CANADA: May correctly calls out Poilievre for stealing from the Trump/Project 2025 playbook again.
Oh, and it’s ANOTHER good day to remind everyone that Poilievre STILL hasn’t done the normal security check, still hasn’t received the standard security clearance that EVERYONE in his position gets.

I called the ethics commissioner for the HoC to encourage them to look into the actions taken by the MP, Andrew Scheer in pushing a misrepresentation that has placed at least one Canadian citizen in danger. I encourage you to do the same. See my timeline for what I complained about.

Mr. Martin is right on the button here: “We will become, thanks to this vampire president, a more independent country - and in so doing, a prouder one.”
And therein lies the rub for piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre: we all know he wants us to be more, not less, like the neofascist 🇺🇸state.

If Jeff Semple, Mercedes Stephenson & Stewart Bell of Global News are so intent on investigating MP's who get involved in the immigration process, why aren't they investigating how an MP's wife got involved in the immigration process of her uncle & had an MP help her with her uncle's immigration?

Respect to Matthew Good for saying what so many won’t: the US is burning art & culture to the ground to appease fear & fascism. Canada might lose a few shows, but we’re keeping our spine. #MatthewGood #GOP #ArtMatters

Why I love Canada.
My parents came here in the 60s and both got jobs in Canada as professors.
This may seem quite ordinary now but was not then. They made a wonderful life here and were not made to feel odd because there is no ‘ordinary Canadian’.
Only extraordinary ones.
That matters.

Ottawa’s supervised beaches are a great way to cool off in the summer, but river water quality can change quickly with the weather.
Understanding the potential risks can help you make informed choices before, during and after your swim.

Signed up! All I ask is that each individual post on @gandersocial.bsky.social be called a “goose,” as in “I’ll forward you a goose I saw on Gander” and “As soon as it happened I goosed it”
And of course, “Man, that was a career ending goose.”
And of course, “Man, that was a career ending goose.”
It’s not lost on us that a new social platform isn’t exactly top of mind. Tech execs joining the U.S. military. More war.
And here we are, grateful for everyone with us in this moment. A social platform isn’t all that social without good people supporting it.
