Democracy flourishes when public healthcare and education thrive. People who trust in the protection of human rights are free to build a great economy. An honest, vigilant, and courageous media is the bedrock. Dogs, especially whippets, rule.

24% of the vehicles exported by the United States are exported to Canada. Every Canadian has the power to respond to Trump and impose 100% tariffs by not buying any American vehicles. Trump wants to ban cars made in Canada? Every Canadian should ban vehicles made in the United States #BoycottUSAcars

They can suspend your rights with a single vote. That’s not democracy, it’s abuse of power. The Notwithstanding Clause was never meant for this.

Here's Reagan's full address on tariffs. Not that it needs saying, but Trump is 100% lying: the address talks about how Reagan hated tariffs, wanted to avoid them, and used them surgically to solve a particular trade dispute.

Always interesting to see what New Democrats are saying about the future, and the recent past, of their party. My ongoing issue with the NDP is that they exist as contrarians, usually serving only to elect conservative governments. #CDNpoli #NDP #NDPLdr www.youtube.com/watch?v=3U20...

Republicans are 💯 responsible for stoking civil unrest across the country. They’ve peddled in inflammatory rhetoric for years, outlawed anti-fascism, weaponized the DOJ, ICE and the National Guard.

There’s a level of “anger” I feel today.
It’s not Poilievre— the fact he’s not someone I’d trust, is just baked in.
It’s not the CPC— the fact they’ve caved to him and GOP nastiness is not new.
It’s what they’re doing to the country every day with rage bait.
