Even Canada's child poverty rate is way too high. And this figure is a significant underestimate, many other studies have suggested that 20-25% of Canadian children can't fully afford the basic necessities like food, clothing, shelter.
The U.S is the wealthiest country in the history of the world. We should not have the highest rate of child poverty of nearly every major country on earth. We should have the lowest.
It's time to end this international embarrassment & create an economy that works for all.

Canada must speak up against the arbitrary detention of travellers. Canadians and other nationals have been kidnapped by ICE.
These are not the actions of a democratic nation.
This is the creep of fascism.
I am calling on Canadians to avoid all travel to the USA.

SICKENING—Trump’s DHS just deported a surgeon from Brown—who is here legally on an H1B visa that doesn’t expire until 2027, & committed no crimes. Trained in the U.S. at Ohio State, University of Washington, and Yale as a **transplant surgeon**, she is a highly trained doctor on kidney transplants.

JD Vance says Canada should spare him our "sob story" about being good allies.
We sent so many young Canadians into Afghanistan to help the United States in THEIR war.
A war THEY lost.
We paid a huge price and will never forget the sacrifice.
J. D. can go lie on his couch.
Canada is #elbowsup

Elon Musk, J. D. Vance have tried to intervene and undermine elections in Europe.
Elections Canada is not willing to take this issue on.
Questions are being raised about banning X during the electoral period to prevent foreign interference in our democracy.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump’s dismantling of USAID will lead to millions of preventable deaths.
The decision of the richest person in the world to destroy an agency that delivers life-saving aid to the poorest people on the planet is unconscionable.

The fascists are far smarter than they were 80 years ago. They know that you can indirectly kill all of the people you despise by just generally removing all of their healthcare access and social support. This is more cruel than the gas chambers. This is genocide reimagined.

This is why you fight these cowards.

Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.
He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.
