That @WabKinew is so popular across the political spectrum not just in Manitoba but everywhere is proof that Canadians crave a more pragmatic, communitarian civic nationalism. Imagine how much better our politics would be if both the left and right embraced that more fully

@CTVTheDebate She was our longest reigning Head of State who oversaw immense human progress. The least she deserves is a statue honouring her service

@bruceanderson You voted for this. Keep your complaints to yourself and own it. People like you are why we have a government that can't keep us safe

@JJ_McCullough That civilian control rests with Parliament, not the GG, and we've had many GGs who served in the CAF before. She's also the Colonel of 3 military regiments, which is a legitimate rank in the CAF. Not a "civilian" position.

@Anthony__Koch "Peace for our time" If human history is anything to go off of, superior military power and a willingness to use it when necessary are the only guarantors of anything resembling peace.

Hugh Segal was a Tory's Tory, and his books were some of the first I ever read when my interest in politics really started to peak. His work on basic incomes left a lasting impression on me, suffice it to say... Very sad news tonight. Rest in peace to a happy warrior

Cdn politics has lost its happiest warrior tonight. Hugh Segal's lifelong call for decency in our politics is at once a look back at what was, and a hope for what can be. I am heartbroken that I didn't get to say goodbye, but your ideals live on. Merci, and so much love. #cdnpoli

Here's another unpopular opinion for everyone: Jagmeet may be a champaign socialist who's out of touch with the average Canadian but at least he dresses like a parliamentarian should dress. Attacking him for putting effort into his appearance as a public representative is dumb

J.J. the other day: "why do people hate me all I wanna do is teach people about Canada 😭" J.J. Today: "Let me get basic Canadian history wrong by implying we need to do something that already happened 90 years ago"

Do you think Canada should cut its constitutional ties to the British monarchy?

What in the actual fuck kind of proposal is this?! Should I pull out a handy brochure to give to the person that's got a knife to my neck if I'm ever in such a situation?!? Can these unserious people crawl back into their holes of irrelevance?

When asked about the increasing violence in Toronto, Mayoral candidate Mitzie Hunter calls for an advertising campaign and marketing program. Candidate Josh Matlow says it's a health issue and the city needs to make sure the perpetrators are well.

Just want to point out that Han Dong's threat seems to have gone nowhere because Global still has its stories up.
