PM Mark Carney has already proven he is no ally to our people after fast-tracking #BillC5 without prior “consultation and consent.” 🪶😡 #IMissTrudeau #CarneyLied #climatecrisis

I really REALLY wish we had a properly functioning opposition party in Canada. Infuriating that we only have reactive, performative children in that party where the healthy critical thinkers and adults with decorum should be. #CdnPoli #NoSides #OneGovernment

Universal Basic Income ( #UBI ) programs have been tried, tested and proven to save money and improve quality of life overall. If it was already in place in #Canada, the country would have been in a much better financial position to fight the nonsense from USA.

Many want PP out, believing that whomever is coming up behind him will be more cooperative and better for the country. I believe the opposite. The next will be alarmingly sharper and more precise in executing the IDU’s ideology.

Picking a leader who has no accomplishments after 20 years seems like a bad idea in retrospect now doesn't it

This is way bigger than the characters in power now. Worth researching. There’s good background in the book Dark Money and how it’s tied to #Canada.

If you get an email today asking you to sign a Stop the CRA petition, know that the Canadian Taxpayers Association is connected to Americans for Prosperity, the Koch think tank. 🤬🇨🇦

There is still a lot of work to be done, and several politicians’ feet we need to hold to the fire on serious issues, but it feels like a renewal of energy today. I haven’t felt optimism in awhile and the tiny bit of relief and inspiration both sides of the border is a welcome change.

It’s time to drop the “we can’t “ mindset & adopt a “we can” mindset. Risk aversion in our past govts & Canadian voters has put us where we are today: relying on other nations for what we need, being vulnerable to predatory U.S. business practices & bullying from Trump. No more! 🇨🇦💪🏻

This thread speaks to what I felt after listening to Elizabeth May. I’m happy she wants to hold them accountable on climate, but not supporting the budget at all? Shortsighted and myopic.

Canadian Granny of 9 here. I, too, am very concerned about global warming - afraid for the future of my grandkids. However, the focus right now has to be on saving our Sovereignty - without that - climate change won’t matter, when we get swallowed up by USA…..so..?✌🏻❤️🇨🇦

He is the worst Canadian MP spender for a guy who achieves nothing but division. He’s like the grumpy old guy shooting at kids and pets that cross his sidewalk. Miserable and ineffective. This is a paid position. I’d be happy to stand around and complain for the coin he makes.

I am stunned by how many Canadians misunderstand the role of Leader of the Opposition. Especially the Leader of the Opposition. It only takes a little research, but then Maple Maga and PP’s followers wouldn’t have license to villify Liberals while exalting Cons without critical thinking.
