In 2004, I interviewed for a teaching position. The principal asked me how many kids I had. I answered. He asked if I was planning to have more —said he couldn’t afford to have another teacher out on maternity leave.

This is why women need protections, diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Pierre Poilievre and the Conservatives are doing their best Republican impersonation by holding a two month long filibuster, completely preventing the government from getting anything done. It's a sad abuse of our political processes. #canada #cdnpoli #canadian #CanadaSky #frankdomenic🍁

I don’t believe in the narrative, generated by conservative news media, that implies Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is past his expiry date. I am not tired of him. I stand with Trudeau.

Blocking Nazis, trolls, and fascists doesn’t make it an “echo chamber.” People need to stop gaslighting us into thinking we have to listen to Nazis and debate trolls in order to be informed.

Brian Lilley is a toxic propagandist posing as a journalist. He spreads #CdnDisinfo, runs interference for #DougFord & other Cons & has been part of some of the most poisonous media 🇨🇦 has ever seen. I don’t understand following him, I really don’t. So I’m joining the block party. #cdnmedia #cdnpoli
🚨BLOCK PARTY🚨

Block this so-called journalist into oblivion. We don’t need any of his Kremlin-backed talking points polluting this app. Send him packing back to Xitter!

This cannot be stated enough. Many provinces have been taking federal health care transfers and not spending all of it on health care (and spending much of it on provincial tax cuts), then blaming the federal government for underfunding.

Many people think that as you get older, you care less about politics. But it’s not true.

You start thinking a lot more about the kind of world you want to leave behind. You want it to be better than the one you were born into.

We all have a personal legacy in mind. Mine is to outlive Trumpism.

Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre has publicly criticized lobbyists, calling them "utterly useless." Federal records show he or his staff communicated with oil and gas lobbyists 46 times over the course of a year. @meyer.bsky.social analyzed the numbers.
