The BC CONservatives need a reminder that mill closures and job losses in BC forestry sector while they were in office were a disaster. The BC CON's lost 30,000 jobs and 70 mills closed. They really need to sit down and shut up. #bcpoli thetyee.ca/Analysis/201...

Reform UK could win a majority government with only 30 percent of the vote.
That is how distorted UK democracy has become under first past the post. Canada should take note.
Proportional representation means real majority rule. It is time to demand change

One thing I've learned from the Internet is that a lie needs 0% proof to be believed, but the truth requires thousands of pages of proof and still won't be believed.

Sounds good, right?
Except it turns out Meta accepted $300,000 in new ads from the Epoch Times that targeted Canadians.

When regimes fall, the cost is massive.
Danielle Smith and Scott Moe are flirting with separatism and MAGA tactics—just as authoritarianism crumbles down south.
