Funny video about Stephen Harper, the puppet master of Pierre Poilievre. #cdnpoli #markcarney #quebec #ontario #federalelection Video credit: @schcallum on Tiktok.

I don’t watch a lot of Poilievre’s videos but when I do it always strikes me how artificial he is. He’s a caricature, a shell, like a Ken doll in his mojo-dojo-casa-house. I feel sad for the affirmation he’s seeking through his career. He only cares about “bringing it home” for one person. Him.

Every one of these idiots will vote. Their heads are filled with disinformation and they are spinning with rage. They are highly motivated. The race is close. DO NOT SIT HOME AND ALLOW THEM TO PICK THE NEXT PRIME MINISTER Advance polling stations are open now from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m until Monday night

Pierre Poilievre is living in the past. #Debate2025

Alternative headline - 3 in 4 Albertans would vote to stay in Canada in a referendum on Alberta separation Or 75% of Albertans want to remain Canadian Come on this isn't hard I'm so tired of this clickbait BS #cdnpoli #ableg www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Hey, Sherwood Park-Fort Saskatchewan, Vote FOR Canada! Vote for TanyaHolm.liberal.ca

Narduar: Justin Trudeau did the hip flip game. Carney: That doesn’t surprise me. Narduar: Stephen Harper didn’t do the hip flip game. His security carried me away. Carney: That doesn’t surprise me either.

Just imagine, something real and concrete instead of endless restructuring, collapsing silos, re-creating silos, terminating executives & making severance payments, re-hiring executives ... #ableg #abpoli

What Wab Kinew sorcery is this? **stares blankly in Albertan**😶

Calgary has huge drug issues just like Edmonton, Grande Prairie and Lethbridge. Last week I found two dead people, one on 17th and one in a park downtown. This is absolutely not OK. The common denominator is the UCP pulling supports from Albertans and closing the safe supports.

“We are going to aggressively develop projects that are in the national interest in order to protect Canada’s energy security, diversify our trade, and enhance our long-term competitiveness – all while reducing emissions." – Mark Carney

The Battle of Vimy Ridge was a defining moment in history — when the four divisions of the Canadian Corps joined together in courage and unity on the battlefield.   More than 3,598 Canadians paid the ultimate sacrifice. Lest we forget.

“Nice: do what we say, or we blow up the country. As attempts at blackmail go, it is cruder even than the note issued by his political ally, Danielle Smith, with its list of “nine demands” the next prime minister must meet – within six months! – or face “an unprecedented national unity crisis.””

🇨🇦Liberals are the winning team for Canada! 🇨🇦 Sherwood Park-Fort Saskatchewan, do you want another term being represented by a belligerent conservative MP, or do you want a seat at the adult-table with Tanya Holm? @tanyaholm123.bsky.social Vote wisely! ⬇️ TanyaHolm.liberal.ca

As a Canadian first and an Albertan as a far, far second, I'm angry at both Manning and Smith. Albertans need to grow up. Move to the U.S. if you believe that is a better country. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

Right from Trump’s playbook.

This is an excellent thread. I feel the same about nearly every episode of this pod whenever Kathleen Petty hosts.

👋Some news I’m running for Mark Carney's Liberals in Calgary-Confederation. I live here, work here, raise my kids here. I want to offer representation that understands the economy and the public interest and be an Alberta voice standing up for Canada at a challenging time. 🧵(1/X)

“Smith couldn’t get 1/3 of Albertans to support the idea of an APP. If she couldn’t convince enough Albertans to part with their federal pension plan, the odds of her getting them to trade in their passport at a moment when national pride is on a generational upswing are even lower.”

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but one “cordial” phone call doesn’t make everything better. Even if further tariffs don’t materialize, the threat to Canada from an increasingly authoritarian US will remain until Trump & MAGA finally leave office. The changes we’ve made need to be permanent.

I’ve picked a side in Canada’s election open.substack.com/pub/blackclo...

Our response to the U.S. tariffs is to fight, protect, and to build. That means building the infrastructure to help diversify our trade partners, create good jobs, and grow our economy.

Let’s go. #CanadaStrong

I've noticed that ads for the Libs tells us what they plan to do and how they will help Canadians & ads for the CPC just attack Carney This tells me everything I need to know #cdnpoli #CanadaElection2025

Look at the devastation #DanielleSmith and her goon squad are causing in Alberta and know that this same type of right wing extremist chaos and destruction is what will befall 🇨🇦, if #PierrePoilievre ever got his hands on power. #StopPoilievre #cdnpoli

Can we get this trending: Danielle Smith, essentially: Tariffs are OK, Just Not Right Now.

🚨 Conservatives are so aligned with Donald Trump's people that they feel comfortable asking him to "put things on pause".

It’s time to build, Canada.

Canada : c’est le temps de bâtir.

Ottawa is where @mark-carney.bsky.social raised his family, devoted his career to public service, and always gave back to his community. We're thrilled to announce that our Leader, Mark Carney, will be our candidate for Nepean in the next election. Together we will build an even stronger Canada.

Mark Carney and the Premiers have started their meeting here at the War Museum, in a room full of tanks and military equipment. Carney said he wants Canada to be an “energy super power” and that Canada has “to do things we didn’t imagine possible” #cdnpoli

Fellow Canadians : Let us please do everything in our power not to elect this absolute dipshit. The man is a career politician that has never done a day of manual labour in his fucking life and yet he hides behind idiotic slogans like this. Boo this man at every turn. May he never know peace.

Kudos Mark Carney 🇨🇦 👍👍👍 Canada issues new 5 year Canadian bonds $3.5 billion, but sold the bonds in US dollars. The bonds were 4 times oversubscribed, so there appears to be no lack of confidence in the Canadian economy. That’s just the beginning.

For some reason, this nonsense reminded me of an old Doug Stanhope clip: www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQEc...

The UCP is just a giant siphon, designed to funnel money from provincial services into dodgy corporate hands for nothing in return. #AbLeg #AbPoli
