Damning indictment of Pierre Poilievre, Andrew Scheer and the Conservative party in the Chris d'Entremont interview on CBC's Rosemary Barton show this morning. No surprise, but damning nonetheless.

It’s awesome to see this — but seriously, it’s so damn frustrating that we have to fight this fight in every city when the science couldn’t be clearer. Get the cars out, make more money for local shops, and build cities that are exciting, healthy, and happy for everyone.
It’s really important that #Vancouver’s Downtown Business Association, who were originally against bike-lanes, are now among their most vigourous supporters, because of ACTUAL EVIDENCE that they’re better for downtown business than any street parking they replaced.

Safe bike-lanes mean business.

I’d like to save the Ford Government of Ontario $9 million dollars of the public’s money.

No, a 60km tunnel under highway 401 isn’t feasible.

In fact, it’s colossally stupid.

It’s possible that it’s all a distraction from the failure to properly invest in public transit.

You’re welcome.

Trump on Orban: "He's a great leader and he's respected all over. Not necessarily liked by some of the leaders, but those leaders are proven to be wrong. If you look at Europe, they've made tremendous mistakes on immigration. He has not made a mistake on immigration. Hungary is being led properly."

Jesus.
That explains the tone of Jeneroux's letter.
🤦‍♂️ They’re sending JENNI BYRNE of all people to stop dissent.
You know what that looks like.
Bullying and threats. That’s how Jenni operates.

Bob Fife says "a lot of CPC MP's are upset at how Jeneroux was treated" by Poilievre and his team. Fife say "there will be further fallout" over how PP handled Jeneroux and his threat to cross the floor. Fife confirms he was strong armed and threatened by PP's team. #cdnpol

🚨BREAKING: Moments before the vote on a Conservative budget amendment a second Conservative MP - highly lauded as a progressive - has resigned. Another glaring demonstration that Pierre Poilievre’s alt-right agenda has completely taken over the Conservative Party.

It’s actually mind-blowing how Trump is overtly threatening New York City voters, that if they don’t elect his corrupt crony over the candidate with integrity that they WANT to be mayor, he’s going to blatantly break the law and punish them using powers he’s doesn’t actually have.

Sound “normal?”

Important reminder 👇
Newsflash to surface dwellers in #CDNpoli - Doug Ford isn't a good guy. He's a multi-millionaire bully-grifter, privileged oligarchic back-rooming asshole.

Behind the flash he's funneling public $ to friends and donors and slipping horrible legislation into law. Look beyond. Doug is deplorable!
