Trump wants our land, water, and resources. Mark Carney says no. His plan defends our environment with Indigenous leadership, smart tech, and strong protections. From freshwater to Arctic guardianship, Canada stands strong. Let’s protect what’s ours—for today and tomorrow. #StrongCanada

Andrew Lawton at his worst, called the Commemoration of Polytechnique Massacre a " Fake Holiday" promoted by "Feminazis."
Doug Ford had the decency to reject him as a Candidate.
But he is running for PierrePoilievre in London. #cdnpoli

#Ptbo If we can show Mark Jokinen some love right now, he would appreciate it.

I don’t know if you saw the Examiner article, but he is receiving death threats and threats to his property by a trio of incels. They’re pissed because he denied one of them entry maskless during the pandemic.

Give her a follow if you believe that #Peterborough deserves better than Michelle Ferreri.

The #CBC is more than just a news network—it’s a pillar of Canadian identity. It’s the only major broadcaster that is owned by Canadians, for Canadians.

CBC. It’s a Canada thing.

In this time of mis/disinformation and foreign owned media, CBC truly matters.

Yes, CBC has problems, but our goal should be to improve and strengthen CBC.

Not dismantle it and abandon Canadians to foreign influence and disinformation

Another example of how #CBC investigation save Canadians from criminal gangs. Saving people tens of millions of dollars. Poilievre wants to cut CBC. That only helps criminals.

For 250 years, the United States has supported democracy.

Now, in the middle of a horrific war that Putin started, Trump is turning his back on Ukraine and democracy, all to the benefit of a brutal dictator in Moscow.

Since Congress’s allotted funds have already been improperly unallocated, U.S. citizens are questioning whether they are legally required to continue paying federal taxes.

The importance of a strong national broadcaster has never been more clear.

Given the threats from the USA, the Conservative Party plan to kill the CBC will mean surrendering to the Americans who will control our media.

Protecting Canadian sovereignty means protecting the CBC.

Pierre Poilievre opposed aid to Ukraine. Just like Trump, Canada’s Conservative Party will sell out Ukraine. #StandWithUkraine
The world has witnessed the most disgraceful political tantrum of all time. Trump is not the leader of the "free world." He is convicted felon who doesn't deserve to be in the same room as President Zelenskyy.
There is no going along to get along with this thug.
Canada needs to stand with Ukraine.
