Poilievre rushed to safety after actual journalist question makes it past security

When he was Prime Minister, Harper was the worst national leader in the democratic world. He was THE global dinosaur & obstructionist on the #ClimateCrisis, attacked science & evidence by muzzling scientists & gutting the census, & more. And that was all BEFORE MAGA. Poilievre will be much worse.

Time to buy a #transit farecard! (Or make sure you charge up a pass on your smartphone.) Because one thing is certain: Trump's tariffs are going to drive up the cost of car ownership for everyone. The problem is... 🧵

Reminder: Pierre Poilievre STILL refuses to apply for the normal, usual security clearance, the Canadian media is STILL under-reporting that, and I’m STILL choosing to assume under these dangerous and scary circumstances that it’s because he knows that he wouldn’t pass the security check.

Some stats from 100 days in on congestion pricing: - Complaints about car-honking are down 70% - The Holland Tunnel has 65% fewer delays at rush hour; time to get thru it is down 48% - 6 million fewer cars - Half as many traffic-related injuries - 1.5 million more visitors to BIDs year over year

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” It costs less to house people.

CBC/Radio-Canada is a pillar of our Canadian identity. We’re going to strengthen our public broadcaster with more long-term funding, and a modernized mandate — to deliver more local news and keep Canadians better informed during emergencies.

Is it just me, or are some folks trying real hard to create a scandal about Mark Carney saying no to a 2nd French language debate? There should be one English debate and one French debate, which is what Carney has agreed to. Why would there be an additional French debate? Enough debating already.

Amazing crowd supporting @brucefanjoy.bsky.social today! So many in Carleton want a much better representative & Bruce is the person to beat Poilievre! And they know that @mark-carney.bsky.social will stand up to Trump, while Poilievre will sell us out. Let’s win this! Canada Strong! 💪❤️🇨🇦

I still can’t quite get my mind around the fact the guy who refuses to get his security clearance is basing his entire campaign around describing his main rival as “sneaky.” I just hope irony didn’t suffer too much before the Conservatives made it die like that.

It took Mark Carney 2 weeks to get his security clearance. After 3 years, Pierre Poilievre does not have security clearance, and he refuses to get it. What is he hiding? #neverpoilievre

Spotted in the wild: The TGV M, aka the Avelia Horizon, at the Gare de l'Est in #Paris. This is the newest generation bullet train. Capable of 350 km/h, but uses 20 percent less electricity. Bi-level, so it can carry 740 passengers... 🚅🇫🇷🧵

Wow. “Conservatives won't allow reporters to travel with Poilievre during the upcoming election.” There’s no recent precedent for a major party barring reporters from accompanying a campaign. Add this to refusing to apply for security clearance. Are we supposed to believe he’s not hiding things?
