So many people have grown up to be the villains of our stories.

"This will be a third minority parliament in a row. It speaks to a lack of national consensus but also to the possibilities of compromise." No. It speaks to an archaic voting system that is failing voters. With proportional representation, voters would be fairly represented.

Another one for @senschumer and his fellow brave letter writers

Every day the question, “If he was intentionally trying to kill people and destroy the economy, what would he being doing differently?” goes unanswered.

Yup…

The Canadian election result shows that the 2024 US election might have gone very differently if American voters could somehow have known in advance what it would be like to have Donald Trump as president

The funny thing is any high hopes that Rubio would be better than this was a totally media created narrative from back when he was getting magazine covers as the future of the party. Nobody paying attention ever saw anything but a sad opportunist.

Bruce Fanjoy deserves your vote in Carleton. Elbows up Canada 🇨🇦 @brucefanjoy.bsky.social

Charlie Angus "Take Nothing for Granted" "Polls don't vote". The right always shows up at the polls.The evangelicals rent buses. We need to show up in big numbers! Pollievre could win just like Trump did if people don't show up & vote strategically. Go #TeamCanada! open.substack.com/pub/charliea...

Come on #Canada - please buy Canadian apples. Food security is more important now than ever. 🍎 A note from a Canadian apple farmer. 👇

Did you know Stephen Harper is Chairman of the IDU, a global network of right-wing fascists working to reshape democracy? The IDU has 80 right-wing political party members, including Trump's Republicans, Orbán, Bolsonaro and Canada's CONS. He's importing the global authoritarian playbook... #IDU

The choice is clear, Canada. Don't f this up! 🍁

Don't trust that the Liberals have the elections locked in as the polls predict. Polls don't count; only votes do! Go vote Carney! Go vote Liberal!

The more Pierre Poilievre talks, the more he sounds like he's reading from Project 2025. #CarneyForCanada #NeverVoteConservative #CountryOverParty

So Poilievre says no more tents in public spaces, they will be arrested. I guess only big trucks with loud horns are allowed to camp in public places. Vote wisely people #CanadaStrong

www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art... This is not just a Liberal surge in the Ottawa area, but perhaps a backlash to Poilievre's support of the Ottawa Convoy. Not sure that has been forgotten by residents.

Phuckin’ A #EatTheRich

He can't do math He can't cost out his platform He can't even get carbon pricing costs right What can Pierre Poilievre do? He sure can collect pension credits for 21 years. #PierrePoilievreIsUnfit

Vote for Bruce Fanjoy 🇨🇦 - Carleton does deserve better. #cdnpoli

Poilievre still hasn’t applied for his security clearance He’s not Prime Minister material

While Pierre Poilievre is busy borrowing from Trump’s playbook and preoccupied with plastic straws, Mark Carney has a real plan for growing a green economy and keeping Canada Strong. This election, vote for real climate action, our future depends on it. Happy Earth Day! 🌍🇨🇦🌳
