In no uncertain terms, Ms Proudfoot in today’s @theglobeandmail.com justly calls out petulant piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre for the lies he tells about who’s at fault for the challenges 🇨🇦Canada faces.

Vicious authoritarianism built on a pretext of shameless lies under the cover of scolding Christianity.

Cover of the classic children's book Frog And Toad Are Friends.

Drawing of Toad, a brown toad, sitting on a bench, dressed in a green jacket and slacks. He is reading a book to his friend Frog, a green frog dressed in a brown jacket and slacks. They are surrounded by green plants and mushrooms. There is a silver Caldecott Medal in the corner.

Text has been altered from original. It reads
Fiftieth Anniversary
Frog and Toad Are Antifa
by Arnold Lobel

Noem doesn’t think it is free speech, as protected by the constitution? Oh right, only MAGA gets ‘free’ speech.

More fossil fuel projects are not OK @mark-carney.bsky.social
We want a livable planet. We want money supporting renewables development. And FFS stop pandering to the fucking dictator of the usa! Do better for all of our sakes Carney!

It’s frustrating. Right wing policies and far right bigotry will not benefit the people or the planet. Enabling far right policies means almost everyone will be screwed in the end. Why don’t we all understand this?

It keeps looping back to the Russians, doesn’t it?

Ugh, that Canadian Lauren Southern - she’s awful. Not surprised that her name came up. Here’s why she’s a problem:

Hell No! - do not give these conservative premiers more leeway to deny us our rights. Danielle Smith wants to use it to enact draconian ideological laws oppressing LGBTQ Albertans that are being challenged in court.

PM must give a Hard NO to every one of these assholes @markcarneyforpm.bsky.social

Two of the most common climate misconceptions I see, even among knowledgeable folks, are that (1) most people aren't worried about climate change, and (2) if they were, they'd act.

Not true! Data show (1) most people are worried, but (2) they won’t act if they don’t know what to do-and most don’t.

We have billions worth of private sector & First Nations led projects, that are ready to go and will create thousands of jobs.
Alberta’s fictional bitumen pipeline achieves none of these things. #cdnpoli

We will not be fooled by bribes. Alberta parents are not stupid. The UCP is failing our children - nothing can hide that fact.

Looks like Dani’s government is taking a page from Doug ford. Bribe the parents instead of using the money to benefit education and ultimately the kids.
