Alex Wilds doesn’t think there are enough opportunities for youth actors in Kamloops, so she’s taking matters into her own hands.

Pierre Poilievre has been in politics for 20 years, he's written 0 legislation; has one of the highest pensions in government. He's voted against the environment & climate nearly 400 times, derailed legislation to benefit workers, and voted against affordable housing initiatives.

The conman from Mar-a-Lago promised to lower the price of eggs. Now he is going door to door in Europe begging for eggs.
In Canada egg prices remain stable. Here's my piece on Trump's disastrous handling of the crisis as avian flu threatens an even bigger disaster.

When there was a shitty job in the war it was given to the Canadians. We never flinched.
As the US threatens us and allies like Britain duck, we know where we stand. Defending democracy might be a thankless job but give it to Canadians.
We will get it done.

You all need this right now. Canadians, because it will make you proud. Americans, because some of you will appreciate it. Other americans, because you need to know how incredible and strong and also pissed off we Canadians are.
You've been asking yourself "where is the Canadian guy"? But you knew he would show up just when we needed him.
