What frightens me is the far right rhetoric of people like Jimani. The ones who go around trying to create anger in young people.

So I assume this means he will not be taking a pension once he leaves office? Just go out and pull himself up by his bootstraps in the private sector?

Well isn’t he a bucket of empathy.
I can agree that it should frighten us that families can’t afford to feed their families but nothing else.

What he is saying is a that assistance to the public from any level of government shouldn’t happen but assistance such as corporate welfare is a good thing!

Kids in school being hungry is nothing new We use to just let them be hungry The only thing new is government deciding that no child should be hungry and starting a school meal program. It's called having empathy for your fellow people

Right, but the Cons yell "Oh the deficit is too high!" Canadians believe them but they NEVER pay down the deficit! That's their problem. They lie.They attack our Charter Rights, and they don't believe in helping Canadians. They do believe in helping themselves and their Corp buddies though. #History

It is actually, or should be the government’s place to feed starving children. Not to give handouts to big corporations on the promise of jobs created. Businesses theoretically used to stand on their “own two feet” as well. I wish the cons would stop wishing us back to a theoretical 1950s utopia.

is he shaming people for not being able to afford lunches for their children? does he not know that many parents will go hungry FOR their kids? he does know that ceo's would rather not pay their workers a living wage so they can make sky-high profits.

Conservatives have the selfish, uncaring attitude "I got mine, and I don't care if you get yours."

They don't care about their fellow citizens, the common good, or how govt providing nutritious food to kids benefits 🇨🇦 by their ability to learn and grow up strong & healthy to be productive citizens.

So his solution is take away their food, let them starve... How about making sure they can earn enough to feed their kids with actual livable wages, as well as enough affordable homes so they don't have to spend their food money on rent.
Classic right-wing logic, punish instead of trying to fix.

That’s the real Canada: forged in hardship, held together by cooperation, believing always in what could be better — not just for themselves, but for the next generation.

This is my Canada, this is our Canada

The victory was more than military; it became a symbol — a kind of coming-of-age story for a nation.

Through all this — through railway ties, rebellion, and war — Canada was being shaped not just by grand ideas, but by people’s everyday grit.

Fast forward to 1917, and at Vimy Ridge during the First World War — four divisions of the Canadian Corps, soldiers drawn from all corners of the country, fought side by side.

That was the first time Canada really came together as one force on a global stage.

Yet even in conflict, something powerful emerged: a test of the young nation’s soul. The leaders of Canada were forced to grapple with justice, identity, and what it truly meant to build a country.

The decisions made then echoed far beyond the battlefield.

The North‑West Rebellion erupted as Métis and Indigenous people, under leaders like Louis Riel and Gabriel Dumont, stood up for their land and their rights. It was a fierce confrontation, and the cost was high.
