Looking at the shitstorm in the United States causes some Canadians to be smug. Look at the turkeys we have for provincial premiers: Danielle Smith in Alberta, Scott Moe in Saskatchewan, Doug Ford in Ontario, François Legault in Quebec, etc. And don’t get me started on Pierre Poilievre.

Please watch "The Assembly" on @cbcgem.bsky.social.
It's about a group of autistic and neurodivergent interviewers that talk to celebrities about their lives. FUNNY and interesting.
Love the Russell Peters interview.

The Terrbonne riding in the Federal election had a final Judicial recount and the Liberals won.
The Liberals won by ONE VOTE.
For those people that say "my vote doesn't count", this is why it does.
Do your homework and VOTE!

Florida is preparing to end ALL vaccine mandates including those for children entering and remaining in school.
They are the first state to do this but probably not the last.
Canada needs to understand how to proceed and may need (require) vaccine status updates to enter Canada.

In my personal and work life, I've been lucky enough to visit and/or work in every province and one territory.
Great people and beautiful places to see everywhere.
Very fortunate and proud to call myself a Canadian.

*All* federal politicians should have to pass security clearance.
In fact, I think people should have to undergo and pass security clearance just to run in an election.
Our country's security is of utmost importance, and we need to stop pussy-footing around this issue.

Did you know that Canada imports $392 MILLION just in soups and broths alone from the U.S.
Imagine if we bought our soups and broths from Canadian companies. How many jobs would that create.
We need to wake up and increase internal trade in Canada.
Don't subsidise poor quality but DO try Canada.

I had a productive call with Ursula von der Leyen this morning. We’re ready to build on our free trade relationship, bolster economic security, and work side-by-side on shared defence and security challenges.
When Canada and the European Union build together, our futures are stronger.

Pierre Poilievre voted against anti-scab legislation EIGHT times and supported C-525 which made union certification more difficult.
He is anti-union but needs their votes so suddenly he's "for workers".
