As Donald Trump stays home because he didn't want to get wet I'm proud that our Prime Minister @JustinTrudeau understands the Canadian duty of remembrance:.

Dear @JustinTrudeau .No public official goes skiing on November 11 because we show respect to the veterans. On this day of reconciliation, you don't skip town and go to the beach because its about showing respect to survivors. This is not a holiday its a day of atonement.

Today I met with UN rapporteur @FranceskAlbs.at Parliament on the ongoing genocide in Gaza and abuses in the Palestinian territory. I work with my NDP colleagues to push Canada to take a stronger position for ceasefire, human rights and aid to end the deliberate starvation.

In 15 years of Parliament I have seen all kinds of scandals. I have seen political soap operas and lots of bad behavior. But I have never seen two women vilified and kicked out of their caucus for standing up for the rule of law. They deserve better.@Puglaas @janephilpott.

Here's a simple proposition. The Russian Embassy in Canada is at 285 Charlotte Street in Ottawa. Why don't we rename it Zelensky Blvd? .Because from this moment on Volodymyr Zelensky has redefined Russia's relationship with the world. @cmckenney @JimWatsonOttawa @dianedeans

Listen Asshat, .Your lies about Remembrance Day were juvenile. Don't double down. How about you just shut it for 24 hours? .Show some respect for people who take Nov. 11 seriously. Btw. let us know when you have passed a security clearance. For the good of the country.
What an absolute disgrace that so many woke activists & authorities used Remembrance Day to push their divisive and radical causes, denigrating our history and the brave military members who sacrificed for it. We are a proud country with a proud history, and everyone who lives.

Crack is not legal in Canada. Hunting rifles aren't being confiscated. As for plastic straws. seriously? .Is that the best thing this guy can come up? .He has no policy positions. He lies. Lies. Lies. And when you call him out, his supporters send death threats.
Legalizing crack. Banning plastic straws. Welcome to Trudeau’s wacko world. Sign to bring home the Canada we know and love:

The damage to Jasper is not simply a local, regional or provincial disaster, it is a disaster for our nation. And yet, as the planet burns Conservative politicians across Canada continue to play stupid games while leaving at risk regions without protection.

At 5:29 PM Parliamentary security sent a message to all MPs warning about threats, personal security and possible plans to target MPs at their family homes or target staff. It was an unprecedented warning. 45 minutes later @erinotoole decided to throw gas on the fire.

I ask @AndrewScheer to call on his caucus members to refrain from race-baiting attacks at a time of unprecedented pandemic. This slur against the Chief Medical officer is vile. Dr. Tam serves the people of Canada. She deserves better than this.
Dr. Theresa Tam, Canada’s Chief Public Health Officer, has failed Canadians. Dr. Tam must go! Canada must remain sovereign over decisions. The UN, the WHO, and Chinese Communist propaganda must never again have a say over Canada's public health!.#cdnpoli.

The world watches as Kamala Harris brings inspiration and hope to US politics. Meanwhile Canadian discourse is driven by a seriously creepy dude who will say anything no matter how false and ridiculous. So far he's had a free pass. But Canadians are better than this idiocy.
@CBCNews @CTVNews @globalnews @globeandmail This is not normal. This is terrifying and dangerous. @PierrePoilievre has gone from opposition party leader to full-blown Qanon-style conspiracy theorist. Canadian media needs to talk about this

I have seen liberal supporters hint at all manner of odious reasons in attacking @puglaas for not going along with the CEOs of SNC-lavalin. But having @Sheila_Copps play the race card is a step much too far. This is an ugly moment for the liberals and for Canada.
Wilson Raybould would have looked for legal solutions if 9000 aboriginal jobs were at stake. She would have been open to listening to input.

It's hard to keep up with the rage howlings of the guy who lives in a 19-room mansion. As Canada burns he rants about a ban on plastic straws. He is pissed that interest rates are coming down after spending a year blaming Justin for interest rates going up. He offers nothing.
BREAKING: Bank of Canada forced to try and rescue Canada’s collapsing economy which is shrinking faster than any other G7 country after 9 years of NDP-Liberals. Trudeau’s inflationary spending sent interest rates soaring & families paying more for their mortgage. Now, people are.

Imagine if the students at @Ucalgary had thought to bring Fuck Trudeau flags, weapons and demands take on the World Economic Forum maybe Calgary cops would have given them hugs. Instead they were simply asking for an end to the killing of children in Gaza. The world is watching.
Horrifying scenes from @UCalgary which called the police on protestors within the first day. They allegedly used tear gas and shot paintballs at protestors. Shame on UofC. Also, same police that arrested a Muslim man in November 2023 for saying ‘from the river to the sea’*

We need to know if offshore bot farms from Russia or other locations are fanning Pierre Poilievre's rage tours across Northern Ontario. A parliamentary investigation would be a good way to look into this.
A committee parliament should be looking into whether or not Canadian tax dollars, through members of Parliament budgets and other sources, are paying for these farms.

Who paid for the offshore bot accounts spreading disinformation about Poilievre's Northern Ontario tour?.Is this a dry run for an online disinformation campaign in the upcoming federal election?.This needs to be investigated.
My bet is Poilievre pays for these accounts to post fake info. He’s proven he’s a liar, now it seems he’s a cheater, too.

Alex Jones is a despicable human being who will say anything, do anything to stir dissent and hatred. But he does have a good eye for those of like mind. Is Poilievre going to disavow this hate monger?.This is the face of Canada's Conservative party in 2024.
Huge congrats to Pierre Poilievre for securing the coveted Alex Jones endorsement!!!!. It can’t have been easy to dogwhistle conspiracy theories often enough to clinch the support of a Sandy Hook shooting denier, but my god, Poilievre did it.

Pierre Poilievre crossed a line with his vicious attack on a front line nurse. His attacks on doctors trying to keep people alive in the opioid crisis led to death threats. These are front line advocates working for solutions. They deserve better than political hate campaigns.

Doug Ford trashed Ontario Place. He shut down the Science Centre (prime real estate for developers). He has trashed health care. Now he is targeting the LCBO - which brings $2.5 bil into Ontario coffers every year. He is selling this province off like a cheap grifter.
Wake up Ontario. Learn the facts of Doug Ford & LCBO. Learn the facts on OSC & Ontario Place. Every move Ford makes moves public tax dollars into corporate profits. Read, learn, educate yourself. Two things Ford counts on; apathy & ignorance. Don't give it to him.

This is what a political arsonist looks like up close. When real leadership was needed to de-escalate this occupation Candice saw political gain. "We need to turn this into the PM's problem". She turned it into Canada's problem.
I'm disturbed & saddened by what we are seeing today in Ottawa. This situation was created by the PM & his desire to divide Canadians. It’s time for MPs to return to the House tomorrow to stop the overreach by this government & restore unity, wholeness & hope back to our nation.
