RCMP say the Trans-Canada Highway is currently closed between the cloverleaf (Pitts Memorial Drive/Outer Ring Road) and Exit 39 (Foxtrap Access Road), as emergency crews respond to a wildfire near Paddy’s Pond.

The journalist in Poilievre’s viral "apple" video feels "a substantial degree of satisfaction that Pierre Poilievre lost."

"Canadians saw through his three-word grade-school rhyming, and his toxicity and bullying nature which points more to a tearing down, not a unifying of our country."

Kathleen Monk torches the CPC's campaign: They had $10M+ more than any other party, a polling lead that was exceedingly strong, yet their platform was basically non-existent. They had candidates that hurt them time and time again, and a leader that had to be pulled from their own ads.

There’s always a choice and that choice begins with words--naysayers serve to bog us down with negative, dark messaging & self-interest, wanting us to act in fear... positive people want us to see our future prospects and the greater good, wanting us to act with hope... #ElbowsUp Canada! #Elxn45

So Poilievre says no more tents in public spaces, they will be arrested. I guess only big trucks with loud horns are allowed to camp in public places.

Let me get this straight - Poilievre's Conservatives claim that Carney is "Just like Trudeau", and then they run their own campaign ads featuring Stephen Harper, who most Canadians are still trying to forget. #cdnpoli
