This is still the best reading of all this I’ve seen. I have no idea who this is-but (I think) he’s got it.

Over the years, Canadian PMs have angered the Americans by staying out of the Vietnam war, accepting US draft dodgers, recognizing China, fighting apartheid and staying out of the second Iraq war. It's the Canadian tradition.
A. Either we are a country with independent foreign policy or a vassal state. Canadians have made it clear throughout our history which they prefer. B. Trump says a lot of things.

I want everyone to read the comments under this post. The awful comments are indicative of why sexual violence is so pervasive. This woman was gang raped and 60% of the comments are attacking her for ruining her rapists lives.
I’ve avoided a lot of the dialogue on the sexual assault trial against the hockey players but I’ll just say, as a survivor and as someone who experienced how bad the justice system can be, I can’t think of a braver human being than EM. Sending you love and healing

Maybe it’s time for the NDP to return to socialism:

There’s been a strange summer-long silence from the NDP. Last week, after the near terror event in Strathroy, they should have been vocal on Bill C-51, the terror bill. The Liberals looked paralyzed...

The first thing @MarkJCarney needs to do is nationalize our media. No more American funded media. Canadian law is SUPPOSED to limit foreign ownership of newspapers to 25% but under a loophole (thank Stephen Harper) Postmedia is 97% American owned. This is Canada's largest

Canada's largest newspaper chain, Postmedia, is owned by an American hedge fund headed up by a wealthy donor to Donald Trump.

Hey Alberta!! What say we have ANOTHER referendum? This one to gauge just how much support the UCP actually still retain? Hey @ABDanielleSmith how about this one?

2. She asked Trump people to delay tariffs to help Poilievre in the campaign to come: "So I would hope that we could put things on pause is what I’ve told administration officials. Let’s just put things on pause so we can get through an election.”

@RosieBarton I reported your conduct during yesterday’s interview with our Prime Minister to the CBC ombudsman. You were unprofessional, totally partisan, completely biased and virtually called the PM a liar. You cannot contain your Conservatism. CBC needs to find a replacement for you.

I thought it might be helpful to share the exact sequencing and patterns of our polling releases since early January . The LPC recovery was first noted January 9th . Before the end of January the 25pt. CPC lead had evaporated. LPC in lead in mid Feb. LPC in majority Mar. 5th and

What's striking about capitalist civilization is that it has no real direction. There's no vision for social progress, no commitment to improving human welfare or ecology. All we get is the chaos of profit-oriented production and accumulation as the world burns around us.

Your regular reminder that we willingly just threw this away, in great part because non-Canadian owned media got bored with covering him, after 9 years, and started beating the drum for a fresher model. Please, change media ownership laws back to require Canadian ownership.

Ok but why are we “about to lose one of the great, if not the greatest, Prime Ministers we've ever had”, Jen? Other than that a bunch of Lib MPs widdled on their shoes over polls owned by conservative image management firms of course? Polls that have now reversed themselves.
This weekend is going to be very hard on Canadians. We are about to lose one of the great, if not the greatest, Prime Ministers we've ever had 😥 On Sunday, we will find out who our new Liberal leader will be, and Justin Trudeau will step down. Thank you PM Trudeau 🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦

Trudeau: What he wants is to see a total collapse of the Canadian economy. Because that will make it easier to annex us. First of all, that's never going to happen. We will never be the 51st state.

1/ Donald Trump may be aiming to annex the Great Lakes – and possibly south-eastern Ontario in a maximalist scenario – and kick Canada out of NORAD, judging by first-hand accounts of talks between Canada and the Trump Administration. ⬇️
