I spoke with UN Secretary-General António Guterres today. In this time of rising conflict, Canada is ready to lead.
We will build coalitions, defend democracy, and stand up for our values on the world stage. As others step back from global leadership, Canada is stepping up.

I think even if someone loses an election we should still pause to recognize them for all the hard work, money and time they put into trying to win the election so hat’s off to PostMedia.

Pierre Poilievre managed to go thru all that — years of campaigning on the public dime; the most important election in modern Canadian history; losing a historic lead in the polls with historic speed; losing his own riding — ALL without actually proving that he could pass the normal security check.

What a wonderful message from a daughter to her father. Well done, Charlie, well done.
I saw this FB message from one of my fearsome daughters. She was a baby went I left home for politics. I missed every school play, every graduation.
Tomorrow I start at 8AM drywalling an upstairs room to support her fantastic tea shop business.
So glad to be home and be still welcome.

Don't use the polls as an excuse not to vote. In the last provincial election in Alberta, one riding was decided by only 25 votes and another by 42 votes.

This is a perfectly Canadian thread!
A lot of Americans don't know this, but the winner of the Canadian election will be required live in a small cottage located in the backyard of the palace where the viceroy to the King of England lives.
The cottage just recently got a new wifi router, which was very exciting for all Canadians.

I feel like Americans are the last to find out that yes, that is where you are.
Other countries have watched their democracies slip away quietly, without tanks in the streets. That may be where we’re headed—or where we already are.
