Remind your Ontario Conservative MPP on a daily basis that you know that they are chronically criminally corrupt on a daily basis. Also remind any bootlicking mayors of Doug Ford & his chronically criminally corrupt government that you are aware of what they are up to daily, repeat as necessary.

Agreed. Dear PM @mark-carney.bsky.social and @liberalca.bsky.social pls consider a regular summit for housing to give people updates on housing construction around the country. having a continued and unrelenting focus on housing and food inflation will be key here. #cdnpoli
The PM is talking about nation-building. We need to be talking about being a nation where people aren't dependent on food banks and are able to live in affordable homes.
A nation where people are not left behind.
This is my latest.

“Canada’s anti-vax movement is made up almost entirely of Conservative Party voters. The CPC has a responsibility to counteract misinformation and keep their supporters informed, as their decisions will affect the health and safety of their communities.”
The Conservatives need to address the anti-vax sentiment in their party
Conservatives are the most likely to exhibit anti-vax sentiment -- by far.

Blame Danielle Smith and the UCP all day, but there are still many Albertans who support them.
Place blame where it belongs. The electorate did this to themselves.

🇨🇦 ALBERTA'S EMBARRASSING ROLE IN LOSING MEASLES ELIMINATION STATUS 🇨🇦

Dr. James Talbot, Alberta's former CMO of health, says the #UCP should be "embarrassed" by its role in Canada losing its #measles elimination status.

"My gut reaction is sadness," he told CBC News.

I think all air traffic controllers in the US who are apparently working for free currently should just say fuck that and stay home. When no planes can fly maybe people will stop pretending things are still normal down there. If Trump can’t go to Fla for golf the gov will reopen.

This is interesting. Did the MP who resigned get threatened by his own party?

#CanadaSky #cdnpoli
A young Tory MP's name gets mentioned as someone ready to cross the floor. He goes to ground and then suddenly announces he is stepping down.
Young MPs just don't quit politics unless someone dumped a political horse head in the bed.

Canadians should notice that the Canadian conservatives are using Donald Trump as cover to radicalize their own talking points. Demanding political opponents be jailed, inserting hateful rhetoric about minorities, and telling lies upon lies. It's not something they're going to stop, either. #CDNpoli

Steven Pinker who is the supposed “authority” cited on banning DEI and testified at this HOC committee, was a witness in Jeffrey Epstein’s defense.

And no one helps defend a sex trafficker *by mistake*

Of course the CPC love him.
