Mark Carney is not a US politician. There’s no reason he should be putting out a statement on Charlie Kirk’s death.

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

It would be so great if Democratic Party elected officials would start acting as if they’re living under a government that will lawlessly kill or arrest them for the crime of political opposition.

it’s hilarious how quickly some in the political media have jumped on the framing of whether the ndp wants to be the “conscience of parliament” (embracing the left, is assumed to mean you can never win popular support) or a real contender for government to try to drive it more to the centre

But in the ONE Edmonton riding where the NDP candidate came in second to the Cons, we could have ended up with an excellent second-term MP who has consistently shown his commitment to leading with kindness and bravery if Liberals had chosen to take their own medicine and "vote strategically."

Just to be really crystal clear, of the ridings in Edmonton where Liberal candidates came in second to Conservatives, ALL of them would have ended up with the same results even if every single NDP supporter had "voted strategically" for the Liberal option.

Working with Blake Desjarlais has been the greatest honour of my life so far.
While a loss is still a loss and this is going to hurt for a very long time, I’m proud of what we did in Edmonton Griesbach and that he gave a voice to so many people who had never felt represented before he was their MP.

It is a tight race between Blake and Kerry, and it would be truly heartbreaking (and completely unnecessary) to lose the incredible representative we have in Blake. I'm really excited to see so much support for a truly deserving candidate who has done an incredible amount of work to earn it 🧡

So many politicians opt to disengage from community and dissapear from view, @blakedesjarlais.bsky.social has been tireless in standing up for our communities alongside us in our riding, and in parliament! Let's not swap that for Kerry Diotte please! 😭 #cdnpoli
Edmonton Griesbach, let's vote for Blake Desjarlais again. Not only is he the strategic vote, he is the best vote if you want an engaged, responsive, intelligent MP to represent you.
I'm using the smartvoting.ca analysis to vote for @blakedesjarlais.bsky.social .
The NDP is within the Margin of Error, and Blake has done a good job representing the riding in the last session.
Plus, it makes for one less of PP's buddies in the House of Commons.

It's been "just this one time" for three elections now--the Liberal government has had TEN YEARS to enact the electoral reform they PROMISED Canadians in 2015. I hope you can understand why people are tired of this.

He is an extremely strong candidate, so please don't let anyone lie to you & tell you that *he* is the one splitting the vote.

And if you want the Liberals to form government, one of the worst things you could do *in this riding* would be to vote for the Liberal candidate--it'll split the vote and hand the seat to the Conservative candidate. Why give your biggest competition an extra seat?

This is great messaging. To be clear, a vote for Blake *is* the strategic vote in Edmonton Griesbach.
The NDP in Edmonton Griesbach have a new mailer with an anti-vote splitting message.
NDP MP Blake Desjarlais defeated Conservative Kerry Diotte by 1500 votes in 2021. It’s a rematch in this election and it could be a close race.
