(1/6) There may a clue here about what actually happened between the former Attorney-General @Puglaas and the PMO when she asserts solicitor-client privilege as a reason not to comment further on the SNC-Lavalin affair. #onpoli #cdpoli #SNCLavalin
Former AG Jody Wilson-Raybould says she's bound by 'solicitor-client privilege,' won't comment on SNC-Lavalin matter:

Canadian "journalist": check out my list of Jews
NEW: I created a database containing profiles of 206 Canadians who have served in the Israeli military. This is the largest such collection of names and profiles in Canada, by far, and is a major expansion on the past version. https://t.co/ckZtCi27Q9

Watch my friend @cvangeyn's appearance on @TheSocialCTV from today. She discusses her new children's book, Maple's Garden, which teaches kids about the importance of free speech. I ordered a copy and it's excellent. It's never too early for kids to learn about civil liberties!
It was a pleasure to be on CTV's The Social to talk about why freedom of speech matters, and how to discuss this right with our children. I was delighted to talk about my new kids book, Maple's Garden: a Canadian free speech story Order here: https://t.co/5DJIpdxEBf

By the definition of Canada's favourite TikTok "journalist", those in Canada who are denied bail before trial (who are "legally innocent"), like Tamara Lich, are hostages
All of the Israelis held by Hamas are called “hostages,” including the IDF soliders. All the Palestinians released, though, are “prisoners,” including the many victims of Israel’s widespread practice of arbitrary detention -- meaning they are legally innocent, detained without

Educators should not abuse our national anthem to advance their political and ideological goals in schools. The province should end this divisive behaviour by amending the Education Act to require that the mandatory daily singing of O Canada be only in English or French.
#REPORT: On the second anniversary of the Oct. 7th massacre, Earl Haig Secondary School in Toronto chose to broadcast O Canada in Arabic.

I posted a video last October 7. In it, I encouraged Canadians to use this solemn anniversary to decry antisemitism wherever it rears itself in our institutions and society broadly, and in so doing promote Canadian values of freedom, openness, liberalism, and tolerance - from

Those of us opposing the Liberals' expansion of so-called MAiD ought to stop using terms like "medical assistance in dying", a term demanded by proponents because it depersonalises and obfuscates that this procedure is: - Euthanasia - Assisted suicide https://t.co/LVLsN3visq

The edge cases around medical assistance in dying are leaving unnerving questions

The real issue is that one of these heels is wearing a Yankees cap!
Is this what Mark Carney means by building a safer, stronger, better Canada? Because this is the capital he's helping to destroy. Goodnight, Canada.

TikTok "journalist" wonders why multiple large media companies fired her, given her inability to fact-check
This is foul and horrifying. They’re willing to treat Greta like this, knowing her reach and voice. Now think of how they must treat detained Palestinians. Free the Palestinian hostages.

TikTok journalist: it's NBD that, like, arsonists have, like, attacked dozens of Canadian churches in, like, the last few years
WATCH: In a now deleted livestream, far-left "journalist" Rachel Gilmore laughs and sips wine while talking about churches being burned down, saying that the attacks are "complex" and exaggerated.

British PM: "illegal immigration is a crisis of our government's own making, so we must impose a digital ID on law-abiding Britons"
I know you're worried about the level of illegal migration into this country. Digital ID is another measure to make it tougher to work illegally here, making our borders more secure. Ours is a fairer Britain, built on change, not division.

NDP: we oppose monarchies, dynasties, and aristocracies NDP leadership candidate: my qualifications for NDP leader are that my father and grandfather both served as NDP leaders
Canada's true crisis is the everyday emergency of just trying to get by in an impossible economy. I’m running for NDP leader so we can transform a system rigged for the rich—together. We need a government that serves the many, not the money. Join in. https://t.co/VIM2jcgmSt

Glad the Ontario government is moving forward with a photo radar ban. It should also declare an amnesty on any outstanding fines imposed on drivers.

PM Mark Carney, Sept. 21, 2025: "Canada recognises the State of Palestine" PM Mark Carney, Sept. 22, 2025: Canada and its allies may invade newly-recognised Palestine to remove one of its governments (while we condemn Israel for trying to do the same)
This is insane. Why is it Canada's job to invade Gaza and disarm Hamas?

With abundant natural resources, and security provided by 3 oceans and the United States, it is solely a political choice for Canada to have sclerotic growth
With today's new population estimate, we can update Canada's real GDP per capita series. Real GDP per capita *declined* by 0.97% (annualized) between the 1st and 2nd quarter of 2025. Real GDP per capita was higher in 2019Q2 than 2025Q2. No economic growth in 6 years.

To be clear, this Liberal MP refers to our Ministry of Foreign Affairs now claiming that Tel Aviv is in "Palestine", as opposed to "correcting" the decision to recognise a state headed by the leader of the PLO, several of whose members are banned terrorist entities in Canada.
@BryanPassifiume I have spoken with them. This is going to be quickly corrected.

TikTok journalist: mad that Canada wants Hamas terrorists to return hostages as a condition of recognising a Palestinian state
Canada is also still putting conditions on this recognition of self-determination:
