The case for proportional representation is undeniable.

CTV reports on how our democracy distorting voting system fuels regional divisions, and how proportional representation can fix it.

@mark-carney.bsky.social, will you champion a system where every vote truly counts?

🧵 In Canada, migrants sustain our communities and most essential systems. And yet, they are being scapegoated for crises that are caused by corporate greed and government inaction. Let’s get into it.

there's been a lot of talk about how we can retaliate against the US (counter-tariffs), and how we can boost business (interprovincial and other international trade), but i've scarcely seen any talk in media about how we would protect human people from the fallout www.thebind.ca/p/how-can-we...

Schooling Canada's MAGA MAPLE.
Pierre Poilievre made his name beating down on a small town journalist while filling his face with an apple.
He comes to Northern Ontario for rage rallies but won't go in the mines or mills to meet workers.
I come from a mining town.

I've been down there, and after careful consideration, I don't think Poilievre could handle even that elevator ride down.
He's not a strong man of courage and conviction.
When Pierre Poilievre comes north he treats our people as a stage prop for his rage shows. And then he splits town.
Total MAGA MAPLE.
To be a voice for the people you must go where they work even if its 6,000 feet underground.
Buck up dude.

The UK media are writing about the Canadian travel boycott to the United States.
Trump continues to threaten and insult our nation.
The boycott is our first trench line in what will be a long war against American tyranny.
Keep the boycott strong.

Canadians across the country are rallying behind a petition to revoke Elon Musk's citizenship.
He wasn't born in Canada. He represents profoundly anti-democratic values.
In Canada citizens can present these petitions to Canada’s parliament.
I support them.

High-speed rail alternatives for travel could open up a suite of decarbonizing options not currently on the table. But politics remains a major obstacle to seeing it built.
