CIRCLES. #RESIGNpoilievre Nothing magical here, just an acceptance that competence trumps governance by obstruction & slogan. Hard work & sacrifice isn't over, but it'll be worthwhile. Thankyou Mr Carney & Mr Trudeau & liberal party. Thankyou Mr Singh for showing grace under pressure.

Didn't register to vote? You can still do so on election day Voters need to prove their identity and address, or another voter can vouch for them #Canada #FederalElection #CanadaVotes 🍁 #April28th www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

WIP - if galaxies were flowers? Let's be like Germany, Canada. Despite media spin ~ a strong win against coordinated disinfo attacks, & democracy did prevail. Seeing same disinfo increase daily here. MANY friends are stressed OUT. Stay strong, #RESIST #NEVERpoilievre #VOTECARNEY

We advance voted #liberal yesterday. It was a little #HappyEaster gift to ourselves. #Canada #NEVERpoilievre #pollyNEVER #NEVERmapleMAGA #Blomidon #NovaScotia. When painting, I re-imagine landscape, wish this was possible with the world. I'd LOVE a #magicwand to tone down hate we see daily.

If you’re in Canada, check out smartvoting.ca before you vote. It helps you vote strategically in your riding to stop a CPC win by avoiding vote-splitting on the left. Vote with your heart → Liberals: 202 | CPC: 117 Vote smart → Liberals: 226 | CPC: 85 PLEASE REPOST THIS WE ALL NEED TO KNOW THIS!

#NEVERpoilievre Not Withstanding Clause-tool PP will use to keep all 1000s & 1000s of murderers currently in prison for ever. (Reality=3034). Or will it be the tool he'll use to strip other rights from all Canadians? I.E. access to abortion for women. Slippery effing slope. Trumpian to his core.

#Zentangle #Watercolour #AprilArt #PenandInk So tariff day is tomorrow. How do I maintain my love of orange? He who shall not be named comes to mind too often in conjunction with orange. The world is mostly kind. It really is, we witness this daily. Kind voices sing out, sing joy.

#Donttrustpolls #VoteCarney #NEVERpoilievre #pollyNEVER #NOmapleMAGA #paintpours. CANNOT abide waste of paint pouring off. I work on wallpaper remnants, control amounts & no paint pours off edges. Once dry, pours are mounted or trimmed & used in #mixedmedia. #HappyColour #Color #Upcycle #MarchArt

March 25, 1958: Pilot Jan Zurakowski took the Avro Arrow into the air for the first time at 9:53 a.m. The flight lasted 35 minutes. Zurakowski stated "It's a beauty". The program was cancelled less than a year later by the federal government. Learn more 👇

ICE targeting based on "intel". Informants take exception to a person's dress, colour, language. Most deportees in US legally. Why target these folks? SO easy snatching up defenseless people, than doing actual PROFESSIONAL police work to infiltrate gangs & radicals. www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8hS...
