@hbardell1 @GiantsOfSF_NY @mynamesnotgordy This was our 'moment of silence' at the local park. The small plaque in the ground is a tribute to those that sacrificed during the Second World War. We hope by next year it will be placed on a rock and given the prominence and respect it deserves.

I can't even imagine the prospect of Canadians turning their backs and rejecting a gov't that supported them for 18 months during a once in a lifetime pandemic. What did the CPC do for you other than disrupt and complain. #cdnpoli #Elxn44 #VoteLiberal.

Wrong. Chandra was DQ'd because he went on a trip to India in 2024 & met Modi. That's a no go for a backbencher who needs permission from Global Affairs.
Wow, CBC saying that Carney is gonna run in Nepean. They literally DQ’d Chandra Arya, an MP since 2015, so Carney could run. That’s real cold (and maybe a little entitled).

Sept 28th marks the 11th Anniversary of Pierre Trudeau's death. Oct 2nd marks the birthday of PMJT's brother Michel, who tragically died in 1998. It seems personal sorrow & quiet contemplation away from Ottawa is too much to ask from #CDNmedia.

Enough with the 'poor' Pierre & Ana moving nonsense. He dragged his kids from coast to coast & used them in photo ops. He didn't care that one of those children has 'autism'. Lights, strangers and crowds are not good for them. So yes they can move into a rental till school ends.
