Say what you will about the Monarchy (obviously mixed reviews, we'll let the comments section roll on that one) but that throne speech was a serious power-move for Canada on the world stage. We won't be hearing about the 51st nonsense from Orange Man anytime soon.

Don't let the size of the colours on the map fool you! 50% of the population lives in greater Van, 7% in greater Vic, the rest is 43% of the population but the surface area is primarily trees and wildlife habitat. lol

New polling by EKOS (March 13, 2025) shows the Liberal Party has surged dramatically in all regions (even Alberta, lol) according to their likely voter model, and could be set to form a majority gov if current trends continue and the election is set to take place this spring: tinyurl.com/4u5rkhnn

When Ontario Procurement Minister knocked on Ontario resident Lisa Crompton’s front door on Feb. 12, he might not have realized he was being recorded.
But he was, and Crompton shared the footage with me — footage that appears to show the MPP lying about the Greenbelt scandal.

I've got so many eggs in my fridge right now, available to ship to American friends... 30% tariff may apply but we might be able to negotiate a deal if you ensure no chickens cross the border with bird flu.

I've said it before... killing the CBC when the U.S. is using U.S. owned media to propagandize for the destruction of Canada would be smashing all the fire alarms when an arsonist has threatened to burn your house down.
Saving the CBC isn't just about protecting your favourite program or personality. It's about preserving national unity -- and preventing Canada from being subject to a hostile foreign takeover. www.nationalobserver.com/2024/11/19/o...
Saving the CBC is really about saving Canada
Pierre Poilievre reportedly has plans to slash the CBC's budget. That would be a disaster for national unity.

In Canada, it’s probably going to be Carney vs Poilievre for Prime Minister, in a time of unprecedented economic and sovereignty threats from Trump.
Carney hasn’t been a politician, and is one of the most experienced and respected economic experts in the world, known for intelligence & integrity.
