC and the Eric Adams saga continues. I recap for @meidastouch.com

NOT NOW

Today would be a good day for Pierre Poilievre to prove to Canadians that he’s actually capable of passing the same, standard, normal security check and getting the security clearance he’s refused to get. Until he does, I’m assuming it’s because he knows that, for some reason, he can’t pass it.

Did you know products “Made in Canada” need to be only 51% Canadian, while items marked “Product of Canada” must be 98%? In the wake of economic tensions with US president Donald Trump, Canadian consumers are rethinking what it really means to buy local. thewalrus.ca/buy-canadian/

I’m finding that I’m counting on CBC here in Canada more than possibly ever before. The Panel discussion just now on how truly scary the Trump situation is for Canada and the world, was the most blunt and honest I’ve seen. So of course, Pierre Poilievre is attacking the CBC and established media.

My aides just delivered a gift from the Mayor of Ontario. Ontario - I think that's the capital of Ottawa. Anyway, this mayor, Dave Ford, he sent me this cheesecake. Incredible cheesecake. The perfect cheesecake really. Seems like a nice guy. Never met him. But I've heard good things. Liked his cake.

I do appreciate how creative humans are and how they can make songs about the fall of democracy that really slap

BOSTON (AP) — The anthem singer who performed the Canadian anthem prior to the 4 Nations Face-Off championship game on Thursday night changed a lyric in “O Canada” as a response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s repeated remarks about making the country the 51st state.

Facebook, which doesn't allow Canadian news organizations to post articles on Meta, is currently running this advertisement, a deep fake video made to look like a pro-Musk CBC exposé. That's pretty fucked up!

So they told us what they were going to do to ALL of us. Here is a tracker on their progress in destroying our country: www.project2025.observer

Doug Ford Claims There Are ‘More Cranes’ Building Homes Than Ever Before. Actually, The Number of New Home Builds Has Decreased Under Ford. There were 74,326 housing starts in Ontario in 2024 –that’s 25,000 fewer than the peak in 2021. pressprogress.ca/doug-ford-cl...

Ontario internet providers want the province to give them the contract to connect rural areas to the web instead of using #ElonMusk’s Starlink — a decision that has become controversial in light of the U.S. tariff threat. Read more in our lobbying newsletter. buff.ly/419TIlT #tariffs #onpoli

People should contact [email protected] and let them know the disgust all Canadians feel about traitors who take money to attack our sovereignty. dailyhive.com/canada/billb...

For @thelocal.to I wrote about Doug Ford's record on colleges and universities. Ontario has the lowest funding in the country. Without immediate investment, we are compromising a generation of students, including skilled workers needed to build key housing, transit, infrastructure projects. #onpoli

That Mark Carney’s net favourability among young men is 41 points higher than Pierre Poilievre’s should tell you something. Canadians are waking up. We don’t need rage, we need sound economic policy. 🇨🇦👏 cultmtl.com/2025/02/mark...

Heard on the Hill: Protecting Canada sends Pierre Poilievre an anti-Valentine's message; Maxime Bernier to run again in Beauce, Que.; and the Institute on Governance's founder has died. https://buff.ly/3ELeEID

!!!!!! MY PODCAST IS #6 IN CANADA???? WHAT THE FUCK I’m gonna cry you guys are amazing seriously 😭😭😭 dreams coming true in real time 😭😭😭😭😭💞💞

Received this message via Signal from a former FAA worker who lost their job. Person works for Enroute Navigation Charts for Pilots and Air Traffic Control.

How ANYBODY could purposely vote for Ford is beyond me. As an Ontarian, I am disgusted that people would vote for such a corrupt POS.

Doug Ford Claims He’s Made the Biggest Healthcare Investments in the ‘History of the Country’. Nurses Say That’s ‘Misleading’ Ford made misleading claims about healthcare in leader’s debate, nursing association says. pressprogress.ca/doug-ford-cl...

"If we are silent in allowing Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin to carve up Ukraine it is a repeat of Munich 1938. We cannot allow this to happen.” Nothing to see here folks, just Charlie Angus once again saying what needs to be said & calling out shit that needs to be called out.

Remember back in 2017 when some of us were hoping Mike Pence would force Trump out of office and assume the Presidency, but so many were, "No! Pence would be worse!" I hope it's clear now that though Pence is an off-putting fundamentalist weirdo, he would be far far preferable to Orange Shitler.

Ontario voters: if you want a trained seal to represent your interests then vote for the candidates that don’t show up for local debates #onpoli

Ford’s refusal to prioritize public education is irresponsible. This year alone, public schools are receiving $1,500 less per student compared to 2018, when the Ford government was first elected. This is equivalent to $3.2 billion in cuts for the 2024-2025 school year.

Speaking truth to power. This is how you do it. Thank you @charlieangus104.bsky.social

Beyond the fact that Police Associations and Police Unions should remain apolitical, one has to consider the optics of actively endorsing someone who is under criminal investigation.

Love this. Thank you Detroit. Canada loves you too.

Trump refused to release his tax returns like normal, because he knew what was in them and what they revealed about him and his business dealings. Poilievre is still refusing to get the normal security clearance, I assume, for the same reason.

In a world with too many ‘Trumps & Poilievres’, be a ‘Charlie Angus’.

Trump and Putin meeting to “negotiate peace” on anything should be seen for what it is — two criminals discussing how to split the loot.

They're more concerned about not offending the "MAGA right" than defending their own country. Conservatives have suddenly cornered the market on self-loathing Canadians. Enjoy the fruits of your labours.
