I voted. Was in and out in less than 10 minutes. Canada's excellent democratic process is not something that we should take for granted.

Consider voting @mfoxtonlf.bsky.social in Lanark-Frontenac. We think there are some local factors that make them a good choice. See CooperateForCanada.ca for more recommendations. #cdnpoli #elxn45 #elxn2025 #neverpoilievre

"Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has a playbook. Step one: Induce fear by suggesting that crime is at historic highs. Step two: Blame the Liberals. Step three: Promise solutions that ignore what the law already does."

It's time to VOTE! Advanced Polls open 9am to 9pm. It's time to bring progressive change to Lanark–Frontenac! Learn how at MichelleFoxton.ca/vote

From Andrew Coyne's G&M article about Poilievre's proposed use of the Notwithstanding clause: “Poilievre isn’t proposing to use the notwithstanding clause to pass his crime bill — the point of the crime bill is so that he can use the notwithstanding clause.” #cdnpoli

Important read. Journalists are penned off and not allowed to mingle with the audience at PP rallies. But this young writer is not a journalist and penetrated the toxicity insude one rally.

Popularity polls do not form government. Your vote does! Advance polls are open all weekend. Make a plan to cast your vote 🇨🇦 #cdnpoli #canadavotes

JUST VOTE

The Beaverton demands same debate invitation as The Rebel, even though we’re not as big a joke

In case you missed it ... In 2023, Mark Carney gave a speech about the damage Brexit has done to Britain. He knew Brexit was just the first salvo in a wider coordinated attack upon Western democracy. The aim is always to undermine the system by convincing enough people that their nation is "broken".

Creating a World Where Everyone Belongs - "It's about making sure there's a place for every person, no matter who they are. That they have that right to walk down the street in peace. That they have the ability to love who they want to love." #TeamFoxton #MichelleFoxton #Carney2025

Dr Peter Marks, "Vaccines have been studied very extensively for being potentially associated with autism" "That theory has been debunked" "One study in Denmark, over 600,000 children. It shows that if anything, children had a lower rate of autism than unvaccinated children"

Poilievre just called CTV News’ Judy Trinh a “protester” because she dared try to ask him a question outside of the incredibly rigid four-questions-no-follow-up process his party has. Very cool stuff

In 1939 Canadians stepped up to fight fascism, and to build the ships and grow the food needed. In 2025 a lot of Canadians may vote for people who like Trump's version of fascism, and a lot of Canadians may not bother to vote. Will you sit on the sidelines at this crucial time? #elbowsup

I want to help more and support more and do more while also knowing much much less about all of the ways things are definitely more terrible than they were yesterday and much much worse than they were all of the days before that. Time for a booster shot.

I’d appreciate if @gregmcleanyyc.bsky.social would inform us what Mr Poillievre thinks is “woke” in the context of federal public service AND university research. #CalgaryCentre #cdnpoli 🇨🇦 🧪

Interesting perspective from an American doctor who has moved to Canada about the differences practicing medicine in the two countries. Wonder if more American medical doctors will make the same move? canadahealthwatch.ca/2025/03/25/i...

"Poilievre is all about "scoring points" in any way he can. He's still auditioning for opposition leader here." #cdnpoli

I think @latenightseth.bsky.social should post their return date to save me rewatching Corrections, reading all the comments, then searching the NBC FAQ to verify it is a hiatus and not that he was "accidentally" detained. I will try to be patient until March 31.
